'LONDON, Thursday.—Frank Moody won the English middleweight championship from Roland Todd last night at the Albert Hall, where the Prince of Wales was an interested spectator. The victory was gained on points over fifteen rounds. Moody completely outclassed the title-holder. Towards the end of the fight he landed blows almost at will, although he could not knock out Todd. Another good but short battle was between Teddy Baldock and Young Johnny Brown. The latter was knocked out in the third round after intense work by both boxers. The Hill-Lolosky battle was halted in the sixteenth round, Hill getting a draw

Romerio, the French welter, lost a decision on points to Mancini. Girls at Basketball. When in Philadelphia, the Springside School girls’ basketball team turned back The Shady Hill team by a score of 94 to 3. Miss Margaret Collier shot thirty-seven field goals for the winners, for a total of 70 points, four of the baskets counting only 1 point. Suit Won by Stallion Owner. M. N. E.

Stallion Owner. M. N. E. Ambatielis has won his suit in Paris courts for 31,010 fr., which he claimed was due from Baron Vladimir de Koeppen for the services of the stallion Zagreus. The prize agreed upon for seven mares of the Baron’s stable was 67,500 fr., of which only 30,490 fr. was paid. The Baron testified that three of his mares did not foal and that he was therefore entitled to a rebate. The Court thought otherwise and ordered him to pay the difference and costs. PARIS prov.

Football for Harrow. The Governors of Harrow School have unanimously agreed to sanction the preparation of a scheme for the playing of Rugby football at the School in the Michaelmas term. This decision follows a ballot among the boys of the English School, which resulted in a large vote in favor of the introduction of the Rugby game. The masters have also supported the proposal. Association will cease to be a school game at Harrow. Rugby is not unknown there and some of the boys have played it occasionally on the school grounds for some years. GAUBIN WINS AT FOILS

NEWS OF THE SQUARE CIRCLE The injury which Eddy Clark received to his right eye in his fight with Fidel LaBarba in New York for the world’s flyweight championship, when he lost on points, is more serious than was at first thought. Clark entered a nursing home in Glasgow, to return home, on medical advice, and underwent an operation on his eye. The retina had become loose, and fluid was gathering. The operation is reported to have been successful. Meanwhile, it is considered sentimental that Clark should be

SWISS SOCCER TEAM RULED OUT OF FRENCH CUP TESTS Upholding a protest lodged by the Cannes Association football team against Pollitz, a player of the Union Sportive Suisse eleven, the French Fédération has declared him ineligible to play in the Swiss team, thereby the latter must forfeit the game it won last week from the Cannes players. Pollitz was said to be living in Basel. All members of the Swiss team must live in France in order to play for the French Cup. The Fédération declared

GHENT, Thursday.—The Dewolf-Hellebaut team continued to lead in the six-day bicycle race at the end of the fiftieth hour. Putzeys and De Clercq were second and Standart and Maes third. A distance of 1,020 kilometers had been covered by the leaders. A few fast sprints have furnished mild excitement to the spectators but the race has been rather monotonous so far.

NEW YORK, Thursday.—The big bag of gold that provided the major inducement for amateur tennis stars to turn professional is now beginning to appear as an obstacle to the future of paid tennis. C. C. Pyle, first in the field of pro tennis promotion, was
Pyle, first in the field of pro tennis promotion, was only too happy to speak in terms of six and seven figures last year when he was proffering contracts to Suzanne Lenglen, Vincent Richards, Mary Browne, and the others in his troupe. Now he wants to reduce such lavish outlay. But his stars want an increase. Which is enough to cause Mr. Pyle to strike tennis from his list of professional athletic schools. Prospects in Europe. What will become of it? Pyle says that the American public that wanted to see Mlle. Lenglen and her racquet mates has done so
see Mlle. Lenglen and her racquet mates has done so and is not likely to pay again for that privilege — at least not the substantial sums originally paid. If that be true, it can scarcely be expected that the English and European publics will prove any richer as a field for exploiting professional tennis. Tennis enthusiasts in Europe are many, but there is reason to doubt whether they will go to the extent of depriving themselves of other things just to see a few tennis stars play exhibition matches. Moreover, Mlle. Lenglen, unquestionably the big drawing card of the
Moreover, Mlle. Lenglen, unquestionably the big drawing card of the present professional troupe, is a much more familiar figure in Europe than in the United States, and in past days she played with heart and soul. In view of all this, much conjecture is heard as to the future of professional tennis. Few pessimists go so far as to predict that it is doomed. But the consensus is that the enormous sums paid last year will seldom be paid again. The first interest having been exploited, tennis must come down to a more normal level, with players receiving a reasonable
to a more normal level, with players receiving a reasonable sum, in addition to prize money and possibly shares in gate receipts, as all other paid athletes do. Whether or not this will prove sufficiently tempting to cause amateur stars to drop their rank, or to induce present professionals to continue is a problem. Outcome awaited. An answer may be expected soon. Mlle. Lenglen is sailing on Saturday in the France for Europe. Howard Kinsey and Paul Féret will be among those accompanying her. Mr. Baldwin B. Baldwin, the Californian sportsman and son of the late "Lucky" Baldwin, the wealthy
sportsman and son of the late "Lucky" Baldwin, the wealthy promoter, is sailing at the same time. It is rumored that he intends to manage a world tour for the French star. Other bids are reported from various parts of the world. Mlle. Lenglen will probably accept one or more of these offers and by the end of the summer a better idea will be obtainable of professional tennis as a money-maker.

Dundee will testify to this, following the surprise party in San Francisco with Eddie Roberts. Fidel La Barba must have been surprised when he was knocked over on his back three times in the second round by an unknown Italian scrapper in Boston. Those who backed him against Mike McTigue recently must also step into line. Something happens to the “sure winner” with remarkable frequency.
