Miller, Teens Win Again.

N the supporting card, which was
featured by Baby Miller's six
round technical knockout over Angelo
Manner, q featherweight from Wor-
cestef. Mass. Manner, substituting
for Al Ragone of New York, had
neither the ability nor the experience
to cope with Miller, but he battled
gamely.
Miller, . brown-skinned Seminole
Cuban from Key West, dropped Man
ner twice in the first round, once in
the second, and twice more in the
sixth, both for counts Of nine. After
gaining his feet for the second time
IN this heat Referee Hughes decided
that Angelo had taken enough and
stopped the affair. Miller weighed
131 to 1913 for Manner.
Joe Teens, a Greek stable mate of
Miller, also pounded his way to a SIX
round decision, outpointing Al Gil
lette OF Brooklyn. Teens went to the
canvas for no count in the first round
and evened matters by momentarily
deering Gillette in the third. From
then on Teens was in command.
A knock down in the fourth round
gave Elmer Bezenah, a Cincinnati
welterweight, q six-round decision
over Honey Boy Snipes, while two
knockdoWn in the second round
enabled Mike Easter, Florida welter,
to win q unanimous four round de-
cision from Young Firp0, a courageous
Filipino.

THE really hot lad in the Rock
Greek Park uptown" tourney,
urI,inI sta rtad today is Don

THE really hot lad in the Rock
Greek Park uptown" tourney,
which started today, Is Don
O'Bryan, who halls from
Kentucky, and is former holder OF
the public links title of that State.
That is, if you can believe the lads
who have seen him play.
"O'Bryan Is the Iad to beat" said
Claude Rippy, the titleholder, as he
zoomed a booming tee shot down the
first fairway today. He is good
enough to take any one in this field.
I looked him over in the national last
year and he Is hot stuff. He can
win almost any tournament be enters"
Tall and 1.-THE, like Rippy, O'Bryan
Is not only q lengthy hitter, but Is
poison around the putting green. He
will be no bargain to the Rippys, the
Connellys, the Bowers, and the
Sharkeys and Burnetts. Match play
in the tourney starts tomorrow, and
will wind up Thursday.
Incidentally the tourney brought
out two former public links kings in
Bradley H. CTed) Burrows. and
George Malloy, the latter the little
red-hsaded golfer who won two years
ago.
WY LAWSON LITTLE. Jr., the
" puckish-faced golfer who
sports the American and
British simon-pure championships,
was in New Jersey today facing q
serious series of tune-up matches,
after having put over an unsuccessful
bloomer on q trio Of local lads ct
Indian Spring yesterday.
Unknown to any one but . pro who
has been travelling with the champion,
Lawson came forth with the modern
edition Of the old jack-rabbit ball in
the exhibition match at Indian Spring
yesterday, outranging the long hitting
Roland Mackenzie, George Diden-
baugh and Roger Peacock by from 10
to SO yards with O pill that bores into
the wind like termite through white
pine.
But his smartneSs didn't get him
anywhere against the chipping and
putting Of the Diffenbaugh-MacKen-
zie combination, who won from Pea
cock and Little in well-played match
by up. Diffenbaugh produced most
Of the fireworks, winning individual
scoring honors with a par II.
Lawson said nothing to any one as
he produced q 1.62 ball, the old jack
rabbit sphere eutlawed by the United
States Golf Association In 1880. He
had the balls imported from Canada,
and wanted to get some practice with
the small, heavy pill, he said. because
that is the hall he will play next
month in defense Of his British am
ateur crown.
But the pop-eyed gallery Of about
800 links fans who hung on the shots
of the twin title holder, naaryeled Is
they watched him easily knock past
the best efforts Of the other three
all Of whom can do . bit Of apple
knocking themselves.
On the fifth, Lawson settled his big
brogans and walloped one out past the
300-yard mark, playing his second
shot to q bunker alongside the green
with q niblck, while the rest Of the
boys used fairly long irons. On the
seventh, against o strong headwind,

BATTERSDOHERTY
FOR EASY VICTORY
Neither Likely to Figure Ex-
tensively in Future Ring
Plans Here.
BY FRANCES e. STAN.

OCA1NG HO\iEH BEN
~ NARD probably will whip
no more world champions,
but the 2s-year-old Flint
feAtherweight promises to be o very
unpopular chap with the local gang OF
126-pound species pugilistica If he con-
tinues to hang around these diggings.
At least that was the impression as
Bernard. armed with the punch Of q
welterweight, polished of game Joe
Doherty last night at the Washington
Auditorium. Roger failed to knock
Doherty out, though many had proph-
esied he would, but that hardly was
the veterans fault. He bounced
enough crushing clouts off Doherty's
ribs to fell many a less courageous
and tough scrapper.
It was, however, a disappointing
fght from a financial angle and this
may result in the easing of the minds
of Petey Sarron, Joe Rivers, ct al. De-
spite Doherty's previous victory over
frankie Wolfram and glowing tales of
Bernard's punching ability, only 933
s,nackers were drawn at the box Office
and a crowd of only 807 customers
sat in. Apparently neither Doherty
nor Bernard means much to Washing
ton fandom. Doherty's future here, of
course, is definitely doubtful now, and
Rernard's is by no means bright.
Body Beating Lesser Evil.
TT WAS q good scrap, though, as
clashes between two body punch
ers 60. Both fought the same
style of battle, Doherty employing q
crouching, aggressive stance, chiefly
in sen-defense. On the few times he
attempted to box and stab his two
listed foe the Brooklyn boy found him
self catching whistling hooks on the
chin. Inside he took a terrific body
lacing, but it seemed the lesser Of two
evils.
The decision at the end of the 10
rounds was not unanimous, although
there was no doubt as to the winner
in the minds of most onlookers.
Referee Denny Hughes and Charlie
Dunn. one Of the judges, voted for
Bernard. while DR.. o. U. Singer, local
A. A. u. official making his bow as
q judge, cast his ballot for Doherty.
The Star scoresheet credited Bernard
with seven rounds, Doherty with two
and one was called even.
Both boys weighed 129 pounds.

Doherty Opens With Rush.

DoFERTY opened in speedy fash
- ion, jabbing to q clear-cut
margin in the first round, but
Bernard. warming slowly to his task,
held his own In the second and then
really turned loose his big guns in the
third. In this round Doherty was
dropped to the canvas for a no-count.
Tt was the only knockdown Of the
fight.
The sixth was the only other round
H. which Doherty seemed to have the
upper hand. Bernardis steaming body
punches were hurting but he became
careless in the sixth and sunk one OF
his rights to the groin. Doherty was
not hurt but, on the contrary, seemed
to arouse himself and would have won
the round anyway.
That was his last big bid, though.
Bernard. too strong in the clinches
and too accurate at long range when
Doherty chose to stand of, handily
took the last round heats.

AIling Loses Power
 ByAmended d Measure
Addition to Bill Gives Hickey and Wheeler Sole Rights Amendment Made Following Considerable Objection

ported out Q. month ago giving all county detectives the power to arr rest in their respective counties. The bill passed in the senate but was recommitted to the judiciary committee following failure of the house to concur.
 The new bill coming out yester- day, therefore, is q compromise one and is assured of passage, t is understood. It gives only the Hart ford and Windham county deteo' lives aresting power and their jur- isdiction applies only to their re- spective counties.
 Hickey and Wheeler are now deputy sheriffs as we'll as county detectives and in this dual capacity can make arrests. However, new high shreiffs, go into office in their respective counties next month and they will be stripped of their ti- ties of deputy sheriff. Therefore. they would not be able to make arrests, hence the request for the passage of the bill in the legislu- ture giving them arresting powers.
 The other county detectives of the state, including Detective AlI- ing of this city, did not ask for such powers, they being content to seek the cooperation of the police departments when making arrests. Hickey, however, has been noted as A '.lone wolf" in his investigations.

Reported Attack on Form CT Manager Not "In-
 cident of Strike"

Waterbury's striking truck driv. CTS today were exonefated by pol
 lice of any part in the attack which George Mccarthy, of IFS Capitol avenue, former truck com. pany trafsic manager, claimed he suffered on Scoviil street after hay
 ing been refused admittance to
 q meeting of union drivers at
 Building Trades hail early yester- day morning. Capt. Richard Le- roy announced at headquarters this morning that Investigation directed
 by Capt. Frank Cutting had rec
 veaied that Mccarthy had been
 struck after an argument in an
 East Main street tavern.
 A local newspaper reported yeS-
 terday morning that Mccarthy
 claimed he had been set upon by .
 half dozen men on Scovtil street after having attempted to enter a
 meeting of the striking drivers and been told that he would not be ad.
 mitted. Mccarthy made no cofn- piaint to police, and oficials of the drivers union denied absolutely
 yesterday that any of their men had taken part in the reported at- tack or had left the meeting hall
 after Mccarthy.
 Capt. Leroy stated that the iri- vestigation made by Capt. Cutting
 had fully substantiated. the driv- ers' claims that none of their nuin-
 Der had attacked Mccarthy. Police
 today marked the incident closed,
 satisfied of the authenticity of
 their information that Mccarthy had received two head decorations after tavern dispute and not after
 any street attack.

Legislation establishing g mini4 mum quality standard for grade B milk and providing that any milk that cannot meet 1t must be kept out of the fluid milk market was supported before the committee on agriculture of the general assem- ply during the past week by Rich- ard c. Fisher of tine R. '. worden company of this city. Many milk producers and dealers appeared in support of the bill. s}t
 At the hearing H. c. Soest oi Midd1etown caused q, mild sensa- tion when he suggested that grade B raw milk be barred from sale In cities of 16,0o0 population or more and small fafmer.distfibutbfs oi tnilk thereby discouraged. He said that there are about 2,400 dealers in the state and 1,B00 of them sell fewer than 100 quarts q day. He stated that q smaller number of dealers would mean more efficient distribution, a lower price for the consumer, a higher price for the farmer and a narrower spread to the dealers. He added that if the present duplication of services ir milk distribution continues most oi the business will be done by chain stores.

Be. fore the bill was finally passed It was referred back to the coElmit- tee and yesterday afternoon an amended measure came out pro viding arresting powers only for County Detectives Edward J. Hick- ey of Hartford county, and Rowe wheeler of Windham county.
 The bill, as originally intro duced at the outset of the present session of the legislature at the request of Sttae's Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn of Hartford, gave arr resting powers only to County De- tectiva Hickey, his aide. The bill also provided that Hickey could go any place in the state and make arrests.
 Considerable objection was raised to giving Hickey statewide arresting powers. Furthermore, it was contended that if he was to be given arresting powers in his own Hartford county similar au- thority should be given the other county detectives of the state.
 Therefore, the bill was amended by the judiciary committee and re-
