| In track athletics, there are several
genuine champions, R. c. Craig, Mich
igan, who equaled Berney Wefers' an
| cient 22D-yard mark, is the first and last
word in the year in sprinters. John
| Paul Jones, of Cornell, who demolished
| Tommy COnnef's mile record, is the
geatest in his speciality. George Bonhag
of New York, is the best at the abbrevia-
ted lC0g distances, as he has been for
several years, and Lewis Tewanima, the
Indian, is the peer of them all over the
more extended courses. Matt McGrath,
who smashed the hammer-throw record,
also is a shining light.
The champion football player of the
year could be designated as Sammy
White, of Princeton, who beat both Har-
ward and Tale by his individual brilliant
plays.
The four husky American gentlemen
who won the polo cup from England
should not be forgotten. They are Monte

Harry Payne Whitney.
During the year there was no Jeffries-
Johnson fight. and there were no Olym-

to be an off" year. Decidedly the con-

New York, Dec. l-Heavy-weight
Champion Jack Johnson was to-day chal-
lenged to a finish fight by Joe Jeanette
to take place in Paris for a side bet Of
$4,000
I specified Paris because France is the
only country in which finish fights are
allowed now" said McKettrick, manager
for Jeanette. Il wrote a letter to Jack
johnson making an offer of $4,000 to box
Jeanette. and. while johnson has replied
through the press saying that the amount
was not big enough. he has not written
TO me personally. Johnson is staIIing. He
is making exorbitant demands, knowing
that they cannot be made. Offer him a
purse Of $4,000 and he will demand $50, 900.
Ofrer him a side bet of 5000 and he will
demand $1,000
McKettrick said further that if john
son refused to meet Jeanette in a finish
fight in Paris, he was willing to guar
antee him $4,000 for ten-round bout
with Jeanette in New York City.
