This will be the first appearance of Darcy in the ring since he arrived in this country. Experts are of the opinion that Dil- lon will make the man from the anti- podes go some in their coming ten round go. Although the giant killer made a poor showing in his recent bout with Al McCoy the excuse offered for Dillon’s poor showing in this bout was that he was anxious to save his hands for the battle with Darcy. The latter has been in training at Goshen and is In fine shape. Those who have watched him work are of the opinion he will more than make it interesting. for the man from Indianapolis. Lay- out shows three views of Darcy in the training camp at Goshen.

Meanix, the former Col- by college athlete, showed greal promise in the hurdles at Harvard’s midwinter carnival yesterday, when. running from scratch on a slow track, he won the 45-yard high hurdles in 6 1-5 seconds. One of the best of the other performances was that of H. R. Bechtel, a' freshman, who ran the 910-yard Trace in 2 minutes 10 1-5 seconds. C. S. Babbitt, the varsity pole vaulter, cleared 11 feet 6 inches to win with ease over R. Harwood, a freshman vaulter, who later cleared the same height. The scratch man, ‘W. Blanchard, '17, won the 35-pound weight. event with a throw of 40 feet 6 inches. The senior relay team won the ten- man event from the freshmen, cov- ering the 2,600 yards in 5§ minutes 10 seconds. Columbia university defeated Yale in a dval swimming meet here last night, 33 to 20. H. E. Vollmer of Columbia won the fifty, 100 and 220- vard swims, adcd- as anchor man in the relay, won that event. Columbia won the water. polo contest by a score of 30 to 1. The 'VdSsar college faculty has vot. ed that ability to swim shall be rc quired for a degree after 1920, ex cept in cases where students are ex- cused of physical weakness. “Chick™ Ganin, first baseman’ with the Cleveland Americans, was pur- chased yesterday by the Chicago club of the American league. Gandil form eraly played with Chicago and later with Washington. Three members of the Giants upon whom Manager McGraw is building his hopes left today for Marlin, Tex., under care of John B. Foster, secre- tary of .the chib. They are Heinie Zimmeran, third baseman; Pol Per- ritt, pitcher, and Davy Robertson, outfielder. All the regulars have re- ceived instructions to report at the spring camp not later than Sunday, S0 as t¢ be ready for work by Mon- day. ;oster's trio of stars will be joined by several others en route. ,Most of the players have arranged to meet Foster at St. Louis. With the ar- rival; of the regulars at Marlin Mon- day McGraw will have a small army of ball players from which to pick the team to send after the pennant. The signed contract of Jim Bagby, pitcher of the local American league team_was received yesterday. Rabbitt Maranville, crack short- stop of the Boston ‘Nationals, who has been at odds with the -club manage- ment over his salary for next season, notified President Haughton from his home in Springfield last night that he had accepted the club's terms. It is understood that he will be paid about $7,500 this season. Because of the iliness of his wife and child the short- stop_will not join the team at the spring . training camp for a week or longer-after pragtice begins. / { Bringing to a head the campaign to oust William Hollenback as coach of the Syracuse university football team, members of the football squad almost to a-man yesterday and today signed a petition addressed to -~ Hollenback himself, requesting his resignation. It is not known what action the coach will ‘take,. but it is generally believed he will resign, especially since the sentiment of the members of the team has been so outspoken against him, Plans to sell the franchise, players and grounds of the St. Louis Nationals are being perfected here today by James C, Jones, attorney for the club. Jones:said he had aobtained the con- sent of ‘the owners fa dispose of the Beaten in. Season READY FOR ACTION National League chaim'pions Ar- rive in Camp Brooklyn, March 2.—The Brooklyn baseball club, champion of the Na- tional league in 1916, began spring training at Hot Springs, Ark. today, under the direction of the veteran pitcher Jack Coombs. -The advance guard which reported direct from the several homes, reached the famous health resort yesterday. This party included be- sides’ First Lieutenant Coombs, Pitch- ers Ed. Appleton, Leon J. Cadore; L. R. Cheney, W. G. Dell, Walter Mails, Rube Marquard, Ed.

President Chayles H. Ebbets, Gus Getz and Fabrique, the shortstop drafted from Providence, will leave * Monday afternoon from this city. ‘A number of Brooklyn newspaper men ' will accompany them. Wilbert Robin- son and Malone, a second baseman from the St. Paul club will ioin this party at Harrisburz, Penn. Hi Myers will entrain at Pittsburgh. The play- ‘ ers of fghe second squad to go direct from their homes are George Cut-] shaw, Fred Merkle, Ivy Olson, Hick- | man, Casey Stengel, Jimmy 'Johnson, Zach Wheat and T. W. Fitzsimmons, a rookie infielder. MAY REMAIN IDLE Hold Out Players to Get Cool Re- 5 i ception From Quakers Management l —Moran to Interview Whitted. Philadelphia, March 2.—No fur- ther effort will be made by President BakKer, of the Phillies, ‘to induce the hold out players fo sign a contract at the terms offered him. and has writ- ten the club asking permission to arrange @ -trade for himself. This will be denied by President Baker, and if Whitted does not sign with the Phillies he will' not play with any team in organized baseball this year. ‘There will be nd compromise: in- the case of Whitted, Niehoff or Kan- ! tlehner, a trio of players who are holding out for ‘more money, It-is very likely that Manager “Pat” Mo- an will either stop off at Durham, N. C. ,on the way south next week to séeWhitted, or: order.- the, fleet: | fiooted outfielder to report at St. Pe- tersburg for a conference, ‘but - no. ffort will be made to get Niehoff. who is kicking against a reduction of $1,500 in his salary. Kantlehner, the | squthpaw obtained from Pittsburgh last season, will be released to the { minors, and. can either sign or re- main idle. The lefthander has yet to prove that he can hold down a ! regular job with. a major league club, and has about lost his chance .‘of making good for Moran by holding out. 2 i Catcher Killifer, who was expected i here this week to fix up terms, wired ! yesterday that he ‘would mot be in town until next Monday. There is not much difference between Killifer and the club, the one condition be- ing on the number of games Killifer catches during the season, and this matter can easily 'be adjusted. With Paskert Ernle Walker and Cravath signed up. the Phillies will have a | first class outfield to open the season with if Whitted refuses to sign, and Moran has enough extra material on hand to make a trade for an out- fielder, if he needs one. —_— property for $350,000. The stock will be sold to the general public. With each share a season ticket will be given, the ticket to become the prop- erty of some one under 16 years of age, . » Frankie Callahan of New York last night was awarded the decision over Jimmie \Hanlon of Denver by Referee Al Wambsgars who stopped their scheduled twenty-round fight in New Orleans at the opening of the nine- teenth round, saying the bout'was too one-sided. Phillips-Andover Academy students at a mass meeting yesterday voted unanimously to accept the faculty, proposal of military training as a sub- stitute for compulsory athletics. About 350 students are expected to devote four hours a week to drilling, beginning at once. It was also voted to cancel the year’s sports schedule excepting only the baseball and track meet. It is regarded as likely that Jesse Hawley, Dartmouth, '09, who coached | schedule for its activities Andover in the fall of that year, and ; latterly coach of elevens at the Uni- versity of Iewa, will be named by the Dartmouth Athletic Council as head coach, to succeed Frank Cavanaugh. It is said that the Western alumni, headed by W. E. McCormack of Chi- cago, are behind Hawley and the voice which the Middle West has in Dartmouth affairs is by no means in- significant. s Opénéf- s the Joy Out of Life wwos || DODGERS REPORT |COLUMBIA SEVEN TO MEET HARVARD Blue and White Oarsmen Agree to Meet Crimson o New York, March 2.—A dual rage between varsity crews of Columbia and Harvard universities will be: rowed at Boston, May 19.
