STATE CAPITOL. Hartford. May
27-The new state boxing commis-
sion hill reported in the House last
week was in the legislative flies and
was read with interest by members
because of the proposed radical
change in control of boxing and
wrestling in the state. Passage of
the bill has been forecast.

A state athletic commissioner for

four years. at a. salary of 33.000
would be appointed by the Cover-
nor. He would also receive his trav-
eling expenses and supplies. and
have an office in the capitol. He
could also issue subpoenas in case
of hearings. .

Mayor and wardens would have
the right to appoint a local inspect-
or to represent the commissioner at
all local boxing and wrestling
bouts.

The commissioner would have
sole control and jurisdiction over
the two sports mentioned, but the
bill does not. apply to amateur box.
ing and wrestling. '

Section live covers the application
necessary to secure permits for
bouts and the filing of bonds.

Reports of a. bout must be sent in
within twenty-four hours. and the
state is to receive a tax of five per
cent of total receipts from paid ad-
missions. '

Section scven relates to proceed-
ings of the commissioner in exam-
ining persons and books to .deter-
mine it reports have been correctly
made. . '

Section eight relates to conditions
of places in which bouts are held
and penalties for violation of regul-
ations. at line for first infraction be-
ing $200. and for subsequent of-
fense forfeiture of permit and dis-
qualification of permit holder and

Until Tris Speaker, manager and
centerflelder of the Clevcland In-
dians. cracked out his 8.000th hit in
the big leagues a few days ago but
live men in the history of the major
leagues had reached and-passed that
milestone on the road to immortal
slugging fame.
And the day that. Speaker reached
that milestone dispatches carried
the new: that Eddie Collins. manu-
ger and second baseman of the
White Soar. was then within a few
hits of the mark.

All of which moans that again
is the glory of the men whose
names are engraved big in the an-
nals of the game being temporarily
dimmed by new achievements.

And not only do Spcnkt-r and
Collins take rank with .lhese tlvo
great heroes. but they are on their
way to pass the records of at
least two of them before stepping
out of the game.

Fifth Place Durin
Leader .

By JOHN R. FOSTER.
(Copyright. 1925.)

NEW YORK. Mny
Fletcher. manager of the Philadel-
phia. National League club, has done
something for his team that has not
been achieved in Philadelphia since
the days of Pat Moran. Not since
the beginning of the season have the
Phillies been lower than fifth place
at the week-end. and in 1024 there
was never a. week-end that thry got
that high. 1

All during May last season. lhtly
were in eighth place. Thus far in
this May. they have been in fourth.
fifth and third place and they were
in third place last. which shows they
are on the way up.

_ Baseball fans begin to realize that
the work of the Phillies is the bit;-
gcst stunt that is being pulled off in
baseball this your. They aren't in
first place butlthey are not in eighth
place and never have they been
there on a week-cud since the sea-
son began. True thoir old Athletic
friends across the city are dancing
:1 hornplpc at tho expense of the
American League, “but they were in
fifth place when they quit in 1024.
and they seemed like a ball team
which might travel in 1925 if they
got propped up hero and there. The
Phillies didn't look any better at the
end of 1024 than they did at the be-
ginning. From July 26 on they

 

learned so well that they could
count all the cracks in the ceiling.

The .Boston‘Nattonals are about
like they were last season. The
Cubs are lots worse at the moment.
The Cincinnatis are as wobbly as
ever. The Pittsburgh: can't hit the
ball with runners on bases. The
Brooklyns are so much‘ like their
1024 selves that they must. be twine.
St. Louis shows promise. as it al-
ways does. but for the moment isn't
getting any farther. But this Philly-
dolphin. team. which didn't seem to
have much more than Boston down
south last spring. is making history.
It is stirring the National League
pudding and giving flavor to ll. If
it weren‘t for the injection of a. lit-
tle Philadelphia vanilla the race in
the senior outfit would be a worse
one-header than it is. _ ,
Secretly baseball men are givinz
Fletcher a lot. of praise for what he
has done. and baseball men are not
prodigal iwlth their compliments.
“Fletcher." said a keen observer.
“he! been working three years to
get. the Phillies on their toes. 3e
has thrown pounds of energy into
that ball team. only to have it ap-
pear that most of it was lost. But it
is beginning to tell this season. The
Mullins are making one of‘the best
“this in baseball. one of the best
fights that I ever saw a ball team
make.

team and lot it drop at any time on

Burns has given the I’hilllca' out-

"But that isn't all that he has
done. He has got the Phlillcs play-
ing ahead for the next base. They
are on their toes always ready and
quick to take advantage of anything
which may fall to them. They don't
hug the bases. They are playing
the forward game. They are off

The selection of Wilbert Robinson
of the Brooklyn baseball club to act
in the capacity of president of the
organisation. to succeed the late
Charles H. Ebbetts will mean that
the same policy which has been pur-
sued in the past will be continued in
theraffalrs of that club. ‘

Itvwill not interfere with the
handling of the club's affairs by
Robinson a: manager. as he will
continue in the‘ position of both
manager and prgldent for the re-'
malnder of the year. although, it
will add 'to his work the executive
responsibility connected with the
new odice. ‘

\ Thepltock of the club is equally

dividedy‘betwee‘n mo families. the

Ebbetl'family and the McKoever in-

terests. The choice of Robinson was

mutually agreed upon by both inter-

ests. ‘

Holmes on Mound

Bridgeport High

The Norwulk High ball teasers
continued their merry pace ot the
expense of ll‘uil'tlcld yesterday witt-
ning handily .n a County League
contest 5—2. This victory means
that the locals will be forced to play

the tie off with Greenwich .unless.

Faltfleld does the unexpected and
defeats Greenwich this Friday. in
this instance the Green and White
will win the championship without
effort. they still have one league
game to play with Danbury but this
looks like a probable victory as the
Hatters have as yet to emerge into
the win column. .

Holmes worked on the mound for
the Green and White and the Su-
perbanites could do little or nothing
with his puzzling shoots. Ho suc-
ceeded in retiring fourteen batsmen
via the strikeout route and was very
scarce with his hits allowing five.
The local twirlcr was never in dang-
er and was accorded brilliant sup-
port in the field with Hart again
turning in a neat game at the short
field. Dalaway woo has been an
enigma for the Norwalkers during

by his mates. thus making him the

the day. John McMahon guardian
of the hot corner who had not been
hitting so timely, of late emerged
from his seeming slump with two
singles out of four trips to the
plate.

ANNAPOLIS. Md” May 27.-—-It is
now'assurcd that rowing enthusi-

asts of the country have rcasan for
thrill over the prospect of .the two
regattas that will mark the climax
of the 1935 rowing season. ’

Both the Navy and Washington
are certain to wage a memorable
contention the Hudson river next
month and from the showing Har-
vard made against the Midshipmen
eight on tho Severn on Saturday
there may be no doubt that by the
time of the annual regatta on the
Thames the Crimson will be worthy
of the outstanding Yale
crow.

Hudson with any advantage at all
over the buckle: from the far north-
west. it will be only on the ground
of actual racing experience. Wash-
ington since the California regatta
in April has not rowed in a. regu-
lar race .whlle the Navy has been
developing on the basis of weekly
intercollegiate tests.

This may mean much or little.
Against any crow other than the
westerners it might out of hand be,

held to be worth a. very great deal,

but in the past Washington has re-
vealed no handicap due to this con-
dition [0 in the . coming race at
Poughkeepsle the disadvantage is
not likely to prays material. This
seems the more probable inasmuch
as Washington has had experience
for a long distance race—vthree
miles against Callfbrnla—wbereaa
the Navy has not rowed races of
length greater than a mile and a
half. ‘ , .

As‘to the. probable racing form of
the two crews the writer can say
nothing concerning Washington.
not having seen’ the eight, but he
can say definitely that an! boatload
of young men who leave the Navy
mailing this year will have cause

Midshipmen combination is as fine
an eight from] the standpoint of
rhythm and power and racing
