Any ambitions fight promoter may have a chance to stage a champion- ship bout as may be seen by the fol- lowing letter: Sporting Editor: Dear Sir: Irish Patsy Cline is after a championship battle with Benny Leonard and wants to arrange with some Connecticut.promoter to pull off the contest. - .Cline has beaten every one of the light weights who stood in h: road for a title match with Leon- ard. He beat Willie Jackson in New York 50 badly that Jackson has never been any good as a fighter since, having fdllen an easy victim before Frankie Callahan and Lew Tendler. To prove he was Jackson's master, Cline took Willie on in Philadelphia and again hit him with everything but the wa- ter bucket, and had him practically knocked out at the final bell. John- ny Dundee took such a licking at the hands of Irish Patsy that the “Fighting (?) Wop” now tears for the “tall timber” at the mere mention of Cline’s name. Then Cline tackled Leonard and had the champion all but knocked out in a match in Philadel- phia. Patsy says six rounds was too short for him; that if he gets Benny for the twenty round route, he will wear the champion down and grab his laurels. There is a ton of money to back the sensational Irishman in such a battle. Very truly yours, HARRY POLLOCK, Manager Irish Patsy Cline. —— Yale Opens Swimming Season.

(Manager Hastead of the Pastime Athletics club is keeping in close touch with all the boxers who will work under the auspices of the club at the exhibition in this city the last of next week. Manager Hastead was at the snbmarine base recently’ to watch Saflor Jim Carroll 'go through his daily grind ‘in preparation for the coming fight with George Robinson. of Boston. Carroll first did about three miles of road work and then punched the bag for thirty minutes. He then took on five men for two rounds. apiece and at the end of his day’s training he was not even breathing heavy. When thig bout between the two colored fighters was announced most people were of the opinion that Carroll would be easy picking for the { Boston boy but since seeing Carroll|fication on the ground of dependents. in training it looks as though Rob- inson would have to put his best foot forward to win.

A New York, Jan. 18.—Inauguration of the government’s conservation regula- tions caused a pronounced diminutién in the volume of business on the stock exchange today.

In order to be popular the coach must win and in order to win there must be material of the ultra- physical type. 1 have heard coaches deny this. “In fact one of my own college mates went so far as to state he could develop teams without ma- terial. He was in another line of work right afterward. From a long experience ‘and study I may say with- out chance of challenge that a coach cannot win without material. Neither can he win with it if he is not wise jto the game—a preblem equal to run- ning a college at that. Now one of the points of attack upon the coach is just this: In order to win he must have the goods and he sees that he gets these goods. In consequence, proselyting, professional and .otherwise, is attributed to the coach. In fact, if you think of any evil of which -college sport is guilty you can immediately and without much research _attribute it to the willing to serve whenever he is call- ed.

This business of having & short-time job of lucrative salary at the mercy of that most fickle of goddesses, Victory, is unsettling, to say the least. I have known men to lose twenty-five pounds in a month, owing to such'a strain. I have never known a college prof to feel that way about his work.
