AMERICAN CREWS
AND SCULLERS
DEBARRED

LONDON. Dec. 15.--As a result OF
disclosures during the investigation
held by the National Association OF
Amateur Oars1nen OF America that the
expenses Of the crew of the Vesper
Boat Club Of Philadelphia, which rowed
at Henley in 1905. had been paid IN
part by public subscription. which dis
qualified them under the laws OF the
Amateur Rowing Association OF Eng
land, and because the officers OF the
American Association had certified as
to the crews snateurism without due
inquiry. the stewards OF the Henley
regatta passed a resolution today under
which all American crews and scuilerS
are debarred from competition at Hen
lev regattas until the American Rowing
authorities complete an agreement with
the Henley committee such as already
exists with the French, German, Dutch.
Belgian and Canadian associations.
As first proposed, the resolution.
which was passed after amendment.
unuualifiedly debarred crews and soul
iers from America but Fletcher. who
introduced it minated that his idea
was only to make this temporary, IN
order to give the Americans time Ito
nut their house in order" This step.
however. was considered far TOO
drastic as many oarsmen did not be-
lieve that all the Americans should
suYer for the sins Of the Vespers and
the officers OF the National Associa-
ton
/ II was. therefore, decided to deoar
I the crews OF any country not having
( an association in agreement with the
Henley committee 1t Is believed that
this resolution Will induce the National
Association OF Amateur Oarsmen to
make such arrangements.

was held under the presidency OF J.

Among others present were Lord Des-

CLEVER ATHLETES
MAY BE LOST TO
STANFORD

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Dec. 10
scholarship committees action, which
are always the main issue at this pc
riod of the college year, will be await
ed anxiously by the undergraduates of
Stanford University. If the action of
the dreaded funk out" committee Is
harsh with the freshman class the
hopes of successful cardinal track
team viii be severely shaken. The
number of clever performers in the
first wear class is phenomenal, but the
report is current that while the major
ity of the freshmen athletes are good
workers on the cinder path and ath-
letic fields, many Of them have fallen
below the standard set by the faculty,
and will stand. In line to be suspended
at the end of the present term.
Special conditions have been set down
by the faculty for the first year stu
dents, which are more lenient by one
third than that required of older under
graduates. A first year man has to
make only one-third of all OF his uni
versity credits in the first semester. If
this margin Is neglected he is Obliged
to withdraw from the university.
The track performers will be espe-
ctally affected by the action of the fac
ulty The first year class contains field
event men who will do much to win
the intercollegiate meet next spring II
they are allowed to compete. In the
pole vault, broad jump and high jump
high school graduates of good record
have entered Bellah. the freshman from
Hanford. who in his high school days
attained a record of over II feet In the
pole vault, has been in attendance this
semester, as has Crowley of the Throop
Polytechnic of Pasadena Crowley IS
also a pole vaulter. In this event Scott
OF Belmont school is regarded as pos
sible material. Scott is expected to
make good in the long jump rather
than in the pole vault. This year so
far he has been jumping in the vicinity
OF 81 feet Bellah and Epson OF Sacra-
mento High took places in this event
in the field meet which terminated the
fall training.
The track events are well filed by
the 1910 athletes. Pomeroy of Palo
Alto In the sprints, Helsley of Modesto
in the hurdles and Maundrell OF San
Francisco In the long runs are among
the prominent runners. Several crack
high school athletes are heraided to
enter at the beginning OF the new
semester. among these is Vail, the
record holding pole vaulter of the OAK
land High School.
The track team will train in the com
/ ing spring on the new cinder path
which is probably equal tos any on the
coast. 1t is a quarter-rnile lap affair,
with a a20-yard straightaway for the
sprints and hurdle races. The bleach
ers will accommodate 5000 persons and
gre arranged to give full view of the
sprints from start to finish.-
with the outlook rosy in athletic cir
cles. the upper classmen are assisting
the freshmen in their studies when
ever possible and are hoping for le-
niencv on the part of the scholarship
officials. The faculty has already made
one concession to the freshmen ath-
ietes by allowing them to compete ir
| intercollegiate athletics. The members
| OF the Berk eiey. committee were OPP
posed to the plan.

MOVING PICTURES
SHOW O'BRIEN-
BURNS FIGHT

The moving pictures of the O'Brien-
Burns fight on Thanksgiving eve at
Los Angeles Were given their first
public presentation in this city last
might at Walton's Pavilion. The place
was crowded and the spectators paid
tribute to the excellence of the pic
lures by frequent applause. The train
ing scenes at Tommy Burns quarters
were first projected on the screen and
gave an excellent view of the exercises
INDUCED in by the heavyweight while
he WAS preparing for the battle in the
ring.
O'Brien's training quarters on the
edge of the ocean were next shown.
and a comparison of the two men could
gives the theatrical touch TO all he
does. and his quick movements were
interesting to follow. He did not spare
his training mates. and their faces soon
showed crimson from the visitation of
his gloves.
Without any delay the pictures OF
the great struggle in the ring were
spread before the spectators. There
was ripple of applause as Champion
Jim Jeffries stepped between the ropes.
The various actors in the spectacle
were presented rapidly and could be
readily recognized in the photographs.
The fighters and the referee were posed
for picture and the difference in the
size OF the men appealed at once to the
spectators. The herculean proportions
of Jeffries make the other heavy
weights suffer by comparison 1t IS
evident a match between the big fell
low and either of the others would
be an unequal contest
The pictures will be shown at mat
inee this afternoon and the exhibitions
will be continued next week They
willie serve to start many controversies
as 10 the merit of Referee Jeffries' draw
decision at the conclusion OF the fight.

\. G. Spalding, an old-tir1e baseball
pitcher, who lives In Southern Cali
fornia, has hit on a happy idea When
he first took to automobiling he had
to carry a private secretary with him
to conduct the correspondence required
by his business. This made IL incon-
venient, for the secretary, with the
chauffeur, took up two seats, which at
times were needed to entertain friends.
Spalding then struck on the idea of
having his secretary also act as chauf-
feir He mentioned the matter to his
secretary. who fell in with the scheme.
After two months study In che ma
chine shop OF the maker of the car
used by Spalding the secretary became
an accomplished chauffeur.

LOUISVILLE, Ky, Dec. 1S.--Cnable
to secure matches. Marvin Harris man
ager today announced that he stood
ready to make a match to a finish with
Jack Johnson. the colored heavyweight
II will be remembered that Hart Sc
cured the decision over Johnson in q
twenty-round bout at San Francisco
nearly two years ago. Since that time
Hart has won the heavyweight cham
pionship by winning finish fight from
Jack Root at Reno, New, and lost the
title to Tommy Burns at Los Angeles
last spring.
Harris willingness to fight Johnson 10
finish will come as a big surprise to
fight followers, as it Is we'll known
that the Kentuckian has not much use
for Johnson's race
As Nevada is just now the only place
where fights to a finish are held, and
as Hart made a good impression there
when he fought Root. bids from clubs
out that way ought to be numerous.

BRISK BIDDING FOR

LOS ANGELES. Dec. 15.-At meet
ing today between Tommy Burns,
philadelphia jack O'Brien and prize
fight promoters from several cities,
Manager Tom McCarey of the Pacific
Athletic Club bid $4,000 for tight be-
tween Burns and O'Brien, TO be held
here some time next May. This was
$4,000 more than offered by the Rhyc-
lite Athletic Club of Rhyolite, New.
Burns was willing to sign the agree
ment to fight for this amount, but
O'Brien dissented and the matter was
deferred one week.
The Rbyolite representative has
given it out that he will probably equal
this offer and sporting men are antici-
pating that IL will be raised Rumors
of a similarly large offer for the fight
from Tonopah people are reported. but
nothing tangible has been offered by
them.
