SHIFT IN CREW.
Georgetown Varsity Rowers Changed

That drastic endeavors are to be made
to get together crew at Georgetown

BLUE AND GRAY MEETING.
General Athletic Association to Elect
New Officers Next SUNDAY.

At the annual meeting of the general
athletic association of Georgetown Uni
versity. which will be held at the college
Sunday it is anticipated that the question
of basket ball being reinstated under the
general committee. the same as II was
previous to last winter. will be thrashed
out and definitely settled. This is prob
ably the most important item OF business
which will come before the assembly. and
on this point there is sure to be great
discussion.
1t is well known that the management
OF the indoor game under Il separate as
ISOLATION was not a success. Financially
the season made ends meet. but very few
of the undergraduates saw the games
which were played. and there is q general
impression that If the team was carried
on as IL was two years ago more canol-
dates would report ard a stronger Quint
would be gotten together. For this rea-
son a move is Oh foot TO have the sport
retained, and to elect a manager from the
college, the same as is done on other
branches.
Besides the question Of basket ball being
discussed. assistant managers are TO De
elected for base ball, track and crew. In
these three departments the present as
sistant managers will be promoted to the
managership and new men Will be elected
from either the freshman or sophomore
classes. Nominations will be made with
In day or SO and from then on warm
campaign will be. waged until after the
elections.
A president of the yard and a secretary
and treasurer are also to be chosen TO
succeed the iHcumbents of those o.
fees. all of whom will graduate this
June. In this election only the 3anfor
class will have q nomination. and for this
reason there will be little electicneertng,
except that which takes place previous 10
the preliminary meeting of the class as
ISOLATION. This will take place tomorrow
morning.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 17.-With the
cree question. which was reached at yes
terday's conference by the selection OF
Promoter Tex Richard to preside over the
Jeffries1 johnson battle July Z. the. sport
ing fraternity barely had time to draw a
breath of relief before ominous rumors
Of trouble at Emeryville plunged them
into uncertainty and apprehension regard
ing the scene OF the championship con-
test
A widely circulated report from Oakland
that the fight promoters have been warn
ed that the authorities may not permit
the contest to be held at Emeryville
proved to be founded an something more
tangible than idle gossip, for District At
torney William DoIohue admitted that he
was preparing an opinion the law
covering the right to hold the fight and
Sheriff Frank Barne. stated that he was
awaiting the verdict of Donohue.
The most disquieting to the promot-
ers OF the many rumors is that
Thomas II. Williams. president of the
California Jockey Club, who controls
the Emeryville race track, where it has
been planned to build mammoth
arena for the ring battle, has with
drawn his support from the pugilistic
Richard that he must find some other
place in which to bring the fighters to-
gether. When asked to confirm or
deny the rumor, Williams refused. to
do either. saying that he did not care
to discuss the matter at all.

tween Nd Wolgast and Battling Nelson
when the lightweights were barred

The possibility Of an enforced change
Of location for the holding of the con-
test has turned speculation to San
Francisco itself, and many profess be-
lief the promoters have turned their
attention to this city. 1t is pointed out
that two excellent locations for staging
the big bout are to be had within the
limits OF San Francisco, where no hos
tility from the city Officials would. be
encountered
Attention likewise is redirected as a
result of the disturbed situation to the
announcement recently made by Richard
that he was planning to secure a permit
for the fight from the Nevada authori-
ties
The choice of Richard for referee, fol-
lowing turbulent incidents enacted at yes

as merely a tentative selection, or in the
parlance of the ring "a STALL to give
