GIBBONS AHEARN
 FIGHT POSTPONED


 New r ork, Dec Sword came from St. Paul last night that Mike Gibbons had been laid low by severe cold tha4 threatened pneumonia, and vSom1d. Consequently, be unable to box Young Ahearn there tomorrOT night, as scheduled. Should Gibbons physi- elan permit him to resume training on Monday, the bout will be staged frlS Friday, December IT, However, the xnedico averred that at this time 1t looked very much as if the scrap were off for at least two weeks.
 Gibbons illness is due to his wide 4v l7eraIded method of training, which azcIuded long tramps through the Minnesota snoWdrifts after game. Mike and his brother Tom have . brought down several bucks-the deer variety, and not the long green-on these hunting trips, and Sir Michael wrote here not so long ago that the 1aunts had put him into great trim. iEvident5y explera ations Of snowdrffts Is not the best thing iA the world for boxer about te engage ia a very in= pertant battle
 While Gibtong illness is .sdeplor- able, it has a bright side for the pro- HaoteFs They have been talking about $so,oOe houses. but report the other day had it that the advance sale was Aet as brisk as could be desired With a week OF two more to exp1oii the bout, the receipts should bf boosted considerably,

HAUGHTON CANNOT
 SELECT ALL STAR FOOTBALL ELEVEN


 Cambridge, Mass, Dec 9-''I am not qualified to pick an all-American or an alI-Eastern teams" said Head Coach Haughton, of Harvard, yestef- day
 ] .If I did try to select one I would name 30 men. Eleven men no long CT compose a football team. OOne can never tell what will happen to the first string players This is an ageS of preparedness.
 2 I.sAs regards the eastern quarter backs of 1915, believe Watson, of Harvard, was the best. Watson was a sound thinker and a captain gen eral; Click, of Princeton and Barrett, of Cornell, are remarkable football players But I believe they are nat ural halfbacks, but not as good as Watson at quarterback. d : tsGlick is a. wonderful defensive auartefback. Idid not see his equal in this department on the grtdfron during the season. Watson directed the play of the Harvard team. He handled the ball admirably. But he could not. begin to play immediately behind the line on defense as did the Princeton captain, nor could he carry the ball as remarkably as Bar rett or Click. But Harvard's quar- terbaeIs are not expected to do al those things''

 YALE FAVORS TAD JONES AS COACH

11eu Haven. Dec 9-The under@ graduate sentiments at Yale is grow ing stronger every day in favor of the selection of Tad Jones as football coach at New Haven next fall Jones' nonularity is due to the fact that some of the members of the football squad n1aved under Jones at Exeter Acad- e11av and at Pawling School
 If the new captain, Cupid" Black, has his say in the matter, it is be- liavad that Jones will be the choice, he played under. the former Yale ouarterback at both Pawling and lEx- eter
 Jones has had remarkable success at Exeter and in each of the last three seasons that acadenay's old-time rival. Afdover, has been overwhe1n- ingly defeated. Jones is rated as one of Yale's best quarterbacks, but his coaching experience has been brief
 Before the football coach is ap- pointed at New Haven, however, there may be a change in the athletic policy of that institution which would re- duce the power of the football cap tain and also the influence of the un- dergraduate body.
 There is a strong sentiment among the graduates in favor of an older man than Jones. Much interest cen- tres on Al Sharpe, not only because he has been successful with the Cor nell eleven, but because Sharpe, in his day, was a wonderful athlete al Yale.

RULE
 AT YALE BROKEN
 BY NEW ELECTION

New Haven, Dec. 9-The fraternity system at Yale recivd hard blow last night when the undergraduate body at a meeting in WooIsey decided to hold the elections of the second assistant managers of crew, track ahd baseball the last week in December instead of the first week in April, as has been the custom for years,
 To those nfanniliar with the sysz tenn at Yale the change appears to hold little significance, but it is reallu I a thrust against the fraternity donai- nation of the athletic situation. This evil has been one well realized by the
 majority of Yale men who have aI- ways held that Yale stood upon a platform of democracy. In fact, this spirit has become in college circles synonymous with Yale.
 The undergraduates by the vote last evening have placed themselves on record as being opposed to all fra l ternity politics when Ya1e's athletic welfare is made the object of the practice. It has been realized that the evil was a menace and the failure
 during the past football season has no doubt crystalized action against the custom of past years-

CANNOT AGREE ON DATE FOR REGATTA
 AT POUGHKEEPSIE

New York. Dec 91Despfte the fact that Morton Rogue, of Columbia, chairman of the Board Of Stewards of the Interco11sg1ate Rowing associa-- tor. has announced that the Pough- Keepnie regatta next spring would be held on June IT, it is by no means certain that the races will be con- tested on that date
 The association is in quandary, as it nposr be guided by tide conditions in nzfng the date, June IT and July l are the only two dates upon which tidal conditions in the river will be propftious for the regatta. and there are serious objections against each It developed yesterday that the associa- tion had fixed June IT only as ten- tatfye date.
 Should the races be staged on June q it is hardly possible that there will be an entry from the Pacific coast Last year the coast champion. Leland Stanford finishing second in one of the greatest struggles ever seen at Poughkeepsde. created most of the 1n~ I terest in the varsity eig11ts. With 8 veteran crew, Leland Stanford is likely to win the coast championship once more and in that event has been assured of the financial backing to make the trip East in good style.
 However, June 1T is too early a date for the coast crews, and their representatiyes have voted objections faEainst it. However. as all colleges except Cola1nbias Cornell and Penn syfvania compete at Poughkeeps1e ] onIy by invitation. they have no voice in the matter,
 Both. Cornell and Pennsyfvanfa. have entered objections to June IT, on the score that university examina- tio1s will be at tkefx height at that time. The faculties of both colleges will refuse to hold examinations at the Poughkeepsie boat houses. as is custoznary with the Yale and Harvard oarsfnen.
 It will mean a lot of added expense fo hold the crews over until July l. stewards will have tesdecide on July q.

.RITCHlE VACATES TITLE OF CHAMPION
 BY BOXING AT I42

New York, Dec. 9-WiIlie Ritchie last night practically vacated the American lightweight championship when he signed to box Kid (Ted) Lewis at 142 pounds, ringside in Mad ison Square Garden on Tuesday night. December 2S. It has long been evil dent that Ritchie could no longer make the lightweight limit, and his signing last night, is tantam ount to a public confessioni that he has drop ped out as contender in that class.
 The Garden management will bill the bout as being for the welterWeight championship. Lewis has also posed as a lightweight, although he has rarely tipped the beam at less than 145 pounds, and in his case. too, there's a confession of inability to qualify in the 135-pound division.
 With two such boxers as Ritchie and Lewis invading the weIterWeight class there's bound to be Increased ac- tivity and interest in that neglected division, which has not had a cham pion since the Dixie Kid held the title. Many more so-cal1ed Ightweights are bound to be forced to box in the well ter class, and a new title holder is bound to be developed.
 The Garden management last night also arranged tentatively, a return en- gagement between Frank Moran and Jim Coffey for January 8. Moran whipped Coffey some time ago.
