BIG ATHLETIC MEET
 AT LIGHTHOUSE POINT

The New Haven A A. will hold an athletic meet on their four lap track Saturday afternoon, July. Il. on the Lighthouse Point athletic field. New Haven. There has been some big talk about the New Haven. A. A. relay team. It is claimed that the Trinity relay team of Brooklyn. N Y, were afraid to compete with them at the Middletown c. T. U-$games ~on June 20.
 At this meet the relay team ran ov- CT the course without competitors, for no one in the state was willing to com pete with them, although ample no- tice had been given to Y. M c. A. and state athletic organizations. The fastest man on the New Haven A. A. relay team, B. w. Stebbips, will not run on July II. With this handicap, it is claimed that the team can win over any other one-mile relay team of four the entire state. either representing tions. or made up of one or more from different cities in the state. This lat- ter would make an all-state relay team against the New Haven A. A.
 Other events are. Throwing the jaw elin, running high jump. 100 yards. half mile run, two mile run, and anna teur one mile handicap bicycle race open to any amateur bicycle rider in the state Fine prizes will be given. the first in the bicycle race being a handsome diamond ring valued at $25. Entry blanks can be obtained by ad- dressing the New Haven A. A, Room SIS, No 69 Church street, or Box 745, New Haven, Conn.

BEER BEATS TOUCHARD FOR
 TENNIS TITLE

Karl H. Behr won the Middle States Tennis championship yesterday at the Orange L. T. C., Mountain Station, N. J. He defeated Gustave F. Touchard, the defending, title holder, by s-6, 6-2, 4-6s .6-2.
 Touchard streasked through the first few games with all of his old-tfme speed. but then he fell off in form. In the last set Behr scored four love games in a row without even the glimmer of a response from the op- posite side of the net
 Behr, because of his declaration that he is out to make the Davis Cup team, played for all he was worth ex- cept for a period in the third set. when he retired to his base line. From that point he fought out the rallies with Touchard, and got the worst of it. Touchard was as crafty as ever when it. came to shooting across the passes and the third set was illurni- mated by splendid bits of driving, at which the old champion proved his mastery.

FIGHTERS FORGET RULE
 ABOUT HITTING THEIR
 OPPONENTS WHEN, DOWN

There is one rule in the Queens bury code that few boxers ever live up to and that is in regard to where an opponent is knocked down. / The rule states very plainly that. in the event of one boxer being knocked down. the other shall retire to his corner and if the knock-down happens to occur in said boxers corner, then he shall retire to a neutral corner. But in most eases the boxer who has se- cured the knockdown tries to stand over his opponent, or directly behind the referee who is counting, in order to gain an advantage the moment the man on the mat rises. This very thing happened in one of the preliminary bouts at Hudson, Wis, last week, where the Pal Brown-Johnny Tillrnan contest was held. The bout in ques- ton was between two weIter weights and one of them scored a clean knock down. The referee had to push the man away so that he was better able to count over the fallen man. In the excitement the referee, who knew better, forgot to send the man to his corner. This same thing happens at nearly every boxing show where a knockdown is scored. It is up to the promoters and managers of clubs to see that the referees are thoroughly instructed on this point and have them

VANITlE VICTOR
 OVER DEFIANCE


 vanitie and Defiance, the cup de- fense sloops, barely drifted over the inst round of 29 3-4-miIe course on Long Island Sound and then sailed the rest of the race in an 1S-mile northwestern yesterday. Vanitie won on corrected and elapsed time It was the first real test they have had e&- cept one of the contests off Sandy Hook.
 10 minutes 26 seconds, and on actual time, Is minutes A.. seconds. Tn the light airs Vanitie easily outdfstanced her rival, and when the breeze came up the winner fairly flew away from the Tricity yacht. After the boats had drifted for nearly three hours, the wind shifted from the southwest to the northwest and freshened. so it knocked both boats down, and in the stronger puffs gave them more than they could stand up under without lufing.

GIL MORE AND COBB CONFER
 IN BUFFALO

Bunalo. N. Y.. June so.-President James A. Gilmore of the Federal base ball league and Ty Cobb of the De- troit Americans met yesterday in 9 hotel here. Rumorsl that the Federal league official had made Cobb an of fer to jump to the F'ederahs, were de- nied by both Gilmore and Cobb.
 We had just pleasant chat said President Gilmore. We discussed the baseball situation in general. and af- ter a few. minutes talk Cobb left to umpire a. baseball game. The matter of his joining the Federal league, now or at any. other time, was not raised.''
 President Gilmore stated that he came here to assist Hal Chase in free ng himself from the injuncpon se- cured by attorneys of the Chicago White Sox, winch prohibits the first baseman from playing with the Buff falo team in New York state. He brought with him the leagues attor- ney, and stated that papers would probably be served within the next five. days calling upon the White Sox attorneys to show cause why the in Junction should not be vacated.
 Pending the outcome of the Iitiga- ton no attempt will be made to play Chase, either, in this or any other state, eaid Gilmore, because, he add ed, should Chase play with the Buf- falo team outside the state he would be in contempt of court in New York state and JialbIe to arrest if he came into the state.

BROOKLYN
 FEDS REDUCE THEIR PRICES

The Brooklyn Federal League club announced last night that. beginning. with tomcrrow's game between the Tiptops and BunaIo, there will be a. general reduction of prices at Wash ington Park. The sun lbleachers have been abandoned, and the fam who formerly patronfzed these seats will get a. c1aazr in a section of the grand stand for 2s cents. The remainder sof the stadium, excepting, the two front rows. will be 50 cents.
 Baseball prices are too high, v said President Robert B. Ward, who made the announcement of the cut. There are many persons who would like to xo to the ball park and watch a game from a good seat, but cannot afford to do it. and therefore stay away We receive daily scores of letters telling us this
 ssFhere is the same complaint, am told. all over the country The peo- DIe want entertainment, and are will ing to pay for it if they can afford, to. The moving pictures have shown us tFlaf~there is a demand but only at rYonular prices Almost all of the big theatrical producers have seen the light and are catering to those who patronize the picture palaces I think if Is firne for the baseball magnates to consider the fan's pocketbook, too"

warn boxers regarding itI There is no reason why a boxer should try to stand over a man who is knocked down in order to gain an additional advantage, for he certainly has a biz enough handicap when he scores the knockdown.
 Charles White, the Chicago light weight, is going to have a rough time in Denver on July 18th, when he meets Stanley Yoakum, who is con- sidered another Battling Nelson in that district. They are to meet in a ten round contest and, according to form, Charley should be able to make the Yoakum boy see several kinds of stars. But you never can tell what these rough and ready fighters will do. Yoakum fought twenty round draw with Rudy Unholf at Las Vegas, N M, the night before the Johnson Flynn championship battle. Since then he has been meeting some very good boys around Denver and he has been showing improvement right along. So much, in fact, that the fol- lowers of the game in Colorado are ready to back him against any man

We have with us again the rumor that Tsys Cobb will soon be a member of the New York Americans. It is claimed that organized baseball fears the Federals will win the Georg1a' Peach away from Detroit at the end of this season. Rather than let GOOD 20 to the outlaws the Detroit club might be persuaded to let him join New York. This change would prob ably appeal to Cobb who craves ,ad- 1airationN and lae would enjoy to the. limit the applause of New York rans.
 The conference in Buffalo, IN. Y., be- tween President Gilmore of the Fed erals and Cobb has undoubtedly caused organized ball to- do some thinking. Cobb's recent escapades with the butcher has put him in bad with De- troit fans. The papers are roasting him and take delight in reviewing Cobb's numerous troubles in the past. Of course New York would have to pay we'll for Cobb but it would be a profitable investment
