TEX RICHARD
INDICTED; OUT
AS APROMOTER
Latest Scandal News Involves
Famous Matchmaker-Re-
signs, Report States.
WELLMAN MAY GET JOB

NEW YORK, Feb. 16.-George L. (Tex)
Richard, nationally famous sport pro-
moter, today was indicted by the grand
jury on q statutory charge brought by
the Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Children. The charge grew
put of testimony given by young girls.
Richard is the manager and match
maker of Madison Square Garden and 1t
was reported that he handed in his resig
nation today. John Ringing, circus
proprietor, was elected president of the
corporation controlling the Garden, it
was said. 1t was also reported in sport
eircles that Billy WeIlman, formerly Of
indianapolis, will succeed Richard as the
hew matchmaker at the Garden.
Two indictments were voted against
Richard. Each contains three counts.
They were based on the testimony Of
Alice Ruck and Sarah Schoenfeld, 10
Fear-old girls.
These girls say that Richard lured
them to his office in the tower of Madison
Square Garden, which was formerly the
studio of Stanford White in which
parties-described in the famous Thaw
trial-occurred.
They also allege he took them to an
apartment house on East Fortieth street.
Richards attorneys were notified to
have him to appear in the Supreme Court
at once to plead to the charges. He is
already out on $4,000 bail, which he
supplied when first arrested.

Ruth Closes Stage Act and
Gets Ready to Start Spring
Training.

NEW YORK, Feb. 16.-Though he
hasn't signed for 1922, Babe Ruth ap-
parently has a fairly accurate idea Of
where he stands with the Yankee club.
Otherwise he would hardly abandon his
vaudeville tour at this time, with APP
prOxlmately three months Intervening be-
fore he can appear in a championship
game.
Ruths decision to close his vaudeville
tour Saturday night in Milwaukee is not
surprising because he will need to get to
work right away If he is to be featured
in the first exhibition game, which is
scheduled for March II at New Orleans.
Up to a week or two ago Babe contem-
plated extending his tour and deferring
training operations until April Some
thing has happened to make him avail
able for the March exhibitions in the
South.
Bambino announced his plans in a
letter received at the Yankee offices yes

this week and leaves for Hot Springs
Monday.
