WALIER CAMP
DAY PLANS
ARE ANNOUNCED

Simultaneous with the opening of
the football season this week on
every college gridiron in the coun-
try comes the announcement flom
the Walter Camp Memorial commit-
tee in New York that "Walter Camp
Day" is to be celebrated in every
section of the country. This signal
mark of respect to the memory of
the man who did so much to place
football on 'its present pedestal as
the outstanding American college
game is a part of the plan whereby
the colleges and universities of the
entire country are uniting to raise a
fund of "00.000 for the erection of
a national memorial at New Haven,
to the memory of the late Walter
Camp.

In scores of college communities
there‘are to be special Walter Camp
Day games. Some of those already
arranged. according to the schedule
made public today by the National
Collegiate Athletic association's spe-
cial committee, are:

October 18—New York university
vs. Tulane.

October ill—Harvard
mouth.

October Iii—Columbia vs. Cornell.
November z—New York City coi-
iege vs. Manhattan college.

 

vs. Dart-

November ll—Syracuse vs. Col-
gate.

November 20 — F 0 rd h a in v a.
Georgetown.

November zfi—Pl t ts b u r g h vs.
Penn State.

November 26—N e b r a s ka vs.
Washington.

Co of deference to the wishes of

athle c councils in various sections.
no one day has been set aside by
the committee for general observ-
ance. but each community has been
allowed to designate its own day for
the memorial. Likewise. the com-
mittee has left to the discretion of
each university athletic board the
manner of raising the contribution
to be made by that institution to
the memorial fund. In some cases
there has been a donation voted by
the athletic council; at other institu-
tions there will be a surtax placed
for tickets sold for the game to be
played on Waiter Camp Day. while
in other instances there will be a
general appeal for personal contri-
butions from students and alumni.
The same thing is true regarding the
contributions being raised among
public high schools and private
“prep" schools which are participat-
ing in the memonai.

“Our chief aim is to have the me-
morial to Walter Camp truly a na-
tional one. representative of every
college and univ-ersity and high
school in the nation. regardless of
size or of looation," lg the explana-
tion of E. K. Hall of Dartmouth.
chairman of the Football Rules
committeee. and chairman of the
special Walter Camp Memorial com-
mittee appointed by the National
Collegiate Athletic association to co-
operate with a committee of Yale
alumni in making the memorial an
accomplished fact. Half of the cost
of the memorial has been pledged
by Yale alumni. the balance to be
raised by all other institutions.

stellar temround tilt of the cl
outdoor program of the season .at
the Nutmeg stadium. tonight.

Ballerino is} of the rip-snorting
hip-hooray. ever during in type. of
lighter. while Lord fashions his fia-
ticuifs along the boxer lines. using
his head as much as his hands and
feet to win, and it's the two adverse
gtyles of the contestants that give

very indication of a thrilling aetto.
Ballerino. who is endeavoring to win
back 'the Junior lightweight laureis
the: were once his, will not be
taking any chances thb Lord and
will try his durndest to come out
of the clash the \‘.lctor Mike was
the victim of a raw decision in his
first appearance in the Elm City
several weeks ago when the referee
declared Georgia Day the winner
over him in a sensational battle.
Lord will be out to redeem himself
for his two setbacks at the hands of
Day and Red Chapman and is di-
peoted to uncork an excellent assort-
ment of fistic display. /

Tony Travers. who looked like one
of the most precious pugllistic nug-
gets in Connecticut in years. until
he ran afoul of Billy Murphy. who
stopped him in live rounds last win-
ter. swings back into action tonight.
His opponent will be the tough
Young Conley of New London. Trav-
ers will have to be at his very best
to win from Conley 9a the latter

FAMOUS BATTLES
FOR THE

HEAVYWEIGHT
TITLE

By the Associated Press

 

 

Placid Jess Willard wreated the
heavyweight crown from Jack John.
son at Havana. Cuba. July 4, 1916.
in the 26th round, the bout being
the longest decfslve heavyweight
championship affair.

The end of the long battle precipi-
tated a scene of wild excitement.
Only one person was calm ill the
mldet of the confusion. The eth-p-
tion was Willard.

The challenger was in a. receptive
mood throughout. He refused to
lead and let Johnson do the work.
Once when Johnson fell across the
ropes, Willard left him there, and in
the clinches the giant consistently
leaned on the ebony champion.
Not long before the hour for the
bout to start it was doubtful if there
would be a ring in which to scram<
ble. Carpenters building the tem-
porary arena went on strike in the
morning and although the differ-
ences were patched up and work re-
sumed, it was a question for a time
if the carpenters would vacate in
time for the boxers to take posses-
sion of the fighting ground.

Had the fight been held a day iat-
er, Johnson would have made a roc-
ord as the oldest champion. He
