Hurley Confident
 Waterbury Will Get Trade School

"I am confident that Waterbury will get a trade school" Governor Robert A. Hurley told 300 persons attending the 20th anniversary dinner of the Women's Demo- cratic Club at The Elton last night.
 The governor departed from the text of his prepared speech to pay tribute to Waterbury legislators at Hartford and their fight for both his program and local legis- lation.
 Said the governor: waterbury should be proud of Senator (Mich- acl VI Blansiield, who has done so much to sec that our legisla. tive program is adopted. He has done splendid work"
 Waterbury is also to be con- graduated on It's senior senator, Senator Edward P) Egan, who IS making such q great fight to win a trade school for your city. I know you appreciate his efforts"
 The governor went on to de- scribe Representative Daniel J. ,Mahaney as a man beloved by all members of the House at Hart ford, even though he is in tem- porary disrepute because he has been seen hobnobbing with several Republicans"
 DNn has done 2 great deal for Waterbury and the state fin his six ternns," said Governor Hurley.

BOSTON. Aug. 9.-The tale of two
particular cities is becoming in
creasingly annoying to the Mats,
who haven't fashioned a victory
either here or at Philadelphia this
season. The Mats seem to expert
ence a sort of baseball blackout in
visiting those villages. At least they
haven't been very brilliant.
1t now should be a matter of great
civic pride to Boston and Philadel-
phia inhabitants as to which city
will treat the Mats more rudely. Cur
rently they are neck and neck in
the inhospitality sprint, each hav-
ing captured six games.
To the league-leading Yankees the
Mats owe great gratitude, for at
New York they achieved their only
triumph in Is Eastern road games.
The Yankees may have wearied of
the monotony of it, for they whipped
Washington every time they met at
Yankee Stadium in 1910.
Ken Chase, who hasn't formed a
habit of winning, was to face Lefty
Grove here today and there was a
sneaking suspicion among the ma
tives that Mr.. Grove would annex
victory No. 301 in a career that was
launched shortly after the Boston
tea party. Chase was attempting to
avoid defeat No. IA of 1941.
Steve Sundra, who has been
shelled from the mound in his last
three starts, virtually was assuring
the Mats their sixth successive Fen
way Park loss as early as the first
inning yesterday. He permitted six
runs in that inning, after the Mats
had staked him to a two-run lead,
and the Red Sox continued the as

Station, and 1t. John Agnew Of No.
3 were foremost among list Of pro-
posed successors to Maj. Ernest w.
Browns post on the Boxing Com
mission which is expected TO be
filed early next week.
Inspector Edward J. Kelly. who
succeeds Brown as chief of the
Police Department, said today he
had not given the matter any
thought but probably would make a
decision Monday or Tuesday. The
inspector has been on leave this
week, resting up before plunging into
the arduous task confronting him.
Kelyy said he thought both Agnew
and Mansfield were highly capable
officers, well verseG in sports and
abreast of matters in boxing but had
no idea which was suited better for
the position.
Agnew also is on leave, and at his
home it was said he was visiting
relatives in North Carolina. Cur
rently he is engaged in handling ar
rangements for the Police-F -Firemep
Field Day at Griffith Stadium the
latter part of this month. His feel
ings in the matter are not known al
though it is believed he would be
willing to serve.
Mansfield was considered for
one of the three positions on the
ring commission before Browns ap-
pointment eight years ago. An in
veterate boxing fan. he promoted
the first show ever staged at the
old Ardmore Md Club as a bene-
/ fit for the Ardmore baseball team.
Buddy Rae, now a guard at the
Capitol, appeared in the main bout.
After a second show professional
promoters saw the financial posi-
bilties OF the place and took it over.
Mansfield has not missed an i'm
portant bout in Washington or out
of town in years. He said today he
would be willing to serve if ap-
/ pointed, but he VIII not seek the po-
| Sition.
