Rickard originally had signed l’ir-

it was learned yesterday that the

that he has already started negotia-

Nov. 7 is interpreted as substantia-

Further substantiation is had in
the announcement from a source
close to McTiguo that the world's
champion now is planning an ex-
”tensive tour of the country, bent on
a campaign .t'vhlch will keep him
more active than- he has ever been
before. This campaign will be inau-

Providence, R. 1., where Mc'I‘lg'ue
has signed to box Frankie Carpen-
ticr of 'Freeport. L. 1.. in a twelve-

to do all his fighting during the in-

The cencelation of the M'c'l‘lgue-

point was raised that Mc’l‘lg, no prob-

view of the fact. that the. pair were

that did not materialize because at

last week at a meeting Aofrepresen-
tatives from thirteen high achools
held in Bridgeport. Other officers
elected were: Miss Florence Clark of
Milford. vice president. and Miss
Flora Stoehr of Stamford secretary
and treasurer.
The meeting proved to be a. suc-
cessful ‘bne. every school represented
deciding to enter the proposed lea-
gue. Although no official league
schedule was drawn, it is hoped that
the organization will have one
next )eai. Besides the election of
officers, the most important business
transacted was the reading and ac-
ceptance of the eligibility rules
\1 hich were prepared by'a commit-
tee composed of Miss Margaret Har-
ver of \Villlmantlc, Miss Jessie Doyle
of Mcriden and Miss Helen Lock-
wood of Bridgeport. The rules are
chiefly based on the headmasters'
rules of the state which govern boys

It is planned to hold examinations
in November for those persons de-
siring of becoming referees and um-
pires. The officials will be examin-
ed by an examining board which will
consist of three members uninterest-

The 1~xaminution will consist of
actual rcfx't'ecinp: in games' which
will be held in llridzeport and Meri-
dcn at datvs to be announced later.
The league was formed chiefly
through thc cfforls of Miss Lock-
wood 01‘ Bridgeport and much credit
is due to the Park City coach for
licr untiring efforts in organizing the
league. 'l‘ho objectives of the league-
are 111 promote bettcr feeling he-
twcrn the various high schools of
