Morris and Fulton Biggest Frosts in f Game Today.

From Indianapolis comes word that Worlds Champion Heavyweight Jess Willard will be ready to fight Fred Fulton some time in October Be that as it may, it isn't going to create any great furore in the ranks of the box ing fans. Interest in the work of the big men was waning. anyway and the full ebb tide got to work when Carl Morris and Fred Fulton got through with that awful thing of afternoon.
 The sporting world can do nothing but look back on the old days when the ring was frequented by real fight CTS of the John l.. Sullivan, the Jim Corbett, the Bob Fitzsimmons the Jim Jeffries and even the Jack John son stripe of battler. It makes them sick as anything to think of these who are now filling, or trying to fill, the places of such warriors.
 That battle out in Canton between men who were supposed to be the real Illogical contenders' and out of which was to come Jess Willard's next opponent was the tip-off on the class. Horrors! Think of such fight CTS being given even a chance to fight for the championship! Neither one of them could compare with the men who used to serve only as sparring partners in the camps of the real old champions who have passed away. There's no term too mean to express

COLUMBIA WILL HAVE
 FOOTBALL THIS FALL.
First Call for Candidates to Be Sent
 Out This Month.

After a period of speculation as to whether Columbia, university would follow in the footsteps of several ether universities in the matter of abolishing football. because of the war, students and alumni will be glad to learn that :he great autumn sport will not be abandoned at Morningside Heights.
 The first call for clndida tes will be made on Sept. 26, six days after col lege registration. rectice this year will be quite different than last year. As every man in college will have to participate in military drill each day, football practice will be limited to ihree times a week. The military drills will be of an hour and a half dura- tion, on South field. Coaches Metcalfe and Thorpe hope to overcome the ob- stacle by installing electric lights for night work. Bucking and other in structions in the rIdiments of the game will be possible with this inno- vation, so very little time will be lost.
 If the men under age gre granted furloughs the prospects of turning out a good team will be possible. Scott and Echells, star halfbacks last year, are at Newport. Both are under 21. There is also d chance that Hal Volmer, the crack swimmer, who also is football man, may come back. Volmer at pres ent is at Newport. He also has not cast his first ballot yet. It is very likely that Del Cochrane, the star full Lack, will don the moleskiEs onse more Cochrane failed to fit into Plattsburg
