of the first. 81.250 to the nominntor
of the second. and 8500 to the third.
This is in line with the policy of
President August llelmont. of the
Westchcstcr Racing Association. who
believes that there should be some
reward for the brew)" who does not
race. but sells in the open market or
privately. a colt or filly of outstand-

been at a modest figure. as in the

The. County League isn’t the only
organization that has trouble with
their umpires. An umpire by the
name of Jones held the indicator at
liadik field. He was‘ the worst on
balls and strikes that has been seen
here this season. He didn't favor
either side. so that made things a
little better.

The Lockwoods had their hitting
clothes on yesterday. It would have
taken a good pitcher to have turned
them back. It seemed as if they
could hit anything that come up to
the plate.

Bill Cook was in rare form. He
secured five hits out of six trips to
the plate. This is a fine afternoons
work. it does not look as if Bill was
slipping back very fast these days.
He was a big factor in winning last

Several other fighters around the
state are also laying claim to the ti-

of Bridgeport. It is expected that
Mulligan and Bones will get togeth-
er in the near future and settle“ their
little difference. “'atch the fire

Mulligan wants to fight Eddie
Mack of Stamford. I doh’t think
that he is Just ripe yet to go against
Mack. The Stamford fighter has
had a great deal more experience
than Mulligan and I think that he
knows too much about the game for
thc Norwalk lad. ‘
s O 0
Mulligan is a comer and it
brought along slowly and matched
with care by his manager. he should
go high in the boxing game. Many
a promising young fighter has spoil-
cd his entire career by being poorly
matched at the start. Slow and
fibre is the. best policy and I am
sure that is the one that Bill Smith
will follow.

“Chic" Dorsey is anxious to get

like a comer. when he was in the
ring last. winter. and should be a
good bet for some manager to get
ahold of and bring along. A match

bout.

BRIT ONS SAY LAKE IS BEST '
BOXER SINCE JEM DRISCOLL
Foreign boxing critics are uttering.
pancgyrics over the exploits of Bug-
lcr Lake. the English boxer who

Lcdoux. the good little Frenchman,
about three weeks ago in London.
They hail him as greater by for

given to the unkedxdoux bout than

of the new champion:

Other publications hail him as the
champion of the world and are
striving to create interest enough to
have some promoter stage a match
between Joe Lynch. the . world's
titlehoider. and Lake in England.
it is doubted if Lynch would consid-
cr any English offer. since his de-
mands in reg'ard to the purse. would
never be heeded by the British fight
directors. Perhaps some enterpris-
ing American organization will
match the European champion with
some of our good bantams. say Carl
Tremaine. Joe Burman. Pete Zivic.
or Frankie Jerome. Victories by
Lake over any of the above named
fighters would speedily earn him a
match with Lynch. in any event. he
would make more in a few contests
here than he would in tWenty over-
seas. since the purses are none too
liberal in England.
or the naming of Ledoux Boxing
has this to say:
"Alas! Lcdoux's defeat was not so
unexpected as Criqui's. ~Ledoux is
now thirty—three. His principal u-
sets wcre his waliop and his wonder-
ful stamina. In years gone by the
little man could fight like a hurri-
cane during twenty rounds and go
for a fifty mile bicycle ride at the
end of it. His resistance to fatigue
was almost incredible. but now the
wallop is disappearing. - and after
eight or ten rounds of furious fight-
ing the eat-European bantam cham-
pion is obliged to slackcn pace and
display signs of wear.
"Under these conditions defeat
was bound to happen. chiefly s)
when. as was the case with the Bug-
ler. he had to deal with a clever
boxer. a man who can box and
knows how to use his feet. Ledoux
still keeps the French title. but even
in that section be has dangerous
challengers. the best of them being
Calioir of Lyons and Routis of Bor—.
deaux. He has already twice de-
feated the last named. but Father

The large crowd which witnessed
the VVllton-K; of C. game yesterday
at the Baxter grounds. saw one of
the best pltchers' battles seen this
year. Holden and Tarlov for the
Knights and Chittenden and Mulvoy
for Wilton. performed in a fine man-
ner. The score was 2-1 in favor of
the Kaceys.
The hits and strike cuts were very
evenly devided. but the breaks of the
game were with the Kaceya Chit-
tenden was handicapped by Kcenn's
bsenco from third. as his substitute
Michalek was a failure. in! many er-
rors seemed to take the confidence
out of the Farmers. but Riley soot:
used the hook. sending Pltasants to
third and LiVolsi to second. then
\Vilton settled down and played good
ball. with the Knights doing the
same.
Neither side was able to score un-
til' the seventh, when Jackson cross-
ed the platc on Burke’s single and
one more in the eighth. when Tar-
lov‘s single scored Creavey.
The best the Farmers could do was
to get men on bases in sexcral in-
nings until the ninth. Mcrtz was call-
ed out on strikes twice. but in the
ninth he walked. stole second and
third. scoring on Pleasants third hit
of the game. but Pleasants ~ouid r at
tie the score as Guarnicri and
Bethke were soon put away. giving
the Kaccys the game two to one.
Morris umpired a good ”ante. but
on several occasions the fans thought
the dust must have obstructed his
vision. to the detriment of t‘~~ Farm-
ers. The Farmers were more then
grieved to loose the game, but one
and all are proud of the clue of ball
presented by “'ilton. as they have
nothing to be ashamed of in this de-
feat.
Riley had the misfortune of hav-
ing his finger split open to the bone
in the ninth inning. when a runner
blocked the ball. causing same to
hit the end of his finger. spilling it
the full length. which will keep old
reliable out of the game for some
time. much to \Yilton's loss.

St. Augustine links. a. favorite of
many notables. has natural water

In the double links Ross is utiliz-

islands. reached by bridges from
the beach. The method follows that
