H Sporting men already are discussing the ten round, no decision glove fight in which Champion Jess Willard and Frank Moran will clash for a purse of $70,000. While many different views are expressed by men who follow the fortunes of the prize ring so closely that they usually know what they are talking _ about, the general opinion seems to be that Willard cannot be knocked out, no matter how strenu- ously Moran' may try to hang a sleep | waliop on the point of his jaw, says Joe Vila, the New York Evening Sun; man. But whether Willard wil make a genuine effort to floor Moran for the fatal count is a question that the wise men are not attempting to answer. There is no doubt that Wilard can hit with great power, particularly with the right hand. He has a tre- mendous reach, and when he lets fly either hand he can put nearly 250 pounds into the punch. Willard land- ed a straight right hander over Jack Johnson's heart in the 1§th round of the big scrap in Cuba last year. This blow had so much strength behind it that the negro champion almost col- Japsed. Yet Wilard, slow and cau- ticus, not try this wallop again until’ the 26th round, when he knock- ed Lil' Arthur cold. Equipped with remarkable punch- ing ability Willard, in the opinion of many competent students of pugilism probably would send Moran into Dreamland the first time he happened to reach “the button” — another name for the point of the jaw. But in ac- complishing _such a feat, Willard would be compelled to open up his de- ience, thereby running the risk of re- ceiving a damaging punch in re- turn. Moran may be clumsy and lacking in boxing _skill, but he can hit with the right hand hard enough to drop or daze even the champion providing ke reaches the proper mark. The fact that Moran is dangerous so long as he can retain sufficient strength to swing his right from the ground would seem to indicate much caution on Willard's part, a defensive fight by the champion. who cannot lose the world’s championship title unless Mor- an scores a knockout or wins on a foul. Going back to Moran's 20 round fight with Jack Johnson in France nearly two years ago it must be re- memebred that Johnson, in just fair condition, never was in_trouble, ex- cept from his own exertions. Moran was outclassed in boxing to suh a degree that if Johnson had been able to punch with his old vigor the white man would not have stayed the lim- it. It is conceded that Johnson was in about the same shape, physically, when he fought Wilard in Cuba; vet the nesro, after putting up a_ brave fignt for 15 rounds, discovered that Wilard, unhurt and wonderfully strong, was invincible. So far sporting men have no rea- son to believe that Willard and Mor- an will have an understanding when they enter the ring—an agreement to box for ten rounds without trying for a knockout and to make such an even thing of it that another mill, say at 20 rounds at New Orleans, would be extremely profitable. HARVARD VARSITY CREW ROWING SEASON. Big Squads Report for Early Work With Few Veterans. Harvard’s varsity rowing season has started. William Haines, the former Union Boat Club_professional, who has succeeded Jim Wray; Captain Mor- gan and R. F. Herrick, '90; the new sraduate head coach, greeted one of the biggest squads that ever reported for early work on the machines. The coaches have plenty of ma- terial but as the season starts almost every place in the 'varsity shell seems decided. Captain Morgan has five other members of last years eight, the only losses being Murray, the bow oar, and Harwood, who rpwed at No. 4. 'Talcott rowed bow for the second crew in 1915 and Whitmarsh was No. 4. Both rowed last fall with the reg- ular eight. The stern half of the boat remains intact, with Lund stroke; Cabot, 7; Parsons, 6, and J. Mitten- dorf, 5. The other veterans are Steb- bing, No. 3; and Captain Morgan, No. SPORTING NOTES. “George Stovall and Hel Chase ave free agents,” says L. C.

Intercollegiate Regatta Will be Rowed at Poughkeepsie if Quakers Agree to Compete on June 17—Otherwise They Meet on Cayuga Lake June 23—Columbia and Cornell Favor Poughkeepsie. New York, Feb. 23.—Responsibility for selecting the scene of this year's intercollegiate regatta rests with the University of Pennsylvania rowing authorities, according to a statement tonight by Morton G. Bogue, chair- man of the board of stewards of the Rowing Association. If the Philadel- phia oarsmen will agree to compete on June 17 the race will be rowed at Poughkeepsie. Otherwise the crews will meet on a three and one-quarter mile course on Cayuga Lake June 23. Mr. Bogue has received a letter from the New York Central Railroad com- pany decliiing to operate an observa- tion train on the west shore at Poughkeepsie on June 30 or July 1st, the two days when tidal conditions will be the best for rowing, or on June 24, when the stewards were willing to concede a point and row the race upstream, contrary to tradition. Both Columbia and Cornell, the other members of the rowing associ- ation, are’ willing to race at Pough- keepsie on June 17, although Cornell naturally prefers having the regatta held at Ithaca. Interference with fin- al examinations is the reason assign- ed by Pennsylvania for its inability to row on June 17. The University au- thorities are said to have refused to send members of the faculty to Poughkeepsie to conduct the examina- tions for the oarsmen in their rowing quarters as has been done in the past. Alumni of the universities will enter crews in the regatta are expected to exert all the pressure possible in fav- or of Poughkeepsie because it is much moe accessible by rail than Ithaca.
