YALE MEN BETTER ; DEVELOPED TODAY
 THAN FORMER YEARS

New Haven, May 6.-Statistics of Yale students just compiled by pr. Frank Born, medical examiner of the university. show that the young men of today are physically far better de- veloped than those of former years.
 His table comparing the Yale sen iors of 1910 with a91 Yale and liar yard seniors measured by Dr. B. A. Gould in 1864 shows in every case a gain in physique for the present fale seniors.
 "Fcr an explanation of the differ ence,'' says Dr. Born. we have re- course to two great facts, namely, the incree sed facilities for exercising and physical development and the fn- creasing mum mber of students who are xyafling themselves of these privi- leRes A study of these figures not only demonstrates that there has been an increase in the growth power of the students, but also corrOborates the assertion that the youth of the present day are better developed phy- sicslly than those of past genera tions.''
 Dr. Born's table shows the better physical condition of the college stu dent 1of today than that of the civil war volunteers not college men.
 Dr. Born finds that SS per cent. of the present senior class are taking part in some exercise. divided as fol- lows: Football, 10 per cent: baseball, 6 per cent; crew, l f per cent; track athletics, s per cent; outdoor games, IS tennis, 26 per cent; gymnasium, 24 per cent.

BIG FIGHT REFEREE MAY BE DECIDED
 BY TOSSING COIN
(Ry Max Balthasar.)

San Francisco. May 6.--The referee for the coming Jeff-Johnson fight will probably be selected by the toss of a. coin. There is a real deadlock on between Sam Berger. Jeffries' manager, and Jack Johnson as to who shall be the third man in the ring on July f. Berger favors Eddie Smith of Oak land, while Johnson has set his heart or. the selection of Jack Welch of San Francisco. If. at their next meeting, the fighters and their mana gers fail to get together. Managers Rickard and Gleason will take the matter into their own hands and name the referee. It is expected, however that even Glea- son and Rickard cannot agree anon g themselves as to who should be nam ed, and they may propose to toss heads or tails to see whether 1t shall be Welch or Smith. Both the fighters object to this lnaphazard way of do- ing business and may insist that the promoters select a man. In that event Charlie White of New York may be pamed Both Jeff and Johnson are opposed to having an Fastener in the ring. but Whites past exDerience makes him the most likely candidate if Rickard and Gleason have finally to pick the referee. It is certain. how ever. that White will not be considered until the promoters are sure that the two fighters themselves cannot agree upon a. Californian.

BOXING

San Francisco. May 6.-Death from accidental causes was the verdict re- turned yesterday by the coroner's jury in the case of Tommy Mccarthy. the prize fighter, who was killed last Fri day night in bout with Owen Moran, the Englishman.
 The chief witness was Moran, who declared that in the sixteenth round. which terminated the fight. he went after his opponent hard with the idea of knocking him out. He asserted that the fight was not fixed. to go fif- teen rounds, but thal he did not ex- tend himself until the final round, which resulted in McCarthy's death.
 New York, May 6--Mat Wells. Jimmy Johnson's latest importation from England, showed up well in his first appearance on this side of the big pond. when he cleanly outpointed Smil- ing Kelly in an eight-round bout last night before the newly organized Com bine A. C. of Yonkers. Kelly didn't smile much after Wells had got home few of his tantalizing jabs.
 Kelly ran into rough weather in the last two rounds, and if Jack Skelly, the old-time featnerweight. who ref creed the bout. could have. given a de- cision, he surely would have placed the laurels on, the Briton's brow. Kid Ghetto and Joe Ferguson stepped six slashing rounds with honOrs even. and Jim Ahearne and Johnny Baker fought a fast Six-round draw.
 New York, May 6-Mike Twin Sul- livan crawled out of his bout with Jimmy Clabby of Milwaukee at the Empire A. c. last night. Dixie Kid'' the negro welterweight. took Sullivan's s place and also took the beating that would have been Sullivan's had the latter seen fit to keep his word.
 The members did not exactly blame Sullivan for sidesteDping when they saw the Milwaukee lad in action. Jimmy was an icicle in the ring. but at times he changed to a stick of dy- namite. It was on these latter occa- sions that he battered his adversary terribly about the head and body It was Clabby all the way.
