THE RIGHT REFEREE

The selection oi Georges Carpentier

to l'eiel‘ee the Moran-Johnson as-

sault-at-ai’nis has a decidedly pecu-
liar lUth‘L (in the lace oi. things Car.
pt‘llllt'l' appears to be totally unlined
tor this. very important position.

Aside from the advertising to be de-
riveu Ii'Oill his connection with the.
tight. no poorer selection could have
been made than this 20-yenr~old boy.

'l‘hat the wily black shotiid be will-
ing to place his title at the mercy of
this excitable. inexperienced youth:-
ster is most surprising. Always John-
son has been a stickler when it comes
to naming the third man in the ring.
That he should be so easily satisfied
this time can only mean one of two
things, Either he is absolutely cer—
tain that the fight will be so one-
sided that a child could judge it. or
he has some good reason. not apparent
on the surface. for believing that he
will receive none the worst of it.

Then, too, a fighter seldom makes a .

good referee. 'So far the. exceptions
to the rule have been decidedly
scarce. Jeffries was the. most prom-
inent to attempt the role, but .let‘i's
weird ruliirgs met with so little in-
vor that ho wisely retired from the
field. Young Corbett and, Terry \ic
Govern. licensed to act in New York.
never distinguished themselves to any
extent. to say the least, and there are
many other noted glovemen who have
met with no better success.
Undoubtedly Johnson is familiar
with these facts. which makes his do

cision appear all the more strange,

Yet that there should be any colitis-
ion between tlie young French idol

and theb lack champion seems hardly _

probable. 'Probabiy it will be found
at the last moment that Carpentier
has merely lent his name for adver-
tising purposes and that another has
been selected to act.

OOOKHORII OAPTIIRE8
BROOKLYN HAHOIOAP

NEW YORK, June 24.~'l‘he twenty-
sixth running of the Brooklyn Handi-
cap, at one mile and a quarter was
transterred to the Queens County
Jockey Club's‘track at Aqueduct. L.
i., yesterday. and the event, which is
one of thevclassics of the American
turf, was won by the iiveyear-oid bay
horse Buckhorn, carrying 113 pounds
and piloted by Jockey McCalioy.

The winner, which is Whitney bred
by Broomstick out of Thirty-third, is
owned by ’the wealthy Canadian turi’

.patron, R. J. MncKenzie, and trained
by J. l). Adkins.

C'. H. Robbins' 'Buskin, winner of
the Metropolitan handicap a month
ago, finished second, beaten by a
nose; and half a length away. Book

third. four lengths in front of 111?.

IIO OLEAR OLRIAIAIIT

TO BASEBALL TITLE

As a result of the defeat of Yale

by Princeton, yesterday alteration. at
New Yorii, the intercollegiate year of
1911 is left without a clear claimant to
the baseball championship title. The
games of the big three, Yale, liar—
vard. Princeton, resulted in a com
plete standoff, each Winning one se
ties and ending with an equal num-
ber 01' victories and deteats. liar-
vni‘d won its only game with Prince.-
ion. .4 to l, defeating item. the lie-
ro oi yesterday's game, but lost the
Yale series, 1-6; N-13. Yale won
the Harvard series only to fall down

1-1),
1-0,

before Princeton, making but tour
runs in three games against 22
against Harvard. Princeton's es-

cutcheon is blotted by the defeat by
Harvard. The following is the result
between the three colleges:

1W 1. RC.
Yale ................... 3 3 .500
liarvard ................ 2 2 '.500
Princeton .............. 2 2 .500

Furthermore. all three were beaten
many times during the season, Holy
Cross twice defeating 'Harvard. yet
falling below Yale; Brown defeating
Yale twice, but losing twice to liar-
vard, and splitting even with Prince-
ton; while Pennsylvania‘ broke even
with Harvard and won the series from
Yale and Princeton. As (‘ornell de‘
tented Yale, 9 t6 2, won the Prince-
ton serlos, and also the Pennsylvania
series, it would seem as if the ltha‘
cans were entitled to the title about
as clearly as ony Eastern college.

Following is the summary of runs
scored by Yale, Harvard and Prince
ton in their Inter-series games:

Yale, 26; opponents. 20 tsix games).

Harvard, 201‘ppponents, 23 (four
games).

Princeton,

Cornell’s nine has completed a suc-.

cesstul season. The team deieatod
Princeton two games. won two out of
three from Pennsylvania. and :bent
Yale, Columbia and Tufts. The team
broke even with Georgetown and Vlr.
ginia, and were it not for two defeats
by the University of Michigan and one
by Colgate in the latter part of the
season, the team would have a high
bid for the mythical “championship”

honors. As it is, it will be diilicult to
figure out the loading teams 0! the

season in order of merit.
