hawk Indian, but whose kinky hair gives

but at the end. had careful record been
kept Of the points scored, there could be
no other verdict He carried the fight for
the greater part of the battle, and, work.
ing a snappy one-two punch TO the face
and jaw. kept his rival on his toes every
instant.
In the early rounds Peters did good
work and made free and effective use of
his left hand. He drew the blood from
the Indians nose, Tut did no material
harm. The first five rounds were practi-
cally even. but in the sixth Coffey caught
his man coming in with a savage one-two
punch. The blows landed as one. flush on
the tip of the chin. Peters sagged at the
knees, but he was in perfect condition
and rallied from the effects OF the blows

Coffey saw that he had his rival in a
bad way and boxed harder than ever. out
the bell found both on their feet and
tically settled the bout. True enough that
Peters made a game stand and whirl-
wind finish, but Coffey was just little
too good for him.

by Mr.. Healy and others that there was
any significance in the fact that the wait

DATES FOR BIG REGATTA
College Oarsmen to Race Earlier
than Usual This Year.

Dates have been set through 1915 for
the regattas OF the Intercollegiate Row
ing Association that are held at Pough-
keepsie annually, according to an an
nouncement that was made yesterday
The races are to be held on June q OF
this year nearly a week earlier than
usual, and only day after the Yale
Harvard race on the Thames.
The reason for this early date is that
tidal conditions in the Hudson are so
unsatisfactory in the last week OF the
month that the stewards were Obliged TO
hold the regatta either at the end OF the
first week Of July or In the third week
in June.
The latter date was considered the more
preferable, although II would limit the
crews to a much shorter training period
than usual at Poughkeepse. Only three
times have the varsity races been rowed
in July.
Next year the regatta is to be held on
June 26, and I'm 1915 1t will be rowed on
June 2S The board OF stewards or the
intercollegiate Rowing Association is 10
meet I'm New York shortly TO determine
whether II would be advisable to subsd-
tute a race for junior eight-oared crews
for the varsity fouroared race that has
been held as part Of the regatta since 1888.
There are smany who believe that the
four-oared race is one Of the most pictu-
rescue of the day. but by holding race
for the Junior eight 1t is argued that
more men would have an opportunity to
row in the regatta. and there would nee
candidates to train.
Pennsylvania and Cornell were the only
competitors in the four-oared race OF
1899, and Pennsylvania won by a length.
OF the fourteen four-oared races that
have been rowed Cornell has won nine,
Syracuse three and Pennsylvania two.
