DOG SHOW-HORSE BOXING---ATHLETICS
All College Sports Are
on the Road to RuinQtiOn
So Says Prof r. TAFT Mckenzie of University of Penn
sylvania, Who Blames Over Enthusiastic Alumni
for Commercializing and Endangering Them.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 31.-College sports
In this country are headed toward
ruin through too keen competition
for supremacy. r. TAFT Mckenzie, pro-
fessor of sculpture and physical director
of the University Of Pennsylvania, de-
clared In an address to-day before one
of the university classes.
Athletic activity Is the best substi-
tute for war. and every virile nation
must have ono or the other" DR.. Nc
Kenzie said, but the encroachments
Of commercialization have endangered
intercollegiate athletics. At this time
overenthusiastic alumni of Institution
after institution are competing for the
services of coaches to turn out winning
teams at salaries that surpass the sal
airy of the college president This is
especially true in the West.
Their memory does not go back q few
years TO the time when the ranlSness
OF the abuses they arc thus fostering
caused the total abolition of intercol-
legiate contests in moro than one promi-
nent college and menaced the very ex-
istence of football as u college game.
They do not remember that the game
was saved only with difficulty by the
National Collegiate Athletic Association
through a drastic reform in its cond uct
and rules. At present more than one
college president, himself a lover of
clean sport, is looking toward THU,
goal.
There are many hands," DR.. Nc
Kenzie declared. trying to wiring the
neck Of the goose that laid the golden
egg. and If tho undoubted benefits to the
college are to be saved from strangula-
ton by commercialism 1t can only be
by keeping in mind three things:
First, the employment Of the great
income Of these spectacles for equip
ment Of fields and gymnasia for the
stud ents and for the giving Of skilled
instruction and the necessary medical
supervision OF these great educational
agencies.
Second, by linking these games and
contests more closely with our social
life and making 1t a part OF 1t in
way which cannot be done 50 long as
the athlete is considered as a man
apart from his fellows.
Third. by studying our sports with
the eye Of the artist. Every great art
had interpreted its own time in term,
OF that time and no art can depict
our time without giving large place
to its athletics

MOHARDT TO HELP
COACH N. Y.U. TEAM
Notre Dame Football Star Not
Involved in Scandal Com
ing Here.
BY DANIEL.

1t practically has been settled that
Johnny Mohardt, one of tho very few
Notre Dame football stars who did not
take part in the now famous Taylorville-
Carlinville affair, will come TO New
York University next fall to coach the
backs and act as general assistant to
Tom Thorp. the new head coach. It
was announced some time ago that Mo-
hardt was to enter the Harvard Law
Sci ool. but Mohardt Is not going to
Harvard, nor Is he going to study law.
He will enter medical college in this
city.
Eddie Anderson. the All-America end.
who has confessed that he was one of
the Notre Dame men I'm the bush league
hattie. apparently has tossed away a
coaching job at Columbia. Anderson
was slated to come to South Field to
help Buck" O'Neill coach the ends and
assist In developing the forward passine
game and other details. However now
that Anderson has disqualified himself
at Notre Dame. there seems to be little
chance that Columbia will welcome him.
According to Joseph Byrne, Notre
Dame alumnus who represents Il In
athletic negotiations In the East. the
wholesale disqualifications have wrecked
sport at Notre Dame for the year. Tho
basketball and track teams have been
broken UP and the baseball squad has
been hit hard. The only outstanding
figures remaining on the track and field
team are Gus Desch. the olympic 400
metro hurdle champion, and Johnny
Murphy. the national high jump title
holder.
Desch and Murphy were scheduled 90
arrive here last evening on the Lake
Shcre Limited. Knute Rockne. the foot
ball coach, also was expected on that
train. However, he telegraphed that ne
had abandoned the trip. Desch and
Murphy are expected this morning as
they are to compete in the Mlllrose
genes tonight. the Boston A. A. meet
OIL Saturday night and the big meet In
Newark on Monday night.

sociation held It's meeting recently and
named June 26 as the date for It's re-
satta it also took up the eligibility rule
and made quite change. Tho stewards

students was passed aomc year ago. ana
II was plain that IL was aimed directly
at syracuse, with which tho New York

Now that the rule has been changed
Syracuse should benefit greatly. as its

long stay In Florida. will hold his fret

that while Notre Dame had almost con-
elusive evidence that professionalism
was making serious inroads into our

DEMPSEY BRENNAN
MATCH IS NOT MADE
Rickard Has Not as Yet Sub
mitted Any Offer for Such
a Contest.
BY CHARLES r. MATHIsoN.

Jack Dempsey gets a new match
nearly every day and he probably would
rot feel at ease unless he was scheduled
to fight some boxer in tho near future.
Following the effort to match him with
Harry Wills there was a 1ull on the part
of the unofficial matchmakers. but yes
terday they rallied and hooked up the
champion with Bill Brennan for a con-
test in the Garden March II.
The articles. according to the yarn.
were to have been signed yesterday
| afternoon. But no signing was done
and when Tex Rickard. Secretary Coul-
try and Ike Dorgan were asked In turn
why. the papers were not autographed
they all expressed profound ignorance
as to the proposed match.
Rickard said he had not even dis
cussed the matter OF match witt,
Kearns let alone coming to an agree
! ment. 1t is said that Leo p. Flynn.
manager OF Brennan, Is so eager for
tho match that he became convinced 1t
lad been consummated IT does not
follow that the pair will not be matched
at some time In the future, but 1t has
not as yet been done.
MuIdoon Trowns on Match.
While the Boxing Commission did not
take any action OF Importance yesterday
at its regular Tuesday meeting, Chair
man Muldoon expressed disapproval Of
the proposal to match Dempsey and
Brennan.
Mr.. Muldoon was Of the opinion that
Brennan Is no match for the champion
and that patrons should not be asked
to pay to see a one-sided contest.
The commission has taken no official
l v.A Istlru uvsfl
has made no move to bring about n
match the commission will not be called
on to pass on 1t.
The Garden has pugflistfc program
ahead of It that should cause patrons
OF boxing to sit up and take notice.
Johnny Dundee and Joe Benjamin Will
mix 1t next Friday night for the junior
lightweight title. On the following Fri
day night, February 10. Benny Leonard
viii defend the worlds lightweight
championship against Rocky Kansas the
ruggedest man in the class. Then on
February II Jack Britton, worlds welter
champion, will try to retain his honors
against tho attack of Dave Shade, the
most formidable contender for the title.
With two worlds titles to be risked
end one American championship at stake
in three weeks time the fans will have
much to interest them.
Benjamin and Dundee will end train
ing to-day. They will weigh in at 1876
pounds at 2 o'clock Friday. Both re-
port themselves in fine fettle for the
fray.
Benjamin made a name for himself
several weeks ago when he defeated
Pete Hartley. He showed considerable
class and punching ability on that oc-
casion, so much so that Richard signed
| him for several bouts.
| Dundee is also great attraction In
the Garden. where he boxed Willie
Jackson fifteen round draw and won
the 1870 pound championship by winning
on a foul from George CLANCY.
Jack Kearns, manager of Dempsey.
also looks after Benjamins affairs and
| will be In his corner.
| Italian Joe Cans. the Brooklyn mid
dleweight, will box Andy (Kid) Palmer
| from Tulsa, Okla. The opener will bring
| together Pete Latzo Of Wilkesbarre, Pa,
and Jack Palmer of Philadelphia.
