CALIFORNIA WON'T PLAY SYRACUSE

LOS ANGELES. Nov. 29,-The Uni versity of Southern California has refused to play the Syracuse football eleven here on Christmas Day. and Washington has been invited to meet the customers.
 Faculty members, the student body and the coaching staff joined in sign ing a statement to the Community Deyelopment association, an amateur body which is promoting the inter- sectional game, urging that the Uni- yersity of Washington be given the honor of meeting the eastern team, inasmuch as they had made better record on the gridiron this season than had the Trojans.
 An answer to the invitation for- warded Washington's athletic com mittee is expected Thursday.
 Syracuse, however, is understood to be reluctant to play Washington here, fearing that the game would take on aspects of professional con- test In order to avoid this, the Southern California student man agerial staff will be loaned to the local association so that the game may be staged under collegiate auspices. It is believed this will re- move Syracuse's objections.
 The action of the University of Southern California appears altruistic on the surxs. In football circles, however, it is known that the Tro- jans expect to have a better team next year. and desire to avoid an im- portant intersectional game when they are almost certain to be de- feated

Firpo Says He Will Fight Harry Walls


 BUENOS AIRES, Nov. 29.-Luis Angel Firpo announced Thursday that he had accepted a proposal to fight Harry Wills, the American ne- gro. He did not say when and where the fight was to take place or by whom it was to be promoted.
 Firpo's announcement is regarded here as a bit of advertising, probably sent out under instructions from his business advisors in New York, who have lately been much cheered by the publicity that Firpo has worked up for himself in American papers at a distance of thousands of miles. Wills has said he will not fight Firpo in South America, where he would have to murder Firpo in order to win the decision" Firpo had plenty of opportunity to sign to fight Wills when he was in New York, but lodged the proposition every time.
