To-day at Astor

The annual conclave of the Society
of Directors of Physical Education in
colleges throughout the United States

vention tomorrow, while the Athletic
Research Society is scheduled to CON
vene on Wednesday,
Many of the delegates who are to
attend the meetings tomorrow and
Wednesday will be guests at the di-
rectors' conference. The reports o
the various instructors are expected
to bring out forcibly the good effects
of mass training and the increased in
terest in all forms of indoor recrea-
ton as result of the war.
AS physical efficiency is a potent
factor in the advancement of q student
in the various colleges the directors are
sure to report big increase in all
classes.

This makes a total of five titleholders
on the card. In addition to the above
named contests, all of which are schcd-
uled for eight rounds each. there will
be six-round preliminary between
Barry Norton and Charley Depew or
the championship of Wall Street"
The program is particularly attrac-
tive to New York fight fans, for the
reason that Tunney. Rather and Reich
are all regarded as New Workers. Reich
is trying a "come back" and thus far
he has met with startling success, for
he scored two knockouts in as many
battles since he announced that he
would attempt to prime himself for
match with Jack Dempsey.
Gene Tunney, a product of New
Yo1k's old 9th Ward, has succeeded
Jack Goodman as the idol of the " est
Side fight fans. Tunney is a member
Of the Tough Club in Fourteenth Street

nimrods so delayed matters that the

postponed until next week. L meant,
therefore, that it was impossible to

the month and which came to close
yesterday
II. B. Knight, and George B. Cor
bett, chairman Of the shooting corn
mittee of the club, tied for the high
scratch prize. Each had total Of 81
out Of possible 100 targets Rather
than let the shoot hang over for an
other week the nimrods decided 10
toss for the prize. The luck favored
II. Is. Knight and he won the trophy.
The tournament and the Byronel cups
were the only ones that came 10 an
end yesterday. The former was taken
by II. Rehtz, a new gunner at the
Iravers Island traps this year who has
been doing great shooting throughout
the month. He won the trophy with
; legs. The Buermeyer cup. 80 bird"
scratch shoot, was won by L. D. Ander-
son.
The Byronel, President and Lyon
cups were all postponed until next
week, when there will be shoot-otfs to
find the winners. The same thing ap-
plies to the shoot for the high handi-
cap prize, which also ended IN q tia
yesterday.
The day was not particularly good.
As result only one straight string
of 25 targets was return. 1t was
made by H. B. Knight in the shoot for
the Byronel cup.
The club expects the largest shoot
