Clunn pitched well but timely wallops and most egregious errors gave the Fin negan's runs. to which they were not honestly entitled.

YALE PROSPECTS
 GAIN BUT ODDS STILL ON HARVARD
Especial from United Press. l,

New London, Conn, June 2S.-From the number of big yachts that have already dropped anchor in the Thames it is evident today that Thursdays races between Yale and Harvard will be witnessed by one of the largest and most distinguished gatherings that ever assembled for the aquatic battles between the blue and the crim- son.
 The crews are in the best possible physical shape with the exception of the Harvard cubs who are still suffer- ing from their seasfckness of last Sun day. There is no fear, however that they will not be in condition by Thurs day.
 Glowing reports continue to emanata from the Yale quarters at Gales Fer ry. These have not had tha effect of changing the odds of 3 to 3 m Harvard but they have made a. lot of Harvard partisans cease talking about the easy time the Cambridge oarsmen will have. Right now the Harvard crew would take a foot lead over Yale at the finish and consider that they had done themselves proud Harvard has a great advantage in the experi- ence Of her men and also a four pound advantage for each man in weight but despite these points of su- periority the Yale oarsmen have such form in the last few days that they themselves and their supporters are in happy frame of mind. Only padding trips were scheduled for the men of both camps today.
 There will be no more hard rowina until the actual races. The men will do short spurts and practice starting.

BIGGEST SPORTING RESORT IN WESTERN HEMISPHERE
 WILL BE BUILT IN HAVANA
City Council p1s Already Granted Company, Made up of Cuban and American Capitalists, Ten Years Franchise,
 Permitting Every Known Form of Gambling

A huge casino is to be constructed in Buena Vista and a race track is being surveyed just outside the town. A big amphitheatre wherein may be held prize fights and bull fights and athletic games is also being consider ed as well as baseball park to which big league teams in the United States will be invited for training seasons.
 The franchise gives the company the right to use during this carnival season" all the vacant lots belonging to the city on which it is proposed to erect temporary gambling booths and places for other amusements. The purpose of this is to give the company an iron clad monopoly in all the gambling privileges in the city.
 The city authorities have promised the utmost security from interfer- ence and in return the company will probably be called on to make a hb- eral division with the city, though in what form has not yet been decided.
 Laurence Castello, member of the administration party, is attorney for the company. The company is ready with a bond of $20O,OOO to guaran- tee its part of the contract. Presi- dent Gomez himself is quoted as fav- bring the enterprise and other gov ernment officials are openly support ing it.

Special from United Press.)

Havana, June 28.-Plans are all Out completed today for beginning work on what the promoters intend to be the biggest sporting resort in the western hemisphere. The resort is to be built on the high banks of the Almendares river, in what is known as Buena Vista, just inside the corporate limits. It will be backed by Cuban and American cap- italists who have incorporated a $400,000 company.
 The Havana city council has al- ready granted the company ten years franchise that permits of prac- tically every known form of gamb- ling and other of the generally pro- scribed parts. All that remains to make this franchise operative is the signature of the mayor and Aldredo Misa. the head of the enterprise, says no trouble will be found in getting the mayors signature.
 The promoters plan to make Hay ana the biggest, gambling mecca in the world outside of Monte Carlo and possibly Nice and Venice, for at least four months of the year, the winter months, when tourist travel from the United States is at it's height.

Johnson's Training Quarters. Rick s Resort, Reno, New, June 28.-The re- ports that are being noised around from Jeffries' camp that Johnson is showing lack of speed in his, work don't find favor with the trainers of this camp and all combine in strenu- ously denying them. They say that the negro goes through his training work a good deal like Larry Lajoie plays baseball-so easily that few realize how much he gets done. His work does not appear to be impressive as the self to death going through it but his trainers assert he is getting the results and that's what counts.
 Johnson was up very early today and put in another day of strenuous road work, gym work and boxing. The crowd which saw Jack box ten fast rounds with his sparrfng partners yes terday was the largest crowd that has visited this camp.
 The sun was hot tempered by the first cool breeze since the camp was established. Johnson's glove work was true and sure and his foot work good. He was entirely on the defensive ex- too gay when he would shoot over right cross to the chin, or straight left with lightning speed.
 Reno is simply boiling over with thrills eQualled only by the days of the gold rush. The chunks of money wagered on the scrap only increases the excitement. In this camp there is about q 900 exclusive of what Jack may bet. to be put up at better than one to two. Frank Sutton of Pfttsburg said today he has $3.000 to wager on Johnson but wants odds of 10 to 4.
 After yesterdays strenuous work out, Johnson's weight was announced at POS pounds. and the belief is general now that he will fight close to 200, giving Jeff big advantage.
 Despite the many knocks he is re- ceiving from persons who don't think his work is impressive. there is no question that Johnson is absolutely confident This has been shown by the fact he has already made preparations to return in triumph east after the fight in private car. Jack receives long letters daily from his mother in Washington assuring him of victory.
 With the fight week away Jacks trainers are showing the strain, but Johnson himself, to all appearance, is the least concerned man in the camp. It was nearly midnight when he re- tired last night after a session at Rick's resort when he accompanied a pianist on his big viol. He was genial, apparently happy and contented and absolutely sure of what he would do to tsMistah" Jeff on next Monday. If there is breach between Johnson and Sig Hart, as reported yesterday it has been healed as there wasn't sign of it today.
