that the public was getting tired of
his unwillingness to risk his title, so
look on .lloran with the intention of
[hunting him down Intel and picking
a better box office attraction when
the insue could no longer be avoided.
But the wise ones were wrong. lin-
Ii‘ns a hitch occurs in the meantime.
Johnson and Frank Moran will climb
into the ring on June 27 and Park;

I whether he is as good a bettingprop-

needless to say, is not attracting one-

An examination of the records of

championship from ‘Jei‘fries at Bonn.

, cleverness and ability to deliver a
knockout punch.’ He has fought two
battles since that date. He made Jim

SHEDIIEI T0 LEAD
YALE TIIAIIK TEAM
\Y. M. ‘Shedden, 1015, of flirookline.
Mass. was elected captain of the Yale
track team for next year at the ban-
quet last night. He won his letter
last year. and did excellent work this
season, placing in the Princeton and
Harvard meets as well as in the inter-
collegiates. .
This year’s Yale track team has
betil the most successful of any in re-
Ient years. At the outset of the sea-
son the prospects were not particu3
larly encouraging. but through the
untiring and efficient eilorts of
Coaches Mack and Queal. a remark-
ably well balanced team was de-
veloped. This year Yale easily de-
feated Harvard and Princeton and.
for the first time since IBM, was con-
sidered as a possible winner of the
Illtercallegiates.
