Tex Takes O6er Interest of Two
 Fellow Promoters

New York, February 2S.-Tex Rick ard, boxing promoter today took over the interests of William A. Brady of New York and Charles H. Cochrane of London in the worlds heavyweight championship match between Jack Dempsey and Georges Carpenter, which the three promoters originally agreed last November to stage in 1921.
 At the same time that Rickard handed to the attorney for Brady, Cochrans New York representative, a check for $66,666.66, representing Bradys and Cochranes share of the $10o,o0o posted by the promoters on signing the papers, he announced of ficially that the match would be held Saturday, July 2.
 Rickard announced however, that the location for the bout, which was to have been made known tomorrow, had not yet been selected, and that he had asked the two boxers for a 30 days extension lSa
 Richards action today in taking over the other promoters interests followed a controversy over the lquestion of whether all parties to the |contract had potsed forfeits. This controversy subsequently, gave way to question of whether Brady and Coch- rane desired to go through with the deal and Richards announcement that he stood ready to relieve them of their obligations if they so desired.

BIRMINGHAM GIRL IS STAR IN BASKETBALL
 GAME AT MONTGOMERY

Montgomery, February 8.-(SpeciaL)- In hard fought and exciting game, the Woman's college basketball team tonight defeated Central college 16 to IA. Wom- ans college, after getting away to big lead in the first two periods, came near losing the contest in the final due to the whirlwind attack offered by Central and probably, if time had not overtaken the visitors there might have been a different score
 Miss Louise Branscomb of Birmingham played a spectacular game for Womans s college. In the final period she sustained a severe injury to an arm, and although she was advised to leave the game, she remained and it was through her passing
 in this period that really saved the game for the winners. Miss Vaughn and Miss Bertha Painter played well for Central. By winning tonight's game, Woman S college claims the championship, having played all season without a defeat. The lineup:
 Woman's College-Pugh and Bonner, forwards; Branscomb and Maddox cen ters; George and Park, guards. Central-J. Painter and Vaughn, for wards; Newton and B. Bonner, centers; B. Painter and Truitt, guards. Referee-Patterson (Auburn).

KENTUCKY TO MEET GEORGIA INV FINALS OF CAGE TOURNEY

Atlanta, February 2S.-Kentucky State won in the finals of the Southern Inter- collegiate Athletic association basketball tournament here tonight by defeating Mississippi A. & M, 2S to 13. The game was a hard-fought, fast contest, won by the Kentuckans by superiority in goal shooting.
 The Kentucky Mississippi game pre- ceded one between Georgia and Georgia Tech to decide the other finalist.
 Attendance has been comparatively small during the tournament but tonight the huge auditorium was filled to ca pacity with crowd estimated at 5000, probably a record for southern basket ball.
 It was not the game between Ken lucky and Mississippi which preceded that between the Georgia institutions. and not simply a basketball tournament that drew the crowds. but the fact that for the first time in two years by the chance of pairing, Georgia and Tech, an- cient rivals. were meeting again in ath- leticS
 The two branches of the state educa- tional system severed athletic relations in 1913 after trouble at a basketball game. Both student bodies. with bands. added to the din as the teams contended, but the only outbreaks. were those of rival cheer leaders. Georgia took the lead and at the end of the first half the score stood Il to 8. Both teams were missing many goals as well as foul goals but were fighting hard. In the end Geor- gia made nine field goals and Tech five, the remainder of the points coming on goals from foul Georgia won, 26 to 21.

DUTCHMAN COULD SELL OVERCOATS INI HADES, SAYS SMITH
Atlanta MoguI Gets $750 on Trick Wire to
 Minors
By HENRY VANCE

Col. Quack Smith, proxy of the Ba- ronial outfit, has brought to light a deal which will further establish Choily Frank, Atlanta ate-president-man- ager as the David Harum of baseball. Now, to begin with, it must be admit ted that the dimensioned Dutchman has more antagonists than hooch--and that's saying a whole lungfull. (For both the enemies and the friends of booze try to kill it a fraction more than ever and anon.) Still, regardless of the fact that there are many in baseball who haven't any love for Cholly. they ali are willing to admit that he's about the foxiest gcof running 'ruOnd on ankles. The Baron boss was in a reminiscent mood yesterday. and he brought to light a trade which netted the Dutchman $75O when a few minutes before the deal had been effected, Cholly would have sold his chances for the first install- ment on paper of pins. The Atlanta club had in it's possession Razor Ledbetter, and the management and the elongated Razor had fallen into dispute about the constitutionality of certain club rules. By virtue of this argument Mr. Ledbetter had been sus- pended and fined. And, according to 1 Colonel Smith, MT. Frank had made up his mind to give the hurler his uncon-
  penny.
 l It so happened that Ledbetter's Sus- pension and Joe Thorburn's jump to the Million-Doiar league had left Frank Tn l 8 bad way for pitchers, so he had char | tered berth on cinder spreader and | had gone to New York to seek aid from | the Yankees.
 i Cholly was seated at headquarters of | the New York American league club when a messenger boy sauntered in and 1 fllpped telegram upon the desk of Colo nel Huston
 The Yankee owner noted contents Of the message, looked over his spectacies 1 at Cholly and said: Just got wire from a Carolina league club. They want us to let 'em have pitcher" | The Dutchman did some rapid-flre thinking and the machinery in his brain cells ground out a happy thought He | erinned He spat. He hitched up his 1 trousers Then he spoke. wire 'em you have Iedbetter and that | they can have him for s750." With this announcement, MT. Franks grin acreage increased
 Colonel Huston by this time was also the victim of the smile epidemic, and he followed out Cholly's suggestion.
 That afternoon the two were seated III l the office and another messenger boy sauntered in Chats characteristic or messenger boys) He Tipped another l yellow envelope upon the table.
 The Yank boss inserted paper knlre into the innards of the envelope anu ! pulled out the message.
 Carolina club says they'll take nlm' guffawed MT. Huston.
 Thus it happened that the willy Dutcn- man, by speeding Up his think tank TOT | this emergency situation, got S7a0 Tor a player he was about to cast aoriit as s' 1 free agent. ., ! The fact that Ledbetter appeared to be the property of big league cup srurred the Carolinians on toward buying him.

PANTHER DIAMOND
 PROSPECTS SEEM BRIGHT THIS YEAR
By BILL LADD

Spring time is here, and the crack or the bat and the ''thud'' of the ball land- ing more or less securely in the catchers mitt is thing of the present on Nun ger field. No longer will the flaming bees have to be held in the dormitories and the time has comef when all the tales told by the Partners during the off season about their ability will meet the acid test, and the great question will be decided, have they the stuff or have they not?
 The Partners of 1921 do not look like weak outfit, just to scan the list of those who have announced their intention or trying out for the team. While pre- season dope is a bad thing to rely on, the Partners is going to be hard animal to walk over this year.
 SHORT OF PITCHERS
 The big weakness is going to be in the hurling department. as the hurling ma- terial on the hill looks to be somewhat limited. The Panthers will miss the steady flinging of "Eppa Jeppa" Speer, who flung the pellet with so much suc- cess for the Owenton boys last year. lie is missing from the fold this year, and
 when the hassocks get crowded tnero
 will be several times when the Panther rooters will wish that he was out on the hill. First base, from a preseason view point, looks like 1t was going to De over supplied with occupants this year, as Joe Stuart and Jack Stuart are both initial sackers. However, there is chance or making Joe Stuart into flinger and let the other brand of Stuart hold down hrst There are several dubious. positions on the team and several of them around the keystone sack. It is practi- cally certain that Ava Baker of last years varsity, viii hold down either short field or the hallway station. Just who will have the hot corner under ils care is not yet known.
 THE OUTFIELD
 The outfield will once more feel the spiked hoofs of Mike" Norton, who IS player par-excellence, no matter whether it is football baseball or bas- ketbau Probably recruits will hold down the other pastures.
 The backstop business will fall to the lot of ''Greek" Griffin, ne who starred behind the pan last season for the Psn- thers. Greek" is a swell catcher and
 he ought to make good again this year. Having a catcher. finding someone to pitch to him is the next trouble. Joe Wheeler is about the only cer- tainty from last year, and he will have to have two or three teammates who can divide up the burden with him. Work has been dore on the Panther diamond, and it is in good shape for
 the athletes to do their work on. Pan
 ther hopes are running high of carry
 ing off the bacon in the Howard fracas
 this season, as they have already put
 it over the Baptists in the othef two
 branches of sport.

JOE LYNCH SHADES
 YOUNG MONTREAL

Detroit, February 2S.--Joe Lynch, bantamweight champion, and Young Montreal of Providence, fought 10 lively, rounds here tonight the show ing on points being about equal until the eighth round when Lynch put his opponent down for a count of eight. thereby winning shade, in the opin- ion of majority of newspaper men at the ringside.
 Montreal had little trouble reachirsy the champion with his left jabs and his defense was effective until Lyneh flocred him near the end of the eighth. Thereafter the champion had things his own way.
 Montreal weighed 11S and Lynch was a half pound lighter

 You could probably buy the Mill lion Dollar league for two-bits worth of soap wrapper currency. THE CALL OF THE CASH Eddie McDonald's change of mind about Joining the Wichita Falls outfit probably came about through Danny Clark. Danny spouted off story about getting $20o in one afternoon for a couple of home runs, and Eddie suddenly decided that the oil country was the place for him to play.
