ATHLETES OF TWO
NATIONS TO MEET.
Vale and Harvard Will Send Team
Against Cambridge and Oxford.

While the arrangements have been
carefully safeguarded, it has just de-
veloped that a picked team of Yale and
Harvard athletes-tracIS and field men
will visit England this summer in
quest of new honors in joint series
against Oxford and Cambridge.
The contests are carded for July,
shortly after the British track cham
pionships, and will fit in very nicely,
coming as they will probably six weeks
after4 the American intercollegiate
championships at Cambridge in the lat
ter part of May.
While no written agreement exists
to guarantee the meeting, there is an
understanding by which the best of the
sons of Old Eli and John Harvard will
compete against the Oxonians and the
CantabS in a. series similar to that or
several years ago.
Both Oxford and Cambridge have
track teams of exceptional excellence
this year, as evidenced by the cap
ital work done recently in the interco1-
legiate sports, and they made a favor
able reply when sounded short while
toward a Harvard-Yale challenge for
an international varsity event.
In 1899 at the Queens club grounds,
West Kensington, London, Oxford and
Cambridge won by five events to four.
At Berkeley OVAL New York, in 1901,
Yale and Harvard turned the tables,
winning by a score of six to three, and
duplicating the performance three
years later at the Queens club grounds
by a similar score.
Other intervarsity International
matches were decided in London in
the winner by five and one-half to
three and ene-half, while in the next
year at Manhattan field Yale defeated
Cambridge by eight events to three.

Lghtweaht Champion Battered Butchertovn Idol About
the Ring Sponge Thrown Up in the Fifth Round.

San Francisco, March 31.-Light-
weight Champion Ad Wolgast made
short shift tonight Of Anton Lagrave,
a rather obscure local fighter. Vol
CAST batted< his opponent about the
ring at the Auditorium pavilion, land
ing whenever and wherever he chose.
Lagrave's seconds threw up the
sponge after about two minutes fight
ing in the fifth round, as it was APP
parent that Lagrave would not last the
round out.
The fight was too one-sided to be
Wolgast took the aggres-
sive at the outset and the Butcher
town Idol' never had an opportunity
to rest or land a return blow.
In the second round the champion
almost brought the bout to quick
ending by sending Lagraves through
the ropes with a terrific right to the
jaw, and followed this up by flooring
his man for the count of nine.
In the fourth round Lagrave took the
count four times, and the spectators
importuned Referee Jack Welsh to
stop the fight. The last rond found
Wolgast beating an almost helpless
fighter, and his seconds interviewed.
The men fought at 1873. rinSeide.
There was some betting at even mon
ey that Lagrave would last fifteen

CALIFORNIA LIGHTWEIGHT
BOUND FOR THE TOP
frankie Burns Has Shown Strong in
His Three Battles.

The future looms as brightly for
Frankie Burns, the young California
fighter. as it does for any of the new
crop of lightweights Burns profess
sional contests number only three, but
each of them was a creditable per-
fornance. Strange to say, his first
was his most important engagement.
That was his second bout with Owen
Moran
It was one OF those bouts in which
the referee simply acts as deaf mute
but by striking an average of the
popular decisions rendered, it was
agreed that the affair deserved to be
known as a draw, and as such it has
been referred to ever since.
Burns peculiar crouch-or, rather,
his scrouch and cover''-as it has
come to be called, no doubt helped him
to weather the storm in the Moran
affair. Moran, as all the sporting
world knows, is the personifcation of
GOODNESS and confidence. What he
doesn't know about locating openings
is not worth knowing
Afraid of Hurting Hands.
Moran was baffled by the way the
California Cub barricaded himself.
Owen soon decided that to lash out
unfortunately would mean injury to
his hands by contact with Burns ell
bows or forearms. Moran also dis
covered that Burns was liable to Qn-
wind an arm from his head and let
