He post- poned his engagement with the movie men and put in a busy afternoon with his trainers in the clubhouse gymnasi- um. Willard ‘Never Looked Better Con- ditioned. He went much faster than when he took his so-called “final workout” yes- terday. He put in a full session with the pulleys and repeated his shadow boxing. Then he took on Hemple, Rodel and Walter Monahan for two rounds each. There was no playful tapping in any of the rounds and all three of his sparring partners fre- quently felt the stisg of Willard's jabs, jolts and hooks. The champlon never looked in brighter condition than when he finished this afternoon. Moran Went Along Leisurely. Trainer Willle Lewis let Moran go along in a leisurely way today. In the morning he took a short walk and then ate a hearty breakfast. He spent the greater part of the forenoon read- ing his mail, the size of which made the dining room look like a branch postoffice. He seemed to enjoy the correspondence, but always found time to greet callers pleasantly. He has not developed a “grouch,” although he | is on edge, but he did not seem to be much interested when he went through some light work Dbefore the movie | cameras in the gymnasium. Moran’s| training partners are well pleased with | the cHEilenger's _condition. Willie | Lewis, who has had charge of Mor: \n1 in_his training for his fights on both sides of the Atlantic, said today: Moran Strong and Confident. “I never saw Frank look so well or| in such splendid condition before an: of his previous battl He is strom er, more vigorous and vastly more con- | fident than when he trained for his last two bouts with Coffey, and, what's more, his hands are in fine shape, which was not the case when he met | Coffey last January.

In less than an hour after the gal- lery tickets were put on Madison Square Garden today every | | clinches and in the breakaw lathle one was disposed of, and hundreds of would-be purchasers were turned away. There were many disgruntled and disappointed men in line who could not reach the window before the sale was over, and some of them com- plained that the speculators had been favored. The show corporation which is conducting the bout announced that any intimation of favoritism in the sale of tickets was preposterous. The management had made every effort to prevent speculators from obtaining a large pumber of tickets, it was sald, by refusing to sell more than two to any one person. Quarters for Moving Picture Machines. There was some difficulty in provid- ing euitable accommodations in the garden for moving picture machines. It was finally decided to place them on a platform which will be suspended from the second balcony in such a way as not to interfere with the view of the ring by persons in the seats un- derneath. Doubt About Rul Some doubt appears to exist in the camps of both Willard and Moran re- garding the rules under which the bout will be fought. There has been con- siderable talk about hitting in the clinches and in the breakawa: A study of the contracts which the principals signed with Promoter Rick- ard shows clear! however, that the bout is to be conducted under the rules and regulations of the New York state athletic commission. This code differs widely from Marquis of Queensberry rule: are the standard of both boxing and prize ring fighting the world around. The Queensberry rules do not restrain a boxer from punching an opponent at any time during a clinch and it is un- derstood that the principals must pro- tect themselves at all times, both the The rules of the New York state commission, on the other hand, distinctly provide that there shall be no hitting in the breaks. The regula- tions covering these points are as fol- lows: Kidney Punch is Forbidden. “The kidney punch or blow shall be srbidden in’ all conte: The back- unch or blow is also forbidden. 1test_e's shall break clean and MARKET WAS LISTLESS.

Deyo Put Under Ban By Faculty For| Deyo, Princeton’s star pitcher, has fallen under the ban be- cause he plaved summer ball at Au Sable, in the Adriondacks. The sto he vo he D- an is backed up by the faculty comittee on out- door sports. Deyo's case involves a nice point in amateuri: Dean McClenahan and the committee consider that the pith- er has lost teur standing, be- cause he violated an implied agree- ment with the dean. The authorities’ stand is based on at to The dean says that the pitcher spent little time on the greens and that the ar work referred to consisted in the main of on to | ng the | ip er the golf greens in return for his board, | WAR WORK BUSIES to ic perform similar work, and his pitching was to be in the nature of playfy! exercise. It was shown to the committee that the star pitcher spent little time on the greens and did little work of any reg- ulgr sort. He was treated like a guest, not an employe and had his meals In the main dining room, whereas most of the other members of the team ate in_the second dining room. Rumors of action in the Deyo case have been prevalent with Increasmg currency for the last two months, but Dean McClanahan has made no an- nouncement because of his desire to hove the whole maiter receive as little publicity as possible. When college opened last fall the faculty committee and McClanahan investigated o pointed out to the faculty that his agreement provided for care of the greens or similar work. The similar work was taken by the faculty to mean milar manual work, and it was so erstood by ghe d n in the spring, when Deyo first asked for permission to play. Deyo sald that so long as he performed work of any sort he thought he wi ng up to the spirit and let- of his vith the dean.
