ANNIVERSARIES
 OF RING BATTLES

1SS3-John L. Sullivan defeated Charlie Mitchell in 8 rounds at New York. The bout between the Ameri- can champion and the clever English midd1eweight was staged in Madison Square Garden and attracted big crowd. Although Sullivan followed his usual roaring bluffng tactics, Mitchell refused to be intimidated, and actually succeeded in stretching the Bostonian out on the floor! N1itchelPs smiling nonchalance en- ragged Sullivan, and he went at his tormentor so ferociously that Capt. Williams, the referee, stopped the bout in the Srd round, although it had been scheduled for 4 rounds. Not long afterward Mitchell and Sullivan were again matched to box 4 rounds in the Garden, but when John l.. ap- peared in the ring he was barely able to stand up and announce that %he was too sick to go on. John had the appearance of one who had been hav- ing joust with John BarIeycorn, and had come off second best. Mitchell and Sullivan did not meet again until 1888, when they fought a. 3e-round draw in France.

PERRITT GETS
 FIRST VICTORY
 FOR NEW YORK

New York, May 14.-With his broken nose once more restored to it's rightful place among his features, Pol Perrttt went on themound for theGiants yes terday and wrenched off his first vic tory of the season. He beat the Gin cinnati> Reds to 3 in an exciting game He held the Reds to six hits and he pitched himself out of diff cuIty in the ninth, when the Reds threatened to rally on him and tie the score.
 Heinte Groh took great liking to PoPs pitching and unIoaded couple of smacking- big two-base hits Not since the palny days when Handsome Harold Mccormick used to rip off pinch hits by the half dozen has the Polo Grounds seen as good a pinch hitter as Count Von KoInitz has shown himself to be within the last few days. He has appeared as a pinch hitter on three occasions. and twice he has banged out two base hits and the soth- CT time. he singled.
 Manager Charley Herzos was back in the game at short, although his spiked left wrist is by no means all right Both infields yesterday did some neat fielding which was both rapid and accurate.

SEXTON
 QUITS HARVARD
 SQUAD IN HUFF

Cambridge, Mass, May 14.-Har- ward S baseball. coach. pr. Frank J. Sexton, formerly of Brown University, ,wno has been in charge of the hines at Cambridge since 1911, resigned yes teFday and his resignation was accept ed by the Harvard Advisory Baseball Committee. Dr. Sexton, in a statement, says that he resigned because of the tee with his work as coach, in as much as the committee demanded that he allow it to send somei old Harvard players out to Cambridge to assist him in the development of his catchers and his outdeId
 The baseball committee, which had a conference with Dr. Sexton last Thursday, states through Graduate Treasurer Fred W. Moore of the liar ward A. A. that 1t suggested that w. T. Reid, '01s and B. Wendell, '02, both ion and that Dr. Sexton agreed to the proposition. On Tuesday however, pr. Sexton wrote the committee stating that he would not accept the assist anee offered, and last night said he never did agree to accept it. The first break came at meeting yesterday af- ternoon.
 No successor for Dr. Sexton has been selected, but it is probable that the committee will arrange with Percy D. Haughton, the football coach to act as field coach for the nine for the bal ance of the year and to supervise the baseball work which will be in charge of the committee and such old players as may be available. Haughton played on the nine four years and was captain in 1898.

CORNELL OFF
 TO PRINCETON
 FOR BOAT RAGE

Ithaca, N Y, May 14-The Cornell Varsity and freshmen crews left here { last night for Princeton to row against Yale and Princeton on Saturday in az regatta on Lake arCnegie They were cheered by hundreds of students who eormed a parade line on the campus and marched through the city to the station.
 Short speeches. expressing the deter imitation of the crew to uphold Cor nelPs rowing traditions were made by Commodore Films, OBrien and Wellesy= the three Varsity veterans remaining in the crew squad, but Coach Court ney did not attend. He did not accom- pany the crews to Princeton. The demonstration last night was one of the most unusual in the annals ofarow- ing at Cornell.
 While the Varsity crew has been slow this spring due to bad weather and late start, it is believed that in the last week the men have improved and the chances for their success Sat urday are much brighter than they were two weeks ago. The, Varsity will probably. be as good as the aver age Cornell eight when it rows Yale and Princeton.

 It was said yesterday that Fromme asserted that. under the Players Fra ternfty agreement with the Natfonal Commission, he was entitled to his unconditional release. However, the records prove that Fromme has not, as is required by the agreement, been in the majors ten years. He broke into the National with St. Louis, in 1907. from the Three-I League.
 Fromme came here two years ago from Cincinnati in a trade for Red ,Anes, Heinie Groh and Josh Devore -one of the biggest gold brick deals arranged byNany big league manager. F'ronme had a habit of beating the Giants for the Reds, but as a. Giant he showed only occasional flashes of form

.COFFEY ANXIOUS TO TAKE ON WILLARD
 FOR CHAMPIONSHIP

New York. May 14.-Anxious to get the championship crown as quickly as possible Jim Coffey has been making determined efforts to corner Jess Will lard in the ring on Memorial Day. The bout, if held, will take place in the arena of the Brighton Beach Sport ing club, About a week after beat ing Johnson, Willard gave the Bright on Beach club an option on his ser vices for his first, battle in defense of his title.
 He will probably be willing to tackle Coffey, now that his theatrical tour has proven such a frost
 Coffey says he is a better man. Fur thermore the Dublin giant intends to prove it so conclusively that there won't be a single doubtdng Thomas to say him nay.
 'tI'u fight and beat every one of them,' he told Manager Billy. Gibson. ''Sign 'em ups Billy. one att a time and I'll do the rest
 So Billy Gibson hied himself to the Brighton Beach Sporting club head quarters and signed a contract which reads in part:
 1.-The said Coffey to box on Memo rial day, 1915, against any heavy weight selected by said Brighton Beach Sporting club; said opponent to be named by the club not later than noontime Monday, May IT, 1915"

YALE WILL USE SHOTPUTTER ROOS
 AGAINST HARVARD

New Haven, May 14.-Ya1e did not use William F. Roos, her best shot butter, in the dual games against Princeton last Saturday, and, although it was rumored that he might not be sent into the Yale Harvard meet here tomorrow, a Yale track official said yesterday that he had been formally entered and would probably compete.
 Roos went to Columbia. University a few weeks before he came to Yale He has competed two years in Yale dual meets If his residence at Co., lumbia is counted as a year in athlet- ics he is ineligible to take part in to- morrow's games. As Roos did not take part in athletics while in Colum- bia it is maintained that he is fully eligible to compete against Harvard this year and is entitled to this year in athletics.
 Roos threw the shot forty-six feet in the relay games at Philadelphia three weeks ago, and seems sure of the event if he competes next Satur- day. Without him Yale can hardly expect to capture the meet. Alecl wilson, the Yale football captain, has been hurried to the weight-throwers' squad.
