Feb. 2..Harvard has joined Princeton and Yale men in the de¬ mand for the return of in te reo Ite« i «*·*£ .sports. Harvard's challenge ringe true and demonstrates the under¬ graduates are solidly in favor of a resumption of intercollegiate ath¬ letics. The Crimson says: Harvard unofficially is unquestion¬ ably for the resumption of intercol¬ legiate carnei». This does not mean we have to rush back to the old sys¬ tem salaries nor advertising cam¬ paigns to attract crowds of thou¬ sands. We .simply desire to play in a contest with teams which are like our own. "Baseball and possibly track could be dragged out along informal lines, but to try to have an informal crew would be the height of absurdity. Two facts argue strongly for Intercol¬ legiate games. The first is that the President of the United States and the leading men of the War Depart¬ ment advocate them. Second, the col¬ leges which have maintained an in¬ tercollegiate system have not shown that their patriotic fervor or their in¬ terest in their nation's affairs has I waned. Their "athletics have been much more substantial and have done more good for a greater number." FRANKIE BURNS IS AFTER JOE LYNCH New York. -Feb. Ä.Joe Lynch Is going to have at least one worthy et hl» heels from now on. Frankie Burns, the little Jersey skeeter, al¬ though he ha« had a few cracks at the title, still believes he can win it. and means to force Lynch oat of his path. Burn» won a popular decision over the lanky West hide boy at the Pioneer Sporting Club some time back, and if the New Or¬ leans promoters think well enough of Lynch ss a drawing card he is willing to take Herman's place in a so-round bout. TOM JONES IS WELL "FIXED" WITH COIN New York, Feb. 2..Tom Jonaa. who hold« the proud distinction o( having managed three world champions. Jea» Willard, heavy-weight; Billy Papke, middle-weight« and Ad Wol¬ ga··, light-weight.is proud of his achievements. Jones was telling a number ot friends the other night that as a re¬ sult of Willard'.« success he (elt he had made more money as a flsht manager than any other person in tills Un« of work. "I (eel that 1 have more money to¬ day than any other fight manager," »aid Tom. "The only possible excep¬ tion Is Jim Buckley, who handled Harlem Tommy Murphy and others in the East. Buckley made most of his money by dabbling In leal estate."

Gallaudet College had an easy time defeating Maryland State last night at th· T. M. C. A. In the Intercol¬ legiate League, 32 to 8. Gallaudet put up the poorest exhibition of shooting baskets from the field that has been seen In the league thl· season. If they had sne easy chance In th· tint half they must have had fifty or more. They were not hard-luck «hots, either, but they came nowhere near going through tb« hoop-. They did little better in thl· respect In the second half, with the exception of Sanders, who put five double point¬ ers upon the scoreboard. Wlllman. who Is one of the best shots on the Buff and Blue team, blew shot after shot both from the field and fifteen- foot mark. He had twelve chance· to «cor· from fouls, the most of whlct« were of a technical nature, but waa only able to land four of them. The Maryland Staters fell down miserably In their defensiv· work against Gallaudet. In the games played with George Washington and Catholic universities It was their strong defensive playing that kept ¦ hem in the running. They did not cover up at all under Gallaudet's bas¬ ket until the Buff and Blue lad« had obtained a shot or two. Gallaudet had th« advantage at cen¬ ter, as both Dohrman and Fergu¬ son, who took hi· place, were able to place the ball Just where they wanted to. Both team« pasaed the ball much better than in previous contests but failed to benefit by It, aa they failed to score after getting in good posi¬ tions to shoot The Staters failed to score a field goal In the first half and only scored one point from foul«. It was Just ten minute« after the second half started that Eisernen landed a two pointer. Scoring from the field Is the worst foult that State has. ss there lan't a man in the squad who might be con¬ sidered an accurate shot. The first half ended ten to one In favor of the Kendall Greeners, and when the second half opened Coach Fred Moore must have taken some of the mlat out the eyes of his "pupils" for their shooting wa« much Improved. Gallaudet scored twenty point« to Maryland State's sixteen the second session. Sander«, getting twelve of them. Haul», who was only in the game for about ten minutes of the first period, landed two double point¬ ers.

James Butler has acquired the small tract at the Intersection of Central avenue and Yonkers avenue, which will enable him to construct a corner entrace to the race grounds.

Grandest Champion of Them «All Who Has Lost His Final Fight Great Referee Hands Final Count to John L. Sullivan America's grandest and greatest knight of the roped arena was counted out yesterday for the last time by the Oreat Referee. John L. Sullivan, formerly the heavy-weight boxer, died at his home at Abingdon, Mass., shortly after the noon hour. He was taken ill with heart trouble three weeks ago «nd it was thi» disease that finally put over the K. O. punch on the veteran champion. John Lawrence Sullivan, who was] 59 years old, was the most widely known Bostonian of the last 35 year». "Boston Strong Boy," cham¬ pion of the world, actor, author, gentleman farmer and temperance lecturer he lived through a career tuli ot the adoration of the crowd and the popularity that came with spectacular »ucees». He made his first ring appearances in Boston in 1878 and 1S79 when, the record book» »tate, he boxed in strictly local bouts. He lamed the plumber'« trade and boxing was a side issue. So great was his success In the ring, ? however, that he soon gave up the j soldering iron and became an out- and-out pugilist. Hi-· career was a serie» of knock¬ outs from that time until, by de¬ feating Paddy Ryan at Mississippi City on February 7, 18S2. he became heavy-weight champion of the United States. Thl» wa» a bare-fist fight (or $5,000 a side. It went nine rounds and Sullivan emerged des- tined to the most spectacular box- ing career anyone ha» ever known. .Sullivan began at once a triumphal tour or the world that included vic¬ tories over all comers and which lasted (or nearly ten year». His most Important fights during that time were the Charley Mitchell draw In Chan¬ tilly, France and the (amous Jake Kll- rain battle at Rlchburg, Mass., July 8. 1889. The Kilrain bout at bare knuckles lasted seventy-five rounds. Sullivan winning the fight and the side bet of »10,000 which made the battle a sensa¬ tion of the era (rom a financial stand¬ point. In the arena oí the Olympic Club. New Orleans. La., September 7, 18SC. John L. Sullivan met his Waterloo, being knocked out by Corbett in the twenty-first round. The fight was (or the largest sum ever known, a purse of $25,000, and a »ide bet of $10.000. Seven thousand people witnessed this great fistic battle, and the excitement and enthusiasm reached fever heat It was a triumph ot youth, agility and »kill over advancing years, over- confidence and strength. It was a vic¬ tory of mind over matter. Sullivan was seconded by Charles Johnson and Jack McAultffe, with Frank Moran as timekeeper. The men who stood behind Corbett were: Prof. John Donaldson and Billy Delaney. Bat Mastereon was his timekeeper and Philip Dwyer, the turfman, was final stakeholder. Promptly at I o'clock the two principals shook bands, anil, after a moment's parleying regarding tha rule·, prepared (or hostilities. The batle began at 9:05 o'clock. For the first round Corbett adopted dodging tactics, and the crowd yelled at him. After this round, and la the round« which followed, he took the Initiative and forced the fighting. Aa the battle proceeded It was seen that Sullivan waa being beaten and a great feeling, ot sympathy went up (or the man who had held the champion¬ ship so long. He struggled manfully to rush down his young opponent, but Corbett'» telling blow« dszed and bewildered him. and when time waa called (or the twenty-first round, the Call- fornlan rushed in and planted blow after blow on Sullivan'» faca and neck. The latter backed away, try¬ ing to save himself, but Corbett was close upon him, and when bleeding and exhausted, with glassy eyes and trembling limbs, he lowered his guard from sheer exhaustion, the young Californtan shot his right across the I champion's Jaw and he (ell like an ox. When finally he arose bruised and bleeding and staggering to the ropes, moved his battered and swollen lip», ther Issued these words in a tone horse with chragin and weakness: "It's the old, old story. I am like the pitcher that went to the well once too o(ten." His voice broke, and gulping down a sob he continued: "I can only say that I am (lad that I have been beaten by an American." He continued, however, in the lime¬ light up until the time of hi» death a stag« figure and after hi» victory over the Barleycorn champion, as a temperance advocate of Imposing presence and convincing style argument. Sullivan's grufine»», hia brusque manner and his towering figure made him the center of attraction wherever he went. His philosophy was straight and to the point and his manner of ¦peaking as devoid ot camoufla·· his fighting «trta had km Ten Years Since John L Appeared in This City it was with deep regret that John L. Sullivan's many friends here heard the announcement of his death at hi« home in Abington yes¬ terday. Sullivan'« last appearance here was in the week of September 16. 1907. when he gave his athletic act in conjunction with Billy Ar¬ lington's Golden Crooks Compatis at the Gayety Theater. "Diamond" Frank Hall was at that time man¬ aging Sullivan's affairs. The act was featured with a four-round bout between Sullivan and Jake Kilrain, the one-time hated rival of the grand old man of the game. Sullivan's buttle with John Barley¬ corn was by far the most spectacular of his eventful career in which ven¬ ture, however, he was not a great suc¬ cess, bis good fellowship and his wide circle of "friends" keeping him on the ropes continually. His advent on the temperance lec¬ ture stage brought about a famous in¬ cident In which Gen. Nelson A. Miles refused to appear with him as a speak¬ er at the same meeting. Sullivan met the rebuff with good naturel banter¬ ing and the remark that tbe only dif¬ ference between he and Miles as a lighter was that he started as a plum¬ ber and the General began life as a ribbon clerk and that he, Sullivan, was far more familiar with the Decla¬ ration of Independence. A few years ago after a long time spent partly upon the stage, in writ¬ ing various editions of his memoirs and as sporting editor of various big newspapers, he retired to North Abington and began farming on a .scientific ba«Is".that la he became a gentleman farmer, gathered a. few friends about him and could be found in the summer sitting on a stile ve¬ randa recounting stories of his long, eventful Ufe and dispensing sermons to all who might feel in need of a spiritual "reviving." Sullivan Most Honest Man of Ring.Corbett New York. Feb. 2.."What!" · claimed James J. Corbett. when the news of Sullivan's death wa· car¬ ried to him. After a pause of a few moments he pulled himself together. "I suppose you want some expres¬ sion from me. Well, tell them that I was too badly «hocked to say any¬ thing. "This seems almost too much for me," said Corbett, mopping his face as though making an effort to start the next round. "It la only a f»w month« ago that you came to me with the earn« new· of Bob Fitx- simmona. Let's «ee, what did I tell you then? "Well, John L Sullivan waa the greatest or Ml fighter· In his day. Th· world « hear me out In that statement He . -ly was a great fighter, but he was the fairest man who ever crawled through the ropes. He played the game because he loved It He told me that and loved to be honest. "I can honestly say he was the best man and the more admired of the heavy-weight fighters. In hi· day he could Have bested any man. Even though I won the champion¬ ship from Sullivan I could never have won nor no man could have won had I faced him In his prime. "Ills fairness In the ring and his true sportsmanship 'made him the most loved of all In the ring, not only by the fans, but by the men he fought as well. While every man that faced him was afraid of his mighty right, and I Include myself, we loved to fight a square man." Barrow Favors Price For League Presidency New York. Feb. 2.."If I should be called upon to suggest one for the presidency of the International League to succeed myself." said Ed Barrow, "I would certainly «recom¬ mend James Price, president of the Newark Beara for the place. He has all of the qualification» necessary for the job." The Internationals meet here on February 11 to decide the question. William May Low Bo> nton. Wltllamtttown.

If anyone »ugge«t» that there are better ball club« than those owned by Charley CotnUkey and the Brush heir«, do not brand him aa a fit subject for the observation ward.

Ernie Shore, of the Red Sox. Marvin Goodwin the Cardinal«, Eppa Rlxey of the Phil- lie» and Bad Pfeffer, Sherry Smith and Leon Cadore the Dodger» are among the former major heaver· who are In the service. Behind the plate Uncle Sam la a bit weak, having Hank Gowdy as the only former star who Jumped to the Red, White and Blue Lea¬ gue. Harris of the Indians or Gain¬ er of the Red Sox can guard the first sack with ability. At second base Jack Miller the Cards or Barry of the Red Sox would be stationed. Maranvllle of the Brave· haa the shortstop position cinch¬ ed, while Bate» of the Athletic» and Leonard of the Senatore are available for third. The outfield would also be ex· ceptionally »trong. Baby Doll Ja- cobson of the Brown», Duffy Lewi» and Chick Shorten of the Red Sox and Leslie Mann of the Cuba are among the outfielders In service. There are others, but these are Juat named off-hand to Indicate the sort of a team Uncle Sam can put on the field. GARDNER TO MEET TURNER ON THURSDAY Pinker Gardner, the Buffalo middle¬ weight grappler, who ia quite a favorite bere among the grappling fan» will be Joe Turner*» opponent in a finished wrestling bout otT Thurs¬ day night at the Lyceum Theater.

Manager McGeorge closed out for this mstch with both Turner and Gardner on Thursday night Both men have acreed to weight- In at 3 o'clock at 158 pounds. Gardner has agred to allow P. E. O'Connor to act as the third man on the mat Plnkey needs no introduction to the local wrestling fans, as he has appeared here ¡n a trio of matches twice being beaten l>y Turner and once forcing the champion to take two straight falls. BLUE RIDGE MEETING DELAYED BY MOGULS Haf-erstown, Md.. Feb. 2..The meeting to fix up a circuit for the Blue Ridge League will not be held before March 1. In making this an¬ nouncement the director» of the league »ay that while they axe sure the league will be In operation, they think it best to delay as long as pos¬ sible so they may get a better line on conditions that will have an in¬ fluence In «electing cities to form the organization. Meanwhile discussion over the make-up oí the league free and everybody is entitled to expresa an opinion. A pretty and compact clr- cult would be one Hagers town, Cumberland. Harrisbure, Lancaster. York and some other city. This sixth city is the stumbling block. The five cities named are outlined by a local man high In league affairs, but his sixth city nomination is a blank. Frederick, if admitted, would put the circle out of plumb and would, too, be a weak sister. Judging from the past. To admit Johnstown or Al- toona would be bad, too. The real solution seems to be to leave out one of the live named above.either Lancaster or York.and a neater or more balanced circuit than the four- club arrangement left could not be imagined. PAL MOORE IS BUSY KNIGHT THESE DAYS Baltimore.

HARVARD STUDENTSSTRONG FOR SPORTS

Boaton. Feb. 2..Harvard has joinedPrinceton and Yale men in the de¬mand for the return of in te reo Ite« i «*·*£.sports. Harvard's challenge ringetrue and demonstrates the under¬graduates are solidly in favor of a

resumption of intercollegiate ath¬letics. The Crimson says:

Harvard unofficially is unquestion¬ably for the resumption of intercol¬legiate carnei». This does not meanwe have to rush back to the old sys¬tem salaries nor advertising cam¬paigns to attract crowds of thou¬sands. We .simply desire to play in acontest with teams which are likeour own."Baseball and possibly track could

be dragged out along informal lines,but to try to have an informal crewwould be the height of absurdity. Twofacts argue strongly for Intercol¬legiate games. The first is that thePresident of the United States andthe leading men of the War Depart¬ment advocate them. Second, the col¬leges which have maintained an in¬tercollegiate system have not shownthat their patriotic fervor or their in¬terest in their nation's affairs has Iwaned. Their "athletics have beenmuch more substantial and have donemore good for a greater number."

Grandest Champion of Them «AllWho Has Lost His Final Fight

Great Referee Hands FinalCount to John L. Sullivan

America's grandest and greatestknight of the roped arena wascounted out yesterday for the lasttime by the Oreat Referee.John L. Sullivan, formerly the

heavy-weight boxer, died at hishome at Abingdon, Mass., shortlyafter the noon hour. He was takenill with heart trouble three weeksago «nd it was thi» disease thatfinally put over the K. O. punch onthe veteran champion.John Lawrence Sullivan, who was]

59 years old, was the most widelyknown Bostonian of the last 35year». "Boston Strong Boy," cham¬pion of the world, actor, author,gentleman farmer and temperancelecturer he lived through a careertuli ot the adoration of the crowdand the popularity that came withspectacular »ucees».He made his first ring appearances

in Boston in 1878 and 1S79 when,the record book» »tate, he boxed instrictly local bouts.He lamed the plumber'« trade

and boxing was a side issue. Sogreat was his success In the ring, ?

however, that he soon gave up the jsoldering iron and became an out-and-out pugilist.

Hi-· career was a serie» of knock¬outs from that time until, by de¬feating Paddy Ryan at MississippiCity on February 7, 18S2. he becameheavy-weight champion of theUnited States. Thl» wa» a bare-fistfight (or $5,000 a side. It went ninerounds and Sullivan emerged des-tined to the most spectacular box-ing career anyone ha» ever known.

.Sullivan began at once a triumphaltour or the world that included vic¬tories over all comers and whichlasted (or nearly ten year». His mostImportant fights during that time were

the Charley Mitchell draw In Chan¬tilly, France and the (amous Jake Kll-rain battle at Rlchburg, Mass., July8. 1889.The Kilrain bout at bare knuckles

lasted seventy-five rounds. Sullivanwinning the fight and the side bet of»10,000 which made the battle a sensa¬tion of the era (rom a financial stand¬point.In the arena oí the Olympic Club.

New Orleans. La., September 7, 18SC.John L. Sullivan met his Waterloo,being knocked out by Corbett in thetwenty-first round. The fight was (orthe largest sum ever known, a purseof $25,000, and a »ide bet of $10.000.Seven thousand people witnessed thisgreat fistic battle, and the excitementand enthusiasm reached fever heatIt was a triumph ot youth, agility

and »kill over advancing years, over-

confidence and strength. It was a vic¬tory of mind over matter.Sullivan was seconded by Charles

Johnson and Jack McAultffe, withFrank Moran as timekeeper. The men

who stood behind Corbett were: Prof.John Donaldson and Billy Delaney.Bat Mastereon was his timekeeper andPhilip Dwyer, the turfman, was finalstakeholder. Promptly at I o'clockthe two principals shook bands, anil,after a moment's parleying regardingtha rule·, prepared (or hostilities. Thebatle began at 9:05 o'clock.For the first round Corbett adopted

dodging tactics, and the crowd yelledat him. After this round, and la theround« which followed, he took theInitiative and forced the fighting. Aathe battle proceeded It was seen thatSullivan waa being beaten and a

great feeling, ot sympathy went up (orthe man who had held the champion¬ship so long.He struggled manfully to rush down

his young opponent, but Corbett'»telling blow« dszed and bewilderedhim. and when time waa called (orthe twenty-first round, the Call-fornlan rushed in and planted blowafter blow on Sullivan'» faca andneck. The latter backed away, try¬ing to save himself, but Corbett wasclose upon him, and when bleedingand exhausted, with glassy eyes andtrembling limbs, he lowered his guardfrom sheer exhaustion, the youngCaliforntan shot his right across the Ichampion's Jaw and he (ell like an ox.

When finally he arose bruised andbleeding and staggering to the ropes,moved his battered and swollen lip»,ther Issued these words in a tonehorse with chragin and weakness:"It's the old, old story. I am like

the pitcher that went to the wellonce too o(ten." His voice broke,and gulping down a sob he continued:"I can only say that I am (lad thatI have been beaten by an American."He continued, however, in the lime¬

light up until the time of hi» deatha« a stag« figure and after hi» victoryover the Barleycorn champion, as atemperance advocate of Imposingpresence and convincing style oíargument.Sullivan's grufine»», hia brusque

Ten Years Since John LAppeared in This City

it was with deep regret that JohnL. Sullivan's many friends hereheard the announcement of hisdeath at hi« home in Abington yes¬terday. Sullivan'« last appearancehere was in the week of September16. 1907. when he gave his athleticact in conjunction with Billy Ar¬lington's Golden Crooks Compatisat the Gayety Theater. "Diamond"Frank Hall was at that time man¬aging Sullivan's affairs. The actwas featured with a four-roundbout between Sullivan and JakeKilrain, the one-time hated rival ofthe grand old man of the game.

Sullivan's buttle with John Barley¬corn was by far the most spectacularof his eventful career in which ven¬ture, however, he was not a great suc¬cess, bis good fellowship and his widecircle of "friends" keeping him onthe ropes continually.His advent on the temperance lec¬

ture stage brought about a famous in¬cident In which Gen. Nelson A. Milesrefused to appear with him as a speak¬er at the same meeting. Sullivan metthe rebuff with good naturel banter¬ing and the remark that tbe only dif¬ference between he and Miles as alighter was that he started as a plum¬ber and the General began life as aribbon clerk and that he, Sullivan,was far more familiar with the Decla¬ration of Independence.A few years ago after a long time

spent partly upon the stage, in writ¬ing various editions of his memoirsand as sporting editor of various bignewspapers, he retired to NorthAbington and began farming on a.scientific ba«Is".that la he becamea gentleman farmer, gathered a. fewfriends about him and could be foundin the summer sitting on a stile ve¬randa recounting stories of his long,eventful Ufe and dispensing sermonsto all who might feel in need of aspiritual "reviving."

Sullivan Most HonestMan of Ring.Corbett

New York. Feb. 2.."What!" ·claimed James J. Corbett. when thenews of Sullivan's death wa· car¬ried to him. After a pause of a fewmoments he pulled himself together."I suppose you want some expres¬

sion from me. Well, tell them thatI was too badly «hocked to say any¬thing."This seems almost too much for

me," said Corbett, mopping his faceas though making an effort to startthe next round. "It la only a f»wmonth« ago that you came to mewith the earn« new· of Bob Fitx-simmona. Let's «ee, what did I tellyou then?"Well, John L Sullivan waa the

greatest or Ml fighter· In his day.Th· world « hear me out In thatstatement He . -ly was a greatfighter, but he was the fairest manwho ever crawled through the ropes.He played the game because he lovedIt He told me that and h· lovedto be honest."I can honestly say he was the

best man and the more admired ofthe heavy-weight fighters. In hi·day he could Have bested any man.Even though I won the champion¬ship from Sullivan I could never havewon nor no man could have won hadI faced him In his prime.

"Ills fairness In the ring and histrue sportsmanship 'made him themost loved of all In the ring, notonly by the fans, but by the menhe fought as well. While every manthat faced him was afraid of hismighty right, and I Include myself,we loved to fight a square man."
