tho colored boy step- as fast as ho
knows how. Eddie Is getting Into
condition and he hates the colored
boys. Both St Clair and White will
weigh exactly the same. The weight
will be 133 pounds ringside. Both boys
will finish their training in Ogden the
last paFt of this week. The bout will
be twenty rounds and it will be held
Tuesday. Feb. 5.
Kid Koko, the real fun-maker of the
Ogden boxers will be on tho card
again. This will be his last Ogden ap
pearance. Koko says he is going to
retire after this bout. He wants Red
Hogan as his opponent as he thinks he
can knock him out and finish his ring
career brilliantly.

J i'1',-' '' west, the Salt Lake olub will open

' i 1 i ' tlon brought about because of the
' I ' i I franchise switch from Portland to
"i ,t Sacramento. The entry of the Califor-
, I'.k' nia capital gives tbe league three
'Mr i... coast cities In which weather condi-

engagements will bo long ones except
the last, which will find the club hero
for but two weeks. During the month
of July, the club will be at Bonneville
park for four straight weeks.
Salt Lake has 95 games at home
and 107 on the road. The reason for
the greater number of road games, of
course, being that all of the California
cities play morning and afternoon
games on Sunday.
Jack Cook saw to it that his club
fared well in the distribution of the
big holiday dates. The Bees drew
Memorial day . at homo with Oakland,
July 4 at home with the new entry
from Sacramento, July 24 at Bonne
ville with Oakland and Labor day hero
with Vernon. In addition to the fine
list of home dates for the big days,
the Bees also drew the beals at San
Francisco for Admission day (Septem

'BEEF TRUST' AGAIN
BIDS FOR SPOTLIGHT
NEW YORK. Jan. 2G. The "beef
trust" is making a bid again for the
spotlight. The bouts at Madison
Square Garden Tuesday night promise
to revive interest in wrestling.
"Wladeck Zbyzsko," from far off Po
land, who proclaims himself heavy
weight wrestling champion of the
world, wilLmeet John Olln, the -"Mammoth
Finn," and Joe Stecher, inventor
of the deadly scissors hold, at one time
considered the local successor of
Frank Gotch.
From all parts of the country chal
lengers have been coming for Zbyzsko,
the "champ." He is taking them in or
der of their particular qualification to
meet him.
The whole affair may result in the
revival of interest in the "beef trust"
and the crowning of a new king.

MONTANA TO if El
II IF yflNIGHI
Basketball Contest in Salt Lake
Will Be Fast and Furious
Game.
SALT LAKE, Jan. 2S. A fierce bas
ketball contest is expected tonight
when Utah clashes with Coach Fred
Eennion's Montana Fanners. More
than ordinary interest is attached to
the outcome of the game for two out
standing reasons. The first is that uni
versity boosters will have a chance to
sec how the Crimson stacks up with
the Logan Aggies, as Coach Jensen's
boys were able to trim Montant twico
in a row. The second tinges on the
sentimental because It will bo a match
between teacher and pupil. Tommy
Fitzpatrick, tho Utah mentor, having
acquired a great deal of his athletic
ability under Bennion's tutelage.
Montana Determined.'
If tho local institution can win by a
score that compares at all favorably
with those piled up by the Loganites
against the same team It will foretell
a clase, exciting race for tbe state
championship, an honor that carries
with It a crack at tho Rocky mountain
conference title. That this will bo a
difficult matter seems highly probable
becauso tho Montana knights of the
short pants are determined to put
forth every effort to leavo Utah soil
with at least one victory.
The Montana athletes declaro that
they were not in the best of condi
tion at Logan because of their long trip
and the absence in the first game of
Pitts their star forward. Tho team is a
husky though not particularly heavy
bunch and appears to be in good shape.
The Utah Aggies aro said to play a
rough style of ball, although Montana
shows little ill effects of the games.
Probable Llnc-ups.
Both of the contending teams went
through a hard game Saturday night
so there will be little advantage to
either on that score. Utah showed in
the B. Y. C. game that it has a team of
great possibilities and with the object
it has to fight for tonight should put
up a fast lino of basketball art. Tommy
Fitzpatrick will probably start the
same line-up that he used in the first
game. Including Beal and Rudine at I
forwards, Stevenson at center and
Romney and Warner at guards. An
other man who will no doubt play a
part of the game at least, is Wright,
the forward who went in for Beal Sat
urday. Wright is not yet in tho best of
shape, but should prove a good point
winner later in the season. Montana
will probably play Pitts and Bush at
forwards. Harris at center and Ross
and Finch at guards.
The game will start promptly at 8:30
in the Deseret gym. Tho university
band will be on hand to inject life into,
tho game and to add entertainment if
any is necessary.
WISCONSIN SKIER IS
WINNER OF TOURNEY
CARY, 111., Jan 27. Lars Haugen,
Chippewa Falls, Wis., won tho na
tional championship at the annual ski i
tournament hero today under the aus
pices of the Norge Ski club of Chi
cago. Haugen jumped 122 and 116
feet.
The showing made by all partlcl-
pants was poor owing to the unfavor
able weather conditions. There was a
strong wind. The class B champion
ship was won by Sverre Henriksen of
Virginia. Minn. He lumped 102 and
101 feet.
Ragnar Omtyedt, former champion,
fell each time he descended the slide.
INTERNATIONAL MAY
OPEN WITH 6 CLUBS
NEWARK, N. J., Jan. 27. The In
ternational league may continue as a
six club league. This arrangement
loomed up as a possibility when Sam
Lichtenhelm. owner of tho Montreal
club, gave notice that he would not
start the season. A rumor is now cir
culated in baseball circles that Arthur
Irwin, now with the Toronto club, will
become a candidate for tho presidency.

George WhittetL
Unless Fred Luderus promises to
Zn5r,7Jlt bat t1"3 season he may
find his first base job with the Phil
lies in tho possession of George
Whitted, the Phillies' able outfielder.
Pat Moran is seriously considering
the change, now that ho has plenty
of outfield talent and can spare
George to hold down first. Whitted
has played first before in pinches and
shown himself well able to look after
the job. As a first sacker he would
be one of the hardest bitting in tho
' ramik
Ing team for the Yankees next season
took definite form today when ho di
rected his attentions toward tho De
troit Tigers. Huggins has been known
for some time to bo scouting for hard
hitting outfielders and has an over
supply of mound experts, which per
mits him to offer Hugh Jennings tho
assistance he is known to need.
It is hinted the new pilot of the New
York club is out for Ty Cobb.

MATHIESEN LOSES
TO SKATING CHAMP
ST. PAUL, Jan. 27. Bobby Mc
Lean, world's champion skater, defeat
ed Oscar Mathiesen today In the 220
yard dash and the two-mile race,
dropping the milo race. His time in tho
two-mile race was 5: 38 1-5, sixteen and
two -fifths seconds faster than his
mark in Chicago recently. His timo in
tho 220-yard dash, twenty seconds, was
one-fifth second better than his time
in Chicago.
Mathiesen won the mile event, fin
ishing fifteen yards ahead of McLean.
His timo was 2:40. three and three
fifths seconds slower than, McLean's
time in Chicago.
NAP LAJOSE IS TO
IIADJNDIJINS
INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 27. Nap La
jolo and not Sam Crawford is the "fa
mous big leaguer." J. C. McGill hopes
to secure as leader for his Indians to
succeed Jack Hendricks is made clear
by a statement from Lajoie himself. In
answer to a message of inquiry Lajoie
admitted that he had been made a def
inite offer by McGill, but that he had
not yet decided to accept it, but those
who know McGill believe that if the
question of salary is the only thing in
the way and probably that is all
then tho great Frenchman will come
here.
McGill, it is believed, is ready to go
as far as the next magnate be he
major or minor to secure Lajoie, if
the Frenchman is a free agent and
open for business, for McGill has a
tremendous liking for Lajoie as a man
ager and is of the conviction, it is
known, that he would be an ideal man
to manage the Indians and play first
base.
McGill is still In California. Ho has
announced that he will return 'in time
for the American association meeting
to be held in Chicago on February 20,
and that at that time he expects to
be ready to announce his manager.
That will be a pretty late start for
a manager, so the supposition is that
McGill knows already pretty well the
man he has in mind and that ho is
pretty suro of that man accepting the
position. The evasive tone of La
joio's message inclines the students of
the situation to believe that he is the
man picked and that ho only holds off
his confirmation because ho considers
announcement should come from the
club owner.
Frazee Claims ie Did
Not Give Away
Stuffy Mchsiis
When queried regarding stories from
Philadelphia in which Connie Mack
was quoted as saying that he practical
ly had presented Stuffy Mclnnls to
tho Red Sox, Harry Frazee, president
of the Bostdn Americans, said: "Stuff
and nonsense; ridiculous." Then Fra
zee added:
"I hope it's true. If Connie says so
there must be something to it, but I
will have to be shown. I will say the
same as he did when he denied that I
paid $60,000 to him for Bush, Schang
and Strunk.
"No one- will believe any such yarn
as Mack is trying to put over. Mclnnis
is the property of the Boston club
now. There are only a few things to
complete the deal, such as delivering
certain players to the Philadelphia
club. As yet I don't know what play-
ers will bo turned over, but I have a
good idea. However, it is something
for me lo decide, and cannot be done
right away.
"But to get back to Mack presenting
Stuffy to me, you can say that the Red
Sox aro out to give Boston a winning
club, and that is the reason I obtained
Mclnnis. You can bet Mack will got
what he is after. He is not in baseball
for Invrv You can sav that fnr me."
concluded the Red Sos magnate.
Frazee has another project in view
which will bring a star infielder to
his club. Ho would not intimate the
player in view, but stands ready to
give up players and cash to bring him
to the field. The player in question
lis thought to be Derrill Pratt of the
Browns.

Jimmy Viox, former Pittsburg Pi
rate, who quiet the Kansas City Blues
last season because of a salary dispute,
has come to terms with Manager John
Ganzel and will again pastime with

DEFENDS WILSON
i
Administration Would Have
to Be Divine to Avoid
All Mistakes.
BALTIMORE, Jan. 27. Senator
William E. Eorah of Idaho, in an ad
dress to an immense Patriotic De
fense league meeting in the Academy
of Music today, vigorously defended
President Wilson's administration and
congress against what he termed the
"wild criticisms" of some men who,
he said, could not forget partisanship
but whose real intention was to get at
the bottom of some of the mistakes
that have been made in the prepara
tions for war. Ho said:
"There are a few men in these cru
cial times who are unable to forget
their partisanship, but they must not
be taken too seriously, for. let me as
sure you that, as a whole, congress is
straining every nervo and spending
days and weeks of energy in tho great
task of turning a peace-loving nation
into a fighting machine and doing ev
erything in its power to put the na
tion on its strongest fighting basis. I
beg of you not to judge congress by
tho few who criticise. Tho process of
transformation is a big one, and in
order for no mistakes to have been
mndo the administration would haTelo 'I
be divine.''
WATERLOO, Iowa, Jan. 27 United
States Senator W. S. Kenyon, in an
address today, referred to what be
termed the unfortunate criticism of
the administration by Senator Chan
berlain. He said that helpful criticUm
was needed, but that harmful criticism
would make bad matters worse He
said that the United States navy was
beyond criticism and was, in bis opin
ion, ably directed by Secretary Dan ,
iels. Ho further said that all Incom
petency in the army or elsewhere
should be eliminated immediately.
