New York, Jan. l0.--Johnny Buff, worlds bantamweight champion and American hyweight title-holder, will not consider offers for ring engage ments until he returns from his trip to England.

scout Discovers Weak Place in Op-
 poncnt's Line

Columbus. O., Jan. l0.---Now that the 1921 football season is history it is permissible to relate how Ohio State defeated one o' its strongest foes last fall due to a slight weakness in one Of the men picked by Walter Camp for his first All- American eleven. The slight deficiency was discovered by on Ohio State scout.
 In early games one of Ohio States scouts noted that this player has q disposition to leave his position on the line to help back up another part of the forward wall which was weaker. A trick play was drawn up and, true to advance dope, at n critical moment this athlete was far out of his place ond the winning play was shot through the hole where he should have been.

Fans Anxious to See POrta and
 Monsees Quintets in Action

At the present time there appears to he a possibility that the basketball quintet's captain last season by Louie Porta and Frederick Gus" Monsees will clash at the State Armory next Saturday night as the preliminary to the New Britain Meriden kaccys state league game. Followers of the knceys will remember the battle the Porta- Monsees quintets staged last season. If was one of the most Grotnsque af- fairs ever attempted in local athletic circles.
 Opinions Differ
 Plenty of arguments have been en- gagged in since that time as to which is the best or worst team of the two. Porta maintains that his beauties are the goods, while Monsees the weighty leader of the 1921 victors is confident that his pets will be victorious if an other battle is staged. Claims and counter claims Of each team being afraid of the other is heard frequently.
 Monsces Fine Guard
 Should the battle materialize, it is probable that Captain Monsees will pin his faith in the ability Of Rhene Bar deck to fill the baskets with scores. From versatile standpoint. Bardeck is a wonder, having brought the Kaceys cheering squad up to the high est standard both with his vocal and personal abilities. With Captain Mon- sees playing a guard position, Porta's team will encounter considerable difh- culty in breaking down Fred's per feet defense, it being said that the Stanley Quarer boy holds the honor of being able to cover the most floor of any player on either team in a seated position.
 Porta Is Silent?
 Captain Porta, with his usual dis play of silence, has got the opposl- tion worried. and should arrangements be completed for the game, Louie may spring something of surprise. Some of the possibilities of engaging in game are Frankie McConn, Bill Fitz- patrick, Johnny Doyle, Harold Camp bell, and a number of others who do not play the game any better than these men.

On their return home they. took
slightly different routes near vi

reached Americas a telephone cali
came to DR.. Riley from Mr.. Kersey
stating that his car had thrown a rear
wheel and asking that repair man
be sent. The repair man was dis
patched and the delayed party reach
ed home about midnight.
During the long wait the quartet
had built fire by which to keep
warm and pass away the time, and
most of the time was put in singing
gospel hymns from the books they
had carried with them to the singing
in the afternoon. The echoes
through the Dooly woods are said to
have resembled a camp meeting.
