 and Nichols on
 Bat-COcOa Card

Hartford, Oct 23.-Bat Batta- limo fights the fourth and what shapes as the hardest fight of his current comeback campaign when he battles Cocoa Kid of New Ha. ven at Foot Guard hall tonight. Cocoa, a fast and elusive target and fast puncher, will have height, weight and reach on Bat and he Is beyond conjecture much the better boxer.
 Battalino will depend upon ag- gressiveness, the better punch and his great stamina to beat the dusky one in this ten-round tussle.
 The history of all of Battalino's bouts has been the story of uphill battling.
 Slow Starter
 Invariably, Bat has been out pointed in the early rounds, only to bang his way in most cases to win in the closing stages.
 Body attack Is hs forte and he will be shooting at Cocoa's rnid- riff tonight; that Is sure.
 In his last bout with Feldman,. Battalino showed the best form of his comeback bid. He was fast and strong and punching better than he has since the days he sat on the featherweight throne.
 His big problem will be naneuv- ering Cocoa into position for the New Haven youth is phantom. recalling the shifty Kid Chocolate when he was having his good days. This bout offers an interesting contrast between a rough hard hitting battler and smooth, clever boxer.

At the end of last season he res tired. But with the death of Ed Thorp, another outstanding referee this summer, Walter R. okeson, chairman of the national football rules committee and selector of eastern football officiais, prevailed upon O'Brien to assume Thorpe's assignments. This O'Brien agreed to do.
 Thorp's schedule included two games involving Brown university. fn 1888 Brown claimed that de- cisions by O'Brien as referee acc counted for tis defeat by Yale, 14 to 6. O'Brien claims it was a pro- test by Brown which led Okeson to accept his resignation" this year.
 Bad Business
 On August, ? last O'Brien re- ceived from Okeson a list of ex- pense allowances which included no hotels or taxis, and called for compulsory use of weekend excur- sion rates on trains to Pittsburgh, Pa. O'Brien then requested per- mission to turn in expense accounts covering his actual expenses.
 On August 13 he received from Okeson the following reply.
 Dear Eddie: have' your letter stating you wish to be allowed to travel when and how you please and be compensated for the actual expenses. I can readily understand your position, but unfortunately I am not permitted to make an ex- ception to our rules.
 T have come to the conclusion had no right to ask you to do something which means such ex- pense and incohvenience to you. I am withdrawing my request that you officiate this fall and have can. celled the appointments sent you k. ."

CROSS CAPTAIN
 MAY NOT PLAY AGAINST COLGATE
Buzz Harvey in Hospital :; Several Injuries Weak
 en Crusaders

Worcester, Oct 23-Holy Cross in it's main big home game at- traction with Andy Kerr's Colgate Red Railers from the Chenango valley here Saturday, may be with out the services of Capt. Buzz Harvey, brilliant left tackle who is in St. vincent's hospital tonight as a result of injury received in the Harvard game. The big, hurley Crusader captain was sent there for observation. There is some doubt as to his ability to play in the Colgate game. Harvey is not alone among the injured as a re- suit of the hard Harvard game. Len Avery, who played a bangun game at left end; Bob Curley, sop homore right end; Nick Morris and Ed ("Minute Man") Britt are all nursing minor hurts.
 Harvey, Britt and Avery are the question marks to date for this weeks all-important battle. It Is not expected that any of them will see action.
 Dr Anderson in his usual Mon- day talk to the boys tackled the sins of omission and commission He was impressed with some i'm. provement in the game put up by the Crusaders. He singled out the advancement against the aerial game, hut also was not satisfied with the teams running game. This will come under close supervision this week as he plans a scrimmage session tomorrow in an effort to improve timing and polish off 8 bit more on blocking. While it is almost certain that Anderson will have to make some changes in his starting team this week end because of injury to sev. eral of his first-string men, every thing was not all dour on the hill this afternoon when Anderson worked the squad lightly.
 Len Kuziora, brilliant sophomore right halfback, and Jos Yablonsky sophomore fullback, both out oi the Harvard game because of in. juries last week, were pronounced | fit and ready yesterday and will be ready when called upon in this | weeks game,
 The seating capacity of Fittor field has been increased by 5000 according to announcement from the athletic office today. Bleachei seats have been put up at the open
 end of the field as well as along the race track, to accommodate thai
 many more, bringing it up te
 2S,000.
 In yesterdays signal practice
 Anderson had David Gavin, 200
 pound Dorchester boy, running al
 left tackle to replace Harvey. Ht
 had Paul Brogan at left end in. stead of Len Avery and Ecio Luci. ano. sophomore guard, replacing
 Phil Flanagan, veteran left guard
 Tony Morandos was at center, Jin

Competing against thousands of New England football fms, W. J. Karaban, fullback and captain of the Brown university varsity, fore casted the correct score of the Yale-Penn game, and thereby won fifty dollars in a novel contest con- ducted by Neal O'Hara as part of his radio football program. Captain Karaban was one of fourteen persons who said that Yale would beat Penn by a score of IA to 6. He took first honors be- cause he gave the best reasons for his forecast, in the opinion of the judges, who include Neal O'Hara and other eminent football author- ities.
 Neal O'Hara, veteran newspaper humorist and star of the kilocycles, has developed an interesting game of scorecasting by means of which his radio audience may try its skill at guessing the scores of the lead ing games each week. He is on the air from z to 7:15 every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday over sta- ton WEEI, Boston; WTIC, Hart ford; WTAG, oWrcester and WAR, Providence.

Away from the monotony of everyday clothing" is the modern cry. This spring men found that rough, colorful fabrics of distinc- tive pattern were handsome and becoming.
 Fall will find these same prefer ences further expressed in rich, new colors and dominant patterns. Blues and browns win be espe- cially in demand. Channel stripes. Hangar checks and Graz plaids will be very popular as they read fly answer the new demand for comfort in clothes.
 Pattern will speak with moro emphasis than ever before. Con- spicuous or subdued, colorful or conservative pattern is the outstanding characteristic of the new clothing fabrics.
 Fashionably dressed men will continue to wear rugged materials as these lend themselves best to easy fitting construction. Broad shouldered, softly constructed gar ulents must be made of materials that will drape ,and hard finished, smooth fabrics are i'll suited to this decidedly modern type of construc- fion.
