I,ondon. october 21.--(SpeciaL)-Jaihes I. Jeffries may yet regain his lost crown and restore the fight champlohshp 'o 'no white race No less a judge ol ligh'lne n.en than Tex Riekard, who staged the fight at Reno which gave Johnson the championship, is authority for that state nlent.
 Rickard has been in London financing a great land deal in Paraguag which ne expects to result in making another Texas .n the far south.
 While he has retired from the prize fighting business he takes keen interest In the game and declares if Jeffries ever gets in condition and wants another hght with Johnson he will back the ooiler- maker and finance the fight.

 The notification of the programme Tor the Olirpic games at Stockholm, next year. is a reminder that we are again
  for supremacy among the athletes of the world IL is extremely unlikely that the majority of Olympic events Will aSam De won by representatives Of :he British eh- pire the advantage of being al hoihe having a lot to do with the oNerWhelih- ing success in 19OS Moreover, European nations have made giant strides in sports and pastines, and competition Will De keen@r all round. About the only sa1e thing to predict is that representatives of the United States will win the ma jority of the purely track and field ath- ietic events, which will claim attention from July to July 10.
 The programme differs somewhat from the 1908 list of events and there will be no steeplechase nor any eatch-as-catch- can wrestling events, which British ana United States athletes would have liked included On the other hand, cross country race and a POO miles unpaced cycling race on the road will figure, and both will be attractive additions. Another rev departure is a swimming race Tor women, while the three all-round conpe- titions are decidedly novel,
 Probably the most freakish events on the nrogramme from an American stand point is the modern pentathlon, which will be contested in the stadium starting July 7 As the name implies the penta-

 1. Duel shooting, distance 20 metres; 20 thots in four series of five shots each; two sighters. Target. whole figure, 1.7 metres high, divided into zones. The tar get will be visible 3 seconds, with an in- terval of 10 seconds between each shot. Weapon, any revolver or pistol with open fore-and-bacl< sight.

 b. Cross country race, 1000 metres. Com petitors start singly, at intervals of one minute Start and finish in the stadium.
 Gwen Moran, the famous English light weight boxer, who recently returned to this country after his big fight with Wolgast in America, appeared in the dock at Birmingham the other day, charged with being drunk and disorderly. Moran was stylishly dressed in a blue suit of American cut. His solicitor asked the Stipendiary not to convict, Since his fight in America, he said, Moran had been visiting friends in England prepara- tory to meeting Driscoll in the ring He should have gone from Malvern the other day to sign articles with Driscoll, but on the way he stopped in Birmingham
