been coming east and winning events
with such regularity that they are now
regarded as fixtures.
The disturbing element this spring is
the entry of the Illinois one-mile relay
team The Illinois quartet is said to be
the finest that this university ever got
together The eastern teams are not eX-
pected to be as formidable in this event
this year usual, unless Harvard SENDS
her one-mile team. Chicago Is known TO
be very fast also. and it may be that the
relays will result in a stiff fight between
the two western universities.
The other two big races Will be at two
and four miles. Yale, whose two-mlle
quartet has beaten nearly all the big
teams of this section, will concentrate its
strength in the two-mile race and Will
likely be the favorite. Pennsylvania has
! some very good middle-distance runners.
with the credit of a two-m1le victory over
Yale, and if the QuakerS concentrate
their strength in this event instead of
the four miles they will be very for
midable.
Word comes from Michigan that the
Wolverines will once more defend their
title in the four-mie events. Michigan
has won this event six years in success
sion, but will be hard pressed to do 1T this
time. The Wolverines have lost all or
their star distance runners except Dun,
the two miller. This will make it neces-
sary for them to find almost an entirely
new team. 1t has been said that good
milers grow at Ann Arbor just as cross
country men do at Cornell.
OF the other eastern teams which Will
compete il is thought that Virginia will
enter her crack One-mile team. Dart
mouth and Columbia two-mile teams, and
Cornell a four-mile quartet, with possi-
bly, a team from Princeton in the two
mile event.
The special events will be the same as
heretofore: The 1O0-yard dash. 120-yard
hurdle, high jump. broad 9ump, hammer
throw, shot put, pole vault and discus
throw. From the brisk manner that en-
tries are coming in il is thought that
there will be fully leo athletes on
hand, the largest number that ever COM
peted in a single meet in this country.

MCINTOSH EXPLAINS
OFFER OF $4,000

NEW YORK, March 15.-Hugh u. Nc
Intosh of Australia. who promoted the
Johnson-Burns battle for the heavy
weight championship of the world last
night replied to the manner in which Jim
Jeffries. the retired champion, took his
offer of $4,000 purse for fight In Sid
ney between the big fellow and Jack John
son.
Speaking of the matter, he said:
Il have read Mr. James J. Jeffries' re-
ply TO my published offer OF $4,000, and
am afraid Mr.. Jeffries has taken my re-
marks about his physical condition in the
wrong spirit | should be very 10th, IN
deed, to have travelled over 1909 miles
and used monetary persuasion to force
the greatest fighter that has ever lived
into the ring if his physical condition was
not such as to justify him in the attempt.
My anxiety is not an overweening one
to make money out of this contests but "a
worthy ambition to recover the cham
pionship of the world for the white race,
as | was perhaps one of the humble in
struments in the white race losing it
"Of course, if Mr.. Jeffries can get 500,
GO, then l must retire from the bidding,
as I know of no land, arena or condi-
tions that would legitimately warrant
such an offer.
The giving of purse that would come
TO nearly twice as much as the entire
gross raKlnSS or the world record re-
ceipts, namely S131 200 (Sydney), and the
next best of S66.3OO competed in by JEFF
fries himself when he fought Sharkey in
the halcyon days of boxing in America,
would be farcical.
If Mr.. Jeffries Is sincere in his belief
that he is worth even a fourth of this
amount | am prepared to run the contest
and bear all expenses in connection there
with and. give the contestants so per cent
of the game.
This is surely the test of Mr.. Jeffres
drawing power and popularity. II we can
get together. Immediately upon signing
the articles, | am prepared tn deposit the
whole amount offered, and shall be glad
to meet Big jim and talk ii all over in a

HAYES AND DORAND0
WILL MEET TONIGHT
Very Great Interest in What
Promises to Be the Best
of MarathonS.

NEW YORK, March 15.-Little Johnny

thon and the conqueror of Dorando. the
Italian. in that historic race. will try and
square accounts at Madison Square Gar
den tonight with the son of sunny Italy
for his later defeat in the race Thanks
giving eve last.
Backed as he is by the support of such
good judges of athletics Martin Sheri-
dan, Ernie Hjertberg. p. J. Conway and
Mel Sheppard. Hayes is believed to have
better than an even chance to defeat the
Italian over the same route on which he
was beaten in November The four ath-
letic experts pick Johnny as the winner
of tcnight's contest. They say he is bet
ter than ever before and that he will
repeat his performance of the Olympic
Marathon and show himself Dorando' S
master
Evening star., 1909-03-15
Odds Are Even Money.

AS a result of the opinions of the eX-
perts that Hayes is filter ard faster than
he was the odds on the race are even
money and take your pick. Had the con-
test been up for decision six weeks ago
Dorando in all probability would have
been the favorite. but the confidence eX-
pressed in Hayes ability TO take the
measure of his great rival by men who
know has placed the pair on an even
basis, so far betting is concerned.
Hayes has been training under the
watchful eye of Ernie Hjertberg, the
capab BILE trainer of the Irish American A.
c.. in which club col6rs he won the Olym-
pic Marathon, for some weeks. and the
speed he has shown in his trials has
warranted his trainer and other follow
ers of athletics who have seen him run
making the statement that he will lower
the colors of the Italian in the third
race in which the pair will meet.
