Princeton, N.

Eberstadt, '13 The ten-game sched- ule oe last season has been shortened to nine games, one of the two We'd nesday contests being omitted. The Harvard game at Cambridge in No vember is the only contest on foreign territory, an unusual feature of the Princeton schedule
 Stevens will help inaugurate the sea- son on September 28, and Rutgers on October will be the only Wednesday games next fall.
 On October 12 the stiffer end of the schedule will start with Virginia Poly technic Institute. This eleven has not been met since 1908, when Princeton had a close call, though winning through field goal by Cunningham. Syracuse, after an absence of three years, when the Tigers were played to a standstill and a tie score, will ap- pear on October 19. The Dartmouth game, tentatively scheduled for New York city, will be played in Princeton on October 26.

JOHNSON-FLYNN BOUT
 LOOKS PHOkEY TO MANY
Promoter Curley Wants to Bet $5,OOO
 on Pueblo Fireman.

There's a great hullaballoo over the proposed Jack, Johnson-Jim Flynn fight at Las Vegas, N. M., on July f Johnson has started to train, eight weeks before the battle, while Flynn says he has engaged Jim Corbett and Tommy Ryan to put him in shape. Jack Curiey, the promoter declares that citizens A Las Vegas have fur nished S1O,0O0 and will build the arena. All of which is plausible, but it jars one to hear that Curley has S5,0O0 to bet on Flynn if somebody will of fer 2 1-2 to 1 on the negro: also that Flynn will wager $7,00O on himself.
 If the fight, so-called, is on the square, with no secret arrangements with moving picture concerns, John son can put Flynn away in a few rounds. Flynn was a piece of putty in Jchnson's hands in California sev- eral years ago. The negro simply toyed with the Pueblo man until the eleventh round, when he knocked him cold Sam Langford. for that matter, put Flynn to sleep in a punch in 1908. Two years after Langford allowed the fireman to stay 10 rounds in order to get a return match in Los Angeles, whereupon Flynn was slaughtered in eight rounds.

$200,000 Loss
 To Ball Magnates
Rainy Weather Has Put National and American Leaguers
 in the Hole

A baseball club owner remarked yesterday that postponement this sea- son due to rain had cost the big league clubs $200.0O0. This may be overstating it little, then again 1t may not, but it is entirely probable that the widespread and persistent drippiness of the heavens has de- pleted excheQuers at least $15O,OOO. Up to yesterday there had been twen- ty-seven postpOnements in the Ma tional League and twenty one in the year are much below normal. There have been big crowds out, but big crowds have had few opportunities comparatively to come out.
 Figuring on an average attendance of 5000 the forty-eight unplayed receipts from 24O.000 persons. That number of persons, allowing for a 50 cent admission rate, would mean $12O,00O. But even with the 26 cent admissions there are so many 75 cent patrons that the average admission price probably would be over 50 cents. Then again the postpOnements include one Saturday and one Sunday game in the American League and three Saturday and two Sunday games in the National. Also there were three postponements of opening day games in each league. All of these days would have been good for big crowds. Not only did the Boston Americans suffer the postponement of their opening game with the Highlanders, but the two Patriots Day games were not played. These three games alone with good weather, would have drawn 10000 persons.
 With the bad spring weather comes "a revival of the agitation to begin the cha piOnship season later A nost- ponement until the first of May wouldn't have been any benefit this spring. The clubs would have had just as bad training weather. Again May so far has been quite as un- propitious as April.
