MAXW1SI.L fcporl Kdllnr livening IMihlle 1,ntrr CopvrioM, 1PJ0, tv PiibUo Lodger Co. TVX RICKARD, premier pugilistic promoter, departed or Texas last night, and stated emphatically before leaving New'Tork that he was not at all Interested iu the proposed Carpentlcr-Dempsey heavyweight bout and probably ti'Altli) IfftAn Mil nnnrta nff In Ihn fitltipo Tliln itdi unlltarf ImIm Viv .Tlnimtf I'M Klouehertv. nf T.plnprvlllo. hn hplnrd Illekard sajs this million-dollar conversation has left American promo ters out In the cold," explained Dougherty, "and unless Kearns and Dempsey get down to earth and listen to reasonable offers he m HI stick to his oil busi ness. Those offers of .$."00,000 urc all out of proportion and there isn't a chance in the world to stage an expensive show like that in this country Tor that reason, Tex says, he is laying off and will remain on the outside looking in. "That AVillard-Dempscy affair evidently cured Illekard. There was the biggest boxing match ever held and everybody believed it would draw a million -dollar gate. It was given more publicity than the Johnstown Flood, unusual interest ns aroukod, nnd what happened? Few people know this, but the receipts were $1, -100,000 loss thnn the promoters expected. The arena at Toledo was built to accommodate (14,000 persons, and the crowd was about 20,000. A capacity crowd would hate meant a gale of $1,800,000. Instead, just a trifle more than .? 100,000 was counted up, and Richard's share was n small one. "Therefore, the American promoters will not fall over thcnisehes trjlng to outbid the Kuropcans. It would be. a sucker move to hang up n big purse for the battle, because you couldn't take in that much money. It seems strange, but million-dollar houses can't be drawn in this country. I wouldn't be sur prised to see the bout staged in Fraucc or Kngland, and Rlckaid has the same idea." Rickard has promoted the biggest fistic encounters here for the last thir teen years. Ho started with the Gans-Nelson. followed with Johnson 'Jeffries, came back with Wllard-Moran and ended with Dcmpsey and Willard. Every bout was a big success, big purses were hung up and Tex made money, But in a case like this, where Kearns is asking a modefct $500,000 for Dempscy's Rcrvic.es and Carncutier has not yet made known the amount he desires for hi? services, Rickard knows the only yilfjg n promoter can do is lose money, m N A short time sbmc real offer teift be made and we all wilt be icon dcring who started that fSQOftOO stuff. Hoio Will They Do It? "T7IOR some reason or other the boys ure getting all hct up over the coming J? twenty-round battle between Ilenny Leonard and Johnny Dundee in New Haven, Conn., on January 10. It is billed as a championship battle, with a decision and evcrj thing, but from where. , wo are sitting the fuss is nothing to get excited about. Dundee can give .Leonard all he is lookiug for In a six toand bout, but after "that ft is only a question of time before, be hits the canvas. He always was in bad shape at the end of those eight-round affairs in Jersey, antfit's hard to figure hoiv he can stick around for twenty sessions. As Nick Hays remarked the other night when be paused to take a fresh hold en, the hammer: "How can those guys put in the time? Twenty rounds i means one hour, and -unless somebody, slnjs.a song or puts on a movie the, act j& likely to fall flat." Rut Mr. Haya might be wrong. Leonard might win by 1 a knockout. Frank Mornn has been invited to go to 'England nnd don the mitts with Joe HecVett, the exploded phenom. The Englishmen still ore wondering how Carpcnticr scored that seventy-four-second knockout and aro anxious to sec Beckett in action again before putting him on the shelf. In Moran .Too would meet a very tough, 'hard-hitting, nervy battler, 'and probably would have some rough sledding. Moran, by the way, is on the job again nnd meeting all comers in his "come-back" act. Next Monday night he mingles with a Sergeant Jack Burke, who was knocked stiff in forty-nine seconds out West n week ngo. Frank will try to do the job in less time. Anyway, Francis Charles is a very popular fighter and always does his best. Al Reich, another bcavjwelght who is trying to turn over a new leaf, will 'meet Tom Cowlcr in Jersey City on December 20, Al was resurrected 'and knocked out Al Roberts iu a couple of rounds a short time ago, and immediately became a candidate for heavyweight honors. He is about as gocd as Cowler and the bout should be interesting as long as it lasts. Let's hope both men are not on the floor at the same time. . .. . ' llfflLH these matches are being held Fred Fulton, the ferocious VY plasterer, is thinking seriously of paying his back dues and going tack to the union. lie can make more money at his trade than in the boxing ring, lie seems to have been gtven the absent treatment. No Worry for Chicago Rookies FRED MITCHELL, manager ot the Chicago Cubs, has sprung something new. In order to make things pleasant for the rookies on the training trip, he selected his ball club, made the names public and the new men can spend a pleasant acation in Pasadena .without worrying about making the team. The 1020 line-up of Mitchell's club is as follows: Right field, Date Robertson: center field. Max Flaek; left field, Turner Rarbcr; third base, Charley Deal; shortstop, Charley Hollocber; second base, Ruck Herzogj fin,t base, Fred Merkle; catchers, Killefcr, O'Farrell and Dalct; pitchers, Alex ander, Vaughn, Tyler, Hcndrix, Martin, Bailey, Ncwkirk and Turner; utility wen, Lear, Friberg and McCabe. Perhaps Mitchell announced this line-up after looking over the liht of new placers for next year. 1'cw bush league stars have been mentioned of late. Thp American League scrap is taking up all of the space in the newspapers. It isn't hard to pick up news about one's baseball club if ono reads out-of-town papers. Here is what we discovered in the San Francisco Chronicle: ''Another football star is to be given a chance at the national pastime. This time it is Charles Darling, University of Minnesota football star. Darling will report to tho Philadelphia Nationals. He played baseball with the marines in France and is said to be a bright baseball prospect. Maybe, but football stars seldom make baseball stars of the first water." rBE Washington baseball club has decided to giva up Augusta, Ga as a training camp and this year tcill go to Tampa, Fla. This teas done because the Senators have hooked up with Cincinnati in a spring series and will tour the South together. The teams are supposed to meet in Jacksonville on March 29, but an effort will be madeta play three games in Cuba before that date. The lied Sox gave up Tampa this year to train at Hot Springs. Now Ban's Charged With Conspiracy CHARLES H. TUTTLfl, attorney for the New York Tnnkees, now churges Ban Johnson with conspiracy. The American Leaguo president has been accused of everything elfc so that another little charge doesn't mean any more to him than the price of golf balls. This new charge claims that Ban '- tried to oust the "Rebels," consisting of Harry Fraree, Colonel Ruppcrt and Charles Comiskey, from the league. Tuttle and Marvin W. Wayne, Johnson's local nttorney, met in one of their legal wrestling matches before Justice Vernon M. Davis. Tuttle argued In favor of an order for the appointment of nn open commission to go to Cleveland, Ohio, and examine James Dunn, Walter McNichoIs nnd E. S. Barnard, president, secretary and business mauager, respectively, of the Cleveland club. Tuttle wants to ask them abouj the stock that Ban John son owns in the club. Wynne's argument was that there is no rcasan for the Creation of such a commission. In attempting to prove that Johnson tried to put his clients out of base ball, Tuttle read extracts from letters alleged to have been written by Johnson. From one, it was learned. Tuttle asserted, that Johnson was attempting to oust the Yankees from New York by obtaining a lease on tho Polo Grounds from tho Giants nnd thereby put the New York American League club out of a playing field. In defense of the charge that Ban was one of the big owners of tho Cleveland club, Wayne stated that the stock in Johnson's possession merely was collateral for a loan made to the Cleveland club at the time of its re organization In 1015. He said that the loan was made to help the Cleveland club get on its feet again. ' TjsASEBALti is getting io be a all-year-round sport. Athletes play D it on the diamond in summer and magnates and attorneys play it in the courts in winter.

Tho possibility is thoroughly inside, stuff, having been slipped to us virtually as he was stepping on today's flyers for New York, by Samuel J. Dallas, president of tho United States Amateur Athletic Union. He was on his way to attend an informal meeting of the American 01)mpic committee in Gothamvillc, scheduled for this aft ernoon. "There was no mention of golf on tho program tho Belgians submittted to us for the 11)20 Olympics," said Mr. Dal las, "but golf is one of tho thiugs I am going to bring up at the meeting todaj . I am goiug to suggest that this country equcst that golf be one of the intcrational events in the next Olympics. "Tennis is on the schedule nnd there is no reason why golf should not figure also. If the committee takes to this idea, the matter will probably be brought before the U. S. G. A. at Its anuunl meeting January 0, with n view of pajing the expenses of the team, as will be done, I understand, in the case of the tenuis players by the II. S. Ij. T. A." Expenses Important Mr. Dallas went on that be thought tho expense part ot it was highly essen tial, in view of tho fact that a thor oughly representative tcum of golfers could thus be sent over. Naturally, Mr. Dallas bad not gono so far as to pick n team or to decide whether amateurs, pros, and women placrs would nil be sent. "The first thing is to suggest the event " he said, "nnd if it is acceptable to the Belgian committee we can then go ahead with the details. I am going to bring tho matter up today. We sent golfers ocr for tho Interallied meet last July at Pershing stadium, and there is no reason why another equally successful tournament should not be, held. It would decide the world's chnmpionship, something that has never been played for in the history of golf, I believe." In ca-e the idea goes through, it Is likely that the play will be nt La ISoulie, outside of Paris at Versailles, lather than in Belgium. Golf does not flourish very much in Belgium, which is very likely tho reason it has been overlooked for the Olympics. There are not many courses there. The only one we saw was in the woods READING SWAMPS TRENTON PASSERS Tome and Newman's Refusal to Pay Fines Weakens Jerseymen's Play Eastern League Standing . . w I.

Trenton's basket ball stars looked like novices in their Eabtern League contest with the re constructed Heading flvo lUBt night and were defeated by a scoro of 31 to Iff. The scoro docu not show how clearly the locals were outclassed. Trenton did not score a field goal until twenty-five minutes of tho contest had been ployed. There was a delay of n full half hour in starting tho game, due to a dispute over tho payment of tho finea inflicted on Tome nnd Newman by President Kcheft"er because the meu played In the I'eunsylvnnla- Slate League. Both Tome and Newman refused to pay their fines and likewise refused to alloy Manager Handler to odvanrn tho mnnvr.

But that was about all, as the links itself looked like a toy. There are courses all over Trance, however, not ns rigid, most of thoui, ns in this country or England, but still good enough to fight out a championship. Players on this side of the water arc unusually eager to invade foreign climes this next season, there being already much gossip about the pros going over, and it is supposed to be authentic thnt Miss Stirling, tho fem injne champion, will tako n flier nt the English women's chnmpionship, Quakers In on It Any team of amateurs picked would surely include nt least four Philadel phians, ns in nearly all of the mythical "first ten of American golfers" lists we have seen, from four to five Philn delphians have been mentioned.

Delegates from this city to tho United States Golf Association meet ing, January 0, have not been entirely chosen.

At that Whitemarsh nearly won the bet because of its popularity. This year, duo to Improvements being put into that course, which havo upset nearly every bole, it is doubtful whether tho club will again bid. But the open is duo here, and4 fans are impatient to see nil the greatest players of tho country iu action here, a sight seldom seen in Philadelphia. When the amateur was held at Morion, uno of the largest galleries that ever saw a golf match turned out for tno finals. Golfers are unanimous that it would be a great thing for Philadelphia golf to have the open here, but naturally the first thing is for some club to decide to make a bid for it.

A report of the athletic finances for the year ending last September 1 was given out through the University Coun cil on Athletics. It bIiows thnt Pcnn actually made a profit of over $11, 000 from football in the fall of 1018, despite the influenza epidemic which caused tho authorities to closo Franklin Field for tho entire month of October, resulting iu tho cancellation of football games during thnt period, and despito other drawbacks which made tho 1018 gridiron Bcason nwny below tho mark financially. During the academic year of 1018-10, sports were conducted nt a loss of more than $33,000, but it is believed that this deficit has been wiped out by the great returns of the 1010 football sea, son, the most successful financial one in the history of the University. No official report was. given out on the season just closed, but it is be lieved that the profits will be in si figures. Football's $14,000 profit in 1018 was wiped out by losses in virtually every other sport. Basketball and boicing alone earned money. The fixed $20,000 charges on mort gages, rentals und sinking funds, and upkeep of Franklin Field, also con tributed to make a deficit. Tho net loss on sports from Sept. 1, 1018, to tho same date this year was approximately $33,000. Basketball earned a profit of moro than $1200 last season, mainly because of the fine record of the Pcnn five. Box ing turned In nearly $50 on the right side of tho ledger. Otherwiso the va rious sports were maintained with losses. Rowing resulted in a dead loss of ap proximate! $7200 and track, $1830. Baseball cost about $1200 more than came in at the gate.
