Dillon's Fight
With Darcy Now
Up to Whitman

Albany. Feb. Ex-Governor Whitman
expects 20 decide tomorrow whether
he will prevent the Darcy-Dillon fight
in New York Monday night. The Gov
ernor to-day is considering information
laid before him last night, calling his
attention to the section in the boxing
law which provides that no bout shall
be held that violated public deccncy.
Governor Whitman has been in
formed that in Australia. while the law
does not call for conscription, It makes
j. obligatory upon all males between
the ages Of eighteen and twenty-five to
stay in the country for home defence
IN case Of war Information IN the
hands of he Governor TO the effect
that Darcys explanation as TO why he
left Australia at this time was that he
was not of military age until five days
after his steamer had sailed IL said TO
be a misleading statement in that
Darcy just passed his twenty-iiIst and
not his eighteenth birthday.
Another explanation given by Darcy
is said to be that he came here TO earn
money for his parents at home.
Against this statement is the Gov
errors information that Darcy had
earned nearly 100000 since he began
fighting. q,
The Governor is said to be i1clined
TO think there is some merit IN the
contention against Darcy.

Sporting Club on Friday night, worked
out yesterday afternoon before a criti-
cal gathering of sporting writer's at
bal IIswkins's roadhouse in The

with five heavyweights and made ia
vorable impression. He showed a fast
left hand and also some knowledge Of
how TO bring over the right when OPP
portunity arose.
Bonds is about an inch over six feet
in height and will enter the ring at
about $50 pounds, against Morris's
go odd but that does not seem to
worry him. Bonds informed the audi

Vollrner Leads
Columbia Team
In Swim Victory
Yale Loses Important Dual
Meet to Morningside
Heights Watermen
By A. c. CAVAGNAR0

Columbia University almost assured
itself of the intercollegiate swimming
championship by defeating the swim
mers Of Yale in dual swim in the
formers tank last night by a score OF
80 to 20 points.
Hal vollmer, the great Columbia star,
was directly responsible for the local
members winning their victory. Noll-
mer captured three races-the 90, 100
and 22O yard swims and it was his
thrilling finish that gave Columbia the
victory in the 2O0-yard relay rare.
The sturdy Yale combination was un-
able to check the efforts Of Vollmer.
Only two first places of the six events
held went to the Eli swimmers, these
victories coming in the plunge for dis
lance and the dive for form
With the exception of the 5O-yard
swim. Vollmer had little trouble in
blazing the trail for his rivals. In this
race Vollmer was pressed from the
start by Herbert, a schoolmate, and 1t
national champion a scant inches mar
gin. The time was 26 seconds.
I'm the l00-yard event Vollmer jumped
into the lead from the start, and al
though MAYER, of Yale, succeeded in re-
trieving some ground during the last
fifty wards, the Columbia entrant won
BY three yards in the fast time of 90 10
seconds The 220-yard swim found
Vollmer as the only Columbia compel
tor. He got away in the van, and
was never headed as he finished seven
yards in front Of Alexander, OF Yale,
in 2:34 3-5 seconds.
Yale suffered another defeat when
its water polo team was smothered by
Columbia by a score of 35 to l. The
only tally for the Eli players was
made by Peterson on free goal. Cleve-
land played a slashing game in cover
ing goal for Columbia, while both Noble
and Rosen always carried the attack
into the Yale territory. Noble scored
four Of Columbia's seven goals.

Hockey Hopes of
Ellis Blasted by
Princeton Team
Three Extra Periods Need.
ed to Decide Exciting
Cornerstone, 81
BY FRED HAWTHORNE

Princeton University defeated Yale
her oldest and dearest rival. in the
rubber" game Of hockey last night at
the st. Nicholas Rink. by a score Of 3
goals to ,. but only after three extra
periods Of play. The game was the
most desperately fought and the crowd
the largest and most enthusiastic seen
at game in this city since the start Of
the season.
Yale was the first TO score. when
Gould took the puck down alone and
scored from near the sideboards. after
ibout ten minutes play. Five minutes
before the first half ended Armour
Gagged the puck from a scrimmage.
While Bror Meyer and Miss Emmy
Bcrgfedt. worlds champion figure
skaters. were giving an exhibition dur
ing the ten-minute intermission be-
tween halves, Stewart Patton. the
Princeton coach. was feeding his
charges raw meat, at least they acted
that way when they returned for the
second half. The Bulldog barred his
teeth and snarled. but the Tiger for
once forgot all caution and fairly
ripped his way through the Yale CO.
horts.
Hills scored for Princeton from a
scrimmage before the half had gone
ten minutes, and this seemed 70 make
the Tiger even more feroclous, and the
Yale Gefence, which had been impreg-
nable in the goal zone during the first
half, was unable TO withstand the ter
rife assault of the Princeton forwards.
W. Humphreys tied the score ave min
utes before the end of the half, with a
beautiful shot from scrimmage.
The first and second extra periods
were tooth-and-nail sessions. Just be-
fore the end Of the second, Ford, the
Tiger goal tender. sprawled full length
as he tried to stop the puck. II slid
almost into the cage before he reached
on. with his stick as ne lay prone and
showed it to one side.
In the third extra session, during a
Wild scrimmage in front of the Yale
goal, ". humphreys got the puck and
slammed 1t home for the winning goal,
while 800 Princeton rooters gave vent
TO their enthusiasm Yale had lost her
chance to win the intercollegiate title.
