COME more of the odor attendant
apo b stealing of the Hurley
Bender match from the olympic
Club by the McGuigan Club drifted into
the office today when George Carroll,
OF Elisabeth, Bender's manager, called
Up
George said that the Olympic CLUB
arranged the match with him MONDAY,
and were to have let him know Tues
day If Hurley was satisfied. Tuesday
Tom Messenger called up Carroll and
told him that Hurley had been signed
UP by him for a bout at McGuigan's
Here Is a discrepancy. Abe Priestal
told me yesterday that up to Wednes-
day afternoon, when somebody called
up Frank Frayne. representing him
self as Carroll, the Olympic metch
was on. McGuigan had Frayne sign
papers Wednesday afternoon, an hour
after Frayne first heard from Nc

manage another fighter. He is Freddy
Kelly, of Philadelphia. Sam Murphy,
sporting editor of the Evening Times
In Philly, was responsible for the shift.
He says Kelly ia a corking 1873 or 100

Jimmy DeForest called up yesterday
from Allenhurst, very excited over the
story published In this column the

reflection on his camp. We will say
here that our information e~xculpates
DeForest from all blame. laying 1t on
a New York gambler. II 1t Is true that
Burns wa the victim Of some funny
work. I learn 10 that the whole mat
ter will peter out. Jimmy DeForest,
though, should not worry. No blame
attaches to him In the slightest.

Il IL not unlikely that Tom ORourke.
of the National Sporting Club of New
York, will match up Patsy Kline with
Tommy Kilbane, Of Cleveland, VINO
lust put Abe Attell on the blink. The
men will meet, II present arrangements
go through, on February IT. Kilbane
will have to make LA pounds for Kline
or there won't be any fight.
