sary for any of the officials to warn
any of the contestants regarding fouls
or unfair tactics. After each race the
losers cheered the winners just as
heartily as they were cheered back
and the best of good feeling and
craftsmanship existed on all sides.
The occupants of the judges and

lunch at the University Club, the ex-

had been sharpened by the several
hours spent on the water.

There were three boats entered, Pilot

The winning crew had a stroke of
hard luck at the very beginning OF
the pull, an oar breaking before a
dozen strokes had been taken. Such
a contingency had been provided for,
however and a spare oar was shipped
with only the loss Of about length.

fallen well into stroke and began to

THE COLOR LINE AGAIN.
Jeffries says he will Follow SulIivan's
Example and Refuse to Fight
Jack Johnson.

James J. Jeffries is quoted as saying
that if Bill Squires, the Australian
heavyweight, who is on his way here
can prove that he is not a lemon he
will take him on in a championship
mill. But Jeffries once again positively
declines to have anything to do with
Jack Johnson, who has just knocked
out Peter Felix in jig time at Sydney,
n. S. w. Jeffries says that as long as
he is champion he will draw the color
line, following the example set by John
L. Sullivan. But this argument will
not carry much weight with the sport
ing fraternity when Johnson returns
here and makes another attempt TO get
match with the boilermaker. Mean
while it is said that Philadelphia Jack
O'Brien has deliberately refused a
match with Squires. saying that Jeffries
is the man to tackle the Australian.
O'Brien possibly has an underground
tip as to Squires real ability and does
not care to take chances with his prec-
ious reputation. In view of all this,
therefore, it looks very much as if
Squires would be asked to meet Tommy
Burns as soon as he lands on the Paci-
fc slope. as the Frisco and Los Angeles
fight promoters think that the match

PENSION FOR
BALL PLAYERS
Magnates May Start Fund
for Superannuated Dia-
mond Heroes.
ONLY FOR The WORTHY
Pres. Johnson VIII Promote Project
at Coming New York Meeting
-Comiskey Leaves Today.

American League magnates Will be
asked at the coming meeting in New
York to provide or start pension
fund for ball players who have out
lived their usefulness. President John
son said before he left for New York
last night that the subject Ct a pension
fund had strongly appealed to him, and
that he would do his best to make the
club owners see it in the same light.
He believes that the magnates viii look
upon the scheme favorably, and he
thought the time ripe for such move.
1t is not proposed to make 1t
charitable institution entirely, althcu ugh
the families of deserving ball players
will be included in the general plan.
The conduct of the players during his
time of service in the national game
is to be taken into consideration, and
1t is not intended that the fund shall
be of any benefit to the man who dis
sipates or otherwise proves himself
unworthy.
Il think the public would gladly con-
tribute to such worthy object, and it
might be a wise thing to have each
club set aside a certain per cent. of
it's earnings each year. Besides, there
ting which would we'll be diverted to
a pension fund. Take for instance,
the fning Of ball players. All such
moneys could be contributed to the
fund.
The pension idea is gaining in ia
vor all over the land in various walks
Ct activities There is an actors fund,
which has been used for a good pur-
pose The Jockey club had a fund
which it uses to help needy Jockeys
and turfmen The idea has been grow
ing with me, and I sincerely hope that
the plan Will be put into effect"
President Johnson left for New York
last evening instead of afternoon, as
he originally intended. President Gem
iskey of the sox and Joe Cantillon Of
the Washingtons will leave today. The
sessions of the leagues will begin Mon
day and probably last three days.
President Murphy Of the cubs was
scheduled to leave Cincinnati for the
east last night.

The Little Joker" Mr.. Dunn, who is

play of his many talents than ever be-
fore and 1t is safe to assert that in his
coming appearance he will be seen at
his best. The supporting company viii

who have been especially engaged for
their adaptabiiity to portray the parts
for which they have been assigned.
There Will be a number Of catchy, tune

NO WITHDRAWAL FOR MICHIGAN

Ann Arbor. Mich. Feb. 22.-An the

Withdrawing from the Big Nine" fiz-
zIed out today when the board Of re-
gents voted to leave that matter in
the hands Of the board of control, as
the faculty had requested. Probably
very little more viii be heard about
Michigan wanting to get out Of the
Big Nine"
The entire hubbub about Michigan
getting away from western college
athletics arose over nothing. When the
conference professors passed their re-
forms a yell of protest went up here
from few students who imagined that
the other colleges were trying to hurt
Michigan.
As the rules had the same effect on
the other eight members of the confer
ence that they did on Michigan, the
faculty was cool headed enough to see
that no intended injustice was being
done Michigan, and it discouraged in
whatever way it could the idea of get
ting out of the Big Nine
