FAVORS LIFTING THE
 BAN ON FRESHMEN

Washington. Sept. 25-Steps taken by the Big Nine" and the Missouri Valley football conferences, composed of the largest colleges and universi- ties in the middle West, to waive eligibility rules this year and permit freshmen to play were endorsed yes- terday by Col. R. I. Rees of the Gen. eral Staff, in charge of the Students Army Training Corps.
 In a, letter to Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, who at the request of the officials of both conferences submit ted the matter to the War Depart ment, Col. Rees wrote:
 "Inasmuch as the men in the Stu dents Army Training Corps would be there a relatively short time and that the personnel of this corps Is subject to change it seems feasible to allow all men in the corps to participate in all athletic contests.
 "It is the desire that every man re- ceive a maximum amount of physical training and that this training will not be confined to any particular class or set of men. To this end intermural contests are urged, and such contests as will bring physical training to all of the corps are particularly sug- geSted"

FITZSIHMONS' FAMOUS FIGHT
 WITH DAN CREEDEN

It was 24 years ago tomorrow that Bob Fftzsimnhns gained a, clear and undiSputetl title to the middleWeight championship of the world by knock ing out his countryman, Dan Creedon, at New Orleans. When Bob left Aus tralia he left vacant the m;ddleweight championshop of that country, and it was claimed and successfully defend ed by Dan Creedon. The latter deter mined to follow Boh's course and came to America with the express purpose of challenging F'itz. Creedon defeated all the best American fight CTS in his class, anti then sent a defi to the freckled Bob. A New Orleans club offered S5,C0O for the bout. to be divided S4.O00 to the, winner and S1 ,0G0 to the loser the weight to be 15S pounds ringside, and Bob accepted.
 The weight and conditions were such as to give the victor clear title to the worlds middeweight cham pionship. Before the fight Fitz an nounced that it would be bis last as a midIleweight, and that he intended to go after the heavyweight crown F'itz had twD good advisers in Jack Demp- sey. the "Nonpareil," who had been mtddleweight champion, and Kid Mo Coy. Bob weighed only about 156 pounds, while Creedon weighen in at the limit. 15S pounds
 The challenger had a shade the best
 of it in the first round, landing sev- eral hard jolts. In the second inning Creedon went down before a stiff one t" the jaw, but got up at the count of nine. He had no sooner got to his feet than Fitz got after him, and sent over several blows to Dams face, Creedon was grogsy, while the free kled fellow was cool as a cucumber and made every blow count A hard l left to the jaw and stiff right pn the
 same spot put Creedon Sut of comnis-
 sion, and several minutes elapsed be
 fore he was able to sit up anii take
 notice. In the meantime Bob was
 waving q United States flag over the 7 pro9.rate body of his foe, and the fans
 were cheering wildly. When quiet was restored John Duffy, the referee
 announced that this was Bobs Jast
 battle in the middleweight division and that he would challenge Jim Cor. bett for the heavyweight title

SPLENDID CARD FOR REMINGTON

Boxing Fans Waiting For Big Smoker at the Club
 Good Ones Coming.

Great interest is being manifested by the local boxing fans in the com ing show of the Remington Arms Athletic Association, which is to be staged Friday night in their club rooms on the corner of Boston and Seaview avenues. The boxers who will appear are in training, and with the exception of substituting Eddie stanton of the Allegro Sporting Club of New York, who will tackle Young Thomas in place of Jeff Regan( who is in New Jersey and will be unable to appear), there will be no change in the bill
 Young Brown, who meets Hammer ing Howie of Providence, is working out daily at the R. A. A. A. gym and is showing rare form. Brown il anxious to meet Red Allen. Louis Bogash or Harry Condon at the next show, and If he is successful in his bout with Howie he will get the chance.
 This bout will mark Howie's first since his fatal bout with Danny Mo Donald at Woonsocket A. c. club last fall.
 The McMahon-Burns bout Is at tracting wide attention. Young Brooks and Phil Munroe are in fine fettle for their bout, and as both are we'll known to the local fans 1t is unnecessary to eXtoll their fine points.
 One of the largest gatherings of the | fairer sex is expected at the show, | and I would not be a. bit surprised | to find them outnumbering the males i present. Andy Parker will referee and Mike O'Connor wil hold the time piece.
 | Hammering Howie, the tough Providence boxer who meets Young Brown of Bridgeport at the R. A. A. A. show next Friday night, sent a letter to Jack Brewster, the match maker, saying that hes was in the best of shape for the bout and would certainly surprise Young Brown and his followers on the night of the con 1 test; he says-"I have seen Young Brown box at the Casino in your city against Charley Bergen, and I am certain he will prove real easy pick ing for me. I am working out daily at my training quarters here and you can rest assured I will be in the best of shape for the bout. l find in g good many cases where a boxer like myself boxes at an out-of-toWn clut he Is expected to hold the local pride up. Now, I positively will not pull my punches or hold Brown up in oul bout, so I want you to understand
 my feelings in the matter before go down there. Thanking you sin cerely for giving me the chance to ap pear in Bridgeport, I sign myself

ELKS PLAY BALL FOR BENEFIT OF
 THE RED CROSS

Bridgeport's E1ks annual ball game with Derby lodoge will be paved here next Sunday at Newfield Park, the en- tire proceeds from this game to go to the Red Cross. The annual game with Derby is looked forward to by the members of Bridgeport lodge in the same spirit of rivalry as Yale looks forward to its game with Prince ton, this being the tenth year the ball teams of the two lodges have fought for supremacy on the diamond. Last Sunday in Derby the game was won by the Derby antlers by the score of to 2. It was discovered early in the game, however, that the brothers up the valley had slipped a little some thing over on the local boys by adding two or three big leaguers to their pitching staff. While this was not strictly according to Hoyle the Park City men made no protest but started in to hammer the ball all over the lot. The long hits were made, however, when the bases were empty and the sluggers from Bridgeport had to be content with a two spot score. Err TOTS on the part of the locals enabled Derby to score six runs More than 2,50O people witnessed the game in the valley city, which was also under the auspices of the Red Cross.
 Mayor Wilson of Bridgeport Lodge of Elks, himself an old twirler, in days gone by, will pitch the first spit ter over the plate for the local boys, while Mayor Sullivan of Derby, the old F7ordham star, will do the honors for the visitors. Mayor Wilson will also extend the annual welcome to the Derby boys as he has done for several years past. It is expected that more than 5000 will attend the game this year and the antlers of the home lodge will be put through heavy
 practice drill every afternoon this week.

TENNIS IS PLAYED
 AT TOURNAMENT
 AT ENGLISH CLUB

New York, Sept. 25-Evidently ser vice with the navy and army abroad has not dulled the playing edge of some of the American eennis stars ment the racquet work of certain mentment the racquet work of certain players at the Queens Club, London, The speed and skill of at least one young American has been compared favorably with that of the gre,t Mau- rice Mclaughlin and this coming from an English writer critic leaves nothing to be desired in this direction.
 The compliments comment arose as the result of the playing of a tour nament last month at the Queens Club for the benefit of blinded soldiers which attracted, besides Americans, 8 number of star players from many of the allied countries.
 One of the contests was between teams picked from the British and American navies on one side and from the British and American armies on the other. Admiral Sims of the American navy and General Riddle o1 the American army were present. The contest, which smacked of Wimbledon in pre-war days, was won by the army combination, 13 sets to 12.
 Two Americans, Ensigns F. T Hunter and Hard, of the United States navy, played together in brilliant style winning all their matches and thei work, particularly Hunters, excitec the admiration of the crowd. Londo1 sport experts compare him to Nc Loughlin. One wrote in mornins paper:
 What could have been better thar the terrific service of Ensign Hunter Here was a replica, so far as pace wa concerned, of the work of McLough lin, whose fight with Anthony WildinE at Wimbledon will be easily recalled Hunter got his pace on in a differen way from what Mclaughlin used t, do. There was not all that fourisl In the backward skwing. The intens pace came from forearm and wris: He served one game straight off, an, | as a rule his second service was jus as terrible as the first. The servic | of Hunters was the great stunt o | the afternoon.
 In the opinion of this writer, bot | Hunter and Hird, must be ranked 1,
 the class of the best players of tn 1 old Wimbledon days, most comple 1 mentary classification.

DZXON-S SMITH CONTEST

Just a quarter of a century ago to- day, Sept. 25. George Dixon defeated Solly Smith in seven rounds at Ooney Island This was the Los Angeles boys first battle in the East. He made a reputation in California in 1899 by knocking out Dal Hawkins a 56- round llraw with Iron Man" George Siddons, and had also knocked out Johnny Griffin at Roby, Ind, but the clever ChoSolate Drop was too much for him. In 1894 Solly fought a draw at Buffalo with Frank Erne, and alsD got draws with the clever Griffo and George Lavigne. In 1896 Smith was twice matched with Johnny Lavack, both engagements ending in draws. and in 1897 he was victorious over Oscar Gardner and Johnny Griffin. In the fall of that year Smith was again matched with DixDn for the featherweight championship. The bout was staged in san Francisco, and Smith go: the decision in 20 rounds, and became the featherweight cham pion. About a year later he lost the title tD aDve Sullivan in New York.
