; as firmly set against a dodger berth
as was the case several days ago.
The star shortstop hit the nail on
the head by coming out with a state
ment that "he is after the money."
Ebbets has produced the coin In the
sum of $10,000 that will go to Tinker
if he agrees to play with Brooklyn,
and because it doesn't look as though
there will be $10,000 coming from an
other source the chances for the for
mer cub to hook up with Ebbet's
club are excellent.
Will Murphy Offer $10,O0C?
The thing uppermost in Tinker's
mind at this time is the question of
what Charles Murphy of the cubs will
do if he gets the opportunity to bring
back his former shortstop. The much
advertised player hasn't mentioned it,
but undoubtedly is asking himself
whether or not Murphy stands willing
to come through with $10,000 as a
bonus, besides giving Cincinnati a
couple of players in trade.
Murphy, of course, has said noth
ing along this line. In fact, he will
He stated em
phatically yesterday that he will not
have a hand in a deal for Tinker un
til he learns more about the affair. In
other words, he is not going to be in
terviewed until he gets permission to
talk with Tinker and follow the con
ference with an offer for a trade.
No answer was received from Herr
maun in reply to the letter sent by
the cub boss the day previous asking
permission to speak with Tinker and
get his views on a trade to bring him
back to the West Side. Murphy
doesn't even know that Herrmann will
reply. In fact, the cub owner is try
ing to show a disinterested attitude,
but just the same, if he had to decide
between his right foot and Tinker
he'd give up the foot.
Tinker Still in the Dark.
Tinker doesn't know just where he
stands. He has received no notice
from either the Cincinnati or Brook
lyn clubs. He is wondering why Eb
bets doesn t come through with an I
offer in order to clinch the deal be-1
out for and Tommy Murphy will get
in on the second table. Stay though
our Willie magnanimously agreed to
allow Murphy $200 to defray the cost
of his recent training at San Rafael.
It appears that some one reminded
Ritchie that he had received a similar
sum rrom Leach Cross when the
match in New York was postponed
because of some injury' suffered by
Cross, and. being reminded. Ritchie
decided to loosen his purse strings to
the extent mentioned.
So that there should be no mistake
about it, it might be mentioned that

Murphy, had not knocked under com

,gasted there -ouM have been no
fight. - Buckley wasted 25 per cent of
the gate for Murphy. When, after
several powwows he found Ritchie ob
durate he agreed that Ritchie should
have his $15,000 and that whatever
was left after expenses were paid
should be divided by Coffroth and
Murphy. Not a word was said about
reimbursing Coffroth. even in a small
degree', for the amount he lost by the
December 10 match falling through.

St. Joseph, Mo., Dec. 17. Spike
Kelly last night tangoed his way to a
15-round decision over Billy W'alters
in a love-tapping affair. It was fea
tured by "jack rabbit" exhibition on
the part of the winner, who never at
any time was in danger, and as a re
sult stalled along to the finish. After
the final gong, however, Walters and
Kelly mixed it rough and tumble for
more than a minute. They showed
considerable personal feeling and it
tcok seconds, police and spectators to
part them.
Walters butted Kelly as the final
geng rang and the tw-o men flew Into
each other in earnest. It was a much
better fight than the one on the bell.
Kelly's head was cut in the melee.
In the boxing match Kelly seemed
imbued with an idea that it was up to
him to display cleverness and be
grandstanded throughout. He danced
and cavorted and tapped Walters in
the face at will, pivoted him frequent
ly, and grinned all the while. Walters,
on the other hand, was desperately in
earnest, but seemed unable to locate
his shifty opponent with the decisive
blows.
Neither one landed with any show
of force and the house was in roars of
laughter most of the time, mingled
with hisses of disgust at what would
undoubtedly have proved a good exhi
bition had Kelly shown the same dis
position to fight as did Walters.
Walter's face was rather red and
swollen at the finish, but otherwise
yond a doubt. According to the agree- neither man was marked. Kelly pre-
ment made when the deal was put

signing and reporting for service. As
he couldn't report before spring it is

game after a strenuous 20 minutes
by a 6core of 14 to 8. By w inning the
contest the Seniors retrieved their
lost honor, and are again In the first

The fourth year girls appeared on
the floor with a remodeled line up. and
the shift has proven most wise. Anna
Dittman, who has been alternating at
center with Ruth Blakemore, played
at guard last evening, and did her
work so well that Elizabeth Bryan,
who has been principle score maker
for the '15 team, was able to toss the
ball through the hoop for a single
field goal.
The Game.
The Seniors took the lead from the
first whistle and maintained a healthy
distance from the Junior score. Long
shots by Margaret Cook helped to run
up the score In the first half, and the
Initial session closed with an 8 to 6
score. The last half was a repeti
tion of the first, with the Juniors
fighting harder than ever for the vic
tory and the Seniors locating the loop
from all angles. Miss Margaret Cook
took stellar honors with four baskets
to her credit, her running mate. Miss
Blanche Carpenter, coming a close
second with three goals. In the minds
of some, the Juniors played the best
game, for their open floor team work
outclassed that of the Senior
