AMHERST HOPES
TO REMEDY ALL
ICE DRAWBACKS

Amherst, Mass, Feb. 1o.-Intercollc-
giate hockey, dropped in 1914, may be
revived at Amherst as q result of pres
ent interest in the sport. Steps are
being taken to remedy the bad ice con-
ditions which led to unsuccessful sea-
sons. The Amherst rink Is an open one
and spells Of warm weather not only
cause cancellation Of games with bad
financial results, but interfere greatly
with team training and put the men un-
der a handicap when meeting teams
which have had constant practice on an
enclosed rink. IL is planned to remedy
the difficulty by canvas awnings to pro-
tect the ice from sun or snow, and by
building the sheet of ice directly on the
ground.
As evinced By interclsss series dur
ing the last three years. there is no
lack Of hockey material in the college,
while an alumni coaching system may
be tried.

portant A. A. u. meets, several featured
by district championship contests, are
to be held in New York, Philadelphia,
Pittsburgh, Chicago, Los Angeles and
San Francisco. College swimmers Of
most sections will resume activities
after a rest enforced by midyear ex-
aminations. The high school watermen
are booked TO take part in number
of aquatic fixtures, and the fair nata-
tors will have their full share OF the
open competition.
Local interest centres upon four
meets in which home teams or contest
ants will appear. Tomorrow the. City
College fish visit New Haven for
clash with Yale. On Wednesday the
New York A. c. is scheduled to super
wise the Metropolitan 220-yard swim
ming and fancy diving championships
in its own pool. On Friday City Col
lege and Columbia will try conclusions
in the latter's natatorium. Pennsyl-
vania and Yale engage in their second
battle Of the season at New Haven. -.

offers unusual attractions. In the 220-
yard title swim a great duel should
be witnessed between Herbert Vollmer,
worlds record holder at the distance,
and his team mate, Teddy Cam, who
last September defeated not only the
latter, but several other furlong
swimmers Of international calibre in
Honolulu. The fancy diving cham
pionship has received a fine entry
headed by Albert Downes, Of the New
York A. c., the outdoor holder, and
promises to be remarkable exhibition.
A scratch plunge for distance, also on
the card. will bring to the mark a
group of the leading performers in
America. The 100-yard handicap swim
and a game OF soccer water polo COM
plete the programme.

MIDDLE SPORTS COST
DEPARTMENT $4,000

In view Of the big expenditures which
are being made annually by many Of
the larger Eastern universities TO sup
port football, Il is interesting to note
the statistics at the United States Ma
val Academy, where every sport is con-
Quoted without an admission charge.
Football is by far the most important
sport. The others with an intereolle-
gate flavor are baseball, crew. track,
basketball, lacrosse, wrestling. swim
ming, gymnastic,, fencing, tennis and
rife shooting. To sustain these twelve
sports the academy receives an appro-
priation Of $4,000 from the Navy De-
partment and tho rest Of the money
comes from the Midshipmen's Athletic
Association and the Navy Athletic As
ISOLATION.

"Ti1e Not Threatened" Is Wllard'S
AHh for Not Fighting Ottener

that's not done under the Marquis OF
Queensberry rules. II is required that
there should be two boxers in the ring.
"Please mention this fact. The name
of the other boxer boxer is-let me see.
| have a good memory for faces, but
not for names. 1t has escaped me for
the moment Oh, now I know. The
other boxer is Charlie Weinert'"
The chances are that Fulton will dis
nose of Weinert effectively, and proba-
bly by a knockout. But that does not
prove anything much.
WeInert had great opportunities at
the start of his career, but he tossed
them away. He was beaten By Dillon
and Miske. Consequently, il Fulton
does knock out Weinert. he should not
give more than three cheers over the
victory. The ferocious and formidable
Frederick must dispose of Miske before
he can do much strutting.
The alibi of the Fulton contingent
for avoiding Miske is that the st. Paul
boy is too small. But Miske is not too
small to whip Weinert, and. by way OF
variety, TO whip Jack Dillon, who beat
Weinert twice. once by the Knockout
route.
Fulton's graceful and agile side-step-
ping of Frank Moran will not gather
him much prestige either.
Shamus Coffey, the pride Of County
Roscommon, Ireland. and County Bronx,
New York, came back last week after
seven months of retirement. The Irish
hope beat his man handily, but he
seemed to have lost some of the power
of wallop that he had before Frank
Moran rocked him to sleep with right
hand lullaby.
But Coffey shows signs Of improve
ment in one direction. He took several
healthy punches on the jaw without
wabbling like torpedoed ship. 1t was
the jaw that used to be Cofey's vital
Joint, just as it was Peter Makers. II
Coffey can take them on the Jaw with
the same sang froid he displayed last
week he may yet be heard from as one
Of those almost logical" contenders.
