to

New Haven, Corn., Jan. 27. For the

first time since the dawn of inter

collegiate athletics Yale has begun the

season on the defensive in practically

all branches ,f sport. The most radl

cal symptom of the change in policy Is

noted in the limiting of the schedules in practically every kind of athletics

except baseball.

The dropping of West Point and

Syracuse in football deprives Yale of two of its strongest rivals on the gridIron. In hockey and basket ball the departure from the intercollegiate associations has changed the general at

titude of the players, and in rowing the decision that the crew shall row

assert that the present movement is only temporary, but that it seems

necessary to limit the schedules for

year or two till Yale is well on Its feet

New York, Jan .27. American sport

ing men appear to be deeply Interest- j ed In the twenty-round battle for the j .British featherweight championship ! battle between Jim Driscoll, title hold- ) . er. and Owen Moran at the National -LSpJlItJcgF- club tonight. The men have been bitter enemies since they boxed a four-round draw in London seven years ago. Although Driscoll subsequently won the Lord Lonsdale belt, Moran always disputed his right to the British title and frequently challenged

him to no purpose.

Driscoll Is 33 year old, a native of ' Cardiff, Wales. Moran is 28 years old and is a trifle shorter than Driscoll. He' never could be called a featherweight, according to . the American limit. He will be strong for Driscoll, however, as the English title Is governed by 126 j

pounds at 2 o clock In the afternoon. Driscoll hasn't done much fighting recently, but his skill, if he hasn't lost it, is expected to pull him through. The winner is sure to corne here in the spring for a twenty-round scrap with Champion Kllbane at Vernon, Cal., on July 4. as Promoter McCarey Is anxious to clinch such a match.

NAILED DOWN Kenosha. Wis., Jan. 27. The report

that Pal Moore and Charlie White were

to battle in Kenosha on Feb. 10 brought a prompt denial from Mayor Heard this morning. He declared that

no permit for a boxing show had been

o believe that any permit would be is

sued.

'I have heard nothing of the propor

to the fight game. The matter is not

worth any further consideration."

WOMEN OPPOSE SUFFRAGE BILL. The Logansport Woman's Suffrage Club held a meeting at the home of Mrs. J. E. Noland and passed resolutions condemning the Btatsenburg suffrage bill now before the state legislature. The ground for condemning the bill was that It provided for only partial suffrage for women. Mrs. Noand, who Is president of the Indiana Suffrage Association, was bitter In her attack on the Stotsenburg bill. She said she would give every minute of her time and all of ber energy to defeat the measure. The Logansport club arranged to send copies of their resolutions . to every suffrage organisation in the state.
