It 1s understood that there is @ splendid chance of freshmen being allowed to compete at the next in- tercolleginte track and field cham- . pionships. For the fourth timé in five years @ suggestion to this effect will be made at the annual meeting of the LC, A A. A. A, which will take Place in this city next Sunday. Previous attempts to change the constitution so as to permit fresh- men to compete have been made, but were defeated by close votes. This time Yale is leading the fight in the freshmen’s cause and the mat- ter has been laid before the Execcu- tive Committee, which body will see that it is satisfactorily presented at the association meeting. Another proposal which will be submitted to the committee will be @ change in the association constitution permitting the contestants at all championship meets six preliminary trials inthe weight events and the ‘broad jump. | The desirability of such a change | was manifested at the intercollegiate games held in the Harvard Stadium last May. L. A.

The |Ithacan cleared 22 feet 9 Inches in the dual meet against Harvard and 22 feet 9% inches against Pennsyi- vania. Graham did 22 feet 5 inches \n the dual meet with and made several other excellent jumps during the season. In the champion- ship meet both were favored for places, yet were shut out in the pres Iiminaries and saw the final won with @ leap of 22 feet 8% inches, These proposed amendments will be considered at the meeting next Su: day and arrangements made to - mit them, ther with other gestions, to. the 1.

In addition to the tennis court there Is a perfectly equipped gym, swimming pool, Turk- ish bath and every other comfort for training indoors during the colé weather. It will be known as the Green Tree Tennis Court, named after the racing establishment of Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney. ‘The building is connected with the Whitney mansion by a glass-covered Passage to an elaborately furnished |reception room. The building has a glass roof letting in the sunshine at all hours of the day. On the main floor of the building is the tennis court. On the floor below Is a swim- ming pool 30 by 15 feet, so thet after the matches the players can have their plunge. At the northern end of the pool is a turkish bath with skilled operators in attendance at all times.

There are lounging rooms, a reading room and other conveniences, An exten- sion erected at the end of the build- ing provides garage room for about fifty automobiles.

The Durable Dane declares he is sick and tired of all kinds of fighters hooking the name “Battling” onto themselves, and he proposes to hold for himself the name he made famous through eighteen years of the hardest work ever ac- corded any champion. “Battling” is Nelson's real name, being handed to him at the altar; and being a favorite name among the Danes, He believes he has an exclu- sive right to it, and that the other ringmen of more or less repute who have appropriated it should be on- joined and either prevented from using it or pay @ royalty on the Nelson copyvight. One of his first actions this week | will be to seek an injunction to pre- vent Dan Morgan from billing his heavyweight fighter, Levinsky, as| ‘Battling’ Levinsky. Nelson will co to court and ask that both Morgan and Levinsky be prevented from us- ing the name unless a business ar- rangement ts made with the Nelson | forces. Bat is taking no chances of going to law without the best of legal ad- vice. He went right down to Wall Street and retained Andrew A. Mc- Laren, of the legal firm of Hoadley, Lauterbach and Johnson, Instructing the attorney to go the limit in pre- venting the use of his name unless proper authorization is given. 4 “It has cost me a lot of money to advertise, the name of ‘Battling,’ declares Nelson. “It has taken me - eighteen years to Place it_on the high- est plane of pugilism. The name is my own and I have a perfect legal right to It. To-day it represents something great in @the world of amusement and pughism. It is a standard trade mark of g00d goods. It represents the highest mark in its own particular field. “Every city and every fight club has its own ‘Battling.’ It makes me blush to see some of them. Their right names are Isadore, Mike and Percy. They are trying to make money through a namo made famous by another man.
