Rickard Takes
Over Big Fight
From Partners
Brady and Cochran Agree
to Withdraw From Pro-
motion of Title Bout
By w. o. Mcclellan

/ Tex Rickard announced last night
that he would meet William A. Brady
tomorrow to take over the interests
of Brady and Charles Cochran, the
English promoter, in the half million
dollar corporation organized to pro-
mote the Dempsey-Carpentier bout
said that attorneys representing Brady
had agreed to the transfer and that
Brady has the power to act for Coch-
ran. The American theatrical magnate
has put himself on record as being
ready to withdraw from the bout
AS to the Dempsey Willard bout,
and how, Rickara declared that he had
no definite ideas as yet. He might pro-
mote it alone and he might promote
it in the United States.
Jack Kearns, manager for Dempsey,
arrives here tomorrow, but he will
have no part in the conference. Rick
acted in good faith in the matter of the
posting Of forfeits, and that the new
corporation, which will be formed when
Brady and Cochran turn over their
interests, will have the same rights to
enforce the fighters to comply with
the terms of the contract as the three
original promoters.
Will Suggest New Agreement
The original contract calls for the
promoters of the bout to have ready
a purse of half a million dollars be-
fore the boxers step into the ring. Of
this, 100000 is to 60 to the heavy
weight champion, and 100000 to Car
pentier: 1t is quite probable that Rick
ard will suggest new agreement by
which the boxers will fight on per-
centage basis. He has the notion that
they will be ready to do this.
If Rickard becomes sole possessor
of the contract with the boxers he has
the offer of the Canadian syndicate
for 100000. If this offer is thoroughly
on the up and up it is the biggest
sum ever offered for boxing bout.
AS to the Dempsey Willard bout
Rickard declared that he expected to
make some definite announcement as
to time and place this week. 1t is
quite probable that the original date,
March II, and the original site, Madi-
son Square Garden, will have to be
abandoned because of the limit set on
the price of admissions for boxing
bouts in the State of New York.
May Postpone Willard Bout
This bout probably will have to be
postponed until the summer, when it
can be fought in some open air place
with seating capacity that will per-
NIT staging it at the SIS limit. Rick
ard is confident that it will draw q
record crowd because of the dramatic
interest in the big Willard trying to
come back" Moreover. the beaten
Willard seems to be more popular
person than Dempsey, the heavyweight
champion.
Rickard does not believe that the
interest in the Dempsey Carpenter
bout has waned in the slightest, despite
the dispute over the original contract
The poor showing of Dempsey against
Brennan has reused belief that the
pollu boxer might have chance.
Sntii that the opinion in the United
States was that Carpenter wo1ld be
merely victim.

Innovation Among Races Ar
ranged for This Season;
Practice to Start Soon

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Jan. 29.-

scholastic regatta, May Id; triang
lar race with Princeton and Cornell

and Pennsylvania will be the first and
second varsity events, but the fresh

The interscholastic regatta is an in
novation and will probably prove the
largest gathering of school crews ever

will compose the events of the regatta
with Harvard.

Yale Plans InterschOlastic

Syracuse May Lose 4 of
Her Cham piOu Oursn,en

SYRACUSE, N. Y, Jan. 29.-When
candidates for Syracuse University
crews report for their initial meeting
on Monday there will be counted
among the absent several men who
Coach James A. Ten Eyck had hoped
would be available for his var
sity boat this year. Several unfore-
seen circumstances have deprived the
veteran mentor of much valuable ma
terial, and now he faces the prospect
of rebuilding the eight which last year
won the intercollegiate championship
on Cayuga Lake.
Possibly four oarsmen and the
coxswan of the winning boat will not
be available. George Busch, who was
elected captain for 1921, left school be-
fore the end of the first semester to
accept position in international COM
merce, being stationed IN South africa.
Gallagher, who rowed No. 7 last year,
Is still in college, but has not entirely
regained his strength, sapped as a re-
suit of football accident last fall.
Howard Hooplc, No. d, and one of
the greatest oarsmen in the history of
the school, has only now left the cane
he has used since he was injured in the
Holy Cross football game last fall.
Hoople, though he might be available
for another year on the crew, has been
| declared not eligible because he has
had one degree. Nicholson, No. 9 last
year, is contemplating move that will
make crew work impossible for him,
| and Jordan, coxswain, has been grad
uated.
The four men left in the boat are
August Rammi, giant stroke; Alvin P.
Leskamp, No. 6; Grimshaw, No. 3, and
Paige, bow. These men will be the
nucleus about which Ten Eyck will
have to work. He has some veteran
material available from the junior
crew of year ago, and one or two
men from the freshman boat. Among
the most likely looking men is Clash,
who stroked the Green. Clash can row
on either side Of the> shell. Decker,
who rowed at No. in the freshman
boat in 1918, apd who has not been in
the game since, will report again, and
with Olson and Winter, of last years
crews, should be able to find a place in
one Of the boats.
Ten Eyck has no idea of how much
freshman material is to be available
this year, because Syracuse, unlike so
many other rowing schools, has no fall
practice. The willy old coach, who
seems to grow younger with years, is
looking for a large squad, however,
The men will work on the machines
for several weeks before going to the
boathouse on the Barge Canal for the
real work. Only two events have been
scheduled for the Orange navy.

Mcdallist Beaten
In Final Round
On Florida Links

ST. AUGUSTINE, Jan. 29.-Woe to
the golfer who wins the qualifying
medal in tournament. He may think
he can turn the trick of wishing on
the first and last rounds of the meet,
but any Scotchman will tell you it
can't be done, as rule. Donald Clark,
of West Virginia, medal winner of
the first tournament of the season, af-
ter fighting his way clear to the final
round, lost out in his last stand.
William A. Knight, former Florida
state champion. was his conqueror by
a score of up and 2 to play. Knight
rightfully earned the spols. He fin
ished one stroke behind Clark in the
qualifying round, and since Tuesday
he has been coming along rapidly.
To-dav, in defeating the West Vir
ginian, knight played excellent golf.
Especially was. his short game we'll
the fact that he was laying his ap-
proaches dead in practically every oc-
casion. Clark, in spite of this, made
gallant fight of it to the sixteenth
hole.
At this point Knight dropped his tee
shot within four feet of the pin and
clinched the match. Both contestants
get off together, halving the first and
the second holes. At the third Clark
laid his approach dead and got par 4,
while knight consumed three shots in
reaching the green.
They halved the next two holes and
then at the sixth Clark increased his
lead to 2 up when knight missed his
putt. The local player got back hole
at the eighth, getting deadly ap-
proach while Clark was missing his
putt.
The West Virginian drove into the
lake, at the ninth, giving his opponent
the lead at the turn. Coming in, hoy
ever, he squared the match at the
tenth, when knight took three putAs.
But the St. ~Augustinan got back the
lead at the eleventh, when Clark took
an extra putt. He went to up at the
thirteenth and thereafter was never
headed.
The cards were as follows:
