GREAT SCRAMBLE
 FOR JOE TINKER
Report Of Three Cornered Deal Between PhiIlies, Brooklyn
 and Cincinnati

One of the most spirited scrambles which has ever been made for a base ball player is under way in the Ma Tinker, the short stop and deposed manager of the Cincinnati Reds, Au- gust Hermann, president of the Gin cinnatf club, has been approached on all sides by club owners who are anx1- ous to get Tinker. MT. Hermann says he is in no hurry to sell Tinker, and when he does he wants full value for him, as he considers him the most valuable short stop in the National League.
 President Charles H. Ebbets of Brooklyn for the last two days has been in frequent conferences with MT. Hermann over some deal by which the Dodgers may land Tinker. The gossip is to the effect that a three corner deal is being arranged between Brooklyn, Cincinnati and Philadelphia whereby Tinker will go to the Brook lyn club and Mike Doolan of the Phil lies will go to Cincinnati.
 If Brooklyn can make a satisfactory exchange with Philadelphia, Doolan will be free to go to Cincinnati, pro- viding that Cincinnati and Brooklyn can arrange the deal so that Phila- delphia will be satisfied and Cincinnati will get in players the equivalent of the $20,000 which MT. Hermann says Tinker is worth, minus, of course, the price which the teams agree that Mike Doo1an is worth to Cincinnati. If the deal goes through, it will cost Brook lyn- more players and money than they have bargained in for many years.
 Harry AckerIand, who represents the Chicago club in the absence of Charles w. Murphy, is also out for Tinker
 While these other teams are making Cincinnati hattering offers for Thinkers services, the New York club is resting on its oars It would not be surpris- ing it the other deals fail to come to a head if the New York club would step in and make an offer which Mr Hermann could not afford to turn down and bring the great shortstop to New York next spring.

NEWARK TO TRAIN CLUB
 AT COLUMBUS, GEORGIA

Newark, N. J., Dec. 9-It was an nounced here yesterday afternoon by Charles H. Ebbetts, IT,, the new presi- dent of the Newark club, that Man ager Harry Smith had made satisfac- arrangements to have the Indians do their spring training at Columbus, Ga. Smith looked over the Columbus base ball grounds and was immediately struck with the ideal conditions, so that he did not visit the other cities which had offered inducements to the Indians.
 It is expected that the players will leave here about February 20 and actually start their preparation a month before they did last season. Smith remained long enough in Co., Iumbus to see that some minor changes were made on the playing field. He also left Instructions for a sliding pit to be dug and the constr11c- ton of a. handbaH court. Manager Smith is a great believer in the hand ball game to Timber up the men in the spring.

RAMBL1RS HOPE TO BEAT RIBBON
 PLAYERS IC NIGHT

he Basketball fans will be out in force tonight to see the clash between the Blue Ribbons and the crack Ram bler live of Stratford at Colonial hall. These two teams are old rivals and as the Ribbons have BeardsIey. the for mer Rambler player, the feeling will be more bitter. The Ribbons are de- pending upon Smith and Morrison to toss in the baskets, but the Rambfers say they will have these players we'll guarded. It is rumored that the Ram blers may have star player from out Of town, although this cannot be con- hfmed- Manager Leavy has offered the Ramblers $25 if they win and of course they are anxious to get the coin After the game Speidel will furnish music for dancing. There will be a preliminary between the State Trade school five and the Cranberry team of Norwalk. The main game starts at 80.

HARVARD CHICAGO
 GAME ASSURED

Cambridge. Mass, Dec. e.-Al1 that is necessary to make a Harvard-Uni- versity of Chicago football contest in the local stadium on October 24 next a reality is acceptance on the part of the Middle Western champions.
 Thomas K Richards Harvard's man ager has already forwarded an offer West. If Stagg's Maroon team accepts the invita- ton it must do so with the understanding that Harvard is under no obligation to return the complim by journeying to Chicago in 1915.
 Princeton comes to the Stadium on Novemb her 2, hence Chicago's desire for a meeting on the previous Saturday y was not received with favor here.
 Realizing that he will probably have the best football team of his career at Harvard next sea son, Coach Haugh- ton is anxious to annex a genuine in tercolIegiate championship and Chi cago was selected as Harvard's oppo- nent because it proved the strongest team in its section.

CARPENTER WINS
 IN FIRST ROUND
French Champion Knocks Bonn bsrdier Wells Out In $2O,
 900 Fight

London, Dec. 9-It will take the Eng fish nation a long time to recover from the blow to it's growing supremacy which Europe delivered last night at the National Sporting club by the French champion, Georges Carpentier, who in a. single round defeated the British hopes, in the person of Bonn bardier Wells
 The fight, which was scheduled to go twenty rounds, for a purse and stakes amounting to $20,000, the larg- sst ever offered by the National Sport Ing club, attracted greater attention han any contest in the past decade.
 When time was called Carpenter rame from his corner full of conf1- Hence and fight. He lost time In sparring, and evidently saw the best tactics were not to give Wells time to feel his feet and recover his nerves. There was a mOnentary mix up, then Carpenter delivered a fright fuI blow over the heart. Then fol- lowed, at short intervals, a terrific right and left on the jaw of the En- glfshman, who fell to the floor, writh- ing convu1sively- He was counted out before he could rise, the fight lasting exactly seventy-four seconds.
 Carpentier was still Ecool, and was immediately seized and shouldered out of the ring. Wells finally rose, and attempted to make a speech, but his voice was not audible above the ex- cited hubbub, and anyway the spec tators were in no mood to listen to explanations from their fallen hero.

SALE OF RED SOX
 ALMOST COMPLETE
Owner Lannin Will Appoint Friend of Mayor Fitzgerald
 AS Secretary

The deal by which Joseph B. Lannln, the Garden City hotel man, becomes half owner of the Boston Red Sox, was formerly closed at the Hotel Walcott, New York. yesterday, when hann1n signed the papers by which he took over the stock formerly owned by James McAIeer, Robert McRoy and Jake StahL
 sThe deal was engineered by Ban Johnson, president of the American interests. John I. Taylor, former president of the Red Sox, whose fath- CT, General Charles Taylor, owns the other half of the club, was also pres ent when the transaction was com pleted.
 It is understood tha@ Lannin paid the sum of $250, 900 for the McAleer, McRoy, StahI interests, a slight in crease over the sum for which Gen. eral Taylor sold this half or the club two years ago
 The club will be reorganized at this meeting, when Lannin will be elect led president. Edward Moore, sacre- tary to Major Fitzgerald of Boston, will be elected secretary of- the club, while Hugh McBreen, who was sec retary Of the club before the AIcAieer regime, will again be connected with the club in some capacity.
 The election of Moore will mean a new feather in the cap of Honey Fitzgerald, the aggressive mayor of Boston. Ever since Secretary.Treas- urer McRoy pulled his fatal blunder at the Worlds Series games of 1912, selling out the seats of the Royal Hooters, Fitzgerald has been on the warpath, and demanded that a Boston man be put in the place. Many Bos-s ton fans vowed after the 1912 Worlds Series tha tthey would not visit Fen way Park until McRoy was dismissed.

Harry Wolter Will Cover First Base For N. Y. Americans

Jack Knight, the New York Ameri- can infelder, has taken another hop from the majors into the minors. This time Jack jumps west of the A1leg- hanies. President Farrell sold him to the Toledo club of the American As sociation.
 According to good report, Harry Wolter will play first base for the Yankees until better man is found for the position. Wolter came into the big leagues as a pitcher, but he is a, capable first baseman. He played that position for the Red Sox, and also played it for the Yankees for a stretch in 1911 when Hal Chase was laid up.
