Bristol "Tean To Beat" In State Meet
HARKINS ABLE
 TO STOP CAT
 FANS ASSURED
Bennett and Gold VOuch for PhiIly Irishman Com.
 ing Here Thursday

Confident that they have secured fighter who will not only defeat Cat Robinson, but more probably knock him out, Waterbury A. c. officials are looking forward to an- other capacity crowd for Thursday night of this week at Buckingham hall when Wicky Harkins, Phila- delphia Iifshman makes his first Waterbury showing. A three round knockout over Primo Flores of New York and draw with Cocoa Kid is high recommendation for the Philadelphian, but he will need plenty of class and punching power 10 defeat the shifty, slugging Ja- maica Negro whose four or five local showings have been crammed with action, win or lose. He had no trouble beating Dick Turcotte and Francesca Montanari, two bet- ter average fighters, will known to local rlngWorms.
 Looks Good
 Harkins is handled by Charley Bennett. New Yorokcr who has a stable of fighters that are not sen- satlonal or world champions, but are kept busy because they are good enough 10 give the customers plenty of action, wherever they go. Har- lsins is also "okayed" by Ralph Gold, well known locally as the New Yorker who handled Water- bury's Eddie Hogan, now in Holly wood: Ginger Foran, Turcotte and others. Briefly, if Bennett and Gold say Harkins is more than good enough for Robinson, that is good enough for the writer who knows both handlers.
 In the semi-final six, Eddie Suggs clever New York Welterweight, has been matched to meet Fred Lewis, of Wilkes Barrie, Penn. Suggs showed to advantage here on the last card by pounding out win over Red Doty of Hartford, but will run into trouble against Lewis. According to reports, Lewis, former United States A. A. U. lightweight king, is one Of the most promising boys to enter the professional ranks In some time.
 Miller VI Angieri
 Nell Miller, popular Wilkes Barre, Penn., welter returns to ac- ton here against Mike Angieri of Inwood, l.. l., in q bout listed over the six-round route. Miller whipped Pat Foley of New Haven in his last showing here and can be counted on to give his Italian foe stiff argument. Angieri, whc defeated Al Evans of New Haven at New Britain several weeks ago, has fought some Of the best welterweights in the business.
 Another six stanza will show Maxie Katz, red-headed Jewish middleweight, pitted against Johnny Leonard, Wilkes-BarTe. Pa.
 The curtain raiser vii bring out of retirement Emil Eetters. His ops ponent will be Tony Falco of Mid dletown in a four-round bout.

Los Angeles, March {. -- (UP) - Miss Alice Marble had 6 miserable cold, and, being neighborly, l fixed up basket of cookies, will haw preserves, chicken broth and Kleenex, and paid her @ visit.
 After eating up most of what l brought her. I delicatcly mancuvered the conversation around to tennis and asked her to name the greatest player she had ever seen.
 Well" she answered, I'm travel ing around on my professional tour with two of them Bill Tllden and Don Budgc. Oh, l know, there can't be but on greatest player but how are you going to choose be. tween Bill and Don? AS a matter oi fact, in naming the greatest tennis player who ever lived, think you'll have to take three names into con- sideration. Bill, Don and Ellsworth Vines"
 While finished off the cookies Mss Marble and her friend and teacher of many years, Eleanor Remnant, figured out how they would rank the veteran Philadcl- phian, the California herdhead, and the lanky Vines, who has abandoned tennis for golf.
 They decided that Vines, for one match, was the best of all time.
 They rated Budge as the greatest player over a stretch of q year.
 They put Tilden at the head Of the great players over the years.
 "Vines was unbeatable when his game was absolutely under control, Miss Marble said. "I'his wasn't often, because Ely allowed no mar gin for error. He hit every shot
