KAPLAN HOPES FOR DOLAN GO
 AFTER HARKINS
WaIlOping Welterweights Headline Waterbury A. C.
 Ring Show Thursday

Early reports from the fistic headquarters of the Waterbury A. c. volunteered the info that more than a few fistice promoters from several parts of Connecticut will be up and around and about tofnor- row night when Irving Kay Kp- Ian of Los Angeles gets his hands up aginst Wlcky Harkins the Phil- adelphia Harp who holds mods over Cat Robinson and Jimmy Leto, two better than fair welterweights.
 Kaplan beat Harkins on the Louis-Baer card in Washington, and Waterbury will be the scene Of his first Connecticut showing, which Is why the men who sign up bouts in other parts Of the state wan to get peek" ct Kaplan go that they can line him up for outdoor boxing if he clicks" against Harkins. Of course, Water bury A. c. promoters are showing him first so, If he makes the hit that he is expected to make, having already beaten Harklns, other state promoters will come first-after Waterbury.
 Dolan In Sight
 Frankly, the lrish-Jewist main bout Thursday night figures to draw plenty of patrons of the manly art, for Kaplan can fight and if the Connecticut Kaplans alone get 10 town, they will fill Up the first ten rows ringside. Incidentally, his handlers have been telling Kaplan about Irish Eddie Dolan, which Is the big idea behind his local show ing Thursday, for he knows that . win over Harkins will go a long way toward getting him bout with Do- Ian, If he shows something worth- while, and such a bout would draw quite bit of money and patron- age, in this city and put the Jewish boy in solid around the state, in regard to ring work in the itnmed- late future.
 Billy Brown, local middieweight who finished strong to earn six round draw with Red Doty last week is booked for 6 six round go with Felix Morales of Puerto Rico; with Earl Roys, classy Bristol ban- tamwegiht to take on Hamilton Willoughby Of New York, e stable- mate of Harkins.
 The Seini-final go Is one of six rounds featuring Abe Kaufman of New York and Leo Dulmaine of Worcester wiht Bobly Puline of Bristol to make his first pro show. ing. He came to the Bell Town from the state of Maine and his oppo- nent, Lee Hogan of New Haven has just turned professional. They are welterweights.

Bill Tilden Then La Coste, Cochet, Budge, Perry; Professional Kozeluh Ranks the Tennis Greats;
 Riggs Can't Concentrate, McNeill Just Swinger
BY HARRY CRIMSON NEA Service Sports Editor

Kary Kozcluh, famous interna. tionalist, ranks the tennis greats.
 Tilden, La Coste, Cochet, Budge Perry.
 "Tilden and La Coste stand out,' expiaisn Professional Kozeluh, the one-tiine American Davis Cup team coach. "1'he others are close.
 "Tilden was always good i. every day.
 "vines had one good year. A great player will stay up there for four or five years. Look how long Tilden was on top. He Is still formidable and he $ 48 years old.
 Perry was better all-round player than Budge, but I believe Budge at his peak could have beat- en the Englishman. Budge quit amateur tennis a year before he hit his peak. Budge and Perry outside on grass-shat would be match to see. Indoors on canvas, that is z tennis.
 Wines had q good serve and fore- hand but no backhand. Eliswortll's footwork was not good, neither
 Perry had perhaps the best foot- work. lie was q smart player.
 "Vines and Stoefen had the best serves. They were tall. Tildens waa great, too.
 T did rot see William M. John- son ct his best. He was little and very quick. Caiiorflia style. He was great for two or three sets, but in championship tennis c man must be good for five sets.
 Lott was the best doubles man He won the championship with three different partners.
 Riggs is the best amateur today but he may not win any more. He argues with his wife. A man must concentrate to play winning tennis Fighting with Q wife is no good.
 "Kovacs is a funny fellow. He makes shots nobody else can make, but he Is not good every day.
 "McNeiil is just 8 SWinger. When he is hitting he can give anybody a game, but that Is not often enough.
 Suzanne Lenglen was the great- est woman player who ever lived She was like 6 boy on the court Alice Marble would have no chance with her. Lenglen, then Helen Wills Moody Roark, then perhaps Mar ble. Molla Bjurstedt Mallory waA very good, but not good enough for Lenglen or Moody"
 They aii agree on Suzanne Lerg- len and Big Bill Tilden.

BUFFALO SEEKS NATIONAL ROLE
 IN BASKETBALL
Winter Program to Rival New York Games in
 Prospect
BY EDWARD N. FEHNEN United Press Stan Correspondent

|
 Buffalo, N. Y., June Il. (UP)- Doublehcader intercollegiate basket. ball, somewhat of a failure here or two previous occasions from Q finan. cial standpoint, was placed on ( firm basis for next season wher Canisius College leased the spacious Memorial Auditorium and enlisted the aid of Ned Irish, father of the idea in Madison Square darder In New York.
 In cooperation with Irish, whc also directs the double feature court attraction at Convention Hall Philadelphia, Canisius plans to pre-. sent Q full schedule of mnjor inter. collegiate contests here during the le4i-42 season.
 Splendid facilities of the new
 municipal auditorium provide ar excellent site for the games, where. as in other years the contests were held In the cramped quarters oi old Broadway Auditorium, 6 definite drawback to the success of the ven- ture. Tn addition, Buffalo provides 8 juinping-oh spot for mid-western and far.yestern college basketball teams enroute to the metropolitan, area.
 "Littic Three" Co Cooperate Niagara University and St. Bona venture, who with Canisius form the eWstern New York Little Three conference, will cooperate in the movement to give Buffalo intersec- tional basketball ct regular inter- vals.
 Although 1t is too early to say definitely which teams will play here, 1t can be assumed most of the quintets which annually meet in Madison Square Garden will make Buffalo . regular stop. This list in- cludes Southern California, Stan- ford. Notre Dame, Arkansas, Ken- lucky, Rice, City College Of New York, Long Island, and the Univer- Sity Of Kansas. Regularly sched- uled Little Three conference games will be included as part of certain double-header attractions.
 Schedule Depends on Interest
 Present plans cali for about seven or eight nights of college basketball with the possibility that the number will be increased if irl- terest warrants.
 Members of Canisius College Ath- letic Association expressed the hope that other Western and Northern New York Colylege teams would avail themselves of the opportunity to play in Memorial Auditorium against the nations top-ranking quintets.
 Irish promised to give every as- sistance possible to the new yen- ture. He recently severed connec- tions with the New York Giants of the National football league after an ii-year span as promotion di. rector.

East Mountain Chips and Puts

With the posting of the pairings for the Twilight League Scotch foursoineS, the E. M. c. A. goes into full swing with one of the busiest slates in the clubs history. The second round of the handicap tour nament must also be played this week and If the first round matches are any indication. some tough battles are anticipated.
 Tony Masone defeated Mart! Monti 2 and 1 in a dirg-dong af- fair. Despite Montis 70, Masone was able to sink them when they counted most for 6 well-earned yic- tory.
 Matty Penikas. the clubs cham. piol southpaw, also came through by q narrow margin In q first round match with Jimmy Burke. Matty uses 6 baseball grip, but this un- orthodox grip does not affect his game in any way, especially on the dog -leg 18th. Here he usually sends his drive right over the trees ct the corner for something like 276 to 300 yards.
 Determined to keep the golfing laurels of the Craig family in equilibrium, Mrs. craig also missed q hole-in-one when her tee shot hit the pin on the 18th and bounced few inches away. Mrs. Craig shoots very nice score and 1t is too bad she does not enter tourna- nents. There Is little doubt sine could give plenty of top-notch golf- CTS strong competition.
 The man to watch this season is Al zubras Al is out quite often on the practice tee perfecting those irons which he says gre giving him trouble. However, Al is extremely modest and not one to boast, SO that dissatisfaction with his irons may mean he ig not hitting the greens for easy pars or birdies.
 Jimmy Macintosh has c pleasant surprise for the members who par- ticipated in the Fairchild Wheeler match. This time Mac Is going to refund some of the fee each fnem- Der paid to entertain the visitors instead of his usual procedure of collecting.
