Boxing Board Gives Champion
Till July 10 to Accept
or Decline.
ny CHARLES F. MATHIsoN.

The verbal declaration of Jack Kearns
to the effect that Champion Dempsey
would fight Harry Wills Is not satisfac-
tory to Chairman William Muldoon of
the Boxing Commission. In order to
meet the requirements of the boxing au-
thorities Dempsey must formally appear
before the commission cover the $2.5Ot
forfeit posted by Wills, and set a date
for the signing of articles of agreement.
The commission yesterday announced
that Dempsey would have till July 10 to
accept or decline the challenge issued
by Wills.
If he fails to'accept the challenge the
commission will declare Wills to be in
position to accept challenge from any
other heavyweight and Dempseys title
forfeited.
The commission also announced that
as no word had been received from
Johnny Wilson In reference to keeping
his contract to meet Harry Greb the
Bostonian's title was declared void and
Greb must defend the championship at
100 pounds against Dave Rosenberg.
In explaining the attitude of the COM
mission In reference to Dempsey Chair
man Muldoon said:
THE conversational acceptance of
Wills's challenge by Dempsey's dapper
manager does not appeal to this
commission. In fact. we do not in
tend to pay any attention to 1t at all.
| Our notification to Dempsey was
for formal acceptance or declination
of the challenge made by Wills. Un1
fortunately for the white race the negro
challenger has shown all the dignity
and courage attending the affair.
have little doubt that Dempsey will
fight any one. but under the guidance
-,
too anxious to have the match made
the great white champion. has been
placed In n false position before the
public
"As the case stands We insist on
Dempsey and Wills making a match.
That having been accomplished and the
articles of agreement signed. the Com
mission can then return the forfeits.
1t makes no difference to this Commits
sion how many battles the principals
fight previous to meeting each other in
the ring. That Is a question to be set
down In the articles of agreement. All
we require Is that Dempsey and Wills
make a match. and sign articles. 1t
Is also immaterial to this Commission
when or where the men fight or who
promotes the encounter. AS soon as
Dempsey accepts the challenge by COW
I ring Wills's forfeit and signing articles
of agreement this Commission will be
satisfied
| Regarding the question of mixed
matches. Mr.. Muldoon said that ques-
tion would be disposed of when articles
, of agreement were submitted for action
by the Commission.
He made 1t clear that inexpensive talk
! by managers or fighters would not
satisfy the Commission and that money
to cover deposits by challengers would
be the only convincing conversation.
! II was announced that Dundee and
Frush had come to terms and made a
match to settle the featherweight dis
pute.
II was reported that Greb did not
care to attempt to make $50 pounds for
a middleweight ntle bout. in which
event Rosenberg will be called upon to
meet the next challenger in line.

HUDSON CREWS ALL
OUT FOR PRACTICE
Navy Eight in Smashing
Trial Covers Three Miles
in IA NJ. 10 s.
peciar Dispatch to THE NEW York HnaALD

Special Dispatch to THE NEW York HERALD.
PouoHKEEPsIE. N. Y. June 23.-Inter-
ference by the ferries in the third mile
prevented the Navy from sma shfng all
practice records for the three mile course
OH the Hudson to-day. The middies. who
experienced a radical switch yesterday
which IVES thought to have gone to the
very vitals of the crew, came back in a
smashing trial this afternoon and COW
cred the full three miles in the unof-
fetal time of Ia minutes 10 seconds in
what appeared to be one Of the best eX
hibitions of rowing the Hudson has seen
this spring.
The Navy's fine spin was the more
surprising. and, indeed, mystifying, be-
cause the stroke was kept at a low beat
virtually all the way down the course.
The start was made at forty to the
minute clip. but 1t did not take long for
the middies to settle down to smooth
and easy thirty-one. Rowing at that
pace they swept past the mile and half
mark in 7 minutes 3 seconds, and were
clocked at the bridge marking the end Of
the two miles In minutes 20 seconds
There It was that the waves from the
steamboats, began to bother them. and
they had to fight their way through big
rollers through almost the whole Of the
last mile.
King retained the No. place In the
shell to which he was shifted yesterday.
The Navy authorities were reticent about
the change, but finally admitted that the
reason for its being made was that Lee,
the No. man, had been losing too much
weight since the crew began to row
three miles.
Cornell also had a trial over the
course. Fillius. the stroke oar of the
varsity eight, evidently took leaf out
OF the Navy's book. for he kept the
stroke toned down and did not try to
hit up the pace until the last few hun
dred yards. The trial was rowed after
the Navy crews had gone to their boat
house, but the Ithacans were closely
observed by Dick Glendon
Penn had a slashing half mile race
for its three varsity crews in the eve
ming practice and the varsity showed
It's mettle by outrowing the juniors and
coming up on even terms with the $50
pound combination, which had some
thing the better of 1t at the start. The
15Os will row in the No. 5 lane as origi-
nally drawn and the heavy eight will
have the No. 3 course, believed to be
slightly faster than the extreme out
side position.
Columbia padded over two miles Of
the course this evening, the varsity
keeping the beat down under 30 The
Blue and White flotilla turned at the
bridge and headed back home. The
varsity rowed smoothly and In fine
form.

Good Take of Senbass on wednesday

Capt. Bill Dorman. who has sailed the
about New York for many years, says
they had exceptional catch of seabass
aboard the Velocity on last Wednesday.
They over to the Jersey grounds and
anchored on a spot they had fished on Mon
day without success. The fish had come In
in the meantime. however. and the eleven
passengers aboard gathered In less than
301 of them. Mrs. Knuth, wife of the genial
captain of the Flying D., was aboard. and
Just TO keep her hand in. she landed eighteen
of the bass. These fish ran from pound
and half to two and half Very few
blackfish were caught on this trip.
The Seabass Have Come Back.
[" The seabass are on the Jersey grounds
again. and good catches havesbeen made for
the last few days. The fish were quite
plentiful again on Thursday. and there were
many OF the large humpback variety among
them. The schools OF bass come on to the
grounds. and In few days they are pretty
we'll caught up. and the incoming OF the next
schools must be awaited.
new run had made the grounds on
Thursday and many of them were boated.
This would make good bass fishing for
week. and by that time a second school
should be on the grounds. There seems every
likelihood of good bass fishing tomorrow.

First Accident of the Kind.

Never before in the forty years of
Harvard Yale rowing on the Thames
had an accident of that character been
seen. Only once before had crew been
swamped. A Yale eight went down that
way in a triangular race with Harvard
and Columbia here.
The varsity struggle was a race with
out a close finish--a race which to
critics left no doubt after the three milo
r,ost-an event in which there was no
titanic battle in the final strokes-but /;
was tense, pulse 1uickening contest
nevertheless.

a rather sloppy race. The water natur-
ally settled aft and the power was APP
piled forward This brought tremendous
strain on the middle Of the shell. which
was an English boat without sufficient
bracing.
rgSuddenly there came a squall from a
Tayine over to the Yale side of the river
and IL struck the Ellis amidships. The
shell began TO sink in the waist and rise
fore and aft. 1t had buckled.
-lOnlookers on both sides Of the river
began TO wonder what had happened to
the Eli boat. The cry went up that Yale
had swamped. The middle settled until
the sweep swingers were on line with
the water and then came the order from
the Yale coaching launch and the COM
mittee boat for the freshmen to leave
their sinking craft and jump overheard
Some of the Ellis had enough left to
stand up and dive into the Thames
Others, rather used up by the hard pull,
Just slid into the water and waited for
assistance from the powerboats which
rushed to their rescue. Some of the
oarsmen remembered to pull their
sweeps out of the locks. Others let their
blades 30 with the wreck.
The boat settled aft, then suddenly

trouble : he keel had been torn away,

Must w atch the
Modes of Paris

Real expression of Parts Is found in
the restaurant frock. And this is the
time Of year when designers over
there are bending the best of their ef-
forts to create dresses of such charac-
ter. Then. observes fashion writer
In the New York Times. while we In
America do not 60 in for the restaur-
ant frOck as such, still we have a dis
tinct predisposition to q dress Of this
type, and 1t is from those models for
Partisan restaurant life that we take
many Of the ideas which carry us into
more particularized American crea-
tions. The dresses, In fact, which are
being worn now In Paris are those 1t
behooves us to watch from this side Of
the Atlantic, If we wish to be any
where in touch with fashions as they
proceed along their varied ways.
But the restaurant dresses that are
new just now are the loveliest. 1t
seems, which have ever been made.
They are simpler even than the sim
plest Of daytime frocks, but they have
that distinction Of cut and line and
fabric which marks them for leaders
in their own generation. Most of the
draping has disappeared; uneven
hens, except those very much re-
