. put G<d6le WILL nave pO QO Quilo a bit more than just talk when he climbs into the West Shore ring tonight for his star bout with Brosseau, as Phil has everything that fighter needs, experience, devastating body puncher, which Is attested to by number of state championships that he has won on pure infighting.
 To-night's prospective thriller will. mark the first time these boys have tangled in anything more damaging than an oral tilt, and marks the successful culmination of ill-fated attempts to match them last winter for a Waterbury ring where the amateur fight fans would have paid fancy prices to see Brosseau and Eagle in action At that time, Eagle wanted no fpart of the champion but he has come along so rapidly in the past year that he figures himself ripe to take Phil into camp.
 Phil the Dude
 Victory for Brosseau tonight will mean a complete new outfit of clothes from admirers, from hat to spats and there is nothing Phil, likes morre than to be pointed out as 8 model we'll dressed young man, hence he will be in there to gain a win, possibly by a knockout, for more than one reason. While not as colorful as Eagle who is a standup fighter, Brosseau wins his important bouts on infighting.
 Smarting under two defeats, one of them a lucky break for his op- ponent. Frankie Angelo, Elm City gym star, will fight Joe Albino of New Britain, in 8 return grudge bout. Albino must have picked up la four-leaf clover when last met Angelo at the Rock, for Frankie was away out in front when cut eye prompted the referee to call halt. From the manner in which Angelo battled Jackie Bain. of Worcester, Mass, on the Police Field day card, Albino would do we'll to bring bicycle.
 Bay State Battlers
 Ed Shapiro will have here to- night four-man team from Wor- ping program which includes also such Connecticut outfits as Hart ford, (two) Bridgeport, Water- town, Windsor Locks, New Bri- tain, Torrington and Waterbury. They will vie with the best battlers that. Mickey Babe" Gibbons of the Elm City gym, has to offer, includ- ing Nathan Mann, Frankie Angelo, Joe Harvey and others.
 Early arrivals will be entertained by Guy Masseilli's 10-piece band with Andy Protano, local radio star, as guest artist. The band will strike up at 2 o'clock and a record crowd Is anticipated.

More came out of the recent east-west series. than a pawnbrok- CTS first look would warrant. Top les of conyersr ion on Long Island patios (and you should see the piazza!) establish the following:
 1-Cecil smith,. riding fool from Texas, does not, sit side-saddlc.
 2-There' will be an east-west world series for years to come, un- less some members of the unr.ed State Polo association get sore at certain other members.
 3 = Devereaux Milburn and Tommy Hitchcock have become names that can be uttered above a whisper even in a remote bunk house on the western plains.
 Some Boy!
 First there was Milburp. Dow agers let their daughters gaze adoringly at this youthful idol of old eastern poIo.. He could ride. he could hit, he wore his jodhpurs jauntily. He was the spirit of polo for years and years.
 Then came Tommy Hitchcock, whose mother, Mrs Tommy Hitch cock, ST. taught a whole genera tion of players their primary les sons Tn the game.
 Now comes the new spirit of polo, with something about it that harks back to Toledo and Dempsey, to Michigan and Willie Heston, to Boston and Babe Ruth. That spirit is expressed in one man-Cecil Smith. a young cowhand who likes beans better than tea, who rides for a living and who uses every F. tv r. Ir.- fok k.r win those old chukkers.
 Smith was the lion of the bis story at Chicago, a story that will creases. Who is the man? Where did he grow?
 From the Panhandle
 To be brief he came up into the picture just like this: he was born in Texas 30 years ago, was discov- cred on horseback and learned to play the game by batting tin cans into trees. It happens that trees are far apart in Texas, so Smith had to hit them hard and accurate ly.
 Eight or 10 years ago somebody who could read told him they played a sort of game like that on Long Island, using certified mallets with which pellet was propelled toward goal.
 When Smith was 18 years old he was a star. but he was not even listed as polo player until 1925 when the U. $. P. A. finally put him on the register, kindly accord ing him a handicap of zero.
 So he took the zero, clucked at his poy and, striking the cipher with a left hook, batted 1t far over the fence for the longest home run the United States Chess and Check CT association ever placed in the archives.
 And now he's champion, and that part of the world which reads with lip-motion is beginning to clamor Kill the umps," at polo games.
 The game hasn't reached the stage where a man sits up all night to be photographed as the first per son in line to sec the opening game of the series, but Smitty has given it a start in that direction.
