GAMES NOT TO
Be POSTPONED
Sportmen, Including Sullivan, Look
For 1916 0Iympics

New York, Sept. 9.-There will be no
postponement Of the 1916 Olympic
games. which are scheduled to be con-
tested at Berlin. This is the belief of
a number of prominent international
sportsmen, prominent among them be-
ing James e. Sullivan. secretary of the
American Olympic committee. Mr.. Sui
livan, who is close to the European
sportsmen high in Olympic councils,
stated that he has no word from Eur
ope on the subject of the 1916 games
since the war crisis came on, but he is
firm in the belief that the Olympic
meet scheduled for twenty-five months
hence, will be either transferred to
Rome, Italy; to the United States, or
else abandoned altogether.
The A. A. u. chief admitted, without
reserve, that all opinions on the sub
iect of the Berlin games are more or
less guesswork. but from his knowl-
edge of and confidence in the ability of
Baron Goubertin and his associates.
Mr.. Sullivan believes that the olympic
tangle will be worked out as told
above.
In the event OF the 1916 Olympics
coming to the United States, Mr. Sui
Ivan stated that he was i'm favor Of
holding the games in Washington. d.
c. He believes that n successful meet
could he organized for Washington on

Negro Boxer May Be Asked to
Tell How He Escaped

Washington, Sept. SACK Johnson,
the pugilist, indicted for white slavery
at Chicago, is to be brought back to
this country by the department OF JUS
tice and a new investigation is to be
made into the manner of his bail
jumping and his escape from the jur-
isriction of the Illinois federal court.
Agents OF the department have learn
cd that Johnson is i'm England. He
left France when il became dangerous
to remain in Paris because of the ad-
vance OF the German troops. The Eng
lish laws. ii is said, make il possible
to force the return OF Johnson under
his indictment.
There is intimation that Johnson
may be induced to return voluntarily
under promise of light punishment in
return for evidence showing how his
flight was engineered and who were
implicated. The department OF justice
is most desirous Of getting this in
formation because of rumors that have
been current since Johnson got away
from Chicago, connecting federal Off
cials with completely in the defeat of
Justice.
Johnson said some time ago that ii
cost him $4,000 o $4,000 TO make his
getaway, in addition 20 the bail money
he gave up. Sol Lewinsonn was bonds
man for Johnson. He disappeared
shortly after Johnson made his escape
and has kept hidden from the depart

his horse being photographed In this

YOST'S men To
Be NUMBERED
Michigan Leads Other Big Uni
versities in This Step

Michigan this year will number it's
foot ball players. This announcement,
or, better still. this declaration, was
made by Fielding II .Yost
THE public demands that foot ball
players be numbered and it seems to
be that the desire is a proper one"
declared Yost. often 1t is hard enough
for a coach to recognize the players
from the sidelines and If hard for me
or any of my fraternity-it must be
just about impossible for the real
spectators.
Il believe numbering the players will
add interest to the game. as the spec
tators will be able to follow the work
Of all the men and will not be forced
into accepting the team work and in
dulging i'm wild APPLAUSE for the player
it imagines is, or has carried the ball"
Coach Yost declared that it didn't
make any difference to him whether
other universities numbered their
players. Michigan had decided to adopt
the change and would go through on
present plans.
To graduate from the Yost School of
Foot Ball means license to teach
thereafter, evidently. Nearly every
man who works under the Tennessee
Wizard at Ann Arbor is wanted i'm
the capacity of coach by some minor
or major college as soon as Yost can
no longer use him.
Bubbles Paterson, last years cap
tain, will coach the University Of
Texas this year. He will be first as
sstant to Dave Allerdice, one of the
few good kickers Michigan produced.
Big Ernie Allemendinger goes to the
South Dakota School of Mines at
