FORDHAM HAS INSIDE TRACK.
Has Bicycle Race sanction That
Diocesan Union seeks.

There Is a clash between Fordham
University and tho Diocesan Union over
the bicycle race which each has scheduled
Tor games on tho same night, January
80. Fordham University apparently has
the right of way and as matters stand
now the y. 6 y. is unable to sanction
the bike event listed by the Diocesan
Union.
) me time ago Fordham applied to the
y. e. y. for sanction for a two mile
bicycle race for January 80 and IL was
granted Immediately. At that time the
y. G. \. officials had no knowledge that
the Diocesan Union intended to hold
games on the same night and knew that
bicycle race was Included only when
the entry blanks were Issued few days
ago
According TO y. e 4. officials Il will
be impossible To issue a sanction for the
Diocesan event except by arrangemen,
with the Fordham management. The
cycling body always has de lined to
sanction two events on tho same night as
there are not enough cd riders in this
district TO divide them with prospects of
success for both events

gested last night that tho only way out
OF the difficulty was for the management

SEVERAL CHANGES IN
'HARVARD'S SCHEDULE
Owing to Graduation Of Many
Veterans Eleven Will Have
Less GridirOn Games.
PENN Is NOT CONSIDERED

CAMBRIDGE. Mass, Dec 13--Bccause OF
the loss OF so many veteran players next
fall the Harvard football schedule for
1915 will be considerably easier than that
which Capt. Brickleys team went through
No successfully and In spite OF so many
midseason setbacks. The Harvard foot
ball committee Is now at work on its list
Of games for next year, and for weeks the
air has been filled with all sorts of rumors
regarding the teams Harvard will and will
not play.
The official schedule is not ready. but
the Crmson's usual last three games will
be on the card again, these opponents
being Princeton, Brown and Yale. or the
six other teams played last fall P.nnsyl-
vania State College. which held Harvard
to 10 TO l3 tie. probably will be the only
one retained. There will he no games
with Michigan, Washington and jefferson.
Tufts Springfield and bates The Colby
team probably will be Iiaryari's first OPP
ponent next fan and for the next two
dates Amherst, Williams, Wesleyan and
Trinity are being considered.
Virginia will come to Cambridge early
IN the season, while the opponents for the
two games preceding Harvard's match
with Princeton In November will be drawn
from Penn state. Cornell West Point and
the Carlisle Indians. The Army team Ia
anxious to play Harvard after four
years lapse. but IL is thought that the
Cadets will not be allowed to mako the

cannot go to West Point

SHEPPARD CHANGES REGIMENT.
Gets Transfer From Fourteenth to
sevcnty-nrst.

Melvin W. Sheppard has again shifted
his allegiance as National Guard ath-
lete and hereafter will don the uniform OF
In lieu of the Fourteenth of Brooklyn,
for which organization he has competed
since he was readmittcd to the National
Guard. Sheppard's application for "A
transfer has been signed by the command
ing officers Of both regiments, which Is
all that Is necessary to insure the trans
fer going through without a hitch.
There is one regret on the part OF the
Seventy-frst Regiment officials: Sheppard
will not be eligible to represent his new
regiment In the military relay to be held
at the annual indoor games In the
Seventy-first armory on New Years eve.
After transfer from one regiment TO
another the Military Athletic League
rules require that an athlete must serve
a probation of thirty days before he can
compete in the colors OF the new regi-
ment Sheppard, however, will be eligi-
bic to run for the Seventy-frst In the
relay at the Fordham University games
The distance of this event has been
changed from 2.i00 yards to 1900 yards
so that each man will run 800 yards, the
favorite distance at present or the former
half mile champion.
According TO rumors in athletic circles
tne sWltch or Mel sheppard liz only the
prelude to the crossing of the bridge
from Brooklyn to Manhattan of a number
of noted regimental athletes.
The fact that Lawson Robertson Is now
training the Twenty-second Regiment
men has caused the Brooklynltes to look
toward that regiment az home for win
ter training. Those VINO can apply for
transfer on the reasonable ground of con
venlence to their homes are expected to dc
so before tho season Is much older One
OF the most prominent mentioned in this
regard is Abel Kiviat. who has many rea-
sons for wishing to join the Twenty

for the open event. the Fox Hills Golf
Club finds itself I'm rather puzzline

for the club to handle both events, but
II would be glad to have one OF them, es-
peCially the national tourney. which IL is
most anxious to get.

is perplexing because the first meeting Of
the new executive committee OF the Metro
politan Golf Association probably will be
held between Christmas and New Years.
and the annual meeting of the United
states Golf Association will not he held

became president OF the local association
Il year ago he inaugurated policy Of
holding as few executive committee meet
ings a. possible and succeeded in cutting
the number down to three during the
year which has just ended. Following out
this policy the courses for the Metropoli-
tan amateur and open championships were
chosen At the first meeting last year
