SPORTING NOTES

Lieut.. Spencer Barlow of Water town, Conn.,, recently of Camp Taylor, Ky, has been appointed to take charge of athletics at Connecticut College at Storrs Monday.
 Jack Dempsey. heavyweight title contender, has filed suit for divorce, charging his wife with fnhdeHty.
 Dempsey disappeared after filing the divorce action.
 Benny Leonard's next battle will be with Spider Roche, of the coast. They will meet in q 4-round bout to a deci- sion in Sacramento otmorrow night. Leonard is in the best of condition and declares he will win all his battles on his tour in easy fashion. Roche has boxed most of the op-notchers, but in the champions hands he should be a baby.
 The boxing game has been struck another hard blow by Fred FuIton's confession that his bout with Jack Dempsey at Harrison, \. J., was a frameup. Little credence would be given Fultons statement were it not for the fact that he is the second man to accuse the Salt Lake heavyweight of "doube- crossing" an opponent. Battling Levinsky took the first knockout of his career from Dempsey after being promised that the bout would go six rounds. Levinsky made q public confession, and neither Demp- sey nor his manager refuted it. Amer ica does not want such champions. When a man has to lure an opponent into the ring out of condition, and then knock him out by breaking his word, boxing will be dragged into the mire. and such men are menace to the sport.
 Johnny Dundee is now handling and arranging his own bouts. He has matched himself to meet Johnny Noye in Pittsburgh oil Feb. 24, and claims that Milwaukee wants to see him in action with Ritchie Mitchell: Boston with Jackson, and has several other good offers he is now considering. Good luck to you, Johnny.
 Harvard appears to have the edge on the other colleges in hockey. The seven that is representing the Grim son on the outdoor rinks around Bos- ton is up to the pre-war standard. Harvard's skaters have taken part in four games this winter and have never been extended to win. Last Saturday they took the Boston Hockey club team without an effort by a score of 3 to 0. Next Saturday evening in the Brooklyn Ice Palace, the Harvard seven will face the most important game of it's season, when it lines up against Yale. Harvard is expected tC win this match handily, as the Ellis have nothing like the smooth Working combinations that is led by Captain Gross.
 Yale's defeat of Pennsylvania al basketball several nights ago in New Haven has created unusual interest ir the sport there. The QuakeTs rompet off with the championship last sea son and came to New Haven with { team of veterans that appeared for, midable enough to wipe the Ellis of l the map. Now the Ellis are off to { start, which furnishes fair evidence O
 a good season.
