Two Eight-R ROund Bouts at R-C Stadium MOnta-
 bana Bell Listed
BY HUGO HOoKJAB

With four good "club fighters" zoe ing sixteen rounds or less, depend- ing upon the ability of each to stop his opponent before the allotted time of two eight round bouts, Wa- terbury patrons of the ring sport should sit in on plenty of action tonight at Randolph Cloves sta- diun from 8:3O to about ii o'clock.
 Carl Dell, Oneonta, N. Y. welter- weight who gave Waterbury Eddie Dolan quite an argument and then defeated Ernie Cat Robinson will make another local showing against Manuel Villa, I, of Mexico City who also made quite an impression among local. fandom with an eight round decision over Robinson, who is quite welterweight in his own right. There's nothing fancy about either Dell or Villa as far as their ring work is concerned, but they are rugged, tough and good hitters. which is why their contest tonight should be very much of the okay side
 May Re Best Bout
 After being trained by Chick Kel- ley to the proverhial "pink," Ben Montabana of Birmingham, Ala baina should be able to take care of Mike Angieri, of Inwood, Long Island, though taking care of Mike in a ring is no easy task, judged of his work against Neil Miller last winter, for Miller is no slough" either. However, Montabana has trained well for his first Waterbury showing which he is most anxious to make a good one, but he will have to have plenty of class and punch to outpoint the rugged, busy, heavy-punching Angieri, who is really after a bout with Eddie Dolan for he has ben told ethat Is the money-maker in these parts.
 Jimmy Bell of New Haven and Patsy Prazerelli of Wilkes Barre, Pa, are down for a six-rounder that may end in 8 knockout If Pasquale is not able to stand of the fast, two listed Bell who has not been beaten in some time, and always seems to make an especially good showing in Waterbury, the scene of some of his greatest fights and winning eff forts. Bell and Angieri would make a great bout if both win tonight.
 Jack Reilly of New York and Lee Hogan of New Haven are paired in a four round bout at 14O pounds while Tom Collins of Waterbury and Walter Munday of Springfield will also go that distance.
 Dell, on the face of his two local showings has been made 6 6 to 5 choice while Montabana Is said to have a real chance to upset the favored Angieri.

TODAY'S SPORT PARADE

good book teaches us that Goshen is the land of plenty, but don't try to the Broadway mob which invad- ed this quiet village to watch the Hambletonian and maybe wrench a buck or two out of the iron men.
 The city slickers brushed the hay out of their hair and allowed there are other places besides Times Square where guy can be parted from his roll. They are on their way back to Broadway today, some in rags, some in tgs and some of them thumbing for ride. It seems that the country boys won ali the money yesterday.
 Mir. Chick Wergeles, prize fight manager, promoter, press agent and an expert on what the boys call 'The Angles" voiced the d1Scontent of the Broadway mob after the country lambs had sheared the city wolves.
 "Foist, the food" said MT. Wer. geles, listing his complaints. T go into one of dem tents where the church people is serving food and figure to tear a herring. And what they got? No herring. Nothing but stuff like fried chicken, cake and vegetables. Fresh vegetables, get what mean2"
 MT. Wergeles consumed a cheese sandwich and entered the grard- stand to watch the trotters. The other members of the mob were as- founded to find out thatt he horses were bareback, and that in lieu of jockeys they had drivers riding in sulkieS. Right then the Broadway mob heard the first rumble of dis- aSter. :.
 In rapid succession MT. Wergeles picked himself four losers. MT. Ray Carlen, manager of Lou Nova and another member of the Broadway expedition, confided that he, too, was having difficulty in his struggle against the Mutuel machines. Uncle Mike Jacobs, the fight promoter maintained 6 grim silence but his lips were drawn into such a thin, tight line that his store teeth, for the first time in years, failed to clack. Just after the sixth race Mr. Carlen confided that he knew when he was licked and began a strategic retreat toward Times Square. Mr. WergeleS said he would fight it out on this line if 1t took all summer. Air N. G.
 "But I don't feel good" he said. land 1t ain't just the 20 fish I've blown either. This air up here ain't good for me. All that grass and them flowers and trees gets on my noiyes. Maybe I got hay fever or an allegory to freah air. It gives me headache"
 The Broadway expedition was g sullen island of discontent in the great sea of country folks who know their trotters and were doing all right. The country folks had broad smiles on their faces and great
 bulges of winning Mutuel tickets ir
 their hands. They were full of luck and fried chicken and MT. Wereelei
 eyed them goGiriy.
 Dem guys do Ckay on their hoEnl grounds, don't they" he remarked And could you spare a fin for trair fareaS
