PARIS, March II There are signs
that real effort at last in being made
by 'he peace plenlpoten,iarles TO
tackle concrete questions, and there
are also further indications Of the
danger OF continued delay. So lar as
ihc peace delegates have been given
a very large degree ot confidence by
their respective peoples and parlia-
mcn,s But the debate which has been
proceeding in the French chamber OF
deputies and the growing volume OF
questions at Westminster are re-
rninders that the patience Of the people
is not lnexhauStble
In the case Of that gdchate Il is
clearly seen how deep is the anxiety
of France a' TO the course OF the
peace negotiations.
Mr. Franklin Bouillon president OF
The chamber committee on foreign al

rate near completion. He did so at the
unanimous request OF this important
parliamentary commlt,ec He began
hy pointing ont that the silence OF
the government with regard to peace
was in no way justified BY its re-
suits and that sterile discussions were
leading 10 very grave diSquiet, c,.
peclally in view OF the fact that Ger

frankly declared that the peace dele.
cation OF France had been chosen
more with the idea OF mSurlng docll-

The methods adopted by the peace
conference he criticised with vigor
and there can be no question that
his remarks were well received by
the chamber as whole. lie reminded
The house that alter the armistce
there were two questions which pre-
occupied French minds, The first
was that OF the eastern frontier and
the relation between France and Ger
many which ought to have first in
the discussion and settlement. A
second question which was equally
important was that OF the financial
settlement which was alI-lmportant IN
order that the ordinary economic lie|
could be resumed. Then came the re
organization Of the world and the
league OF nations.

The most distant problem, that OF

power undoubtedly awaits further
development. He had the small

he has a fieroer fighting face than

Fast as Lightweight.
He is as fast as lightweight, and
his footwork is we'll nigh perfect.
He can turn and twist and duck like
a veteran.
On the offense he has left hand

with heavyweight in generation.
He seems to have a wonderful

it much on Kinley. If he develops

Manager Of Wi'de's
Conaueror Deluged
With Fight Offers

New York. Dec. 2z.-Toe Wagner,
@,anagei of the hard-hitting Jack
;harkey, who outpointed jimmy
Wilde in 10 rounds recently, is beng
leluged with offers. On one day
ecently he received three kilograms,
a which he was asked to state his
.erms for the appearance OF his
,rotege ~ limited bouts in as many
western cities. Milwaukee, where he
,oxed Wilde, wants him again, and
Cincinnati. Detroit and Cleveland
IRE anxious to put him against the
native sons.
Sharkey got a nice piece Of change
ior his e,,ght-round bout with Patsy
Johnson, at the Newark Sportsman $
lub. on December p. The purse
$ the Ia 'gest Sharl:ev has ever re-
.eived. He used to fight for $3.50,
500 and $3.50, the latter amount al
most the largest, but Promoter
Dave Mackay had to come across
with almost five times as much as
$3.50 to sign Sharkcy. The aggres-
sive little Italian received something
like 5000 for his end in the Wilde
engagement.
Wagner is thinking seriously of
taking Sharkey to England in ad-
vance of Wilde and have him show
the British sportsmen how he ship
ped their idol in America. Wagner
has been in cable communication
with promoters abroad, but he will
not take out passports until he is
satisfied with monev considerations.

Omaha Quintets Win
From Out-Of-T Town
Teams on ''Y" Floor

Two hard-fought games were
staged at the Y M. c A. last night
and Omaha, represented by the
Pearl Memorials and H. r. Bowens,
carried off the winning honors, the
Pearls beating the First Christians
of Council Bluffs, present champions
OF the Church league, by the score of
2 to Is, and the Bowens coping
one from the Woodbinc Ia, squad,
80 to Is.
At no time were the Omaha
squads in danger Of losing, both the
Pearls and the Bowens taking the
lead in the early stages of the game
and holding it safe. The First
Christians and Woodbine were out
classed by their opponents, but nev-
ertheless put up game fight
throughout.
To Ernie Adams. left forward, and
George Parish. left guard. goes the
credit OF the Pearl victory, as these
two stars scored the majority of the
points, Adams making a total of Is
points. and Parish eight. The play
ing of Boodwin and Burkhardt also
eatured for the Pearls.
Root, right forward for the Furni-

BY FRANCIS oUIMET.

have just finished reading a story
from the pen of an English expert
to the effect that their great golf
trio-Vardon, Taylor and Braid
are slipping. Offhand 1 should say
that this critic has become unneces-
sarily alarmed and is but following
British custom when their idols in
sport fail to come through, as this
triumvirate failed to come through
this past season, of setting up wall.
l never could find out why the
English are so prone to wall at the
first failure of sport idol. Yet we
know that recently when Carpenter
knocked out their heavyweight
Beckett so quickly they were dumb
founded. So it is in golf since
Mitchell and Duncan. far younger
players. won most every title from
the Big Three this past season. The
English Immediately thought the lat
ter were done. ~
Their alarm dates back to the time
when Taylor, Braid and Vardon fail
ed to qualify in the News of the
world tournament. OF course this
was an unusual and unexpected re-
suit. But these three players cam
not repel the onslaughts of the
younger golfers always and the
sooner the English realize this the
more will be their enjoyment of
golf.
No Cause For Alarm.
There is really no cause for alarm
over the play of England's triumvir
ate. If my memory serves me right
they have between themselves won
l6 of the past 21 championships.
Their successes date as far back as
the early COS. They have been COM
peting some 80 years. Each is at
least 50 years old.
During the war there was little
golf played by anyone in England:
But the younger boys like Mitchell
and Duncan were engaged in the Sc
rious business of war. Consequent
ly, upon their return to the links,
they were keyed to concert pitch
and filled with enthusiasm for TAX
ing up the game. | always maintain
that an enthusiastic player will per-
form better than one who lacks this
keenness for competition.
Now the Big Three lacked just
what the younger golfers of Eng
land possesses-enthusiasm. AS |

New York, Dec. 27-Another Bob

New York, Dec. 27.-Another Bob
Fitzsimmons has flashed across the
pLgilistic screen. The 22-year-old
son of the famous heavyweight,
Young Bob" as he styles himself,
in a small fight club in Newark some
days ago electrified many old timers
who saw his father at his best.
1t was the consensus of opinion
at the end of the eight rounds the
youth engaged in will, the veteran
Ed Kinlcy of Harrison that the heir
to the famous Fitzsimmons fighting
name was the superior of his father
in speed and on the defense.
Lacked Powerful Wallop.
The only doubt that seemed to
prevail was that he lacked that
"one-purch" finish his dad was able
to unwind on moments notice.
Young Fitz punched Kinley at
will. and at the end of the bout had
his man in a worse condition than
AL Roberts had him at West Side
park last tall, where the first knock
out of Kinley's long record was
chalked up.
If Fitz had not become so playful
with the helpless Kinley, hitting
him with the open glove and play

the neck and otherwise devoting
himself to boyish antics. He might

Herald team to Kansas City, they
have sufficient sum left in the
treasury 20 start the 1920 season off
in great style.
Players in Service. ..
Basket ball, during the year 1919,
failed to live up to its former
records, due to the fact that many
of the star players were still in the
service of Uncle Sam. Only stwo
leagues were in the field. The First
Christians of Council Bluffs carried
off the flag in the Church league,
while Commerce High school won
the honors in the Commerce league.
The city championship was not
played as the committee in charge
decided to do away with it.
Games Well Attended.
However, the games were we'll at
tended and taking all i'll considera-
ton the season was a successful
one.
In the amateur foot ball world
during the 1919 season, the Nonpa-
reils, under the leadership of Phil
Lynch, won the Class A champion
ship and also are the undefeated city
champions. not losing a game during
the entire season.
The championship OF Class B is
still undecided and both the Ak-Sar-
Ben Knights and the Fontenelles
Law claim to the title. In the game
for the title which was staged at
Fontenelle park, the. battle broke up
in a row, and although efforts were
made to bring the teams together for
another battle. It was unsuccessful.
The Class c championship was
Won by the Ak-Sar-Ben Knights
Juniors.
Expect Big Season.
Basket ball already is arousing
considerable interest, and in the
Church league, before the dawn of
the new wear will have arrived, each
team will have played twice. The
Commercial and Greater Omaha
leagues will open their season the
1rst week in January.
The Preseason league which held
the center of the stage during the
last few months at the Y. M. c. A.,
is practically responsible for the in
terest taken thus far this season in
the cage game. The Glendales won
the championship.
Amateur base ball during the year
of 1920 will no doubt be the best
season. Plans are already underway
to launch new association, prob
ably known as the Midwest ANA
teur Base Bali association. with
Omaha as its headquarters. The new
association, if formed. will take in
such cities as Omaha. Denver. Salt
Lake City, Los Angeles. Des Moines
and other western cities. Represen-
+atives. it is expected. will be sent
from Omaha to find out how these
c,ties stand on this proposition.
New Organizations Expected.
| Should the Midwest organiza-
ton be formed and Omaha as its
headquarters it will be a great thing
for this city
Since the interest in amateur foot
ball has been lacking in the past
wears, it is also ulanned to form
foot ball association here next year.
Skating tournaments and skiing
tournaments and clubs have been
formed by the Young Mems Chris
tian association and the City Recrea-
tion departments, and many skaters

of interest in these two branches of
outdoor winter sports.
