The Millrose officials fi declared that they were pleased with ¢ -work accomplished by Sheppard his three years of effort, but fhat the course of action had been ontemplated for some time. Several Weeks ago rumors were rife #s to' & quarrel in the Milirose or- mnigation. It was said that Sheppard f ¢, relish the idea of any one in- ng with his work. This could | 5. be verifieds through Millrose of- fials, but nevertheless the rumor dito down. ppard enjoyed rather a success- ful pericd with the Millrose athletes. " Considerable credit is due the eoach ¢or the improvement in form shown by Villar, Kyronen, Charles Pores, | owic, Mike Devaney and | the other runners.

D N¢ mnvement for the abandonment of athletics at the University of Chi- cago on accdunt of the war has been started.

Jack Sharkey the West Side ban- tam, easily outpointed Young Solz- berg, of Brooklyn, in a ten round bout at the Harlem Sporting club last : might. The final three rounds furnisheed furious boxing, with Sharkey using a left jab effectively and pounding the ribs of Solzberg repeatedly. Solzberg ‘was’ unable to follow the pace of his opponent, only showing good in spots. Dean 'Howard McClenahan, chair- man of the committee on ’outdoor sports at Princeton University, an- nounced yesterday that it had been decided to abandon the Southern training trip of the Tiger baseball team because of the national situa- tion. The team was to have started south yesterday. The last of the memberk of the world champion Boston Americans who were dissatisfied with the salaries offered them came to terms yesterday, when Harry Hooper, the team’s star right fielder, signed a contract at Indianapolis. Young McAuliffe, featherweight champion of New . England, experi- enced little difficulty in outpointing Battling Reddy of New York in the | feature bout of ten rounds at the Ca- sino in Bridgeport last night. Mec- Auliffe packed up point after point in the opening rounds and was de- serving of honors in the "first five rounds. Reddy was entitled to the seventh and eighth while the others were evenly distributed. Both bovs fought a fast, cleah battle. There wers no knockdowns, ' C The Journal-Courier bowling team of New Haven finished in 60th place at the recent American Bowling Con- |/ gress, held in Grand Rapids recently, which, according to the official stand- ing made public last night by Secre- tary Abe . Langtry. New Haven's score of 2713° barely brought the, team into the prize money locals re- ceiving a triple over the entry fee. Mort Lindsey, captain of the team, re- ceived about $50 over the enry fee as a result of\his good score in the sin- gles. None'of the bowlers figured in the all-events prize money. " WHITMAN STILL BALKS New York State Governor Listens to Sport Writers Wlu for Retention of Frawley Law. F Albany, April 6.—A score or more sporting writers throughout the state made a vain plea before Governor ‘Whitman yesterday for the continua- tion of boxing under the Frawley law, which established the present State Athletic Commission. They suggest- ed the appointment in a semi-official capacity of a committee of twenty- four of their number to advise and co-operate with the commission in an endeavor to purge the sport of its ob- Jectionable features and persons. Governor Whitman listened politely and attentively to the arguments, but later indicated that he had not changed his determination to abolish the commission and end’ professional boxing in this state.

President Wilson’s reference to the attempt to cmbril Mexico against the United States is deemed improper reading for Germans, nor are they ! allowed to hear President Wilson's reasons for the conviction that the autocratic German government haz rot only no friendship for America but is ready at any opportunity ' to plot against its security. The r¢ference 'to dynasty wars, too, is twisted into a shape which has aroused indignant comment from every German newspaper. i The full text of the message was received in Copenhagen only yester. day and reads almost like anothe? document as compared with the ear- lier version.’ The first part of the two versions is substantially the same, except for condensations and omis- ion of non-essential matter. The sec- ond part has been cut wholesale. The president’s reasoning on the inadvis- ability of armed neutrality is given incompletely. There is no reference te the proposed financing of the Allies, and the paragraphs relating to Russia are dismissed in two sentences. Only the briefest summary is made in the German papers of the concluding par- agrapbs of tho message. FOR BERNSTORFF. Rumor Aj te Him German ) +- ter to Sweden.
