LUX AND CLOCK
 BOWLERS TO COMPETE

Pat Perugini of Lux Clock Com- pany and George Perrine of the Waterbury Clock Company have ar- ranged for the Industrial Bowling Match of the season when Lux bowlers will battle against Water- bury Clock bowlers at the Matta- tuck alleys next Saturday after noon, November 18th at 200 p. m.
 All top floor alleys have been re- served for this match which should be a natural and Q very close bat- tie throughout as both factories have many Al bowlers.
 The match will be between IS of the best men bowlers in each fac- tory and 10 women from each fac- tory. This should be a very close contest with both managers con- 1ldent of victory.
 There will probably be a sizeable purse going to the winner, total pinfall for three games to decide winners in both male and female divisions.
 Perugini claims that Lux can beat Ingersoll in both divisions while Perrine claims that his boys stand on their records and that he has a girls team second to no factory girls team in the state.
 At any rate friendship has ceased among bowlerS of both factories until after the match when all will join in refreshments and e social time.
 There will be Q return match in December at which time the off, cials of both clock companies will join their employees to out-bowl their opponents.

COCOA KID TO DEFEND COLORED
 WELTER GROWN
New Haven Boy to Face Sonny Jones in HOIyOke
 Arena Monday

Holyoke, November g. - Louis "Kid" Cocoa of New Haven, colored welterweight champion of the world, VII defend his title next Monday night at the historic Valley Arena against Sonny Jones of Canado, British Empire welterweight king, in the first 16 round bout scheduled for this section of the cuntry since boxing was legali0ed in Massachu. sets many years ago.
 The bout, sanctioned by the Mas sachusetts Boxing Commission, is the most important ever staged here, and the announcement before the Wakerlis-Bruno bout last night was greeted with a roar by the clinents and an immediate rush to make reservations for the match.
 The Coccoa Kid Is Welterweight champion of New England, but in the past year, because of the fact that after he demolished Andy Cal- lahan there was no New England welterweight capable of extending him, he has done most of his fight ing in the rings of Baltimore and New Orleans.
 Awarded Belt
 It was in New Orleans last spring that he won @ belt emblematic of the colored championship of the world, when he defeated Holman Williams of Chicago, former na- tional amateur welterweight king, in a 15 rounder. The belt Is now in the hands of Homer Rainault, and will be presented to the winner next Monday night.
 Both boxers have agreed to weigh l47 pounds at two o'clock next Monday afternoon. Cocoa Kid will receive 37 1-2 per cent of the net receipts, the usual "cut" for @ champion, while jonos will receive l2 Ia per cent, with a privilege ot $500.
 Jones Is considered one of the greatest fighting men ever to ap- pear her, and that is emphatic lan- guage when 1t is considered that Billy Petrollo, Lou Ambers, Sixto Escobarfi and many other renowned boxers appeared here.
 Not So Bad
 Since returning to this country from his sensational invasion Of England, he has fought here three times, defeating Frankie Britt, draw ing with Andro Jossurun, and win- ming over Wicky Harkins. In AL bany, he knocked out Werter Arcol- Ii. Because of his glittering record and great local popularity, he may rulO favorite to dethrone Cocoa Kid.
