An lntercounty cock-1 ght was arranged between birds from c ondonderry and Antrim and was held a one of the islands In the lough, he police got wind of It and arrived, 5 s they usually do, late. All the availale boats bad been pressed Into use by ie spectators, and the police, after ying vainly to secure transportation > the island, determined to swim for c . Just as they arrived the bout ended, ' ad every boat put off for the malnind again. The police had a swim ack for their pains, and when they . sached the mainland they found that \ leir clothing, over which they had neg- S eted to ipave a ruard. had disanneor !. They had a ten mile march In ripping underclothes to the nearest irraeks, where they were put to bed j atll new uniforms could be procured.
