Blue Ribbons Will
 PrOlOng Basketball
 Season Two Weeks
Despite Defeat At Hands of All Stars From New York Local Players Decide to Comply With Popular De mand For More Sport.
By RIGHT FORWARD.

Basketball has secured a strong foothoId in Bridgeport with the re suit that the season this year will probably not close for at least two weeks to come. Bridgeporters have taken to the game with surprisingly wonderful success.
 Although 1t had been previously advertised that with the termination of last nights game between the New York Parson team and the Blue Rib bons the local season would terminate there has been such a strong demand for a continuation of games that the management of the local contingent has resolved to boo:v two more fast teams before called i- au revOir.
 Financially the season has been a splendid one although last nights at tendance fell below that of the pas five weeks. But this can be account ed for by the presence of Holy Week
 Then, too, one must take into c0nsid- eration the intense interest displayed in the Blue Ribhons-Ansonia series. But, all in all, this has been a. great year. The contests have been unusually spectacular at times. The Ansonia series in par l ticuIar was productive of some of i the best games witnessed in this | section in a long, long time. The l fans have responded encourag- l ingly and 1t has been because of 1 this splendid patronage that Man ager Jack Leavy has been inspir-

RICHARD HAS
 MADE UP MIND

New York, April 16-Jess Willard, worlds heavyweight boxing cham pion, and Jack Dempsey, challenger, will battle for the title July in the eastern section of the country. This decIara ton was made yesterday, by Tex Rickard, promoter of the pro- posed bout, and was the first definite statement on the respective avail ability Of East and West.
 In what city the match would be conducted Rickard refused to state. He is withholding announcement of the exact site awaiting completion of negotiations he has under way at the present time. Rickard stated posi- lively howeve~ that the contest would not be conducted in New Eng land. In view of this declaration it was accepted as probable that Mary land would get the big battle. The site the promoter has in mind per nfts only limited round bouts Be yord that Rickard would say noth- ing
 The pr1nClpal reason for conduct ing the match in the East, Rickard said, was that this section of the country promises the greatest fnan- ciaI success for the undertaking.
 "The big money Is in the East" Rickard said in making known his decision.
 The offers of Western promoters have all been attractive but the hardships of travel which would be necessity if I accepted any of the offers prompted my decision against all of them. Then, too, with prac- ticaI-y all of the offers 1t was provid- ed that I should sell my interest in the bout for @ stimulated amount. This is furthest away from my plans, for will personally conduct the match The interest in the contest and the travelling facilities of the East have made me confident that in this section of the country only could be assured Of success.
 "A limited number, of rounds will he arranged. Personally, I think 12 rounds ample fer one or the other Of the boxers to show decisive superior ity If Willard cannot knock out Dempsey within 12 rounds tho op- posite result will be accomplished, I am sure"
 Rickard was Tn conference with John W Snyder of Cumberland. Md, again yesterday. but the promoter re fused to discuss the conference.

This will be SeHers's last race before his match with Joie Ray at 1000 yards which is sched- u1ed for a, week from Monday at the 18th Regiment arEnory.

 Joie Ray was satisfied with his rec ord breaking performance in the mile last Thursday night and did not take part in the specially arranged time trial on Friday night. Joe Stout of the University of Chicago. was the only entry to attempt 3 record for the mile against time. Stout. ran the best of his career and came within two seconds of Rays time of 4:14 4-5. He was paced on the last three laps of his trial by Ray

BEST SOCCER GOAL SCORERS
 IN B!C GAHE
They Will Come Together in
 Championship Game At Fall River Next Saturday Afternoon-S Soccer News.
By JOE BOOTH.

The cading goal scorers of the country will be pitted against one another in the battle for the soc cer championship of the United States at Athletic Field, Fall River, Mass, next Saturday afternoon. IL the Beth lehem array will be Harry Jay Rati- can, center forward, and the premier goal scorer of the country, q. grad uate of the St. Louis school and prob ably tLe most capable Amerlcan-born soccer player of the age. Ratican has been bothered much by illness this season, but in the 16 of Bethle- hem's 24 games in which he has played. he has netted the ball IT times or better than g goal per game, which is far and away the best rec ord of any of the Bethlehem for wards.

COACHES SHOULD
 BE PROFESSORS
So Says Harvard Dean In College Paper - Would Elevate Sports as 6 Whole and Encourage Students.

College athletic coaches should be professors, Dean [. B. E- Briggs, Of Harvard. declared at 9 recent meet ing of American university men in Paris, according to 9 communication to the Columbia, Alumni News from D. IIoratio :. Krans, director of the Columbia University Paris Bureau. Dean Briggs also said that all college students should take part in athletics instead of @ picked fe v, a view sup ported by a West Point colonel, who was among the speakers. Isr. I1rans says:
 As far as I can judge. Dean
 Briggs does not look for any rad
 icaI change in athletics, in post
 beIlunl days, except, perhaps, to
 conduct them in more economical
 fashion, one symptom of which is
 the plan being considered by Yale
 and Harvard of sharing training
 tables an;T headql1.. .-ters on the
 Thames during the training per
 iod in the next Yale-Rarvard
 race.
 For the rest, the dean expressed
 himself as being averse to the
 scouting system, and s1so to tho
 campaigns made by various col
 leges and prep schools to secure
 desirable athletes for college
 teams. He was decidedly not in
 favor Of the "sea sCrel'' coach. He
 expressed himself in favor Of a
 plan which would give colleges
 and universities q permanent
 coach. who should have a position
 of honor, and aNouE5. in fact, be
 a professor, with q voice like any other professor in the affairs of the college or university. The importance Of as coach as an in fluence upon the life and morale of the students was the deans chief reason for taking this stand. This talk on athletics interested everybody. and resulted in a lively Interchange of questions and an
 swers between the young officers who were dining at the union and the dean and the members or pro
 fessors of other universities who
 were present. A West Point col Onel who was the guest of the union that evening gave q little account of the ideas of West Point as regards athletics. He
 said that West Point en5eavored to do what, by the way, Dean Briggs had said he thought all colleges ought to do, to make it Q custom for all students to partici- pate regularly in athletics, not to confine athletic activities to a few
 picked and specially gifted sports men.

E DR THE benefit of a few persons II who insist on making a target of Barney Gerard, the popular snowman and sporting promoter, let it be un- ,derstood that Jack Dempsey, heavy weight championship contender, is under contract to receive $2,0O0 week ly, and $2,o0O nightly for his ser vices A Ettlo common sense would have easily brought out the absurdity of the statement Jack Kearns. Denp- Hey's rnanag ger, is alleged to have made.
 Barney Ia too shrcwd a snowman to g7larantee any performer or ring man that much per night Dempsey as receiving $2 900 weekly and at that he is not being underpaid. The jumps are all short and thore is no elaborate scenery or anything of the sort to be 1ugged abSbL So one can easily see that after all this venture is not as disastrous financially to Gerard as some folks would want the public to 7believe.
