Boston fans will not be without a chance to see some boxing.

Monday be ing a holiday a number are going to Gloucester to see the bout between Mike i Glover and Battling Downey, which takes Place in that city this afternoon, Boston visitors can return in time for the evening theatrical attractions. Glover 1 a good working welterweight, but he will probably be forced to the limit by Downey. The semifinal bout between Billy Burke and Battling Sylvia should also prove interesting. In the evening Joe Chick and 11. Briggs are; exnected to meet at the Gloucest.

It evident to McGraw that Tee reau was now through, and it behooved him to get a pitcher ready. Wood was pitching such grand ball that a two run lend at such a late stage of the game seemed too big a handicap to overcome. Taking this fact into con KiripratioTi McGraw refrained from using either Marquard or Msthewwn. l0 ne iii hvp to do before ii urii.a wss over.

But if Wijlcox comes through as expected he can do as well as Bingham or better. Against Yale freshmen last year he took a third in the 220 an easy first In the quarter in 49 ss, and earlier In the season had run the quarter at Exeter a full second faster. He Is considered the fastest quarter mUer in Harvard now, and the only question in his case is whether his running will not be adversely affected by baseball playing, for he Is trying now to pitch and to keep up his track work at the same time i A.

O. Phinney, '17, Harry Mlnot, '17, and T. R. Pennypacker, '16. are other men who will be used In the quarter.

Francis Capper has been the half milo star for Harvard for two years, but Bingham is almost as good, though he has run the distance only a little In college. Capper's lecord last year, all made in the 880, was a first against Cornell, a second against Yale and third in the intercollegiates. He has soldom run the mile, but Donovan has reason to believe that he can be trained successfully for the longer distance. Alex Biddle, '16, who Is now running the half and used to be in the quarter, will also be shifted to the mile by the present Ideas of the coach. J.

W. Feeney. '17, was the best of the half mllers In the first year class Inst Spring, but his best performance in the Yale meet was to run third In a slow Probation Troubles. For the mile and "two mile events Harvard will have a number of good men, but will surely miss Robert S. Boyd, the star two miier of the past few seasons.

The milers have been decreased in number by the graduation of Henry G. MacLure, '15, who finished his college courses last week and left the university. Seconding Capt Capper In the mile will be Biddle, Robert S. Cock, '17. and R.

H. Davidson, '17. The two mile men will be picked from those who ran on the cross country team last Fall, the best of whom are C. Southworth. '15: A.

R. Bancroft, '17: H. R. Bechtel, 17; C. J.

North, '17, and W. J. Hever, '17. Between them they should be able to pick up a few points, even in fast company, In the hurdles the prospects depend pretty much on W. A.

Meanix, '16, the former Colby athlete, who has often appeared in the colors of the A. A. At present he is ineligible through probation, with no immediate prospect of release, but he will have another chance at the April examinations. Without him the hurdles would be weak events for Harvard, with Jackson gone along with Freeman and Brackett and F. S.

Alien, '16, who got a third in the low hurdles against Cornell, as the only point winner left from last year. The freshmen had two fair hurdlers Stanley, who took a first In the low hurdles against Yale, and Mark Nohle, who was third in both the low and hi.h events. St John Smith, '15. who was kept from competition last Spring by Injuries, mav come through this year as a point winner. Thus in the track events Harvard will have one star for every event except the two mile if all goes well, but thl is putting: a reliance on Teschner and Meanix, the two Ineligibles.

which their present college standing would hardly seem to warrant. For the Field Events. For the field events, the Crimson will have two good men in the hlprh jump, one in the pole vault, one in the broad jump, a fair chance for points in the hammer throw, and mediocre prQspects for the shotput. The two high jumpers are J. Oliver Johnstone, '16, who has been excelling himself in the indoor meets, and J.

B. Camp, '15, who is better in outdoor competition. The second string men are Greeley, Haydock, Hodgson, Mahn and Tt.rrey. but they are all far behind the two leaders. Camp has done 12 feet 3 inches several times in pole vault competition, and is Harvard's one star in this event.

Last year he got a first against Yale and a tie for first in the intercollegiates. Greeley, Hall, Haydock. Rice and Richards are the men who are seconding him, but Greeley and Richards are the only ones who have shown consistent form in practice; they ought to be good for near 12 feet this Spring. Johnstone, like Camp, does double dutv. his events being the high jump nnd broad Jump; In the latter event his best mark is the 22 feet 10 inches, with which he won a first place from lale last year.

Meanix is a good broad jumper in addition to being a first class hurdler. In the hammer throw, the one good prospect Is H. L. Sturgis. 15, whose second place against Cornell last Spring represented a throw of just over 144ft, In the Yale meet and the intercollegiates Sturgis fouled and failed to score.

But the hammer is a very uncertain event, and this may be his year to score in the big games. E. R. Roberts, '16, has some promise as a second man for the hammer. In the shotput Harvard has not had creditable performer for several years, and the only candidate now In sight for honors is C.

K. Schall, '10, the biggest man on the varsity crew last year. This oarsman has been kept out of rowing this year by doctor's orders, but he is working at the shot and hammer, with an occasional fling at the sprints. Out of this unusual combination he may produce a few points for Harvard's score in the coming meets. Arthur T.

Lyman, '16, another of the oarsmen, is trying to do something with the shot, and as he has dropped rowing, his concentration onthe event may be productive of good results. The freshman team of last year had no field eyent men worth mentioning, and has contributed no material of note to the varsity recruits. This year it is open to maiden hunters I belonging to members of recognized I hunt clubs in the United States and Canada. The distance will be about 2Vfc i miles. I F.

Ambrose Clark will take a private car of horses for racing at various meet lings prior to a meeting at his own es Itute in New York, which will attract many other horses, and these will unquestionably be seen at Clyde Park, The program for the two days fol lows: JUNE 17.

The Grand Circuit tracks are beginning to announce their Spring closing events, and those already made public tell that, pronounced departures are being made. Track managers are awakening to the fact that the faster record horsea they have so long neglected In the matter of rich pure offerings are reaJly the ones that should be catered Detroit has changed its $10,000 M. M. to a 2.08 class and the $uOOO C.

of C. to a 2:07. Columbus gives word that the Hoster will be either for 2:07 or 2:08 trotters and that the Hartman will look after the 2:05 pacers. Cleveland, which has never considered a $10,000 purse on its program for the best Interests of all concerned, becomes even more conservative, its card for the Summer containing nothing higher than fcW Detroit disappoints many of tne big line followers by going back to the point system of racing. This seems to be the most unaatisiaciory wuiiiiei ui racing yet introduced, and they surely have handed up some awiui sysieiuH ill i the last decade.

The point system at Detroit at twice recalls the M. M. won by Spanish Queen. Alceste won the fourth and fifth beats racing the Queen into the ground, but the money went to the trotter that more than 10,000 spectators knew was not the better racer that day, for the two final heats had seen her fairly out raced. The racing at Detroit will be under the rules of the American Association with the exception that in case of a tie at the end of the fifth heat first money will be awarded to the horse whose winning heats average the faster.

Cleveland's Program. Cleveland will give two purses for 3 year old trotters and one for trotters that have never won ft heat in a race faster than This last named event is in line with what the Grand Circuit intends to do entirely in its early closers next year, put up the bars against the horses that get records in a race. The win race rule was adopted to aid the horse that became outclassed by virtue of scratching in a fast heat in a losing race. A horse of stake caliber can protect any record obtained, and with the big money for faster classes the fear of records is bound to fade away. The Ohio Stake on the Cleveland program, which ts worth $3000, will be for trotters instead of for two tenners as last vear; the "Tavern Steak" will be worth instead of $50w as last season, and will be for trotters that never have beaten in a race.

This means that Linda Wrona, Peter Scott, Lee Axworthy, Lucile J. Malcolm Forbes and some of the other bears with fast records that are still oiitMhie tn thf 2:14 rlass under the rules, will hp harred from this race. It also moans that the Tavern event will be a race practically for green horses and one of the few that will be given this season where as much as is offered the competitors. The Ed wards Stake for pacers remains unchanged from lust year. The bars have been lifted on the Fasig Stake, and instead of that event being limited to trotters eligible to the 2:12 and.

slower classes, it will he open to all year olds, there will be SiOO added by the assocm tIThe North Randall has been. qhanged frorn'a stake tor trotters to eep stakes for 3 year old trotters eligible to the 2:18 class. The association will add $bi to this event also. The race for 2 year ids will be a sweepstakes open to all and will he limited to two heats. This will be contested as if two distinct events and a efiual sum divided in each heat in tne regular iW, 25, 15 and 10 percent manner.

i i rr The Montreal Plant. Th Antiolntment of Hurry Shepard, the man who put Columbus on the racing map. to manage the rnnd Ui meeting at Montreal is twldence that the Canadian member is going to be. one of the strong links in the chain. All doubts as to Montreal being in line are now removed, and with Hartford almost certain to retain its membership the Kastern end of the Grand Circuit looks better than for years.

The Hors Review has the following to say of Montreal and its plant: The Dorval Jockey Club, which will eive the Grand Circuit meeting at Mon i treal, is an organisation which, while I VOliHg. haS Wltllill ft tCW I "HOBEY" BAKER TO BE HERE SATURDAY Hockey Star Coming to Play Against Dartmouth.

A A St Nicliolna Hockey Club. Creent Iriah Amertran Hockey followers are anticipating an enjoyable, week at the Arena, for the sport starts in this afternoon with a match between two crack school teams. Melrose and Arlington, and ends on Saturday evening with "Hobey" Baker and fellow members of St Nicholas against Dartmouth with "Bags" ana maker. Sprinkled In will be the Arena New Haven game tonight, the match between B. A.

A. and Hochelaga on Wednesday evening and on Friday night the Melrose Medford contest'. Baker, it will be remembered, had hard work to pull Princeton through against Dartmouth a year ago, Donahue, the Green's goal man, being the means of holding the gume to a one point advantage. This will doubtless be the great skater's final appearance of the Winter in Boston, and the. Arena should be packed.

Baker does not win games all by himself here as easily as on other surfaces, but Just to see him skate is worth while. Hockey has not his equal as a producer of thrills. The intercity match this evening should be exciting. New Haven has been strengthened by securing the services of Irving Small, one of the best players New England has turned out. The rena seven has also been helped by getting Irving's brother' Norman to hold down the net position.

This has been the weak spot on the "Red and White" ream, and the younger Small, will bolster it up mightily. This Is the fourth game between New Haven and Arena, and with only one win to their credit the Elm City men will turn every trick to even the series up. The Hochelaga seven, which comes here to play B. A. is counted one of the real strong amateur teams of the North country, and is now the ranking member of the Montreal League.

CORNELL FORciD TO SHARE THE TOP BERTH The games played in the Intercollegiate Basket Bait League series the past week were productive of surprises.

A. A. indoor meet at Madison Square Garden in New York, on March 6, where the best of the Harvard teams and individuals will compete against the entries from a number of Eastern and Middle West colleges. Almost Immediately thereafter the outdoor training will begin, for the Penn relay games, coming in April, will require considerable early preparation If the Crimson entrants are to make a creditable performance. Then, at short intervals, came the dual meets with Cornell and Yale, and the intercollegiate meet at the end of May.

Coach Donovan has had good success with his two varsity relays during the Winter and hopes that the good showing of the middle distance men is an augury of victory for the Spring. Coach Powers, in the field events, has had fewer men entered In the Winter meets, but he has a lot of youngsters in training at the baseball cafre, and is try. ing to develop some new talent by means of weekly competitions. Harvard had anything but a successful senson last Spring, losing to Cornell and Yale by one sided scores, and finishing only in seventh place in the inter collegiates. Yale needs to win only one more meet to have permanent possession of the trophv cup now in competition, having already four meets to her credit, as against Harvard's two.

Lost by Graduation. The situation is one that may well cause some worry to Capt Frank Capper, but yet there are elements In it that may work out to the development of a really good track team. Harv has not taken an intercollegiate championship since 1909, and much needs a revival of interest in track sports. By graduation the Crimson lost four good performers, W. A.

Barron, a splendid sprinter, who scored lt points alone against Yale and won a second place in the Intercollegiate quarter: J. C. Rock, who scored third In the quarter against Yale; R. S. Boyd, who finished in front in the Yale two mile, and A.

L. Jackson, the hurdler, whose last year in college vvas much less productive of points on the track than his two preceding seasons, due to an Injury received in practice. Against Yale last year Harvarl scored but 37 points, of which nearly, half were made by the four men who have graduated; of the 11 points that gave Harvard a seventh place in the intercollegiate meet, Barron made four. It is apparent then that if Harvard is be formidable in the dual meets against Cornell and Yale and the intercollegiate competitions, the veterans of the team must perform better than they have ever done before, and the new men must also come fully up to expectations. It cannot be said that the prospects are good, but the team ought to be capable of something better than the poor record that was made last year.

Hangs Upon One Man, In the sprints the situation hangs almost wholly on one man, E. A. Tesch ner, '17, who has been on probation all Winter, but is pretty certain to be relieved when the results of the receni mid year examinations are all in. In any case, he will have another chanc at the hour examinations in April, which will be over before the competitive season Teschner had a reputation as a track star at. Exeter, and as captain of last year's freshman team he turned in two performances against the Yale freshmen at New Haven that rank him with the best in the colleges.

Though his team lost by a one sided store, Teschner personally won 10 points with a first in the 100 yard dash in JO seconds flat, repeating in the 220 in 21 2 5s, If he can do as well for the varsity he will rank with the high scorers in almost any sort of competition. R. W. Stanley, '17. was third to Teschner in the short dash, and Westmore Willcox, '17, was third in the 220.

Stanley has been considered a very promising man for development, but he is now hopelessly on probation and will probably be out for the season, even if he succeeds in staying in college Of the varsity men who ran the sprints last season, J. Ti. Foley, '15, third place man in the 220 against Yale, is the only point winner left in college, but the coach has great hopes of B. 'A.
