Bailey Won Fame As A Strong Man Before His
 Career On Mat Began
Binkley Said to Have Defeated Waldek Zbyszko in Handicap Match, and Bailey Credited With
 Draw Verdict With Joe Stecher

Sizing up the Binkley Bailey heavy weight wrestling match to be staged ct the Athletic club on Monday night brings out some interesting facts concerning both principals.
 Binkley has to his credit a win over Waldek zbyszko, in a 75 min ute handicap match. Binkley not only ran out the full time but never allowed his opponent to get behind him, Bailey, on the other hand, has withstood Joe Stecher for 90 min ntes and, according to press reports of the match. gave the Nebraskan more trouble breaking holds than he was able to secure on Bailey.
 While a handicap match usually puts one of the men on the defensive, Bailey, according to the report of his battle with Stecher, carried the bat sle to the ex-champion throughout

Frenchman Will Not Hare an Easy Time,
 Critics Say
By SPARROW M,GANN

| Special Correspondent of The Age Herald Copyright. 1922. by The Age-Herald)
 New York, January 7.-Every sporting man in the country from the Everglades to Sltl1a from Santa Mon ica to Coney Island, will have his lamps trimmed for a flash across the 1 old Atlantic next week, where in London. on Thursday night, Georges Carpenter is going to fight hrs first | battle since he and Jack Dempsey pushed their fists at each other in Jersey City last summer. George COOK or Australia, newly-risen heavyweight, will be his opponent.
 In a message received today from London Horny Dime the western sporting man, says the British are not betting their heads off on the coming battle. They want 2 to 1. If those who fancy Carpentier were loosening up to that extent there would not be a great deal doing. since even ? to 1 does not hit the Johnny Bulls as very attractive proposition.
 Georges in Shape
 An a stall about Carpentiers con dition," says Dime. "He will be right when the time comes. Saw Cook yes terday. big boy, strong: can prob ably take it. Not too clever"
 It will be 2 good thing for Cook if he can take it. For a time will come in the battle next week when he will have to. Just one. That is Carpenters plan of battle. He will mush along, slashing out with wal lops and getting lot in return, es- peciaily in close fighting, and then when everything is just right--bam: That is the way he worked .t with Dempsey. The trouble was that Dempsey was able to take the kick. pound more power in that right would have started and shook Demp- sey ana he would have sat down on the ring floor. Two more pounds and he would have laid down for prooably nine count. Two pounds and half and all the little birdies or jersey City would have been sing ing sweet nothings in Jacks ears.
 Must Survive Right
 To win, Cook has to survive that right of Carpentier's He will get It sooner or later. on the button. If ne lives through it he may mush up the Frenchman and get away with the well known laurel wreath. Over In England they think Carpenter is much more clever than Cook, but keen American critics hold that in this event Cook must be a dub, in- deed, because they do not regard the light heavyweight champion of the world as extremely scientific. In support of this opinion they point to Carpenters habit of leading so often with his right. Of course, that is bad medicine for the average fighter, for almost any fighter, in as much. as 1t leaves him open for a grand old sock; but Carpenter has been doing 1t all his life and thriving on 1t. He did it with Dempsey and got away with it. When Dempsey de- ivered the first of the finishing blows in the big fight, it was lead nd not a counter.

Caddock. Burns, Stecher and many ot the leading mat artists were reared on the farm and their early u aiming was confined to the hard outdoor life.
 Bailey is elassed among the lead ing grapplers In the country today Bailey has ben before the public for a number of years, but as a strong man instead of a wrestler. Only in recent years was he lured into the mat game, owing to his strength and the fact that he was successful as a grappler when in hls home town. At 21, Bailey lifted 312 pounds dead weight, later pushed a 275 pound bar bell above his head and raised $500 pounds with a back lift. He was a member of the Saxon Brothers, of the t01 Ranch, as a strong man. and for several years filled circus and vaudeville engage ments as n weight litter.

Auburn Quint Lacks Material But Is
 Working Hard

Auburn, January Especial J. With lack of material staring him in the face. Coach Hutsell Is back hard at work trying to get his quin- tet into shape for the coming grind.
 Barks and Hahn, two main cogs in the five, for the past four years, are missing from their forward berths this season. McFadden is missing from center while Lassiter, Wade and Mandy are all lost so far the the 1922 cage team Is concerned. Hahn is in Atlanta playing with the Atlanta Athletic club. while Mandy is play ing with the Birmingham Athletic club.
 Fred Hahn, who substituted for his brother last year, is one of the main stays of this years quintet, and is playing forward in fine form. He possesses good shooting eye and Is more than ordinary in the guarding game.
 Although not a letter man from last years team, Capt. Fred Harrison is holding down the center position nicely and should develop rapidly under Hutsells coaching.
 Dudley seems to be the most promising man for forward, while Hill and Duke have shown excep- tional ability as guards. Thigpen. all though only youngster, has shown up well and can be counted upon to fill up a hole at one of the guards if necessary. Auburu has a very hard schedule this season and this is made doubly so because most of the members of the team are only youngsters.
 The 25 to IT defeat handed to the locals by the Camp Benning team has not disheartened the Auburn lads in the least. and believe that they will be the ones to hold the large end Of the scores in the future.
