Special to Tho Journal.
London, Dec.- Pas a, result of the
persistent campaign organized against
him by many leading players in the
lawn tennis world, Archda1e Palmer has
resiged his position as secretary of the
Au-Eng gland Lawn Tennis club. The
committee of the club. which held an
emergency meeting today, has accepted
the resignation and, the reform party is
naturally jubilant over what it claims
as decisive victory for it's views.
Palmer, on the other hand, declares
that he .retires, not because he admits
the justice of the agitators' demands.
but because he is sick Of the whole con.
trade. He points out that he offered
to resign the secretaryship Immediate
ly after he was appointed manager Of
the Messrs. SlaZenger, manufacturers,
but was induced to retain the office at
the unanimous desire of the commit
tee.
w. H. Colliuns, president of the asso-
citation, says that while he deplores
Palmer's retirement from Wimbledo
on personal grounds. he admits that the
event will materially relieve the situa.
ton and will undoubtedly tend to bring
all parties together again. Palmer's re-
tirement must undoubtedly exercise ma
terial effect upon the game, since he
was manager Of the last two interna.
tional matches in which America en-
gagged, and few organizers in England
possess his great experience. At the
present moment the question of ap-
pointing his successor will be left in
allegiance, as Palmer will not 90 out Of

YALE FACULTY GETS

Too Much Dipping Into Affairs

Special to The Journal,

New Haven, Conn.,, Dec. 22.-Yale
undergraduates think that their college
faculty is growing strenuous in insist
ing on it's rights to interfere in athletic
management. It was learned that the
faculty during the football season just
closed, interfered in two ways never at
tempted before
The First-It notified the captain
that one or more certain players, altho
technically eligible, should be removed
from the eleven.
Second-It told the captain that GER
tain coaches were Objectionable to the
faculty and that they should not appear
at the Yale field during the season.
The recommendation of the faculty
was taken and both Objectionable play
ers and coaches disappeared from the
field. This is a step never before taken
by the faculty. Announcement was
made today by the faculty that it was
pleased with the way in which the un-
dergraduates ran athletics last year
and that it could be set down for GER
tain that there would be no extended
faculty investigation this winter into
sports. The faculty say that they have
no idea of barring any of the sport now
on the Yale calendar, altho they think
that basketball needs an overhauling. .
. Their latest invasion Of athletics was
in the adoption of the baseball schedule.
They decided that no. more games with
preparatory schools should be played,
that the eastern trip should be curtailed
in length and number and they should
refuse to ratify the deciding game with
Princeton because the date cited con-
1icts with annual Yale scholarship ex-
aminations. :. -.

IN THE AD|RONDACkS
Famous New York Sporting
Writer a Victim of Tuber- Il
culosis.
BY Publishers Press.

New York, Dec. 22.-Word was re-
ceived in this city today Of the death
OF John Boden, Jr., racing secretary of
the Brighton Beach Racing association,
last night at Saranac Lake from tuber-
culosls He has resided at Saranac lake
for the past two years in the hope of

continued to perform his duties as Sec
rotary almost up to the last.
John Boden, Jr., was one of the best
known turf authorities Of the country
and for more than ten years was sport
ing editor and turf writer of the New
York Press. He was appointed racing
secretary Of the Brighton Beach asso-
citation about FIVE years ago, but con-
tinued his turf writing in conjunction
with this work, at one time being the
turf editor of both the Evening Sun and
Daily American. He was secretary of
the Pimlico meeting as well and was
interested in the stable Of which his
cousin, John Boden, ST., secretary of
the racing commission, is the head.
In addition to being an authority on
all things pertaining to horse racing,
no one was superior to "Junior' Bo-.
den as a prize fighting expert in the
days when Sullivan, Corbett, Fitzsim-
mons and McAuliffe were in their
prime. T.. -
He'was born in st. John, N. B., about
thirty-nine years ago, and came to New
York in 1889, in that time acquiring a
reputation with sporting men that ex-
tended across the continent. .. The flu
neral will take place on the arrival of
the 1910 train Monday morning from
the Grand Central station. Interment
will be in Holy Cross cemetery, Flat.

He has received several hattering of:

The best natural hills are along the
