Against Pal Moore or Earl
Puryear.

BALTIMORE, Feb. 1S.-Unless his
ideas of q reasonable purse are great
ly inflated, Jimmy Wilde. sensational
English flyweight, may come to this
city to engage in fistic combat. A
stipend OF decided atractiveness is to
be made the idol OF the British Isles
to test his English grit" against eth

pair of prominent bantams who collide
head-on in a twelve-rounder before
the Peerless Athletic Club at AL
baughs Friday evening. To confer
with Dave Hughes, managerial boss
of the renown Jimmy. Matchmaker
Al Fried, of the Peerless Club, will
be at the ringside tomorrow evening
when the far-famed foreigner tackles
Mickey Russell in an eight-rounder at
Jersey City.
Memphis Pals historic battles with
the little Britisher are too well
known to dwell upon, but IL is not
generally known that Puryear missed
only by a fraction Of landing a con.
test with the flyweight king.
There promises to be plenty of ex-
citement when Battling Dundee, the
Fighting Wop OF this city, and Joe
Swartz. Wsshington's fast and hard
hitting bantam, get together in the
semi wind-up OF eight rounds to the
Moore-Puryear fuss. Following their
whirlwind encounter of several weeks
ago, when the clever lad from the
Capital wrested the verdict, Dundee's
friends have insisted that he meet the
Senator in return engagement
/ When Dundee made what appeared
to be ridiculous weight demand,
there was some talk that he didn't
care for any more OF the Washington
ians game, but this was dispelled
when the local man consented to the
arrangements which made another
bout between the pair possible. Those
who witnessed tho last mill between
these rival bantams predict their
bout will be one OF the most exciting
of the Peerless Clubs program.

final. he said, Notwithstanding the
many articles appearing in the daily
papers to the contrary
THE death OF Mrs. Baker" he says,
has killed all chances of me ever
playing baseball again. There has
been more or less talk throughout the
country about my palying this year

state for me that there Is no possible
chance OF me DOMINIC the uniform.

where Babe Ruth now sits, he can
demand contract of the so-called
iron-clad variety. 1t has no ten days
notice clause. in il. Therefore. IL
Babe Ruth breaks an ankle on April
III. you may be sure that the New
York club will be stung for the en-
tire amount of Ruth's contract, even
IL he Is never again able to play
ball game. SITS safe bet that
neither Ruth nor any other player in
our ken would think of releasing a
club from such a contract. However,
this same Ruth didn't hesitate in
breaking his contract with Frazec.
That was different, he probably said.
There is no telling what is going to
happen to the game this season.
Prices have been raised everywhere.
The fans have yet to be heard. They
may rally to the higher-priced base
ball, even II 1t does lack the required
polisht But II they don't, the clubs
are going to be hit hard right in the
old pocketbook.
II. tho clubs are hit hard enough,
they. may decide to retrench consider
ably before another season starts.
This means that many salaries will
be cut. Here and there some player
will Quit; but most OF them will take
the cuts because they know nothing
else Will pay them as well as base
ball.
It's Mostly All Bunk.

business brains displayed by major
