NEW YORK, April 28 Mayor Mitrhel and Police Commissioner Arthur Woods were among the several thousand Interested spectators tonight at the special series of intercity boxing bouts at the New York A. C. The contests brought together champions In various classes from Boston, Pittsburg and Philadelphia and the best of local talent.

Especial Interest was manifested by the principal guests in the outcome of the feature bout, whkh called out William Spengler. the Metropolitan heavyweight title holder, and James McDonald of Boston, the New England champion. The prize at issue between these men was a trip to the Manama Pacific Exposition at the expense of the New York A. C. The local boy stripped at 165 pounds, while McDonald tipped the beam at 185.

The first round was a hummer and found McDonald essaying a right-arm swing, which Spengler cleverly stepped Inside of, responding with short rights to the body In a manner which shook up the Boston man and made him hang on. The judges found for Spengler. Harry Brown of Boston beat Charlie Shons of Pittsburg In the 150-pound division. These men are the champions in their class, and the Judges had hard work deciding between them. Other bouts resulted as follows: 108-Pound Special Won by Wattle Herbert, Union Settlement A.

New York, from D. Thomas, Philadelphia; three tounds; judges decision. 133-Pound Special Won by R. Gleason, New York, from Buckley, Boston; three rounds; judges' decision. 110-Pound Novice, Final Won by A.

Berkowitz, New West Side A. from George Heigle, St Josephs Lyceum; one round; referees decision. 130-Pound Special Won by Alley Nack, Union Settlement A. from Dick Jorio, Greek-American A. four rounds; judges decision.

Harvards varsity crew, which won over Annapolis Saturday, was given the day off from rowing yesterday; but Coach Wray took his second eight to pieces, and in the new order only three of the former nine retained their places, Capt E.

W. Soucy at No. 5, R. R. Brown at stroke and A.

A. Cameron as coxswain. When the shifts had been made the order was: Stroke, Brown; 7, Meyer; 6, H. S. Middendorf; 5.

Soucy; 4. Culbert; 3, Talcott; 2, Busk; bow, Whitmarsh; cox, Cameron. Meyer was formerly in this crew, but has been out a few weeks on account of Illness. Culbert was brought up from the sophomore eight and Whitmarsh from the junior crew. The men displaced are W.

Richardson at No. 7 and W. S. Ely at No. 6.

In the new order the boat moved well, but it will probably take a few days of experimenting before a settled order is adopted. The second varsity has an important race the latter part of May in the American Henley at Philadelphia. An interesting suggestion about the starting of important races relation to the length, of shells, suen close finishes as the Harvard-Yale Varsity race last June developed and the freshman races at New London in 11X11 and 1905, is made in a letter to the Crimson from R. H. H.

Jr, 01, understood to be R. Heber Howe Jr a former Harvard oarsman, now coach of the Middlesex School crews. He writes: With last years boat races still in mind, and with the memory of other contests that have been won by narrow margins, a point has occurred to me, as I supose to others, that perhaps has not been brought to the notice of the officials. It has always been the custom to start boat races with the sterns of the crafts even. The accurate anchoring of scows and the holding of the sterns by experienced men has invariably been arranged with considerable forethought.

At the finish line the first bow to cross indicates the winner. Now I do not know what the actual lengths of the two shells used by Harvard and Yale were last year, nor the length of the shells in the freshman races in 1901 and 1905, but that eights vary in lengths from 62 to 65 feet according to the ideas of the builders, is a well known fact. This equation, if we are to make the results as accurate as possible, should be taken into account, and there are many easy ways in which the difficulty could be solved. Possibly it will be argued that the crew rowing in a short shell accepted the chances of defeat by inches as counterbalanced by the belief that the model of their boat is worth the difference in speed. Dormitory rowing at Harvard will start this afternoon, when candidates for the Gore, Standish and Smith Halls crews will be started on the river from the old boathouse.

The first four freshmen class crews are to be kept intact, and will continue to row from the Newell boathouse; none of the men on these crew-s will be eligible for the dormitory boats.

If after smoking one package you are not delighted with Camels, return the other nine packager and we will refund -yoar dollar and postage. This afternoon English High, Boston College High, Commerce and Boston Latin crews will report. Changes are probable in the English High and Boston College first and second crews.

There was a change in the Browne Niohols School first crew, which reported yesterday to Coach Arthur Stevens at Gerrys Landing. Johnson, who' was rowing stroke, gave up his seat to devote more time to studies, and Brackett, who was rowing at No. 2, replaced him. Aldrich, who started out at bow, wa replaced on the second trip by Savage. Patterson was In the coxswain seat, instead of Adamowski.

Browne Nichols will race Cambridge Latin next Saturday, and it is possible that a brush will be held tomorrow with Roxbury Latin or Noble Greenough. Coach Jim Smith of the Stone School eight has shifted Donald Sands, who was at bow, and Lake, who was at No. 3. Warriner, whose finger was injured two weeks ago, has not rejoined the crew yet and will have trouble now The Boston Interscholastlc Rowing Association regatta dates will be announced tomorrow afternoon, when the annual meeting will be held at the B. A.

A. The majority of the schools favor May 24-26, but Brookline High and Huntington School prefer May 19-21. Brookline High, Cambridge Latin, Kindge Technical and Huntington Schools candidates reported to Coach Patrick Manning yesterday for practice at the B. A. A.

boathouse, Cambridge. The water was as smooth as a millpond and a few time trials were held. There was a shakeup in the Brookline High first ciew, the third in as many weeks. Max Untersee, who was rowing at No. 3, went to the same seat in the second, Richardson replacing him in the first shelL Franz Niccolls, the old Cornell junior eight captain, coached Brookline High from the coxswains seat.

Pat Manning served as coxswain for the second crew and coached the boys. Huntington School had more changes yesterday. Odgen, regular stroke, has decided to give up rowing. Starbuck of the second was used at stroke in the first shell and Bell, who was rowing bow in the first, was shifted to No. 2 in the second, Ames replacing him in the first crew.

Cambridge Latin and Rindge Technical School crews had a longer workout than usual. There were no changes in either. Latin has clinched a race with Browne Nichols, to be rowed over the half-mile course next Saturday afternoon, starting at 3 oclock. YALE FRESHMEN SHUT OUT BY DEAN ACADEMY NEW HAVEN, April 26 The Yale Freshman nine sucered its second defeat today at the hands of Dean Academy, which shut the Yale youngsters out, 1 to 0.

The Roxbury Latin, Noble Greenough and Volkmann School oarsmen enjoyed one of their best afternoons on the river this Spring yesterday under Coach William Haines.

The Roxbury Latin first and second crew.s were praised by Coach Haines for their good werk yesterday, and the boys feel that they have a chance to finish well up in the regatta on May 29. The Noble Greenough second crew will race the Morris Hights High crew of Providence next Saturday on the Charles River. the terrific pace set by Princeton, Chicago and Yale, but Kent easily outclassed the rangey Granger. And the Dartmouth man has been running well all Winter. Elmer Smith, the former Boston High School of Commerce athlete, saved the day for Mercersberg in the preparatory' school championship relay in Philadelphia.

Bucksbaum of Exeter had at least six yards lead on Smith in picking up the relay, and it was not until the last turn that Smith went to the front. performance must have pleased the Penn men, for this classy school athlete is a Penn prospect. In fact he tried to enter last Fall, but needed further preparation in some studies and went to Mercersberg to get it. Lehighs victory in its relay race on Franklin Field Saturday has a Boston interest, for Mile Morrissey and Jimmy Burke of the B. A.

A. wore the Lehigh colors, Morrissey running second and Burke as anchor. It was up to Burke and he beat the nearest man five yards. Howard Berry, the Penn freshman who carried off the honors so handily In the pentathlon event of Penns relay carnival Saturday, is more than an all-around track and field man. Berry is a Philadelphia boy and a graduate of Muhlenberg Academy, whence he went to Penn as the greatest baseball and football player and greatest all-around athlete ever turned out by the academy.

He already looks the part. Berry, according to the information at hand, is 19 ears old, 5 feet 8Vi inches tall and weighs only 155 pounds" If developed carefully and not given too much competition, he ought to be a world beater. Rodney Tower of the Harvard one-mile team, ran a good race in his home town Saturday, even if the victory did go to Penn. Accounts at hand of the 220-yard match race between IV. R.

At a meeting of the directors of the Bay State A. A. yesterday, a committee comprising Pres George W. McNear and J. L.

Hamilton was appointed to arrange a conference with Mayor Curley and Commissioner Louis K. Rourke of the Public Works Department in an effort to improve the street conditions in this city. Members of the association have reported a number of stretches that are in bad shape, so much so that springs of cars are damaged and the occupants get a bad jolting when passing along. Some of the streets are through thoroughfares and are in constant use, so that the motorists have asked their officials to try to have something done to better them. The matter of a club run was taken up and it was decided to hold it either over the June 17 holiday or the Saturday following.

No definite place was selected, but if possible it will be at Rye Beach. H. the same as last year. There were 26 new members elected yesterday, which makes the total now 407. The directors expect to have 560 before June 1.

With Sam McVea and Joe Jeannette each eager to be classed as the leading colored heavyweight of the world, the fans can surmise what sort of a bout they will put up when they meet at the Atlas A. A.

tonight. Both of these boxers are sore that Johnson did not give them a chance to win the world's title and they know that the next best one they can ever hope to gain is the one they are going to box for here. It is a big incentive and besides there is keen rivalry between them. As a local referee, probably Young Donahue, will be the third man In the ring, both of the boxers feel that they will get a square deal. The men are in good shape for the event.

The three preliminaries promise to provide good sport. BELGIUM BROWN BESTS EAGAN. Dorchester Boy Refuses to Break, Trying to Save Himself. GLOUCESTER, April 26 Belgium Eddie Brown fooled the talent at the Lenox A. C.

tonight, literally beating Jeo Eagan of Dorchester to a standstill inside of three rounds. In the second round Joe lost his head and roughed it in the breaks, being repeatedly cautioned. In the third, to save himself, Joe hooked his arms around his op ponents body and refused to break. The referee then awarded the decision to Brown. Battling Peters of New Bedford won over Terry Martin of Lynn in a six-round contest, and in the preliminary, Buddy Regan of this city knocked out Young Shea of Rockport in the aecond round.

Cyclone Burns Gets the Award. PORTSMOUTH, April 26-Cyclone Burns was awarded the decision over Dixie Bob Allen tonight in what at one time was a rough house. The first fall was awarded to Allen. In the second Referee Dryden told the men to break as they were off the mat. When he tried to separate them blows were exchanged.

The second fall was given to Burns on the grounds of unfair tactics by Allen after the police had interfered. The final fall was won by Burns in 15m 20s by a half nelson and halfscissors. K. O. Brennan Laces Joe Chip.

BUFFALO, April 26 K. O. Brennan gave Joe Chip, brother of the middleweight title claimant, a lacing in 10 rounds here tonight Brennan had all the better of the first nine rounds. In the 10th, Chip fought with desperation and a couple of his swings landed on Brennans jaw, dazzing the local boxer. Ertle Defeats Solsburg.

MILWAUKEE, April 26 Johnny Ertle, St Paul bantamweight, defeated Johnny Solsburg, Brooklyn, in 10 rounds here tonight. About the Boxers.

The bout was between McAllister and Tom McMahir of Pittsburg. HARVARD WANTS MORE MEN FOR THE LACROSSE SQUAD Coach Warwick and Capt Nightingale are trying to get out more men for their Harvard lacrosse team, which made only a fair showing in the four games played last week on the Southern trip. In a letter to the college paper this morning the officials asked for more men, particularly from the football and soccer squads, which have just closed their Spring practice.

In particular the management needs more men for the freshman dormitory teams, for which an interdormitory series is planned. A training table for the varsitv team was started yesterday at the Varsity Club for 16 men. including Manager Jo- ton, T5; G. F. Beal.

W. Mer- riam 1t riam. To. Harold Janvrln of the Red Sox seems to have some trouble in keeping track of the number of men out. There was nothing the matter with that play In the third inning of yesterdays game, by which Wagner retired Strunk at first.

Heine slipped after making a great stop, but he got to his feet again like a flash and nailed Strunk, who is one of the fastest runners in the league. Charley Rice, the crack University of Maine sprinter, who comes from Uxbridge In this State, pulled a tendon In practice lasf week and the report is that he has broken down so badly that he will not be able to compete again this year. His many friends in Boston and vicinity will hope that the injury will prove to be less serious than has been reported. W. F.

Garcelon, former graduate treasurer Harvard athletics, combined pleasure with business In a trip to Washington last week. He took in the Harvard-Georgetown ball game and on Saturday was at the Penn relay carnival. Culling from some of his reminiscences of these events, I should say that the ball playing of Joyce of Georgetown, who comes from Lynn, and the hurdling of Bob Simpson of the University of Missouri made deep impressions on his mind. Billy knows a good hurdler when he sees one; he was one himself. Bostons two ball teams started the week on a 50-50 basis in games won and lost.

Make the ledger balance on the winning side next Saturday night, boys. Joe Connolly, Charley Schmidt. Red Smith and Herbert Moran look lonely as the only Boston regulars batting for .300. Get in the list, some of you Red Sox regulars. Following the custom inaugurated at the Intercollegiate indoor championships in New York last-month, the executive committee of the Intercollegiate A.
