game Efforts are being made to have
seating accommodations for the people
who attend. Several rows of benches
will be placed all around on the lower
floor and several more will also be
placed upstairs.
This game draws the largest crowd
of any game, even more than were
present at the Tucson game, so extra
accommodations will be made. A large
crowd Of Bisbee people will accompany
their teams, as they do in all sports
between the schools Efforts will be
made to take care of the crowd. All
tickets are so cents, which admits the
purchaser to both games, the first be-
ing called at 1880 sharp and the second
game beginning Immediately after the
preliminary contest.
Walter Davis, assistant basket ball
coach at the University Of Arizona and
head track coach, will officiate the two

Training Camps viii
Be Opened This Week
To ReceiUe Players

NEW YORK, Feb. IA N9-Migra-
tion of major league clubs south
ward this week is expected to pe-t
gin spring practice. va
The fate of Wilbert Robinsof's
RECONSTRUCTED Brooklyn team this
year hinges on the ability OF re-
cruits to stop four gaps in his inner
and outer defenses. Robby has built
his hopes for infield strength on
Fob Barrett of Memphis and Jimmy
Partridge of Nashville, while Arnold
Statz of Los Angeles and Harvey
Hendricl1 of New Orleans are ex
rected to fill out the outfield.
Manager Mccarthy is counting
heavily on English to strengthen his
team this year, while he also looks
to Earl Webb of Louisville to add
batting power to his outfield corps.
Contrasting with his reconstruc-
ton moves in infield and outfield,
John McGraw evidently has decided
to pin his faith for improved catch
ing entirely on minor league mate
rial. He will gamble on three
chances-Al Devormer, purchased from
Louisville, John Cumming from the
Wheeler club of the New York.

a repetition of high handed and
autocratic methods of the Amateur
Athletic union in swimming meets
is being formed, Pete Wendell,
Omaha swimming coach said today
Wendell, who member of The Ma
tional swimming committee of the
A. A. U. said the organization is the
result of gross unfairness'' at the
recent Buffalo meet. However, it
will have no thought Of combating
the A. A. u, he explained.
Wendell said the principal com
plant against the association COM
mittee at the Buffalo meet was that
New York swimmers were given a
decided advantage in seeding of en-
tries in the preliminary heats. Only
the first swimmer in each group
was qualified, he charged, leaving
many good swimmers out of the
finals and giving the New York en-
tries a chance to compete.

Ticket Spectators
Grab Pasteboards for
Bout

NEW YORK, Feb IA (P)-Tex, Rick
ard today applied to the state
athletic commission for an investi-
cation of reports that tickets for his
heavyweight elimination fight Fri
day night between Jack Delaney and
Jimmy Maloney, have fallen into the
hands ouf spectators.
Agreeing to furnish names and
addresses of all ticket purchasers if
evidence Of speculation is disclosed
the Madison Square Garden promoter
asked that the commission examine
his box office records and review
the "metkod by which tickets have
been allotted"
Speaking in the absence of Chair
man James a. Farley, George L.
Grower Of the commission said he
believed the board would comply
with Richards request for an In
yestigation.
"I have heard reports of specura.
tion," he said, "and I think they
should be looked into. We shall
probably take action on Richards
letter tomorrow"
Rickard said he had taken unusual
precautions to prevent speculation
selling tickets in large blocks ex-
cept to purchasers known by the
promoter or vouched by other offic-
ials of the garden. REQUESTS from
unknown applicants received through
the mail have been Investigated, he
asserted, while in nearly every case
the allotment has been cut to one
half or one-third of the tickets re-
Guested.
In spite of this, however, reports
breezed through the Broadway can,
yon that spectators were offering
tickets for sums two and three times
higher than box office prices, for
ringside seats, for which the garden
is charging $40 were said to be
worth between $50 and SIS.
Richards said that he could have
sold out the gardens capacity, 49,
600 at least three times over on the
applications he has relieved. Already
seats in the ringside, arena and first
balcony had been disposed of. The
garden management announced that
there will also be standing room
for about 1000.
