TY COBB AND HUGGINS ALSO IN FIELD FOR SOX PLAYER Detroit Boss Also Want6 to T ake Second Baseman Jimmy . , Dykes From Athletics in Trade—Rogers Hornshy Case Still Up in Air—Important Deals Expected Today. By DAVIS J. WALSH. ^^^^ntliCAGO, Dec. 11.—One of the probable development* of m the whispering chorus, annually Known a* the major ^B ® league baseball meetings, is the transfer of Eddie Col iB 11ns, front rank second baseman of the Chicago Whit* lB Sox to the Washington Senators, as manager and lead ing spirit. Another is the probability that John J. Evers, 1 the stormy petrel of baseball, will team with Frank Chance in the control of the White Sox. Evers is al most sure of the post as coach of the Sox. These are the only two probable developments of the day at the Congress hotel. At last reports, Chance, and the worthy Miller Huggins wore still in conference over the possibility that Eddie Collins might become a Yankee. <t~w v 4 Huggins was naturally susceptible to the lure of trlTI Collins' name, but the point was that the Sox desired pitcher* and Mr. Huggins had no mind to part with the same. Ty Cobb ilso entertained an idea that he would like to have Collins as a member of he Detroit Tigers. Cobb, however, had little to offer beyond outfielders, and the Sox are not in the market for this particular commodity. Cobb was alsu said to lie casting ' (o\'c tolls eyes upon Urban Shocker of the St. Louis Browns. Here again Cobb was handicapped by the fact that fie wished to talk in tin- terms 01 out fielders and the Browns had small ideas of entertaining any trades which would not deal with pitchers. The national board of arbitration, which wrangled all day yesterday over what may or may not he done about the AVilliams McCarthy presi dential controversy In the Pacific Cosat league, was to go back to its irons at 4 o'clock this afternoon. It Vtas believed there was a good pos sibility that a decision might he seached. • This little tempest is having an gffect elsewhere than in the minds »f the well-known gladiators for the position. The Salt Igike City club yvould like to sell Paul Strand, out fielder, to the Philadelphia Athletics, but they are unable to do so until {hey find nut who is going to be boss Jf the coast outfit. The deal might ■ ot be acceptable to the new presi Jent or the old one, as the case pnay be. « There are reports that Cobb wants Co take Second Baseman Jimmy pyk from the Athletics in a trade, but you can hear almost anything if you sit still long enough. The rumor this time says that the purchase of tiishop from Baltimore yesterday by {lie Athletics is one step of the deal |or Dykes. • Joe Boley. the Baltimore shortstop, Jihose sensational playing a year ago attracted great attention, has been flung gracefully into the market by the famed Jack Dunn, but he Is not having the slightest difficulty In fighting off the bidders. It was made known in a roundabout way that the JVhite Sox had been approached and filtered Boley for $100,000. Frank Chance, new manager of the Sox, is ilightly deaf, so no great harm was fone.

' IICAGO, Dec. 11— Strong, threatening basket bail teams ire being developed at most of the Big Ten conference schools this season, with prospects of another close battle for title honors. Re ports from confer ence universities show that material Is plentiful almost everywhere. Iowa, titleholder in 1922, with Wis consin, has its whole winning aggre gation back In competition. Chicago, Illinois. Wisconsin and Michigan are building 'quintets having a strength that will threaten the Hawkeyes, however. The Maroons, under Coach Nels Norgren. are already showing good form. Campbell Dickson, captain. Is about recovered from a football In jury and w.ll be in shape for play H forward. In company with Barns, another football man. At Illinois Coach J.

Coach Mather I* call ed upon to round Into shape an en tirely new quintet. He will have four football men on the squad—Klpke, Steger. Palmer and Hernsteln. Hag gerty, leading scorer of the men left on the squad, was headed by 20 other conference players last season. Coach Cook at Minnesota also has his problem. Scholastic demands are expected to keep Captain Harold Sev ereinson and Ray Eklund, regular forwards, out of the game.

New York, Dec. 11.—A match race or series of races between Epinard. the Krench champion 3 year-old, and Zev, the American champion, to be run next summer or early fall. Is vir tually assured as the result of a con ference today among Pierre Werth eimer. owner of Epinard; Harry K. Sinclair, owner of Zev, and Major August Belmont, chairman of the Jockey club. Whether th» race or series of race* will be run In this country or In France was not decided, and will not he. It was stated, until American and French public opinion has been sounded. I found Mr. Sinclair as desirous as I for a meeting between our thoroughbreds." stated the French man. "Although no contracts were Involved and the place and details of the match remain Indefinite, I can say with reasonable certainly that the two great horsea will meet before next October. Mr Sinclair, who departs tonight for Denver, agreed to leave Zev's case In the hands of Mr. Belmont, and there Is plenty of time between now and the 1924 racing season In which to arrange the place and con ditions of the competition. "Natumlly I am anxious to have the rar» run in France, and there was an equally natural d"sire on the part of Mr. Sinclair that It should tie run In this country, but so de lighted are we at the prospects of the match that we decided the public should tie given opportunity to ex press Itself, ami if the American de mand for the race proved greeter than that of my countrymen, I will ship my home here " It Is thought possible that In the event a race Is arranged In this country, the International challenge cup. won by Zev last fall In his mem orable match with Papyrus, English derby winner, will lie offered fer a Zev Eptnard match. M, Wertheimer has expressed him self as willing to enter his colt against any number of American or British horses and there Is the fur ther possibility that Papyrus or the British derby winner of next year may he Included In a race for the International cup.

EXE Melady. it is reported, has I concluded that his pursuit of happiness Is no longer contin | gent upon the pugilistic achievements j of Big Munn, the former Nebraska j footliell pla>er, whose career in the squared circle to (late has been brief j but turbulent. In more simple lan guage. Melady, ’tls sair, has given Mr. Munn the air. According to reports, the news that the mastodonlc Munn was about to seek fame and fortune via the padded glove route reached the ears of two Omaha men at the same time—Jtfck Lewis and Gene Melady. Gene got to Sioux City firsl, much to the dis appointment of Jack Lewis, who now Is not so disappointed. Melady and Munn qntered Into an agreement whereby Melady would pay Munn a regular monthly salary of something like $225 a month while the 260-pountler was being groomed for his ring career. Munn entered into the enterprise enthusiastically and eventually reached the stage where Melady thought It would be all right to send him out against a "soft one." Jack Clifford, a second rater who once was knocked out in a coupie of rounds by Andy Schmader, was se lected as the victim. In spite of the fact that be was giving away 60 or 70 pounds of weight Clifford battered Munn around the ting like so much sawdust and then knocked him out in the second spasm. The receipts at this bout were around $2,000 and as his share Munn was to receive in the neighborhood of $700 or $800. But Munn had an agreement whereby out of his first ring earrings he would repay Melady for the monthly salary. Malady's monthly payments Just about balanced Munn's share of the receipts. So Meiady pocketed the $700 or $800, (hanked a kindly fate for his luck at escaping so easily and bade Mr. Munn a fond but emphatic farewell. Tip for Morris Schlatter. Panama Joe dans' real name is not as formidable as his ring pseud onym. The name his parents gave him is Cyril Quinton. Incidentally. I’aiiiniia Joe will find one of his old playmates in Omaha when he reaches here for his fight with Schlatter on December 17. Back in 1915 Panama knocked out Kid Graves in six round*. How lt’» Hone in Canada. MORRIS SCHLAIFER has de cided Canada Is not much of a country. Schlaifer went to Winnipeg to fight Bud Ix>gan for a guarantee of $1,000 and a percentage of the gross receipts. But the Winnipeg fan* weren't as enthusiastic about the bout a* the promoter* and when it was time to enter the ring it was found only $2,000 was in the house. "We can't pay you the guarantee," the promoters told Billy Lvick, who accompanied Schlaifer to \V innipeg. "you'll have to take 2a per cent of the gross and let it go at th^t " "Nothing doing," declared 1'viek "We came up here on a guarantee and we ll insist on our money." The promoter shrugged his shmil deiw. "Very well." he said. "In that »vent ther ewtll be no fight and you won't get a cent. The argument continued, but the promoter emerged victorious. Schlaifer received $500 for hi* end That Just about paid expenses for the trip for Morris and C'vlck.

Greb Loses Chance to Win Another Champnionship TURK, I tec. 11 — The ambition of Harry Greb to an nex the light heavy weight title in conjunct ion with hi* own mid dleweight crown cam* a cropper last night when the Pittsburgh fighter lost a de cision t o Gene Tunney, pride of While the decision did not meet with the approval of aome, the ma Jorlty of the 11,000 spectators were satisfied that Tunney had earned the Verdict. Tunney won 10 of the 1T. rounds. Grob accounted hir four, while one was even. Greb failed be cause lie could not matter the body attack launched by Tunney.

IU Oflio JHMft Hanitv M - LACK OF REPORTS FROM BIG MEETING LEADS FANS HERE TO BELIEVE BARNEY WILL PILOT No Playing Manager on Club Means That Burch Must Get Busy and Sign Good First Baseman to I ake Kd Ko -lietchy’s Place—Johnny Kerr May Not Keturn to Club in Spring—Want First String Catcher and More Pitchers. _ I OTHING emerging from the annual meeting of the triino; leagues In Chicago to the effect that the Omaha Buf faloes are to have a new manager next spring, so we take it that Barney Burch, owner, will do the piloting of the Herd himself. Before leaving for Chicago, Burch Informed us that if he didn’t succeed In landing a good playing-manager that he would take over the managerial reigns of the dub himself, and we guess he is going to do that little thing. If Burch decides to manage the team.he will have to get a first baseman. He had seveyH strings out for a first-sacker before he left Omaha, hut whether or not he pulled In any of these strings Is not known here. Barney had his eyes on McDowell, Wichita first baseman of 1222, but he doesn’t stand much of a chance of landing one of the best players on Frank Isbell's club of fence smashers. I** sides a first baseman, Kurrh needs a shortstop. Johnny Kerr says lie won't come back, but its a hint; time until the hall players flock south and when that time comes maybe .lolm will change his mind. Then again, maybe Barney doesn't want Kerr any inure. Jimmy Wilcox will he hack at third and the entire outfield of Don Itrown. Dick O'Connor, Joe Bono witx and Nick Cullop will return to the Herd next spring, so we are told. Burch is trying to land some pitching help from the big show, also a good first string catcher. To date, nothing haa happened that would indicate the Buffaloes had any new material for the 1911 race. A report from Chicago says Presi dent A! Tierney may resign. He may and he may not. There is a certain group of club owners in this league who would like nothing better than to see Tearney get the gate. The Western league president s suspen sion of Jack Lelivelt for a very short time last summer when the Tulsa manager committed a serious offense on the playing field and Tearney "a decision at Wichita that a game be replayed, has caused considerable hard feeling toward the league presi dent. However. Tearney is expected to head the Western again next sea son in spite of all these rumbles to the contrary. Paddock Case May Result in Clash New York Dec. 10—Another clash in athelt^: governing circles over the suspension by the Amateur Athletic union of Charles Paddock, sprinting Star, for competing without A. A. V. sanction in an international college meet in Paris last spring, may grow out of the annual meeting of the National Collegiate association at At lanta December 27 and 28. The X. C A A which sanctioned Paddock's participation abroad de spite the A. A. U., has challenged ihe latter body'* failure to reinstate the Californian in a notice distributed to members announcing that the case will be laid before the convention. This notice points out that the French athletic federation has lifted suspensions It imposed as a result of Paddock's part in the Paris meet and declares that the attitude of the A. A. U lias raised an Issue Involving 20 principles. The principles are de fined as “whether or not the col leges have to request authority In this or any other country." and “whether or not all amateur ath letes of good character who are citi tens of the United States and have never represented anothr country are eligible to enter our Olympic try outs." A« far as th A A. V. Is concerned. Pad desk ■* disqualification was^ auto matic when he went abroad to MB pe!e in defiance of a ruling*against foreign trips by American athletes this vear because of the' proximity of the Olympics. In addition he made certain charge* again*! the A A. U. which, official* say. must be substan tiated or withdrawn by the athlete before the lifting of hi* suspension will lie considered.
