ABERG LIKELY TO
 RETAIN HIS TITLE

.S New Yok. Dec. 20-With the begin
 ming of the seventh week of the west
 ling tournament in the Manhattan Opera House the contest has narrow
 ed to a point where Aberg, Zbyszko,
 Lewis and the Masked Marvel are the
 survivors. It is among these men that
 the prizes will be divided, and all the Indications are that Aberg, the cham
 pion, will retain his title.
 He will bee ompe1led to decfsive1y Edefeat the Pole the Strangler and
 hooded demon and there is small doubt as to his ability to win at Graeso-Roman, as Zbyszko, who is his
 most formidable rival. at that style of
 wrestling. has been decisiYely defeated
 by the title holder.
 2 Were the style catch-as- -catch-can e8l1 three of the other contenders Would have an. excellent chance5 for all of the trio are expert leg grapp1ers.
 Aberg's tremendous strength and vii
 ta1ity give him a great advantage in a style where the contestants are pro- shibited taking any hold below the waist and while his rivals are quite Fas skiIlful as the big Russian, yet his powers of endura nee and 4tenacity are likely to return him a winner. ta KY Aberg will not wrestIe catch-as- 1catch-can, SO the struggle for the
 honors at that style of going should
 be a pretty one and the probable wfn- ner difficult to pick.

ANNIVERSARIES
 OF RING BATTLES

1905-Phi1adelphi Jack oO'Brien knocked out Bob Fitzsfmmons in the 18th round at San Francisco. By this. victory the Quaker City fighter lclaineds the heavyweight cham pi on ship on the theory that the title ha q reverted to Ruby Robert when Jeff fries retired. Jeff himself favored Marvin Hart after the latter had de- feated Jack Root at Reno shortly be- fore O'Brien tackled the veteran Fftz. When Hart fell before Tommy Burns, the Canadians claim to the title was disputed by -O'Brien. Jack had whipped Tommy before. and he was confident that he could do>'t again, but when the men met in Los AngeIes in the latter part of 1906 O'Brien found that the Canuck had improved a lot, and they went 20 rounds to a draw. The next year they fought aganf and Tommy got the, decision at the end of 20 rounds. Although only a rniddIeweight, O'Brien was undoubt- edly one of the best men in the ring a decade ago. Stanley Ketchel was the only white man who ever knock ed him out. Young Peter Jackson turned the trick early in O'Brien ca reer and Sam Langford put him to sleep in 1911, when Jack was about all in as a scrapper.
 1S95-Frank Erne and Young Griffo fought four-round draw in Buff fa1o.

 LONG SUSPENSIONS

New York. Dec. 2O-Leach Cross and Ad wolgast will have to appear before the State Boxing Board tonight to answer charges. Chairman Wenck declared last night that Wolgast vio- lated contract with the Harlem Sporting club, and that unless Cross goes, through with a contract he made with the same club the boxer may draw, a '6O-day suspension. Wenck said he would recommend to the con- mission that Wolgast be suspended for six months.
 ttWo1gast violated a contract with the Harlem Sportingc Tub when he boxed last Tuesday night in ,Atlanta,'' said Wenck. 5esWhen reports from the South reached here that Wo1gast was
 under a rigid physical examination before he was allowed to box. Friday. night. Nothing in his external condi- tion prevented his going 10 rounds against Cross. barring knockout.

He bIuffed me into believing that he was in condi- ton to go, 10 fast rounds when he knew very we'll that he was not I shall recommend to the commission that he be suspended for six months $ on two counts-breaking a contract and accepting money for a bout that he was in no condition to go through with.''

CORNELL FAvORS JUNE l7 FOR BIG
 HUDSON REGATTA

New York. Dec 2o.Fsol1oyiing the report of the mitch over tf1e date of the PQughkeepsie regatta comes the news that Cornell favors June and not ufy I. Pannsyf fva1lia was the n4sst to suggest the later date, as the Quakers' examinations star5 on June 5 and extend beyond the 17th
 Coach Charles B. 5 Courtney is in favor of June 1 ' because of better ti- da1 conditions. However, this pro- gram will crowd CornelFs three fm- portant varsity races-those with Yale and Princeton, theone with Har- ward and the big Hudson river event into a comparatively short space of time
 If the race is rowed on June IT, Pennsy1vania will have to send a. member of the faculty tos Poughlz sic to conduct the examinations Of the. crews. Cornell will be forced to do likewise, but Columbia will have fn- ished this work and will be free for rowing only. Yale, years ago, created a precedent in sending professors to Gales Ferry to supervise exanina tions.
 If the earlier date is selected the Ya1e-Harvard regatta at New Lon. don wifi be tine last university boat races of the year, falling on June B.

YALE HASN'T MEN TOM SHELvEN SAYS

Fred Merkle, 27 Today, Has Recovered
 His Swatting Eye

Birthday congratulations are due today to Frederick C. MerkIe, who was responsible for enriChing the English language by the addition of the word
 tmerkle," which means, according to Webster's Unexpurg gated, 'tto pull a bone" Fred has attained the mature age Of twenty-seven years, and, by his subsequent work as first baseman of the Giants, has long since atoned for the ttcrime of 1908.'' In spite of the son, Fred played his usual heady game, and at bat he came within a point of Joining the small and select circle of National League 1900 swat ters. He has apparently recovered his batting eye, for his 1915 average of -299 is a great Improvement over 1914, when he got -25S. In 1912 Merk1e batted 1909, but after that he s1unped to .261 in 1913.
 Fred was born in Watertown, Wis, a lively little, manufacturing city about forty-five miles west of Mi1wau- kee... Incidentally, it is called Water town because of the power derived from water and not because of any fondness of it's inhabitants for that queer stuff as beverage. Toledo has been Merkle's Winter address for sey- eraI years. He broke into professional baseball at Tecumseh- Mich, and it was. in 1907, when he was a kid of eighteen, that he joined the Giants. Naturally, considering his age and previous condition of servitude, he was quite everdant when he donned the spangles in the Big Village. McGraw Mound him an apt student, and eager to learn, and predicted great. things for the German lad. The fat came pretty near to being in the fire when he failed to touch second in a decisive game in 1908, and so Ioststhe pennant for his club. ots of veterans have pulled bones quite as bad t'but the New York fans didn't consider that, nor were they inclined to be 1enient because of F'red'S extreme youth. If they had had their way. Merkle would have been ridden. out of baseball on a rail. It is, to the eternal credit of McGraw that he refused to heed the popular clamor. and kept MeFk1e on the papro1l. a5 The Gotham fans have had many opportunities since to be thankful that McGraw stood pat, and that sMerkle was built of such stern stuff that he wasn't disheartened by the opprobrufm and pop bottles show cred upon him
 MerkIe is the 1atestfof a long roll of siI1ustrious men who have held down the initial bag for the Giants. When the Troy club was transferred to New York in 1883, Roger Connor, one of the best first Sackers of the period was on the job. SConnor stuck with the Giants until 1894 although re- placed at first a short time by Alex ander McKinnon, a veteran who had played with the Syracuse Stars, the Capital Citys, and the Athletics Many other good men have since played first for the Giants, but perhaps. the great est was Dan McGann, who Joined the team in 1904. Dan gave way to: Fred Penney, who in turn was succeeded by Merk1e.
