During the scrimmage forward passes were used, with Bell and Light hurling the ball to the ends or one of the backs.

Cardinals President Rese1lts Charge That He Tempered With Jack Hem Him For Manager.

Louisville, ky, Nov. 14.-BrAnch Hickey, president of the St. Louis Ma tionals, who attempted to sign Jack Hendricks, manager of the IndianapO- lis club of the American Association, for next season, issued 8 statement to- day replying to charges of tampering made by James c. McGill, president of the Indianapolis club. McGill holds Hendricks contract, which does not expire until 1919.
 "McGill admitted to me that he had given Hendricks his word that he would release im,'' Hickey said, >"and I resent the accusations made by him. When Hendricks informed me that he was at liberty to negotiate I put every penny I could offer into his sal ary, thinking, of course, that I would not be called upon to reimburse Me- Gill.
 'I regret that I failed to land Hen- dricks. It was 8 big disappointment. I want to make it plain, however. that I acted in straightforward manner. I did not attempt to steal Hendricks. There is no truth to reports that have opened new negotiations. The. deal is off in so far as I am con- cerned."

DECISION FOR FRATERNITY
New York State Court of Appeals be- cides Against Boston American League Club in Hagemau Case.

League Club in Hngeman Case.
 Albany, Nov. 14.-Under @ decision rendered by the Court of Appeals yesterday the Boston American league club will have to pay to the Baseball Players Fraternity $1.4s0. the differ ence between the salary called for in the Red Sox contract of Pitcher Kury M. (CAsy) Hageman in 1912 and what he actually received that season play ing with the Jersey City team of the International league. Hageman was transferred to the Jersey City team against his will and an unsuccessful attempt subsequently, was made to transfer him to the Denver team of the Western league. The pitcher then assigned his salary claim to the Base ball Players Fraternity, which car ried the case to the highest court of this state.
 The court, before which the case has been pending since May, 1915. did not pass upon the general question of transferring baseball player against his will, but merely held that on the statement of facts shown Haze man was entitled to the salary fixed under the Red Sox contract.

DIIL0 BADLY BEATEN

of Career at Hands of Billy Miske
 -FlOOred in Ninth.
 New York, Nov. 14.-Jack Dillon. once regarded as a contender for the heavyweight title, last night received the severest thrashing of his career in the ring of the Broadway Sport ing club. Dillon narrowly escaped a knockout at the hands of Billy Miske, the St. Paul aspirant to the light heavyweight championship.
 Had Miske dropped the Hoosier Bearcat for the count 1t would have been the first time that the rugged young giant from the banks of the Wabash had been treated in that manner. Only the sullen courage and vitality of Dillon saved him from be- ing put to sleep, and the manner in which he stood up under the bom- bardment of the Minnesota mau1er was a matter of wonderment to the crowd that packed the big clubhouse.
 Only once in the entire ten rounds was Dillon on the floor, and that was at the beginning of the ninth ses- sion. A stiff right handler dropped Dillon on his side, but he sprang to his feet before the referee even counted one.

markable ease. Another feature of Raymond's work is the clean manner in which he operates on his oppon- ent. Raymond has been wrestling for several years, and in this time he has gained the reputation of being one of the most honest performers m the game. While it is not believed that Fishman forced the Beantown boy to his limit in the recent bout the match with Kent, will be a harder one, and the Bay Slater will no doubt be called upon to use every bit of his mat gen. eralship to pin the Capital City art ist's shoulders to the mat.
 Rents record as an amateur stamps him as sure conner in the wrestling world. He was the chief contender last year for the crown annexed by Fishman in the A. A. U. champion ships, losing to the Elm City grappler after a gruelling battle. Since that ment in his work, and his friends in Hartford are going to hack him to the last dollar in the match with Ray mond. In tackling Raymond, Kent realizes the tough proposition that confronts him, but with the prestige to be gained through a victory over Raymond, the Hartford boy has set tied down to hard training to fit him for the coming bout.

The Main Bout.

<. Friends of Peterson, the Norwegian champion, who held Ventres to a draw in their recent time limit bout, are confident that their man will prove his superiority over the "Berlin Black smith, next Saturday night. There are many New Britain followers of wrestling who are of the same belief, and in waging their long green, the Norway boy is being placed as the fla vorite. During the sixty minutes that the Nentres- Peterson match was ln progress not a dull minute occurred. and both men showed that they are past masters at the game by extr!cat- ing themselves from seemingly impos- sible holds.
 Vent tres. believes, in a finish match, he can defeat his older opponent. He bases his claims on the condition of each man at the end of one hours battling, which showed that he was the fresher of the two at the end. It can be seen that the coming battle is being seriously considered by the grapplers. The Berlin friends of Ven- tres will as in the past pin their mon- ey faith in their fellow townsman. The first bout will commence at 8:3D o'clock and the same excellent manner of running off the show that prevailed In the past will be taken care of by the management.

New Britain will have a represen- tative in the exhibition, in Young George. the "Terrible Armenian who takes on Pat Mccarthy, the conquer for of Kid Benjamin. George, first appeared before a local crowd on the evening that Ventres fiopped Benja- min, having as his opponent on that occasion Harold Burnham of New Haven, conceded to be one of the best lightweight wrestlers in the state. The bout resulted in draw, neither man being able to force his opponents shoulders to the mat in the specified thirty-minute limit. McCarthy's fame is spreading with leaps and bounds. and his defeat of Benjamin placed him in line for matches with top notchers. but not of the Plainvllle boys type.
