The world's Hy-weight title chang- ed hands again after one of the poorest contests ever witnessed in Paris. Frankie Genaro, the chal- lenger and previous champion, won back his crown on a foul in the fifth round from the clever French boxer Emil ("Spider") Pladner, the holder, who was led weeping bitter y from the ring. The French boxer began the fight in an obviously ner vous state, and seemed scarcely jable to follow the rapid movements of his opponent. This phase lasted only a minute, and in the second half of the opening round ha re- covered.

H.-Warriner, who, like his predecessor, Richard Beesly, as a First Trinity man and rowed in the winning Olympic Light Four.

There is, however, very definite unwritten rule that no secretary shall pass up to the higher office if he did not take part in the inter-Varsity contest, except; of course, in the case of illness.

DIRT TRACK RACING, The Auto-Cycle Union announces that it is prepared to organize a Cycle Track Racing, as it is con vinced that such a competition will be in the best interests of the sport. Any of the Union's licensed tracks may nominate their local champion for this contest, and the method of selection by each track of its repre- sentative is left for each track to decide. Provided at least 16 tracks enter for the championship before July 1, the draw for the first round will take place during the first week in July, and the competition" will be so organized that the final round of the championship will be held be- fore the end of September. The championship will be governed by regulations and certain supple nientary regulations which will be issued shortly.
