TOLEDO, O., June 11.-Appointment
of VIM. H. Recap, Of Philadelphia, as
referee of the heavyweight champion
ship contest between Jess Willard and
Jack Dempsey on July 4 was the prin-
cipal topic of discussion among SPORT
ing authorities today.
Jack Kearns, manager of Dempsey,
while expressing surprise that the APP
pointment had been made so quickly,
said he would abide by the decision Of
the army, navy and civilian board Of
boxing control if Recap was the unani-
nous selection. He said, however, he
would like to have been consulted be-
fore final decision was made.
"Rocap will be acceptable to me-in
fact, any competent man will be ac-
c~eptable," Kearns said. But I would
rather not make any definite statement
cdss the situation with Richard"
Approval of Tex Richards action In
requesting the army, navy and civilian
board of boxing control to select the
referee was voiced by sporting authori-
ties and others interested in the lnde-
pendence day match: All agreed that
Richard, promoter Of the contest, had
made a move to place boxing on a
higher plane than it ever enjoyed be-
The board is composed of the highest
type of American sportsmen, the list
including Admira Sims, representlng
the navy, and Maj.-Gen. Leonard Wood,
commander of the central department
of the army. Maj. Anthony ]: Drexel
Biddle, a staunch supporter OF boxing
and himself a former amateur cham
MON, is president Of the board.
Leaving the selection Of the third man
IN the ring to the board, 1t was pointed
ont, will avoid the usual wrangling and
pickering between managers and pro-
motors, which heretofore has preceded
virtually every championship fight.

then Just an old toothless tiger, with
the spirit Of combat still strong within
him, but without the means of execu-
ton. Had Jim's size been commensu-
rate with his fighting heart he would
have been a champion. Whenever he
crawled through the ropes the fistic fol-
lowers knew there was going to be a
fight, and a good fight while it lasted.
They will always remember around
New York how Jim took Carl Morris,
then touted as a championship possibil-
ity, and beat him to a geyser of gore in
Madison Square garden: how he later
met Jim Coffey at Brighton Beach at a
time when they thought they had the
Irish giant prepped for a big match
with Willard, and how Flynn pasted
Coffey until it looked as II he would
knock him out, only to have his own
seconds toss in a towel on the ground
that Flynn had broken his hands.
Flynn was pretty much astonished at
the moment, but afterward he merely
laughed at the incident. The Flynn
victory over Coffey that seemed i'm
pending when the towel came in would
have been a serious blow to promotorial
plans. And Flynn was never a spoil
sport. In addition to all that, he might
have done something to his hands II
he had kept on hurting them into
Coffey.

gymnasium, the two best athletes in
each school taking part in finals.
From the gymnasium the boys went
to the swimming pool where they had
their last lesson in swimming. The hest
part of the program came at $3.50 when
all were served lemonade and cake.
Thirty gallons of lemonade was made
and the boys were allowed to help
themselves. One hundred and seventy

Owing to the very rainy weather for

who signed the swimming cards did not
