College Boxing
Bouts Opposed
At Columbia
Local Instructor Fears That
''Ringcrs'' Could Be Used
by Coaches i'm Matches

The proposal to introduce boxing as
an intercollegiate major sport does not
meet with approval at Columbia, ac-
cofding to statements made last night
by officers of the department of physi-
cal education at the Morningside uni
vcrslty. The opposition Of Columbia
IN this respect was dated by these men
TO tour years ago, when university Off
GERS quashed an invitation from Penn
sylvania to hold dual meet with tho
Blue and White.
One of the pioneers in college box
ing, Gerald Wecman, who has been
teaching the sport to Columbia under.
graduates for the last nine years, camo
out fatly against Intercollegiate con.
tests. He has been teaching boxing for
twenty years, first at the Boston Y. M
Z. A. and later at the East Side Y. M
Z. A. In his youth he boxed as an
amateur, and then as a professional
although most of his appearances were
in amateur bouts.
The worst effect of making boxing an
intercollegiate sport, in his opinion
would be the tendency for coaches to
engage ringers" for their teams. With
an "out-to-win" policy prevailing, col
lege coaches would be tempted to per-
suade amateur boxers to enter their
particular school. Coaches would be
Judged by the success of their teams
Weeman pointed out, and would there
fore be likely to secure ready-made
boxers from local club rather than
attempt to develop man in his four
years at college.
Weeman is also opposed to intercol-
legiate boxing because it would expose
the contestants to disfgurements.
Boxing between colleges would have
to be handled very carefully, under
close and expert supervision. The
judges would have to be able to tell
precisely when a man is nearly out, and
then the bout should be stopped. Box
ing is a manly, vigorous sport and
am heartily in favor Of it, but it must
be closely controlled--as to the men
who take part and the manner in which
1T is conducted"
Weeman was responsible for intro
ducing boxing as part Of the physical
education requirements for Columbia
freshmen and sophomores this year.
In all, each student has four weeks of
boxing in the college year, which
amounts to twelve lessons. The in
struction is continued in the second
year and becomes more technical.

Foremost Skaters
OFT Continents
To Race Upstate

An international ice skating race
meet, in which the fastest skaters of
northern Europe will compete against
the leading United States and Canadian
speed stars, is being planned for the
winter of 1921. Details of the meet
will be worked out at conference to
be held at Lake Placid, N. Y, next
Wednesday, when skaters from all
parts of the country will be present
for the international championships of
the present season.
Races at various distances will be
scheduled for both amateur and pro-
fessionals, the latter TO skate for the
largest purses ever offered in this de-
partment of sport. The sum of $25, 900,
suggested as the basis of these purses,
may be increased to nearly twice that
amount, and it is hoped to have among
the professional competitors such men
as Bobby Mclean, Oscar Mathieson
Norval Baptie, Edmund Lamy and
others

To Join Local Club

ITHACA, Feb. 14.-The Cornell base
ball squad will be called out for the
opening of indoor practice early next
week. John P. Henry, former Wash
ington American League catcher, who
has been engaged as coach. is here max
ing plans for the beginning of the drill.

ters, who played second in 1917 before
the war broke up athletics; Howard,
who was chosen shortstop for the same
team; Ellsworth, outfielder and catcher
and the best hitter on the team last
year, and Cross, another hard hitting
outfelder.
Dawes, of football fame, is also q

experienced catchers.
Track practice will get away Mon
day The Ithacans are being groomcd
primarily for the triangular meet with
Harvard and Dartmouth at Boston on

the Olympic team this week, will leave
soon for New York city, where he will
take up his residence Dresser, it is ex-
pected, will join an athletic club there

Faulty Memories
In Newberry Trial
Keep Lawyers Busy
Court Admonishes One Re.
luctant Witness; Others
Unable to Recall Their
Grand Jury Testimony

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Feb. a.
Sharp exchanges between lawyers and
witnesses marked to-day's session Of
the Newberry elections trial. With
grand jury members on the stand, lead
ers of the defense fenced swiftly to
show faulty memories or incomplete
records of what defendants had said
to the inquisitorial body last Novem-
Der. Unwilling witnesses forced the
government attorney also to thrust
and parry tactics, the fight going so
by w. II. Richter, of Grand Rapids, a
sergeant-at-arms in the Legislature,
Judge Sessions said:
II think that this witness may be
investigated and a report made"
Martin w. Lttleton, of the defense,
jumped to his feet and took exception
to the courts remark. He was assured
at once that it was made with no inten-
tion of rejecting upc: any defendant
in the case, Judge Sessions adding:
"The court must protect itself on
such witnesses"
Cannot Recall Previous Testimony
Richter refused to testify on direct
examination that George Welsh, Grand
Rapids member of the state House of
Representatives, promised him his job
at the state Capitol in return for sup
port of the Newberry candidacy. He
could not remember that he had so
sworn before the grand jury OR had
related the same alleged fact in a
signed statement.
sci, had difficulty getting the last wit
ness, Byron A. Barber, Petosky drug
gist, to swear that Charles A. Floyd
told him that Will S. Darling, Harbor
Springs defendant, "would be taken
care Of" Finally he admitted making
such statement.
The grand jury testimony consumed
two-thirds of the proceedings. It was
given by Claire R. Higbee, clerk Of the
jury, and George L. Jordan, who have
testified before.
The cross-examination Of Jordan
took a course intimating that he had
been given time between his appear
ances on the stand to refresh HIS
memory on testimony given by defend
ants and then rushed to the witness
chair to repeat what he had learned
from notes taken by Fl. Dale Souter,
an assistant government attorney.
Judge Sessions interrupted and said
that Gin fairness to all" he would
reverse previous ruling on such testi-
mony and allow the defense to see
these notes.
Higbee testified that ]. Clyde Watt,
prosecutor of Iona County, told the
grand jurors that he and his assistant,
r. A. Colwell, both defendants, re-
ceivcd 5000 from the Newberry com
mittee, spending $3.50 and keeping the
remainder. He also testified that j. B.
Burns, Of Three Rivers, kept $500 OF
the $400 given to him and on the di-
rection of James R. Davis, Newberry
field agent, reported to the committee
only 500.

bravo!
The News scImitar baseball team,
think OF it-has actually won a ball
game!
Sunday morning at Loeb. field The
News Scimitar team took the CONNER
cial Appeal team into camp in a seven
inning contest to the tune OF 10 to l.
And this despite the fact that the Com
mercial ballers had the aid and as
slstance Of "Bubber" Camferdam, chlet
baller Of the Press team. and Thlrd
Baseman Lucas, of Associated Amateur
fame. Also in the face of an um -pira-
tical decision which permitted Camier-
day to score a home run in the tlrSt
inning on a foul ball.
VIII wonders never cease?
A feature OF the game was the per
Torrance of Nagel as pitcher for The
News Scimitar team, who famed ten
of the Commercial batteTs in the seven
innings. Another feature of the game
was the inability of the Commercial
batters to hit to right field where BABE
Ruth" Rainey, Of strike fame, was
stationed, and where News Scimitar
eral home runs would develop for the
opposing team.
The News Scimitar players, while say
ing that at last the team has got GO
ing, also believe that Sundays victory
was due mostly to the fact that the
link of the aggregation, City Editor
barrow, has been ditched. Darrow
stayed at home, even refusing to come
out as score-keeper or rooter and the
