RECEIVES TEMPTING OFFER
Darcy May Accept ReisIer's $50, 900
for Bout.

NEW YORK, Jan. 4-John Reisler,
ably has paved the way for staging
Les Darcy's first bout. His offer of
$50 900 to the Australian to take on
Billy Miske or Charley Weinert looks
so good to Darcy that on the advice
of Tex Richard, he probably will &C.
cept it.
II Reisler has the cash and can pro-
duce It there is little question that
Darcy's name will be signed to art
icIes of agreement within a few days.
Billy Miske already has agreed to
his end of the arrangement.
Rickard is not in a position to
stage a bout at present. He has not
obtained a lease on Madison Square
Garden, without which it is impOs-
sible to get a license for bouts in
that structure. He saw Darcy was
likely to lose time by waiting until
something happened, and advised him
to accept Reisler's offer If it was any
thing but conversation cash.
ReisIer met Richard and Darcy last
night and flashed five $1,000 bills
which he offered to deposit as a guar
antee that he would produce the 9th
err S25 900 before time for the bout.
II is also believed Al Mccoy is being
seriously considered as a probable
trial horse for Darcy. The clumsy
BroolIlyinite, who floored George Chip
for the count and came into possession
Of the wobbly middleweight crown, IS
the logical man to meet the overseas
visitor. Mike Donlin is quietly trying
to cinch this bout, and others
have begun negotiations. 1t is be-
| lieYed only a few days will now elapse
until Darcy has signed for tight.

Johnny vaeth Gets All With
Muir's Team in Games
With AIexandrians.

Almost every local bowler is ready
to concede that John l.. vaeth, for
mer pride of Baltimore, Is quite q
duckpinner. The Grand Central star,
rolling with Walter Muir's Joseph
Phillips team, In a match with Har-
ley's Stars, of Alexandria, at the
Grand Central last night, achieved the

most brilliant Of any local roller.
Have Big Margin.
Muir's team gained a margin Of
ninety-seven pins in the three games
last night, and a like advantage re-
suited in favor of the local quint.
when set was rolled in Alexandria
a short time ago. sHarley's bowlers
are now due to furnish a feed, the
stake for which the match was rolled.
Last night was an exceptional one
on the alleys In addition to Vaeth,
a number OF individuals per-
formed in a creditable manner, in
GLIDING Earl Keller, OF the Superials,
in the Brunswick League, who had
the best game of 157, and Hough, of
Breech Making, Navy Yard League,
whose set OF 564 ranked next to
Vaeth's.
COntinentais Increase Lead.
The continentals succeeded in iu-
creesing their lead in the District
League by winning three games from
the Good Fellows, and obtained the
second best set OF the night, 1.60S,
Muir's team having 1851 for rrst
honors. The Lebanon quint, Masonic
League, came forward with a total
Of 1,606, and its final game OF $50

ROYALS ARE BEATEN
IN WINNING STREAK
Wind Up With 20 in Row, Pal
ace Grabbing Last Two
Games of Duckpin Match. +,

Instead OF the well-worn phase
Royals win again." which has con
fronted the eye Of the bowling fan
all season with reference to those
expert rollers, we have today. Royals
are beaten" and the monotony is
broken, temporarily, at least.
After winning the first game from
Palace, at the Palace alleys last
night, and bringing their total OF con.
secutive games won in the National
Capital League up to Twenty-Five, the
Royals dropped the next two, and
four-score spectators saw the termina-
ton Of the longest winning streak in
the history Of local bowling. The
string included clean sweeps over all
teams of the league, and it Is be-
iieved this record will stand for q long
time.
Carroll Saves Game.
J. Bernard Carroll, who generally
performs his best in the pinch, saved
the Royals from defeat in the first
game. He contributed 125 and his
team won by 529 to $40. Palace took
the second, SIS to 511, and the third.
by virtue Of some capable ROLLING In
the final frames, $50 to 641.
With Harry Krauss missing from
the Royal lineup the team was con-
siderably weakened. Lonnie Krauss,
Harry's brother, took the latter's
place and rolled Jog, 95, and 81. Lon
ME, however, does not claim to be an
expert.
Get Small Set.
The Royals rolled one of their
smallest sets OF the season; knocking
down 1851 pins against 1000 for Pal
ace. The team was unable to go at
top speed any time. Leadoff Wood, of
Palace, had the. best individual set
Of the match. His total was 339, three
pins better than Williams, Of Palace.
Carroll led the Royals with 332.

COLUMBIA GOLFER
HAS VOTE ON RULE
DR.. W. S. Harlan to Attend
U. S. G. A. Meeting, Which
Promises Action.

Columbia Country Club, through its
representative on the U. s. G. A. gov
erning board. DR.. W. S. Harlan. will
have a voice in the disposition of the
rule affecting the Woodland Golf
Club of Massachusetts,. which has
created such a furore in golfing cir
cles.
DR.. Harlan is q member of the ma
tional governing board which meets
January IL in New York and will be
asked to rescind the apateur ruling
which has placed the ban on such
golfers as Ouimet, Tewksbury, and
Sullivan, members of the Woodland
Golf Club,
Interpreted Ruling.
Last January DIR. Harlan was on
the Interpretation committee which
expounded the ruling affecting the
star golfers. Since last year many
clubs have taken exception to the
ruling and considerable controversy
has been going op between the Wood
land Golf Club and President Wood
ward. of the U. S. G. A
The matter Is expected to be fully
fought out at the coming meeting at
which DR.. Harlan, as Columbia's rep
resentative, will be present. DR.. Har-
ban is of the same mind as he was
last year. He has followed the trend
of argument advanced by the Wood
land Club in an effort to color opin-
ion in favor of the Massachusetts,
golfers.
ct am of the same mind as I was
when the rule was put into effect"
declared DR.. Harlan. 81 have no idea
be and do not know what the others
think at present. The whole matter
will probably be threshed out at the
coming meeting"
Gains Many Backers.
The Woodland Club appears to have
gained many hackers in the effort to
have the rule changed. It is pointed
out that none of the three golfers
mentioned so often have moved to
have themselves reinstated.
The Massachusetts, club is said to
be moving in the interests of the
game at large, and is actuated by no
motive other than to give all golfers,
declared pros by the U. S. G. A, a
fair chance.
The New York meeting promises to
be an eventful. one. Washington
clubs have been in receipt of letters
from many prominent golfers who are
now in the winter colony at Pine
hurst. 1t is declared that the men,
bers of various clubs at Pinehurst are
in favor of reinstating Ouimet and 9TH
ers affected by the ruling without
prejudice to the players.

STRONG TEAMS IN
OPENING BATTLES
Business and Central Picked to
T Win Engagements Tomor-
row at Y. M. C. A.

Business and Central are picked as
winners in tomorrow's HIGH School
Basketball League inaugural to be
staged at the Y. M. C. A., beginning
at 2:45 p. m.
The Stenographers have a veteran
combination in Buck Wise, Ralph
Wise, Macdonald, Glessner, and Tow
bes, This team earned second honors
in the Interscholastic League last
winter. and judging from the play in
the games this season, there will be
somewhat slower work than in last
seasons battles.
Business has worked together
smoothly all season without the loss
of a single engagement. The Stenog-
raphers have won five games, re-
Gently defeating Gonzaga, which yes
terday humbled Western by 16. to 8.
Forwards Are Clever.
Both SHise boys are clever for
wards. If Ralph Wise is playing at
right forward the combination will
be unusually strong. Coe may be
used instead of Ralph Wise, who has
bene forced to take layoff since
football season.
Western appears against Business
in the opening battle, and the team
is not rated as strong enough to give
Business more than an argument
Wight and Groves will probably play
forwards, Chamberlaine, center, and
tombstone and Heron, guards. This
combination has hit II off fairly wen
in some engagements this season.
By a peculiar coincidence West
ern and Businessl are meeting in the
first game of the series, for the third
time in succession.
Central should win.
Central should overcome Eastern
by as good a margia as Business
should defeat Western. The Central
lads have the benefit Of frst-class
gym, something Eastern lacks. In
addition Central has worked out many
times this year under favorable con-
ditions and against strong teams,
Daily and Gottlieb are expected TO
start at forwards. White will proba-
bly, jump center with Long, kaplan
and Potter scrapping 1t out for
lne SScSh ~--SOeN
frey, Of Eastern. will probably put
Earnshsw and Thomas in forwards,
in. center. and Newman and
in guards.
Advisers VIII Meet.
Details of the basketball series will
be arranged today at Tech when the
advisers get together in a meeting
postponed from yesterday. Engage
ments precluded the possibility OF
all five advisers together at
meeting and Chairman
Birch scheduled q meeting for today.
Prof. c. E. Beckett will referee the
first game tomorrow and James Y.
Hughes will umpire. In the second
contest the men will switch about:
There will be no time out tomorrow,
the teams taking the floor between
the halves OF the first game for the
second encouAter.
