PRO. FOOTBALL LEAGUE
MAY INTEREST MAGNATES

Chicago, Jan. 1o-The organization of
professional football leagues similar to
the big baseball circuits and the utiliza-
ton Of big league parks as grldirons after
the baseball season is over 10 a plan that
Is being considered by baseball magnates.
An agent OF a professional team is in
Chicago to confer with President weegh-
man. of the Cubs. and Owner Comiskey,
OF the White Sox. President Navin, of
the Detroit Americans; Barney Dreyfuss,
Of the Pirates and President Hempstead

CARPENTER signs
TO BATTLE WILLARD
Champion or Wells to Meet French
Fighter in England.

New York. Jan. lo-George Carpen-
tier, the French heavyweight champion.
Is not coming to America to box He
already has signed q contract to meet
some heavyweight IN tho Hofborn Sta
diun in London, and the proceeds are to
be shared by the promoters with the
allies hospital fund
According to Joe sarno. mepaGer Of
Young Zulu Kid. who returned to this
country yesterday on board the steamship
ST. Paul. Carpenter Il bound to face
either Jess Willard or Bombardisr Wells
In a twenty-round contest to be staged IN
the London Stadium sarno says he 10
AUTHORIZED to talk terms to willard by
Callaghan. who promoted the Jimmy
Wllde-Zulu KID affair, IN which Wilde
won in eleven rounds, and who has sign
ed Carpenter to Q contract.
'callaghan has Carpenter under con-
tract to hght in London said Sarno.
The French heavyweight has agreed to
meet Willard or any other prominent
heavyweight provided willard Is not
agreeable.
The. fight will take place in the Hol-
born Stadium, which holds 1000 per-
sons. and the receipts will go to the
allies fund for care Of wounded soldiers
Il intend to get in touch with Willard
Immediately and am in position to make
will not he held up. as this bout Is a
charitable affair. and Willard must un-
Jerstand this. In the event that Willard
balks at the offer Wells Will meet Car
peutier
Carpenter has permissio to leave
the front to train and get into condition
for a hard fight. Most Of the talk around
London is about the possibility OF bring
ing Willard over to meet Carpenter.
The Frenchman Ia a big favorite with
the English sportsmen. and I am GER
tain that the bout would draw several
hundred thousand dollars. Willard can
make biz profit and also make himself
4 public benetactor by accepting this
bout. as the entire receipts, above ex-
penEes, are surely going to charity
Callaghan could not put on the bout
any other way. as Carpenter would not
agree to 1t.
Il heard from different sources that
Carpenter wanted to come to America,
but refused to entertain any such ideas
until the war is over. He has been lion
lied by friends and foe for his exploits
50 far and likes the plaudits Of war as
much as he does those of the ring.
As to Jimmy Wilde, the little boxer
who knocked out Young Zulu Kid, let
me rise to remark that he is about the
best boy Of his pounds that ever lived
lie can hit. box and defend himself with
perfection. The Kid would have mad.
better showing IL he had been in Eng
land longer. as the climate conditions
were not suitable, but Wilde is a terror
and certainly a champion
Sarno and his pTOtese are going back
70 England shortly to engage In three
hoHts, one OF which Is with Wilde. He
hopes 10 take Willard with him.
