WHEELER TELLS OF
BOXING ROOSEVELT
University President Says lie
Enjoys Sport and Will
Keep Hands Off
Chemistry Dean Declares Minis
ters Are MisinfGrmed as to
the Exhibition

BERKELEY. March 9.-Presideni
Wheeler has stamped his approval
upon the boxing exhibition which the
Polydeucean club Will give Wednesday
night. Thc head OF the university
told President Z. V. Bray of the box
the sport and that during the last visit
ne made to the White House he had
put on the gloves with President
Roosevelt for few rounds AS long
as President Wheeler remains passive
and does not object to the boxing ex-
hibitions the Polydeucean, club will
pull off bouts even though the prize
lighters are objected to by the Berke-
ley clergy.
Secretary Tom Thomas OF the club
declared today that the ministers took
wrong view of the exhibition
matches because they misunderstood
the intentions of the club. Thompson
declared thai he intended TO invite
Rev. Mr. Hutsinpillar, Rev. Mr.. Henry
and Rev. Mr.. McCash, who denounced
the boxing exhibitions from their pull
pits yesterday. Thompson said today:
1t does not seem to me that any
justification is necessary for the cul-
tivation of boxing among college stu
dents who go. out into the world. a
knowledge of boxing brings self-confi-
dence and this Is part of the educA
tion of any man.
I'VE invited the professional boxers
to the exhibition to show the students
what boxing carried to the very limit
OF the art means. There are no
bruisers on the program, the men we
selected for the bouts are scientific
boxers, for il was by science that they
arose to the height of their profess
sion"
Professor Edmund O'Neill, dean of
the college of chemistry, has taken up
the cudgels in behalf of the students
against the ministers. He said today:
Boxing clubs have been in existence
among students of the university since
1875, and exhibitions have been given
at various times. The present club
was organized last semester and is
made up of some of the best students
in college, several of them being
prominent members of the college
Young Mems Christian association.
They have engaged competent in
structor and they box for the pleasure
and for the exercise. The coming ex-
hibition is merely one of pro-
fessiohals and members of the
club. and has not a single element of
prize fighting connected with it. The
club is under the auspices OF the as
sociated students and the exhibition
was authorized by them. The Rev.
DR.. Hutsinpillar and his colleagues are
apparently misinformed as to the ma
ture of this exhibition"
