F Fulton Stalled in Bout
 With Madden, He Got All
 The Worst Of H---McGann

pentier had signed to meet Ted (kid) Lewis in London in April didn't seem to disturb Tex Rickard today.
 You can't blame Carp for pick- inS up all the easy game he cdn find, do you?" he said. He will beat Lewis easily and get we'll paid for it."
 Do you think" Tex was asked. that this agreement means Georges won't come over here to fight Tom my Gibbons?'
 This question was all the more pointed because of the fact that TsN wired to Descamps and Carp, cou- graduating them upon the victory over George Cook, and saying that the fans were anXiously awaiting their appearance in this country.
 Haven't Answered Yet
 Neither man has answered TeXs cables. This might look as though neither wanted to commit himself fight the St. Paul walloper. But TcS doesn't figure it that way.
 f'l fully expect that Descamps ali Carp will arrive here next mon ,ih prepared to fight Gibbons in March he said. The big money is here ana there will be the big money for the Frenchman in that fight that he evsr dreamed of earning-outside, Of course the big Jersey City battle against Dempsey. No. l don't doubt their coming at all.'
 If Carp does come prepared to Go battle with Gibbons, there is some doubt that interest in the contest will be almost as keen as that mani fested over his fight against Demp- sey. Fans already are preparing to get that. if they do meet, Carp wi,l find it much more difficult to lay his right on Tommy than he did on Jack Dempsey.

New York, January 2l.-All tne fight fans are satisfied today that If Fred Fulton pulled a stall against Bartley Madden at the Garden last week, he didn't get away with his stuff In other words, Leo flyhi, Bill Brennan's manager, has refused to match his big knockerout against the lanky plasterer. So. all Fred gets-assuming he was holding back against Madden--is the report of pe- ing the biggest mistake that eVes tried to make people think he was championship contender.
 The way the insiders figured cat that Fulton Madden battle was that Fulton couldn't possibly be as bad as he looked. Why, honest, he gave the best imitation of crude amateur that has been seen in New York this year. He seemed not to know how 10 shoot his right. and his left was little better than ham hanging n a delica tessen window.
 They Say Fred Stalled
 So the wise guys figured 1t out that Fred had stalled and would show something as soon as the rush of big fellows to get into the ring with him began But there hasn't been any rush. Fulton Is just as hisn and dry as he was before he boxed Madden
 T don't think Fulton was stall ing" says Tex Rickard. "I think ne was simply bad that night-bad. Just the same, Leo Flynn won't match his big fellow, Brennan. against Full ton. I tried and fell down. What 8 the ahswer?
 The answer may be that Flynn, who is nobody's fool, is going 70 make capital of the good showing Madden made against Fulton by matching Brennan against Bartley. Now Madden is fine, game tr,al horse, but what Bill Brennan Is like ly to do to the New Yorker is plenty. Thus Brennan. by clustering the man who plastered the piasterer. namely Fulton. can, as it were. kill two birds with one stone In such cases as this we s .e where the clever match maker has i, 40 ways from the ace on managers who don't use their beans.

Major League Clubs Soon
 To Scatter Ouer Country
 To Start Spring Training

Athletics, are experimenting In Texas. They have been induced to go to Se- guin, town few miles from San Antonio. The White Sox have been noted for exploring around here and there, and not always with the most satisfactory results.
 Cleveland nt Dallas
 The Cleveland club trains at Dallas. It really isn't training. The team hangs around a good hotel 1 na city with plenty of amusement and the players fall into baseball habits by taking hard exercise for about four hours daily.
 The St. Louis Cardinals have the Texas habit. They train at Orange. It is a small city away down in the southeastern corner of Texas, so close to Louisiana that you can shake hands with 1t. The trouble with Or ange is that 1t is too near the Gulf of Mexico. The latter brings in winds and dampness. The St. Louis Browns train at Mobile, amid roses and she'll fish.
 The Chicago Cubs train on Santa Catalina Island. in the Pacific. de- spite the fact that many of the Or thodox trainers believe that only the best results are obtained in a dry cli- mate.
 Brooklyn, however. goes to Jack sonville, Fla, Washington to Tampa and Boston Nationals to St. Peters, burg, and all three are subject to the caprices of salt water weather. The Philadelphia Nationals train in Lees burg, Fla. in the center of the state. Ty Gives It Up Detroit had gone 10 Texas for a long time, but this year the Tigers will train at Augusta, Ga. There has been a feud between the Giants and the Detroits and Ty Cobb has aban- doned trying to stick it out at San Antonio. The New York Yankees will train at New Orleans and to almost every manager who has been there in recent years. that means practically no training, as the attractiveness Of New Orleans is such that ball players come around very slowly, and usually live so we'll that they fail to reduce their flesh much.
 Cincinnati will go back to Texas, but to different town than last year. The Reds will try Mineral Wells, which is not bad for location, although a bit windy. The Boston Americans and Pittsburg will train . as usual at Hot Springs, and both of them have about as favorable To- cation as any.

CLIFF BINKLEY TOI MEET DRAAK HERE
 THURSDAY NIGHT
Binkley Made Good Impress sion in His Recent Bout
 With Lewis
By MARVIN MCCARTHY

Cliff Binkley, after two highly successful appearances in Magic City rings. will try his luck a third time in wrestling match at the B. A. C. when he meets Tom DraakAthe Bel gian. in a finish bout Friday night
 Binkley, in his first appearance here. threw Farmer Bailey in two straight falls. His second bout was with strangler Lewis, one of the best matmen in the world today. Random was expecting the usual light work out for the veteran Lewis, but what a surprise fandom did receive! The confident Strangler came down to earth with jar when Binkley pinned his shoulders flat in 8 short time after the bout began. 1t was a dis concerted Lewis that left the mat to go to his dressing room after being forced to yield to a youngster like Binkley.
 Lewis won the second fall with a flying headlook. and Binkley's neck was so badly injured that he was unable to come back for the deoid- ing fall, so Lewis won the match on a technicanty.
 Draak Has wrestIed Here
 Tom Draak, the Belgian grappler, who meets Binkley at the B. A. c. Friday night, has wrestled in Bir- mingham several times. He is a big, husky fellow, one of the best built grapplers in the game today. He uses his bean as well as his muscle, and is considered pretty far up in tho mat game.
 Draak Is veteran nathan, and is rated among the topnotchers. He has lacked that indescribabIe some thing that goes to make champions, but he has put up some good matches in his day.
 Binkley and Draak are fairly well matched, and fans are looking for this bout to be one of the best of the season here.
 Binkley . Favorite
 Fandom always wants favorite to idolize, and Cliff Binkley seems well on the road to public favor ia Birmingham. His showing in the match with Bailey won friends for him, but when he had given Lewis so much trouble he won admirers by the score. The sight of the husky Strangler Lewis flat on his back with youngster astride his form was too much for the fans who saw the match, and the B. A. c. almost shook as cheer after cheer went up in honor of the new found mat king"
 A good preliminary list will pre- cede the Binkley- -Draak match, Tom my Tompkins says. Tommy has charge of this end of the match.

 New York. January 2f.-Before long now major league ball players and others who aspire to be wii turn their faces southward for SIX Weeks or more of conditioning to make them fit for the opening of the season. training bills will be heavier this year than ever, and 1t was estimated here today that at least SlI5'ooo would be spent by big league clubs fin this manner.
 A southern training trip Is not un- dertaken so much with the idea or actual training as 1t is to get the players in condition to play attract i've ball in the early part of the sea son. Almost all such trips are fol- lowed by reaction, and sometimes players of team which has been long time in the south are not much better off than if they had not made the Journey. However, If ball play CTS were put on the field in April without training they would be awk ward and clumsy, and while their muscles were getting fit for fast ball they would play so crudely the fans would be inclined to jeer.
 A Bad Year
 One time some major league clubs agreed dUuOH6 tlcliSSiNCc tnCy WOulu not send their players south. The United States never saw worse base ball than was played that spring. The players themselves had become flu rious at the "niggardly policy" of the owners. as they termed 1t, and made little effort to get ready.
 Connie Mack, having taken his Ath- letics as far south as they can go in the league standing. is going to take them about as far south as they can go on the map for training. He has announced that he will take them 10 Eagle Pass. Texas, just across the Rio Grande from Mexico. Truly baseball is being carried into Mexico and toward Mexico at rapid rate. Last fall two teams from Texas in- yaded Mexico. The teams were made up of young men who had played in the fast Texas league.
 The New York Nationals and both St. Louis clubs have gone as far south as San Antonio, and the Giants 20 back there this year. But San . Antonio Is resort and Eagle Pass Is on the frontier. For climate, Eagle Pass may have 1t on San Antonio.F It is much farther south, and in a re- zion where there are not many ad- verse winds and no storms to speak of

Mandy Shoots Several Field Goals in Sensational Fash ion-Morrison Again Jinx of SIagtoWn Quint

Atlanta. January 2l.-(Special.)- Iris said that when Long Louis" Morrison walks on basketball court in opposition to the Birmingham Athletic club, the major operation is completed. All that is left to be ac- complished are the final howls of tri- umph.
 He did this tonight at the audi torium and there wasn't even shout ing to do. The score was. Atlanta Athletic club 34, Birmingham Ath- letic 24, showing that the Atlanta Athletic club won by the length of the whiskers of the dog robber to General Trotsky. Of course. Alfred Scott was there, too.
 But Louis burst into the game in . blaze of glory. and when his team mates saw that he and his mustache were working overtime, they sat back and took 1t easy and won just about Rs they pleased, though the score didn't show 1t.
 The fact Is that Louis got tired about the middle of tho first half. Maybe 1t was because he hadn't before this season and maybe it was because he was carrying extra weight on his upper lip, but, anyhow. when the whistle sounded for the end of the first period of hostilities. he was ready to take the count and was flying distress signals for Tom Bryan. who was fresh from a barber shop, to come to his rescue.
 That's about all there was to the combat. The A. A. C.. saw 1t was fin on the ohin strap before Referee Yates had put the game under way. 1t Elided through the first half easi- ly with a perfect defense and ran up a lead of 21-S and then decided to call it day. Not a single athlete on the club roster. with tho exception of Morrison seemed to be taking more than . perfunctory interest in the game. though John Graves once or twice indu1ged in some persiflage with the Birminghamers.
 The Slagtown outfit rallied towards the last, until 1t seemed that the A. A. o. would have to step some to keep the score from being tied. The club had plenty in reserve. though. and when threatened pulled away nicely.
 Mandy, though, electrified the crowd on several occasions by shoot ing goals from impossible distances and angles. Lineup:

Howard College CagesterS Are Forced to Try Long Shots, and Fail to Make Many

University. January 2l.-(special, Following up their last nights vic tory, the Crimson qulnt defeated ths Howard aggregation tonight by the score of 26 10 1a The game fas very different from last nights. Both teams scored two points in the first minute of play. and for several min utes the score was lied. both squads playing hard and fast But the Grim sons soon pulled up safe lead and the outcome was never again in doubt. The Crimsons were not at their best in the first half. but kept the Bull dogs under control, the period end ing with the score 12 to 6. In the second half the Crimsons simply out classed, the Baptist boys. keeping the ball in their possession a large part of the time and passing it almost at will down the court.
 The close guarding of both teams kept the score down very low during most of the first half.
 Throughout the game the Bulldogs were forced to try long. ineffective shots, and Crews was not allowen 10 WIttk Nllt ild H1 NAth9AA Ae''~ night. The Crimsons depended more on short passes and short shots. Ex cesslve foullns somewhat marred the game. Bernier sent in his second string squad near the end of the game, and they held the Bulldogs scQreless till the end,
 The floor being unusually slick from the recent dances was somewhat of disadvantage to the players, but the game was kept at fast pace nevertheless.
 McGauley was one of the fastest men on the floor, and on both the de- fensive and offensive played bril- liant game.
 Slim Carter shot eight fouls out ot the 10 chances given him. and seldom Jailed to get the best end of the tip- off. The Crimson team was well bal anced and each man on the squad earned his share of the victory. Shores and stubbs were in the lime- light for the Bulldogs Shores per formed one of the most sensational feats of the game by beautiful shot from the center of the court.
