English Boxer
Nearly Dropped
In Sixth Round
Philadelphia Boy Puts Up
Came But Futile Battle
Against Flyweight Champ

PHILADELPHIA, March g. Jimmy
Wilde, the British fyweight champion,
outfought and outpointed Patsy Wal
lace, of Philadelphia, in a fast six
round bout here tonight. Wallace
fought hard battle against the cham
pion, and almost scored knockdown in
the last round
The first and sixth rounds were even.
while the British boxer easily led in
the intervening four rounds. Wilde
felt out the Philadelphia boxer in the
first round, but in the second the Brit
ish titleholder opened his attack with
mixture of snappy left hooks and
jabs and straight lefts. He had Wal
lace's nose bleeding freely. Wallace
fought back punch for punch.
In the next three rounds Wilde
demonstrated that he was the better
boxer. Wallace appeared to have more
power in his punches, but did not land
as frequently as his opponent. At the
end of the fifth round Wildes mouth
was bleeding.
The sixth round found both fighters
eager to mix it up. The Philadelphia
boy made wonderful rally. In the
middle of the round he crossed q right
hook on Wilde's left cheek bone. Wilde
fell forward and came down on his
finger tips, but was up instantly. The
big crowd cheered and franticaIly
yelled for the Philadelphian to land
knockout, but the British champion
came back with a fusillade Of rights
and lefts.
Wallace weighed III. Wilde's weight
was not announced

Nickalls Takes
Charge of Yale's
Big Grew Squad
From, q Special Correspondcne

From Special CORRESPONDENT
NEW HAVEN, Conn, March S-Guy
Nickalls, the English coach who de-
veloped the Yale winning crews Of 1914
and 1915 and the losers Of 1916, to-day
resumed direction Of the Blue rowing
squad. Arriving in New York City
yesterday and meeting the graduate
rowing committee at the University
Club In that city last night, Nickalls
reached here early this afternoon and
Immediately went to the gymnasium
and took charge Of the oarsmen.
More than 200 candidates, the largest
winter training squad in Yale's his
tory, have reported and have been
drilled for two weeks on the rowing
machines by George Van Santvoord, a
former English oarsman, who was as
sistant to Coach Mather Abbott, who
resigned last November to become
head master at Lawrenceville Academy.
AS Abbott, Van Santvoord and Nickalls
are all former Oxford oarsmen, the
Yale stroke taught this season by three
coaches is identically the same. Van
Santvoord, who is on the Yale faculty.
Will remain as assistant to Nickalls.
This evening Nickalls met the un-
dergraduate officials, including Captain
Churchill Peters, in the "Y" Club, and
went in detail over the situation. He
said that he was delighted to be back
in Yale, but declined to make an ex-
tended statement
When Yale suspended athletics in
l9l7, Nlckalls returned to England and,
although tifty-four years old, entered
the British army as an engineer. Be-
cause of an arm partially crippled by
a fracture he had twice been refused
admission to the army before 1917.

Courtney Blames
Cornell Faculty
For Weak Crews

ITHACA, N. Y, March 8.-Bitter
criticism Of the faculty for lack Of CO.
operation, which, he declared, has de-
prived him Of the services Of the entire
starboard side of his varsity crew, was
made to-day by Charles E. Courtney,
Cornell's veteran rowing coach.
As result Of the mid-year exami-
nations, he said, one side of the first
eight had been eliminated from row.
ing this season. Courtney stated that
the faculty failed to inform him Of the
scholastic standing Of his important
candidates, as has been the custom for
many years.
The "old man" said that he would
rather buck the best crew in the coun-
try than buck the Cornell faculty, be-
cause he would receive q squarer deal" !"
With only about two months before
Cornell's first race, Courtney Is now
confronted with the task Of building
up almost an entirely new crew.

From a Special correspondemt


JACKSONVILLE, Fla, March g.
The Dodgers went through two more
hard workouts at Barr's Field to-day.
In the early practice session the ath-
letes INDUCED in long batting and
fielding drill, and in the afternoon,
after going through warmingup
process, Manager Robinson ordered an
other contest to be played between
the "Konetchys" and the "Johnstons."
The game lasted six innings and was
won by Johnston's team. The score was
II to 9 and total Of twenty light
base hits were tapped out during the
fray. Fifteen of the blows were re-
corded by the losing side, who also
made two Of the three errors recorded.
Al Mamaux pitched the first three
rounds for the Johnstons and was re-
placed by Robert Vines, tall right
handler. Harry Heitman pitched the
and in his last inning the Johnstons
pounced on his curveless Offering for
nine runs. Leon Cadore pitched the
last two frames and allowed two hits,
but was not scored on.
Paul Reyers, one of Uncle Robbe's
husky rookie backstops, performed
we'll behind the plate for the Konetchys
and came through with three hits.
One of his safe blows was two
bagger. Taylor, another young catcher,
also made a two-bagger for Koney's
side. Johnston, Baird, Miller and
Hood each made doubles, and their
swatting helped the Johnstons to their
second victory of the series.
Pitcher sherrod Smith reported to
Manager Robinson this afternoon, but
he did not join in the workout. Jeff
