Justice Guy Will Appoint
Two Receivers for Rickard

Following decision which he made
last Saturday in connection with the
suit of Frank c. Armstrong to have
himself declared partner in the enter
prises which are being conducted at
Madison Square Garden by Tex Riclard,
Justice Guy OF the Supreme Court will
within the next few days appoint two
receivers to handle the financial anil
other affairs of the Rickard companies
until the issues between Armstrong and
Rickard have been cleared up by a
judgment.
The motion for rcceivershfp was
made late In October as part OF an
action which Armstrong began against
Rickard almost a year ago, alleging that
money he had lent Richard and assist
ance OF other kinds given him over a
period OF ten years entitled him TO a
share in the profits OF the Madison
Square Garden business. Armstrong is
partner of Blair & Co. Of "a Broad
street. Rickard denied that he owned
Armstrong anything and a motion for a
receivership was made upon the ground
that Rickard was about TO take the az
sets OF his enterprises out Of this juris-
diction.
IN granting double receivership
yesterday Justice Guy also refused TO
strike from the record OF the action af-
fidavits complaining that on Novem-
Der while Armstrong was watching
boxing bout at the garden Rickard as
saulted him and tried to kill him. The
motion to strike the affidavits out was
made on the ground that whether Rick
ard tried to kill Armstrong did not
affect his right to handle the receipts
OF the garden. Justice Guy held that
the allegations were material.

Sunday Basketball Players
Are Discharged in Court

Magistrate Alexander III. Geismar
held in the Fifth Avenue Court. Brool,-
lyn. that charging admission to a tas-
ketball game held on Sunday Is not a
violation Of the Sabbah law. Seven
players and promoters of basketball
games at Prospect Hall, who we're
served with surnmonses by police Of the
Fifth avenue station. were arraigned in
court and discharged.
Magistrate Geismar held that the
peace or repose OF the Sabbath had not
been disturbed. Prior to April 10, 1919.
he said. such games and charges of
admission fees would have been in viola
ton of the law. but the Legislature
amended the Sabbath law at that time,
allowing baseball games on Sunday to
which admission fees could be charged.

Cont Take Our Money
Saws Ruth in Washington.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-"Well, just let
il go at that for the present" Babe
Ruth declared to-day when informed
OF the decision In Chicago OF Judge
Landis depriving him Of his share OF the
worlds series money and suspending
him until May 20, 1922.
The ball player was Informed OF
Judge Landiss decision in his dressing
room at local theatre while preparing
for his turn on the stage. He said he
could make no statement until he had
received the formal statement of Judge
Landis's action.s
However. he advanced the belief that
he could not be kept out OF his share OF
the worlds series money.
Ball players earn that" he said.

A. W. RILEY VICTIM
OF SQUASH UPSET
Hewitt Morgan Beats Him Un-
expectedly in Annual
Open Tournament.

Armin w. Riley. tenth on the national
ranking list. was the victim Of the first
upset In the National Squash Tennis AS
sociation's winter scratch tournament
at the Crescent Athletic Club yesterday
He went down to unexpected defeat at
the hands of Hewitt Morgan of the Har-
ward Club, racquet wielder who has
been more prominent in racquets and
court tennis than squash tennis. Morgan
played little serious squash until late
last season. but he indicated yesterday
that he is ready to take his place among
the leaders.
The Harvard man scored In straight
games 1915, 15--10. He set a swift
pace from the start and kept the ball
rafting around the walls at great speed.
but the real effectiveness OF his game
lay In his ability to bring his racquet
INTO play from every conceivable position,
and his superior control in the most i'm
portant Of the rallies. His game. too
was more versatile than that of his op-
ponent. He came up frequently to meet
the ball on the volley and sent the ball
scooting past Riley before the latter
Souiu IcCONeT Ills DO1Se. RE mixed
straight front wall drives with shots
into the corners, and particularly
toward the latter part of the match had
Riley outguessed.
1t took Morgan the greater part of the
first game to attain his best speed and
in the meantime Riley ran into an ap-
parently commanding lead. He held a
five point advantage until the score
reached 12-7. and then came a shift in
the tide. Morgan began getting more
sting into his returns and forcing a
swifter pace and Riley was unequal to
the task Of following suit. The Crimson
graduate won eleven OF the next twelve
points and the game at 1915 and then
took the second game at 1910. The
alert getting and long rallies made the
match spectacular.
Among the fourteen survivors are Ave
OF the first ten in national rank. They
are Auguste J. Cordier and Thomas
Coward of the Yale Club, r. Earl Fink
and Charles NJ. Bull, Jr., Of the Crescent
Athletic Club and Anderson Dana of the
Harvard Club. The summary:

SINNERS, HOOSIER
STAR, FOR GIANTS
Young Outfielder Brings $685.
600 and a Couple Of
Players.

Speoial Despatch 10 THE NEW York HERALD
BUFFALO, N. Y, Dec S. While the
Giants had no representation at the
minor league gathering to-day, officials
OF the Indianapolis club were on the
ground waiting for the arrival Of John
McGraw. who is due tomorrow The In
dianapolis club will complete deal with
the Giants whereby Ralph SINNERS. a
young outfielder who was with the
Hoosiers last season, will go South with
the Giants. and a couple Of Giants will
report to the Indianapolis team.
SINNERS was wanted by many major
league clubs, but the Giants had the in
side track on him. He is very fast, fine
fielder and q heady player. with a bat
ting average well above the 300 mark.
He is still q little raw. but looks like a
real fend. 1t is reported that $4,000
in cash is involved in the deal and that
Sallee is to be one of those added.
Miller Huggins has large and wicked
looking pruning knife all ready to swing
on some of his young men. He will re-
lease half a dozen. Hugeins was OBJ
served this afternoon sneaking out enc
OF the side doors with major league
manager in tow. A deal for pitcher Is
being framed.
Dick Hoblitzeli has cut himself adrift
from Reading and already has something
in prospect.
Billy Smith. manager OF Shreveport,
was in conference with Ed Barrow, try
Ing to convince the latter that after all
there was no place like Shreveport for
conditioning ball players.
Although there will be a general pow
WOW at this gathering. with many mat
ters discussed. there seems to be scant
possibility OF anything being done Of
f1cially about the restoration of the draft
in all Leagues.
This Is n matter for the leagues to de-
.ide as leagues. The three largest minor
leagues are opposed to the draft. and
there seems little chance OF any altera-
ton OF opinion within the next few
weeks or months. In the leagues. Of
course. there are managers and owners
who are in favor OF the rule. Indian

CLANCY Loses on a Foul.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 5.--For the sec
ond time within a month George
Chaney. the Baltimore southpaw, was
charged with defeat tonight when he
struck Freddy Jacks OF England with a
low blow. The finish to the bout. sched-
uled for eight rounds, came few sec
onds before the close of the second
round. There was no question about the
foul. 1t was q low blow. The club
physician produced the evidence to show
that the Engushman, who now resides In
Brooklyn, had been injured. Nor was
there any question that CLANCY deliv-
cred the wallop accidentally. Likewise.
Chaney's superiority over Jacks as far
as the bout had progressed was indis-
putable.

rule was known to all players. and
particularly to these men. upon one
of whom a fine was imposed in 1916

This situation involves not merely

The leading boxing event OF the week
will be staged tonight at the Pioneer
Sporting Club when Mike ODowd,
former middleweight champion, clashes
with Louis Bogash OF Bridgeport. This
should be an excellent contest. In fact.
any bout in which O'Dowd is a con-
testant Is certain TO be interesting.
Bogash Is said to be boxing better as
"a middleweight than he did as a welter.
and he Will need all his skill when he
faces O'Dowd.
