Promoter Tex Rickard received a cablegram from Jrancois Descamps, Carpentier's manager, stating that the French boxer agreed to resuiting from the Willilam A. Brady and Charles B. Cochran from the promotion of the proposed bout, and the acceptance by Rickard of all responsibility for holding the contest. Manager Descamp’s-cabled message was as follows: “Registered letter dated March 1 received. Accept all’ its stipulations. Giving Morgan intructions renew ef- forts transfor my deposit your side. was a centage basis withdrawal of | Writing.” This message, Rickard said, was an of the new conditions made necessary since the promoter took over the bout independently. The cables carried Carpgntier's consent to an extension of time in selecting the battle-ground, giving Rickard until April 1 to make his selection, the ¥French boxer’'s willingness to engage Dempsey on a percentage basis and furnished evidence that Carpentier is not trying to avoid the through a technicality in not having | his deposit posted in this country as is stipulated by the terms of the original contract. Dempsey, through his man- ager, Jack Kearns, previously had agreed to changes in had acquiesced to Rickard’'s plea for time until April 1 to name the site where the title struggle will be held. Site Still Uncertain . The situation leading up to the ac-! tual entrance of the men into the ring combat thus is cleared up to the announcement by Rickard of where he will hold the bout. The promoter yesterday declared he has not yet positively determined on a site, and added that he was not in a position to discuss this phase of the prospective | bout just now. He expects within the next week to be able the location. The boxers then will be notificd, and will be advised ‘o begin serious training for the contest.

It is understood that Yale has also’voted favorably. In the past it has been customary to have entries in nine events and to ! count only first places, because of the expense of bringing additional men on the trip. The nine events in which men have been entered in former years are the 100 and 400-yard dash- es, the half mile, the mile and the two-mile runs, the 120-yard high hur- dles, the hammer throw and the broad and high jumps. . If the Britons decide to accept this yvear's challenge, however, it is ex- pected that the American universities will ask that second place at least, count also in the score total. This will afford better competition and prove a strong incentive for the men taking part. The English universities have re- cently abandoned the two-mile for the three-mile and this is likely to prove a stumbling block before the meet is finally scheduled. The Britons prefer the three-mile, which was one of the | ten events contested in their 5 to § b dual meet Saturday in London. Should Oxford and Cambridge ac- cept, the meet would come on June 18, a particularly good time, since there are no other big athletic events scheduled for the day and the Yale baseball games and crew race follow within the next week. On the Oxford team against Cam- bridge were two American first-place winners, G. P. Trowbridge, former Princeton athlete, who broke the tape in the 120-yard high hurdles in 15 4-5 seconds, and A. J. Ress, for- | merly of the University of Nebraska, who won the 16-pound shot put. The meet this year will be the fifth one between the rival universities. Tt was in 1899 at the Queen’'s club, Lon- | don, that they first met, England win- ning by a score of 6 to 4. Two yvears later Harvard and Yale were victorious by a score of 6 to 3 In Berkeley Oval, New York, and in 1904 they repeated their victory by | the same score at the Queen’s club. ¥n 1911 Oxford and Cambridge evened the number of victories by winning | five events to four on July 11 at the Queen’s club. Putnam of Oxford, an American Rhoades scholar, won the hammer throw for England in the de- ciding event of the day. SIDE CHANCERY IS BARRED. But Lewis May Use Other “Forms of Headlock on Mat With.

New York, March 24.—According to an announcement made yesterday !afternoon, Ed (Strangler) Lewis will not be compelled to eliminate the headlock in all its forms when wrestles John Pesek to a finish at the ! Seventy-first regiment armory® on April 4. Lewis will be forced to omit the side chancery hold, but the other styles of headlock do not come under the ban against the hold.

New York, March 24.—Mike O'Dowd, fighting Irishman of St. Paul, who formerly held the world’s middleweight title, will be one of ring competition for a period of at least { two months. The former champion was operated on for hernia yester- day at St. John's hospital,. Long Island city. Dr. H. V. Spaulding, who per- formed the operation, declared that O'Dowd would be confined to his hospital cot for about tWo weeks, and that he would be unable to box for two or three months. The operation was successful. O'Dowd was under the influence of the anaesthetic for about half an hour. Last night the former middleweight champion was resting - ecomfortably. Dr. Spaulding, following his cur- sory examination of O’Dowd when the boxek first sought medical atten- tion, and’' the operation yesterday, said he had reached the conclusion {that O’'Dowd received the injury in ! his bout against Johnny Wilson, mid- i dleweight champion, at Madison | Square Garden last Thursday night. lDr, Spaulding pointed out that or- | dinarily it is uncommon for a hernia | to result from external violence, but he sald his examination and facts submitted in connection with | O'Dowd’s_case led him to the con- !clusion that O’'Dowd was struck in lthe region of the groin in his re- cent bout. o / W, SUFFERS BLOW.
