There may be some who wera dis
appointed that Delancy did not
ncore a knockout over Solomon, but
the majority of the fans were satis
tied and well pleased that Dclaney
tried his hardest to put across his
famous punch and almost succeeded
in tho third round. There Is llttlo
doubt but that Solomon would have
been kayoed had not tho bell saved

Last night's card In Hartford
cam up to all expectations. Every
tight was a real battle and In nil
cases with possibly one exception,
the decisions were good. We were
of the opinion that a draw In the
nichards-Koche bout would have
been tho best bet, although Referee
Bily Conway cannot be criticised for
tho manner In which he saw the
bout.
Speaking Of referees, Billy Conway
is coming to the fore as one of the
best In the state. On several oc
casion! when we have seen him
work, we were much Impressed with
the manner in which he handled the
lighters In the ring. Ho makes the
hoys hustle and keeps them fight
ing clean. Tho llnal bout on last
night's card would have been a good
placo to have put Conway.

Some amusing incidents occurred
after tho tight was over while the
Immense throng was tiling out of
the. several doors of the spacious
stale armory. One. spectator, while
passing the bleachers at the main
gale, saw two shiny policemen's
sticks and he helped himself to
them. A blue-coated cop came
tearing after him and would have
arrested him only he dropped the
r.tlcks and wiggled Into the crowd.
Ho explained that lie wasn't going
to steal the clubs, he was just go

THINK FOOTBALL
BENEFICIAL GAME
Eastern College Officials Dis
agree With University Prolessors
New York, April 27 Kastern
college officials discussing the re
cently published report of tho Amer
ican association of university profes
sors which found that football Is a
menace lo morals and education, feel
that the gridiron grime Is beneficial.
Outstanding In defene ott this
sport Is tho opinion of Dean Chris
tian Gaiifs of Prineiton, which re
ceived the entire approval of Presi
dent Ilibben that "football, properly
coached and conducted, is a healthy
and wholesome sport tor players and
spectators. I wish we could rlay It
the year around."
Dean Gauss agreed with tho pro
fessors' report that "conditions vary
in differont Institutions," and also
that the primary course of all col
leges should be tho training of the
mind. "Football is one of the
healthiest academic vacations," he
said, "and I have known many stars
who were Phi Beta Knppa men."
Tho professors' findings blamed
football for increased drinking and
dishonesty, but Dean Gauss asserted
that In a year as dean at Princeton
no players had come before him for
discipline.
Dean Herbert E. Hnwkes of Co
lumbia found many of the report's
assertions trim for some institutions
of the country and agreed that con
ditions varied.
.Major J. !.. Griffith, commissioner
of tho western conference, speaking
in Chicago, said that, conditions in
the conference are on a higher plane,
and that it is unfair to judge inter
collegiate football by conditions of
many years ago. lie also agreed that
the evils noted might be found
somewhere In the country.

Another one of those things which
appear as "comedy to some folks,
but tragedy to me," took place at
011,0 of the side entrances. A cer
tain young man from Now Britain
was Jostling his way out of the
ii..:'. Tho crowd was jamming
pretty hard when one of those im
portant, persons who think they own
the universe, swopt the local boy
aside with a. scornful remark.
Nettled, the New Britain man sent
in th finest punch of the evening
and landed flush on the important
one's Jaw.
One of the policemen doing duty
at Ihti door, saw the happening and.
reaching over the shoulders of the
crowd, he laid a heavy hand on the
local man's shoulder.
Of course, the New Britain man
tried to get. away, but the Hartford
bluecoat's grip was a strong one.
Finally with a wrench, tho culprit
get away but there was a terrific
rip. Once, outside, he found that, his
coat, had parted all the way from
tho neck down. Hartford cops arc
sure strong.
