S s (By Hal Sheridan- ‘Warned by what happened to the game in California, fight promoters of New Orleans are reported to be ma- neuvering cautiously in billing fu- ture engagements. Some opposition to the fight game is reported to be in evidence in Louisiana, but by dis- countenancing ‘“rough stuff” the southern fight managers hope to keep contests going along smoothly with- out encountering legal obstacles. Already they are talking of staging a bout for the lightweight champion- ship of the world in the river ecity. Promoters would like to schedule such a mill between two bantams, preferably Kid Williams and Frankie Burns, for Mardi Gras week. No one would risk killing the game by bring- ing in a couple of heavies for a bout. Notre Dame’s game with West Point next fall, apparently will fur- nish the country with about the best line of dope on the respective powers of the eastern and western elevens. Definite word some time ago that Harvard and Michigan would not get together this year made the engage- ment between the Catholics and West Point one of the leading intersection- al battles of the year. The soldier’s schedule, just out, calls for Notre Dame’s appearance on Nov. 6. England will bid actively for just one athletic title this year, accard- ing to best word relayed here from London. Participation in practically all sport branches is knocked out by the war but Harry Vardon will try to grab the national open golf cham- pionship anpd only Francis Ouimet and Chick Evans are conceded chan- ces of beating the Englishman. If Vardon carries off honors he will give England a batting average of 1,000 in the international contest series. There will be no interna- tional polo and no rowing contests this year and it is not at all certain that tennis enthusiasts will see com- petition for the Davis cup. The proposal to set up the three- year rule barring freshmen from com- petition seems to have taken its usual course in the east. There was con- siderable talk of barring the year- lings but the exccutive and advisory committees of the intercollegiate as- sociation of Amatuer Athletics of America at its recent meeting here | did not even give the subject con- sideration. When the association meets March 6, it is not likely that it will have| the freshmen rule to discuss. While it is possible that some of the larger universities, notably Yale, may re- new its request for action, it is con- sidered that smaller eastern schools at which freshmen are allowed to compete on athletic teams, will exert enough influence to prevent the adop- tion of such a rule. Several import- ant changes in the method of run- ning off field events at the annual games probably will be adopted at the March meeting. Col. Jacob Rupert—who makes— well, everybody promised not to men- tion the brew—is considerable of an amateur at the magnate game and willing to admit it. To a crowd of reporters who gathered in his office, after the New York Yankees had been formally transferred, the new owner addressed a request that no mention of his brewing business be allowed to creep into the sport col- umns. “I'll handle the advertising for my business in the usual way,” was the way the colonel put it. Mentioning no names, several other leading gents of the baseball world haven’t O. K.’d the Rupert doctrine. From Columbia comes the howl that there is a great dearth of candi- dates for crew work. Indoor prac- tice has begun on the rowing ma- chines, but only a handful of candi- dates showed up. Coach Rice asked for enough varsity candidates to fill eight boats but got no less than half that number.
