PLANS MOTORBOAT
TRIP ACROSS OCEAN
Boatbuilder Expects to Make
1,7OO-Mile Voyage In
Two Weeks.

NEW YORK, Feb. 4.-Captain John
Weller, a Paterson boat builder, plans
to cross the Atlantic ocean in a motor
boat during the coming spring. The
boat will be fifty feet over all. with
twelve-foot beam, and the captain
thinks it will be strong enough to with
stand rough weather and high seas.
He has been at work on the boat for
about a year and now has a model OF
1t at the motor-boat show in Madison
Square Garden.
Captain Weller says he will start from
New York, going thence to Boston, to
Halifax, Nova Scotia, and on to St.
Johns Newfoundland. From St.
Johns he expects to cross the ocean
between the two steamship lanes from
Quebec and New York and land in Gal
way Bay, Ireland. On the other side
he plans to coast around Ireland, Eng
land and France and then return to
America.
The motor boat will be provided with
40-horsepower automatic gasolene en-
glne capable of driving her ten knots
an hour.
The captain will take provisions for
two months, but he expects to make the
trip of 1,760 miles in two weeks.
If Captain Weller succeeds, purse of
81, 800 will be presented to him by the
Little Falls Rod and Gun Club.

Britt-Kellar Fight
Tonight Looks Good

BALTIMORE, Feb. 24.-Young Britt,
of Baltimore, and Sammy Kellar, of
England, are to meet tonight at AL
baugh's Theater in a bout scheduled
to go fifteen rounds. 1t will be Britt 9
first appearance since his bout with
Monte Attell, from whom he won, after
the best battle of his career. Sammy
Harris says he has trained the Balti-
morean faithfully for this mill because
he believes that Kellar will give Britt S
a good battle
In Kellar Britt is meeting an unknown
quantity In Baltimore. Manager John
son, who is here with Kellar, says his
boy is regarded in England as the best
boxer of his class outside of Diggt r
Stanley, who holds the championship.
Johnson says Kellar soon will be seen
in the ring again with Stanley in q
battle for the championship honors.
Kellar fought Stanley a twenty-round
battle in 1908 and lost, but Johnson says
his charge is now ready to so after the
laurels again. kellar was to have boxed
Tommy O'Toole in Philadelphia We'd
nesday night, but O'TOole claimed ne
was too i'll to fight.
Several good preliminaries have been

Evening Dress Suits
To Elevate Boxing

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. PA. j.
Drexel Biddle proposes to make it man
datory for persons attending boxing
matches to wear full evening dress
Dinner coats are to be barred; It must
be clawhammer and nothing else. And
to show that he Is in earnest, Tony
declares when he has guests at a pub
lie boxing show he makes it mandatory
upon them to appear as If for the opera.
Says Mr.. Biddle:
Boxing has been looked down upon
in this country for years. 1t is now
coming into its own again. The average
fight fan of the olden days felt that
he had to make some excuse and al
ways falsified to his family at least
about his destination. Pugilism was
scorned, and mans wife was never
told that he was going to see a boxing
match.
In addition, everybody who went to
a fight thought that he was entitled to
be as tough as possible. The spirit of
pugnacity was in the air, and the aver
age fight devotee thought that he had to
battle with his neighbors. There was
too wide a gulf between the professional
and amateur boxer, a gulf which we are
now trying to bridge.
This can be done by having men ap-
pear at the clubs in evening dress. 1t
gives the game an air of gentility, and
the sight of rows of men attired in
this manner will act as a softening in
fiuence on their more truculent brothers.
Take the clubs in Paris. There women
see the hardest bouts. At the National
Sporting Club in London those down.
stairs are required to dress according
to fashion.
Every Saturday 1 have ten or fifteen
guests at boxing exhibition. 1 make 1t
mandatory upon them to wear evening
dress. If we had general rule to that
effect / feel the boxing game would
have this dress a custom in our city"

AMATEUR BASEBALL
MEETING IS CALLED
President Young Expects to
Hear From Leagues BY
Wednesday Night.

The President OF the Amateur Base
ball Commission, Robert H. Young, has
called a meeting of the members for
Wednesday night at Spalding's store on
Fourteenth street
By that time it is hoped by the presi-
dent that all the leagues will have met
and perfected theiI reorganization so
that the plans of the commission can be
permanently made and all arrangements
for the conduct of the season put into
operation eXpeditiously.
The election of the members of the
arbitration board will be an important
item of busir ess at the meeting Wednes-
day night. Just who will be named by
the commission 1t is not known, but
several names were put before the body
at the annual meeting, and It is likely
that one of these at least will be made
a member. The president of the COM
mission is also almost assured of place
on the tribunal by right of precedent.

President of Amateur Body
Notified of Action Taken
Last Night. p
TO ELECT OFFICERS
ON NEXT THURSDAY
Session Is Held At the Residence
of the Rev. Zed
Copp.

There is great likelihood the Olym-
pia League will be a member of the
Amateur Baseball Commission this
season as five teams in the former
organization, at a meeting held last
night, at the residence of President
Zed Copp, voted for such affiliation.
Secretary Sweigler was instructed
to notify President Young, of the COM
mission of the leagues resolution and
1T is confidently expected that the ap-
plication of the league will be View
ed with favor. The five teams present
last night were: White Havens, Sligo
A c., Trinity, South Ends, and Knick-
erbockers. Three other teams applied
for admittance into the organization.
One of these will be taken in at the
next meeting as 1t was resolved to
have but six teams in the circuit this
season.
At the suggestion of the pesident
the election of officers was postponed
until the meeting on March at the
same place.

MACKEY ACCEPTS
PROKOS' CHALLENGE
Will Wrestle Massachusetts
Man March ?, Prob
ably Here.

Rob Roy Mackey, the Washington
grappler, has accepted the challenge of
Jim Prokos, of Lowell, Mass, which
was transmitted by John Poul at the
bout at the Armory last night.
The bout has been arranged for March
,, to take place here, and the place of
the staging of the match will likely be
at the National Guard Armory. Prokos
is the Greek middleweight champion,
and has defeated some of the best men
here and in his native land.
Mackey, although lighter than his
coming opponent, is confident that he
will make a good showing. The match
will be best two out of three. Mackey's
success last night has caused him TO
take on Prokos on even terms, and he
believes that the disadvantage he has in
weight will be offset by his eXperiepne
and knowledge of the game.

Harvard Track Team
Invited to Annapolis

BOSTON, Feb. PA letter inviting
the Harvard track team to spend the
April recess in training at the Naval
Academy at Annapolis has been re-
ceived from that institution, and it is
probable that it will be accepted or that
the team will go to Philadelphia at that
time. 1t is likely also that the Crimson
freshman track team will hold a dual
meet with the Dartmouth freshmen at
Cambridge on the same day that the
mouth.

New Record Made at
HarVard'S Carnival

that the attendance was small and that

day were pleased with their first winter
carnival last night, as a new record

ton Athletic Association team against
Harvard, when 1t lowered Harvard's s
record for the track by 10 of second,
doing the distance in minutes s 1-5 sec

The Treasurer.
BY Herman Nickerson.

Who is the most popular man in the
bunch? The treasurer. He stands for
more touches than a candidate running
for office. While at home he lives in a
castle. When with the team he usually
rides in an upper and draws the poor
est room in the hotel. Why? Children,
the star players must have all the low
ers and the bridal chambers. Poor
treasurer. He has nothing but money,
which you know is dross. The players
get some of the dross, too, believe me,
and all the glory. Still, it is better to
be a treasurer than a manager. 1t is
safer
