NEW YORK, April 1.—With the possible exception of Johnny Kilbane, all the pugilistic champions seem firmly seated on their thrones after the history of boxing. one of the biggest winters in Johnny Wilson, the middleweight champion and one of those of whom the bugs said, “He’s done for the first time] Athletic association. | SPORT FLASHES HOT OFF WIRE le defends the title,” was the last to] prove himself the best in his class. | Wilson is far from what the Amer-| ican expects in a ring champion, but nevervielvss he proved himself the} best in the division by defeating Mike O'Dowd, ranked the next best, for the| second time. { Italian, when O'Dowd | the referee who took the title from him with lar- ceny, came out with a line that may} follow him to the end of his career— The Boston was chargin “There are a lot of boys who can| beat me, but Mike O'Dowd is one that} I can whip every night in the week."”| O'Dowd not only lost his bid for the crown he used to wear, but he dem- onstrated that he is not to be con- sidered any more in middleweight| matters. He seems in short to have| reached the peak of his power and is now going down the other side. Kilbane, the featherweight | was the only titleholder to/ remain inactive during the winter.

When Benny disposed of Joe Welling and Richie Mitchell during the winter, he removed the really dangerous con- tenders from the field. “Old Man" Britton gave evidence in trouncing Ted Lewis that he is still the best of the welterweights. Lou Bogash has been considered as worthy of a chance for the title, but he is far from ready, as the “grand old man” knows too much for him, Joe Lynch has had a lot of con- tenders following him since he took the title from Pete Herman, but he also seems safely housed with the crown.

Announcement was made here by James O. Murfin of Detroit, a member of the board. Under the proposed plan no stu- dent would be permitted ‘to graduate without having taken a course in out- door athletics. ‘i Attention of the regents was called to the need for physical development of students by examination of young men for service during the war, Mr. Murfin said. Athletic participation would be required on the part of both men and women students, it was said. The work would be carried on under supervision of the new physical de- partment of the university. ‘Mr, Murfin announced he was en- deavoring to interest other universi- ties and cplieges in a plan whereby college athletes would not be barred from college games because of parti- cipation in professional sport. The proposal provides grouping of athletes into three classes, amateur, professional and college. He declared it was unfair to deprive a student of the opportunity to earn money to fin- ish his college career by barring him from engaging in professional con- tests. “College competition would be keener, the atmosphere surrounding college athletics would be purer, and there would be fewer lars.” he sald. “No one school could put this through alone but I hope the Western Confer- ence will take ation.
