NEW YORK. March 17.-Tex
Richard has almost succeeded in
provoking fight between Tom Glib.
bons and Harry Wills in order to
ascertain which OF them has the bet
ter right to a match with Jack
Dempsey,
Paddy Mullins, manager Of Wills,
called on Richard Monday afternoon
and received an offer, said to APP
proximate $4,000 as Wills's end of
the purse for a fifteen-round scrap
with Gibbons at the Yankee Stadium
on May 20. This would be the star
bout Of the annual milk fund pro-
gram.
Mullins will give his answer
Wednesday.
Mullins still wants the Dempsey
match. but he has heard that Demp-
sey doesn't intend to fight anyone
until September. Wills doesn't In
tend to waste the summer and take
a chance on the collapse Of a bout
with the champion. Furthermore,
Dempssys own demands are such
that his opponent probably could
not expect moro than $4,000.
The reply Of Dempsey to the
ultimatum of the commission that
he accept or reject the challenge
of Wills has been received by the
commission and it was to have been
acted upon at the regular meeting
Of the commission today.
It Is probable, however, that ac-
ton will be postponed until Friday
because several members of the COM
mission will be marching on Fifth
Avenue in the st. Patrick's day
parade.

John McGraw's New York Giants,

Hugh Jennings directed the Giants
on the field while John McGraw,
New York manager. who was seated
in the grandstand. blinked in sur
prise at his big leaguers fell before
the Hoosier attack.
The Giants motored seventy-one
miles from Sarasota to get little
else than a beating. The attend

team received only small change in
gate receipts, much to the disgust
OF the Giants management.
Fill and Petty. each pitching three

until Bob Steele entered the contest
that the Giants were able to score.
Steele got by the seventh frame.

Martinsville, Frankfort and Vim
cennes appear the class Of the field,
IL season records count for anything.
OF the three, the first named must
be given the edge. The Artesian
City team has everything necessary
for a winner. 1t has power, scor-
ing ability and defense. along with
fine spirit and good coaching.
This does not mean that the team
will win the championship. 1t has
difficult task ahead. Already Mar
tinsville has put out three clubs
which were better. than some which
will appear here this weekend by
eliminating Bloomington and Mon
rovia in the sectional and Franklin
in the regional.
Not Always Best
In spite of all protects to the con-
trary, the best club does not always
win the State title. A series OF CRU
cling battles may weaken team so
that another which has not had such
struggles can slip into the final game
in better shape.
MartinsviIle probably will have
to defeat Muncie, Frankfort and
Central Of Evansville to enter the
title contest. The Frankfort scrap
will take every ounce of strength.
Coach Curtis players can muster.
This game, II dope runs true, Is
scheduled for Saturday Mt IL a. m.
A victory will mean a semi-final
encounter, probably with Central Of
Evansville, in the last game of the
afternoon at 8 o'clock.
II Martinsville can win the tour
ney 1t will have demonstrated beyond
much doubt its superiority. 1t is a
tough row to hoe.
The players are in fine shape for
the battle to come. And they must
be If success Is to crown their ef-
forts. Condition is going to count
heavily.
Evenly Balanced
The team Is very evenly bal
anced. There are no weak spots.
The. sharpshooters can score from
out on the floor or close In.
Francesconi, Reynolds, Schnaiter
anS Whitaker are dangerous ON
the attack at any time, and one
or the other is likely to break
loose for plenty Of points.
1t is hard team to stop and a
hard team to get through. No coach
can prepare for certain club, any
better than Curtis. He can point his
team for a certain opponent as well
as the best Of them. There will be
no shrewder coach at the Exposition
building.
Martinsville may not be the next
champions. In fact, odds are against
the team. But right now IL the
Artesian City club was playing any
one opponent a smile game. as far
as we are concerted, Martirsville
would be the favorte.
