PARKE DAVIS ARGUES
FOR ADMISSION FEES

Way to Support Sport Can
Be Found.

PRINCETON. Fob. H.-Parke H.
Davis. Princeton member Of the inter-
collegiate football rules committee. has
orbitant prices charged for admission
to the various sports. According to his
figures a student at Princeton would
have had to pay $31.75 to have attended
all OF the contests that were held in
Princeton last year. He further cites
the examples Of the Western colleges.
where a special price for students is
charged. in many cases the students
paying a nat rate for admission to all
athletic contests.
President Hibben's report has turned
attention to this subject, for he ex.
pressed the hope that the day would
come soon when the students would be
, admitted to witness their own sports
at merely nominal charge or without
admission at all
After discussing the various methods
OF financing the sports at other insti.
tutions, Davis points out that at Prince
ton there are twelve different branches
OF sport. only three of which were self
supporting. the surplus from baseball
and football making the other athletics
possible. He concludes: Competition

If Andy Cortez, the Hoboken light
weight, who gave Tommy Lowe such
a tough struggle at the old Ardmore
Club, is not matched for Washing
toms birthday, he will probably meet
Tommy Langdon, of Philadelphia, at
the new Ardmore Club in a fifteen
round bout on that date. Word is
expected tomorrow from AL McMur-
ray, manager Of Cortez.
In obtaining Cortez, the Ardmore
Club is going out its way to bring
a real opponent for Langdon to this
city. The Hoboken slugger is q
h;gh-priced performer, in demand at
all the clubs in New York city and
unable to work for small money. The
Ardmore management is Offering
him a handsome price to come here
on the holiday to go fifteen rounds
with Langdon.
"Langdon has begun training for this
bout with whoever the club selects to
meet him." says Elmer Wilson. man.
ager of the Philadelphia lightweight.
I'm going to show Washington fight
fans boy who'll give them a battle all
the way. While 1t is true that he is
now working in s,x-round bouts In
Philadelphia, 1t Is also true that he has
gone as far as twenty rounds with
some Of the best lightweights in the
country. 1t Is no new thing for him to
travel farther than six rounds. I un-
derstand that some knockers claim he
can go only six rounds. Wait till they
sec him at the end Of the bout, he'll be
travelling faster than in the opening
rounds"
Manager Wilson Is willing to wager
money that his boy will win. He says
that Langdon has been resting for a
long time. and is only now getting into
his stride.
"Langdon Is no piker as a light
weight" explains Wilson. Hell be out
there showing the fans good left-hand
and q strong right from beginning to
end. Cortez may be q strong boy. but
he'll have to go some to beat my boy
McMurray claims that Cortez has
been beating all the best boys in New
York ever since the boxing season has
opened and that coming here to NEE,
