JACK EVERHARDT HOME
FROM FOREIGN TRIUMPHS
snec!al DISPATCH to The Star.


NEW YORK. April Jack Everrardt
the o!d-tine lightweight, is back In town
after an extended tour of South Africa and
India, where he got hack into the ring and
won three fights, beating a cna 1,pion each
time.
Eycrhardt eft here last July and went
direct to johannesburg, South Africa, where
he spent the time sightseeing until one Tom
Dingy, the Aft can mil IieWeight champion,
began getting TOO arrogant He heard that
Everharat had been a star of the ring Ia
this country. and forthwith hurled ridlcule
at jack. Of course, fight followed and
multitCdes went to see the American sIaugh-
tered by their own champ. Mr. Dingy
iastet al of three and a half rounds with
Everhardt. takios the count suddenly and
ungrac efully in the fourth. Dingy had
been quite some" round that dump" and
the news OF his downfall spread quickly
When Eyerhardt reached Bombay his
fame had preceded him, and he was chaI-
lenGel by every scTapper in the station
He picked out the best man of the lot. Tom
Lewis the middleWeight champion of India
They fought on December last. and in the
middle of the sixth round Jack slung over
the Slumber soak on Mr.. Lewis jaw.
EYerharGt went from there to Calcutta
where he was met at the depot, or maybe
It was AT Clancy's, right near the depot,
by all the fighters in town. One Gypsy
Smith Of the Royal Indian army had been
beating up all corners for more than a wear
before h.yerhardt wandered in. He lasted
one minute and thirty-two seconds of the
first round.
Eyerhardt was hailed as king over there
after that, and 1t feels strange to him now
to be back on Broadway, where he attracts
no more attention that a lamppost.

INDICTMENT WEATHER
HANDICAPS YALE CREWS

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW HAVEN, April when the Yale
oarsmen were obliged to begin the rowing
season with exceptionally poor prospects
this year they were consoled by the belief
that they were favored at least by the
weather in being able to get out on the
harbor much earlier than usual.
They took this advantage as a sign that
luck was not entirely against them. and
We're convinced that, although they lacked
experienced candidates, with the longer pc
Rod o. training the new men would attain
a higher standard of development than has
been possible in former years.
They counted too high, however. for the
weather. which In February held out such
hopes, has been anything but faithful TO
what 1t appeared to promise then. 1t ap-
peared to have taken delight In getting the
oarsmen on the river and then treating
them TO a cold spell. The climatic condi-
tions have been so variable that no con-
sistent work has been possible, and the
Yale crews, with the approach of the row.
ing season, do not seem to be much further
along than they were last year at this
time, despite the additional month of prac-
tice
The work of both varsity and freshman
squads for the past month has consisted
chiefly IN rowing short stretches OF about a
mile under the direction OF Coach Kennedy
In the launch.

Hoppe, SIosson, SChaefer,

Hardly less interest will be felt in the

piouship match between Slosson and Hoppe.
Both of these eXrerts will participate. and
in addition jacob Schaefer, Orlando Morn

was doubt about Hoppe taking part At

tries were closed without him. Then the
promoters Of the tournament, convinced
that its success would lie impaired by his
absence. effected an arrangement whereby
ne would take part, This caused some dis
satisfaction on the part of the other play
