He made the distance in 47 2-5 seconds, which j8 but four-fifths of a second short of the world record made by Maxey Long on a straightaway quarter mile stretch. P If the Syracuse sprinter, who made his reputation I 1920 by capturing the 200 metre run in the-Antwerp Olympiad, does break the 300 yard record, he will be entitled to greater credit than goes to the present holder, Charley Paddock, of the University. of Southern California. who established it in April, 1921, at Redlands. The wing-footed California made the record on_a, straightaway track but Woodring, if the race against time is sanctioned, will not have that advan. tage. The cinder path in the Harvard stadium is limited to mot much more than 220 yards of straightaway, so that ‘Woodring would have to run at least the last 60 yards of the distance around a broad curve, The plan that the Syracuse runner has mapped out for himself is to continue alone after reaching the finish of one of the heats of the 220 yard run, so that only the placing of additional competent timers at the 300 yard mark will be re- quired and all interference with the reg- ular program will be obviated. Not less anxious than Woodring for the try at a new record is Tom Keane, Syracuse track coach, who prophesies that his protege Wiil lower the time if he runs. In a trial previous to the Pennsyl- vania relay, according to Keane,” Wood- ring_ went 300 yards in 30 2-5 seconds, one-fifth second above Paddock’s record.

SPORT WORLD BRIEFS Georges Carpentier, famous French boxer, who holds the world's light- heavyweight championship title, is coming to this country to defend his honors against the winner of the Am- erican match between Gene Tunney, titleholder, and Harry Greb, Pitts- burgh contender. Matchmaker Frank Flournoy of Madison Square Garden has announced receipt of a cablegram in which Carpentier professed his eag- erness to visit the United States again. In the message the French box- er requested that Flournoy submit a proposition by cable. This was done. The details of the proposition of ! course, were not disclosed, but Flour- noy exhibited confidence in andther visit by Carpentie» for an outdoor bout during the appreaching season: The American light-heavyweight championship battle between Gene Tunney, Greenwich Village idol, who holds the title, and Harry Greb. Pitts- burgh’ contender, which was sched- uled for Madison Square Garden on the night of May 26, has been advanc- {ed to May 23. The contest is slated for fifteen rounds. Frank Flournoy, Garden matchmaker, yesterday an- nounced the change in date after con- ferring with ¥rank Bagley, Tunney's manager, and Georgee Engel, manager of Greb. The reason for the change Flournoy said, is to afford additiopal time in which to prepare the Garden for its swimming season.

Conditions affecting the wheat market were largely reversed nevertheless during the Jast hour, and for a brief time prices were Bftaking rapidly, May showing a drop of 1-2c from early top figures. The setback was partly due to profit-taking on the part of traders who had been on the buying side of the market before noon. A more powerful bearish influence, however, came from reports that wheat had been bought at Missouri markets and at Buffalo and Toledo to come here, and that Minneapolis, St. Paul and Du- luth weme also to contribute to the Chi- cago supply.

Not/only are they criticizing the ref- eree, but their criticism includes a certain member of the mystic box- ing commission, who, it is said, told a party of Norwich fans that the Mys- tic promoters did mnot care whether they got any Norwich fans at the fight or mot. If this is true, and there is no reason to doubt the truthfulness of those that made the statement, it shows a fine spirit on the part of the Mystic fight promoters. Norwigh fans righteously resent the attitude taken by the member of the commission simply because they took exception to the referee’s decision which according to a local boxing au- thority was way off. Local people who attended the exhibition Monday eve- ning do not think that the promoters of the exhibition really wish them to stay away but that the words were the mere idle talk of the commissioner. As there is an average attendance at these exhibitions from Norwich of be- tween 25 and 50 at $2 per head it means quite a loss of revenue to the management should the Norwich fans decide to absent themselves from the exhibitions in the future. and Aubrey Boomer to join the ranks ning to come to America this season. It is not yet known definitely that the pair will come, but in the event {of their so doing, they will add not ttle strength to the already pow- 1 aggregation which will compete the national open title now held Jim Barnes of the Pelham Coun- Club. Johnny Kilbane, world’s feather- weight champion, decired recently that he was prepared to defend his title against any boxer in the country, provided he received the financial re- muneration to which he regards him- self as entitled. The amount he ex- pects for his services was not dis- closed. Kilbane made his statement in Madison Square Garden after discuss- ing with Frank Flournoy the pros- pect of a title bout. Rocky Kansas, probably will be Ben- ny Leonard’s opponent in the light- weight championship ten round contest to be staged at Michigan City, Ind, July 4 under the auspices of the Am- |erican Legion, Floyd Fitzsimmons, the matchmuker, announced recently. Ken Williams of the Browns new rival for Babe Ruth in home run hit- ting, is among the superstitious men of baseball. In the first place he al- ways sits in the same seat on the bench. The other players know his mental habit and tumble out of it as soon as he returns to the bench. Un- {less he is the first man to bat. Wil- liams while awaiting his turn to h always stands on the rubber home plate on the sidelines that the pitch- ers use for warming up. “It's silly to Dbe superstitious,” says Williams, “but it gives you a mental attitude that builds up confidence.” Ancther young heavyweight distin- guished himself last week when Joe Burke of Detroit handed a beating to Bob Martin. According to all accounts of the battle Burke made the heavy- weight champion of the A. E. F. look like a raw hand. Burke went on at the last moment, substituting for another man. The youngster proved to be a great surprise, for he cut the experi- enced Martin to ribbons. Burke has had only 12 bouts, of which he won nine and lost three. He is 24 and work- ed as a miner in Pennsylvania until he moved to Detroit. He is trained and managed by Jimmy Dunn, the man who made Johnny Kilbane featherweight champion. Mike Gibbons, veteran St. Paul mid- dleweight, and Mike O'Dowd, former world’s champion, are reported in hard training for their bout Saturday night on the occasion of the first outdoor show of the season in the metropoli- tan_district, at the Queensboro A. C. of Long Island City. Gibbons plans a trip to England if successful in the coming encounter. The St. Paul vet- eran contemplates the trip abroad in quest of a match against Ted (Kid) Lewis, former world's welterweight champion, who now holds several En- glish titles. The Princeton swimming team will be captained next year by William Stuart Powers, of Englewood, N. J. as a result of his election. Powers, a member of the junior class, prepared for college at Exeter. He swims the 50 and 100 yard events. Johnny Darcy, New York, light- weight is listed for three bouts within the next three weeks. His first will be against Johnny Cope at the Brigh- ton Club of Staten Island next Mon- day night, Young Angelo at Stamford, May 12 and Johnny Drummie at Madi- son Square Garden a week later, t An informal call for crew candidates was sounded Monday at Brown univer- sity and for the first fime since 1834 a Brown four swept over the still wa- ters of the Seekonk.

CHAMPION TAMERS” ARE THESE BOYS; FREAK STYLES MAKE THEM POPULAR —_— The Cincinnati Reds fared poorly in games with their western rivals, so the Morans will not try to get started at the expense of the eastern division. Home runs apparently are as plenti- ful this season as they were last year. Babe Ruth should find no trouble get- ting his share of circuit smacks after May 20. ‘ Harry Shriver, Brooklyn's rookie pitcher, looks mighty good to Uncle Wilbur Robinson., Bobby figures that Shriver will become a sensational win- ner with the Superbas. Pittsburgh fans are of the opinion that the Pirates will start the big tireworks soon. The team appears to have their old winning punch and once headed for the front will be hard to stop. AMERICA, FRANCE, BELGIUM PROTEST MEMORANDUM (Continued From Page One) and delivered to M. Rakovsky, who re- cejved it dressed In his pajamas. Belgium has not signed the memoran- dum, and word was received here this | evening that France had determined to stand by Belgium, but as yet there is no official announcement In Genoa of France’s action. It is believed that the conversations between Premier Poincare and M. Barthou, however, will have an important general effect on the confer- ence. All the leaders volced satisfaction at today's plenary session, believing that it embodied the inauguration of far-reach- ing efforts to improve the finances of Europe. The financial code at Genoa has been written, declared Sir Laming Worthington-Evans, chalrman of - the financial commission, and he believed it would prove as important as the historic Justinian civil code, the basis of world jurisprudence. The essential points are limitation of the {ssue of paper money, fixing parity with gold, economizing in the use of gold and co-ordination of gold. The United States, sald the chairman, with almost half the world’s gold could join in the future study of the problems without in- volving itself in political difficultles, and could help Europe as well as herself. The other speakers at the session were Signor Schanzer of Italy, M. Schulthess, of Switzerland, M. Picard, France, M. Tchitcherin, Russia. and Dr. Rathensu, Germany. 3. Tehitcherin alluded to the rights of communism and declared that it was, tmpossible for the Russian govern- ment to renounce its .control over ex- change operations, despite the fact that the financial report characterized this control as mischievious. The financial report, like the memor- andum of the powers to the ~Russians, emphasizes ‘that assistance to disorsan- ized countries should take the form of private, mot g mental credits. M. Tchitcherin insisted on government loans, and in this endorsed the views of M. Rakovsky, who had publicly declared that the soviet as the Russian govern- ment expected-a loan from the powers. In conclusion M. Tchitcherin volced the conviction that it was only by econ- omic collaboration of two worlds whose policy is based on different economic systems, that mankind could move .to- The Detroit Tigers still possess their | ward reconstraction and peace.

P.)—France sticks with Belgium on the policy toward the Russian soviet and M. Barthou will return to Genoa Friday, having the full approval of the government. This an- nouncement was made this afternoon at the conclusion of the cabinet meeting. M. Barthou made complete statement of the actions of the French delegation at the Genoa economic conference, and the ministers went over the text of the memerandum tothe soviet _delegates When the discussion was ended it was discovered that the seeming divergence between Premier Poincare and M. Bar- thou had disappeared. This difference of opinion arose more from a misunder- standing of the method of procedure than from the principle involved. M. Barthou has behind him the full cabinet in resisting any encroachment upon private property in Russia and has Instructions to remain solidly in har- mony with the Belgian delegation. The decision of the cabinet counéil is’ inter- preted in official quarters as meaning that the provisional signatures of the French delegation to the memorandum to the soviets is null and vold. and that it will be necessary for the French and Belglan delegations to agree on some modification concerning the question, which wauld
