BON|CA FAVORED BY LOCAL FANS
Popular Italian Meets Great ChuphistO To-
 morrow Night

Though the Great Chuphisto (whatever that means) has yet to show his classic pan to local mat addicts, 1t is reasonably sure that the customers will be with" Benito Bonica tomorrow night, when the short, stocky and able medical stu dent comes to grips with the Aus trian champion, who has done con- siderable wrestling in the middle west and will begin his eastern in- vasion tomorrow night at Bucking- ham hall in the main bout of a five event program. Chuphisto and Bonica will go an hour and half or less, the idea being to score two falls within that time limit.
 Know Their Stuf
 The Jewish boys, Sammy Monaker and Sammy Cohen ought to please the patrons in their grapples with Gentleman George Mezenieff of Russia and Eddie Dawson, former Olympic team wrestler, some fine wrestling sure to come out of both these bouts. as the contestants are young, strong and of the modern school of matmen, though well drilled in the legitimate holds of the game.
 COmicaI
 Gaffur Kahn of Afghanistan, whose coal-oiled mustachios were the sartorial note of the first two shows in Waterbury will be in town again to try conclusions with a new grappler, Mario Besto of Spain, whose 200 pounds and ham-like claws are in shape for 8 clutch or two at Gaffur's handlebars. The comedy relief of the card will prob- ably center around the bout.
 Light-heavyweights, Pete Sturgis of Albania and Stasis Kalvaitis of Philadelphia open the show in 30 minute bout that will be interesting while 1t lasts.

HOPEv|LLE CLUB IN TWO GAMES
 OVER WEEK END
American Legion of ThOm. aston Here Friday--St.
 Joe Opener Saturday

The Hopeville Community Club Speedboys, winners over the highly touted Hull's Collegians of New Haven, swing into another busy weekend on the basketball surfaces of the Hopeville school arid St. Jo- sephs Hall. Tomorrow night the Speedboys will take on the Amer ican Legion five of Thomaston in the second game of the home and home series. Harry Lynch's cohorts won the first game by two points in a game played a few weeks ago in the Clock Town, in 8 game that was nip and tuck all the way. The Speedboys with their regular line- up in fold after several weeks of injuries and illness expect to take the invaders by comfortable margin and even the series.
 The win in Thomaston by the Legioneers was the first victory that @ team from that town ever was able to eke out against Hopeville, and Manager Ray French expects 1t to be the last on the basketball court.
 The preliminary game starting at 7:30 o'clock brings together the Corsairs Juniors and the Hopeville Juniors in game that should be a thriller from start to finish. The Juniors of the "Ville" have been go- ing along at fast clip of late win- ming five straight games against the best outfits in their class but had their streak stopped in Brook lyn last Saturday night when they were taken over by the St. Joseph Juniors in the second game of a series with that club.
 Between games the drill team of Q local lodge of odd Fellows will put on a half hour of entertain ment. They will be accompanied by their own band. This drill team has for years copped the most hon. ors in the state for its performances.
 Saturday evening the Speedboys will journey to Brooklyn where they will open a series with St. Joseph's Big Five in game which usually determines the city championship in the semi-pro ranks. The St. Joe's lineup consists mostly of star ath- letes who have been having one, of their best years. The game Friday evening should put the Speedboys in the best of shape for this en- counter. The second game of the series will be played the following Friday night at Hopeville school.
