contest at the National Sporting Club
here tonight between Georges Carpcn-
tier. idol Of France, and Bombardier
Wells. hope Of the United Kingdom for
The heavyweight championship of Eu-
.ope. for purse of $4,000 and side
stake Of $4,000.
Wells has tremendous advantage
i'm height weight and reach and gem
eraI confidence is expressed in his
ability to win, but the odds are only
} TO in his favor. This is accounted
for bv the fact that on June |, at
Client. Wells vas defeated in the
fourth round by Carpenter after the
Englshman had had all the better OF
the first two rounds.
Both men I'm the course Of their box
ing careers have been beaten by Anne
ricans. Papke and Klaus accounted
for the Frcnchman. and PalZer and
Gunboat Smith for the Englishman.
Opinion is unanimous that the con-
test will not last the full twenty rounds,
but that IN the first few rounds one
NJ the mcn will be knocked out. More
than a fortnight ago every seat in the
National Sporting club was disposed
of at prices varying from s2j to $40.

WANT A SHORTER
PLAYING SCHEDULE
International League MagnateS
Would Cut Down Season by
FOrty.tWO Games.

Prosressycness will be the keynote o,
the International League baseball mog'lls
when they meet in their annual session
ut the Hotel Imperial. this city, to-day.
and a proposition for a number OF radical
changes i'm the playing schedule Of the
league will be considered.
These consist OF playing doubleheaders
on Saturdays and Sundays; the shorten
ing OF the playing season to 1l2 games,
instead OF lj4. as at present; the ending
Of the regular season on August IS, in
stead of September %. and the arranging
of an inter-league series with the Ameri-
can Association, the Double 4 League OF
the Middle West. and the playing OF a
series of eight games between each club
Of the two leagues.
The scheme for the doubleheaders on
Saturdays and Sundays was evolved by
Edward j. McKeever. Brooklyn National
League magnate who Is one OF the chief
stockholders in the Newark club. lie saw
Jersey CITY do well financially last season
By playng two games on Sunday, and
he thought the idea would be good one
for tho league as a whole.
popularity of the situation in the IN
ternational is that Sunday ball is per-
mitted i'm four of the eight cities. while
In the four others there is a ban on the
sport on the Sabbath. Jersey City. New
ark. Providence and Montreal are the
Sunday towns, and it is proposed to have
the four other clubs meet the home teams
twice every Sunday afternoon.
President Edward Barrow of the Inter-
national League is the father of the inter-
league series between the International
and the American Association. He recent
~ sent out circular letters to all the club
owners on his circuit, and from the re-
plies he has received he says he is abso-
lutely certain that the international
League will give the plan trial.
