PREPs LOSE LEADER.
Capt. Ryan Forbidden to Row by
Parents.

CONSERVATION reigns today among the
Blue and Gray prep oarsmen because Of
the announcement made last evening by
their captain and stroke. Joseph A. Ryan.
that he would not be able to remain in
the boat any longer on account of pa
rental objection. That such news was
very surprising may be readily gathered
from the fact that the retiring leader has
ever since January worked hard in the
interest of the crew. Up to the holidays
he had been out practicing every day.
and his work at pace-setting was fast be-
coming perfect. 1t was during the vaca-
tion. which he spent at home, that his
parents forbade him rowing any more.
and he made known his case as soon as
he returned to school.
1t is not only to be regretted that In
loss is sustained by the prep eight but
also It Is a big disappointment to HIM
self. Ever since entering the hilltop
school Ryan has taken a keen interest in
aquatics. making first sub on the 1907
crew. only to lose his honorary position
on account of his health.
Last year he managed the eight that
American Henley. and in this capacity
he showed that he possessed a world of
business sagacity. But besides being
manager he also cinched the stroke posi-
ticn in the boat. holding II until week
previous to the regatta. when a funk in
ton. His companions felt the loss SO
much that Immediately after the race
they chOse Ryan as captain for this year
Although compelled to give up actual
rowing. Ryan will probably continue di-
recting the affairs Of the crew. Whether

Never before have the runners in q
Boston Marathon started under such tor.
rid weather conditions. Seven score Of
runners stripped to gymnasium costume
competed. It was elbowing work for
the first hundred yards after the pistol
had sent the men away. but a mile from
the start Jensen led Crowley Of New
York by ten yards, with Welton Of Law
renee third. and the Indian, Tewanina,
fourth.
A long hill here proved i1eartSreaker
for many a runner. and many others
survived 1t only to succumb to q longer
incline three miles beyond. Renaud
seemed to stand the trying work better
than the others. and when tho top Of
Reservoir hill was reached he was I'm
third place. The race OF Renaud with
Grant and Jensen through the long
cheering lane from this point to the
finish was one of the features Of the big
contest. Rsnaud caught Jensen. and the
pair overhauled Grant at Coolidge cor
ner, a little more than two miles from
the finish. For a few hundred yards the
trio ran side by side. Then Rsnaud

a new captain will be elected has not yet
been decided. but one probably will. as
the sport demands the presence OF q
leader in the boat at all times.
Coach Russell was very much dis
turbed by the news. and rightly so. since
Ryan's retirement leaves the crew with.
out stroke. No time was lost, how.
ever: in the reorganization of the boat
yesterday from port to starboard. in or
der to give him q tryout at setting the
pace. That the loss Of Ryan will greatly
weaken the preps chances for success In
the big Henley race cannot be denied. but
the men. though greatly disappointed. are
not disheartened, and from what wal
heard at the boathouse last evening II
was easy to see that all still retain their
hopes Of again bringing the schoolboy
championship back to the Blue and Gray
institution.

JEEFR|ES FINALLY
DECIDES TO FIGHT
To Make Announcement To.
night That He Is Ready to
Re-Enter Ring.

NEW YORK, April 2O.-James j. JEFF
fries will announce tonight that he still
claims the right to the title Of heavy.
weight champion. and will be ready to do.
fend It against all comers for ten months
or a year. Jeffries. in a statement. says
he il convinced that he will be able to
get into good fighting condition. For
some weeks the former champion has
been touring the country giving sparrins
exhibitions, and at the same time en-
deavoring to ascertain II his four years
retirement from the ring had impaired
his fighting ability. Jeffries, in a state
ment, says:
Immediately after my exhibition with
Sam Berger. my sparring partner, will
go before the footlights tonight and an
nounce to the audience that I have de-
cided to re-enter the ring and defend my
title OF heavyweight champion against
any man In the world. II Jack johnson
is fortunate enough to beat Stanley
before the club that offers the largest
purse.
II have come to the conclusion that
1 can get back to my previous good form
which Is responsible for my making this
announcement. l will be ready to fight
year, but I will fight just the same"
Jeffries has been out OF the ring FOL
four years and during that time has TAX
en- on flesh. Until Jack Johnson captured
the title of champion from Tommy Burns
the return of Jeffries to the squared cir
cle' had not been thought of either by
the retired champion or the pugilistfc fra.
ternity. The demand of the public that
Jeffries fight again following the Burns
johnson battle became SO insistent that
Jeffries. who had declared that he was
through with the boxing game, tolt
his friends that II he could get into his
former fighting condition he would meet
johnson.
Notwithstanding the appeal of friend.

ing clubs. Jenries for several weeks has
remained non-committal, 80 that some ol
his admirers despaired Of ever seeing the
big fellow put on the gloves once more
Jeffries now believes that he can fit him
self for a championship battle.
Jeffries wants the fight to take place
In this country, and has under considera.
tion an offer from a fight promoter fol
a championship contest some time during
the Seattle exposition.

NEW YORK, April 20.-H. A. Wright,
the San Francisco amateur. who tied
last year with Calvin Demarest for the
amateur billiard championship. only to
be defeated in the play-off, won the open
ing game last night at the Liederkranz

National Association Of Amateur Billiard
Players. He defeated Joseph Mayer Of
Philadelphia by 400 to 142 in the 1872
balk line game. running out In twenty
five innings with an average OF 10.
Wright led all the way. but although
he made two runs Of over 80 each. 1t was
not until toward the close OF the match
that he gave clear evidence of his real
ability, when in the tYenty-third inning
he made a run of 80. missing an easy
draw shot when he needed but four more
to finish the match. Wright's delicate
touch, his excellent masse shots and his
clever handling Of the balls In the rail
shots were the features Of his game. and
in these respects he was decidedly the
superior of his opponent. The scores:
