Gotham May Get Bout.

NEW YORK. March 81 LP-Just
how Tex Rickard plans to stage
heavyweight title match between Gene
Tunney and Tom Heeney in London
and still save from British taxation
enough of the proceeds TO satisfy the
fighters and stockholders in the Madi-
son Square Garden Corporation puz-
zled the local experts today The same
skeptics- expect either the Yankee
Stadium or Polo Grounds to be Sc
lected finally as the scene OF the next
big title fight.
Announcing the match in Miami to-
day. the promoter declared that the
fight would be staged either In Eng
land or the United States some time in
July. AT the moment Rickard Is nego-
tiating with British promoters and If
the terms are adequate, he said, the
bout would be staged abroad.
While the match is accepted with
general approval by New York observers,
including a forecast of sanction for
holding it here by Chairman James A.
Farley of the State Athletic Commis-
am. Rickard is known TO have his
mind set on finding bigger and better
fields to conquer in his chosen racket
The promoter often has asserted
You can drain any locality just once
with big fight spectacle"
When you go back again, according
to this Rickard philosophy. the fans
won't pay the fanciful top-Seat prices
that have ranged as high as $50 for
some OF hts heavyweight title fights.

New YorkS enthusiasm has been

 Uganda swarms with game. Elephants roam the country by the thousands. Since the days of ancient Egypt man has hunted the giant tusker for ivory, but the wild elephant still defies civ ilization. Man-eating lions ter rorize the natives. Vicious leop- ards are ubiquitous.
 There is every type of the lion and leopard family from the giant Felis Leo to the diminutive Kaffir cat, ancestor of the do- nestle tabby, and every primate from the great gorilla to the wee bush-baby, no bigger than a half grown kitten.
 Mysterious Dc1-;s like the white rhinoeerous and the gor- fila, now in danger of extinc- tion, may only be hunted with the camera.
 Countless antelope, buffalo, ze- bra, giraffe, birds of prey and death-d dealing reptiles await the hunter in the untamed land, which is a British protectorate.
 The Eastman party may en- counter adventure even before it reaches Uganda. A few weeks ago British official was mur- dered by tribesman in the Su- dan, and until the incident is settled the little steamers of the upper Nile, one of which is car rying the Eastman party, slip warily past the rude native yil- lages where naked braves in war paint and carrying poisoned spears line the river banks.

 A charging buff rlinoceros missed Eastman by inches during a hunt here last year, but the veteran sportsman, lured from his comfortable Rochester fireside, is coming back for more adventure
 Eastman. his doctor, and a few friends are making their way slowly up the 1,100-mile stretch of the Nile from Cairo to Rejaf the head of navigation. Then they cut across to Arua by auto mobile. They will enter the jun gle hunting fields with cameras and guns about February 1.
 In Uganda the big game chas- CTS life is like movie film of thrills and hairbreadth escapes, a constant battle of human wits and high-powered rifles against nature and the jungle beasts.
 The hunter isn't always as lucky as Eastman was in his nar- row escape last year.

 Links u s. History
 The history of the United States really begins with Greenland. l., was on a voyage from Norway to Greenland that Jeff Ericsson, son of Eric the Red. discoYered America in the year 1000. A few years later Torfinn Karlsefne sailed from Greenland to Nova Scotia with three ships and 150 men, but returned three years later.
 The old Morse sagas say ~thst when the Norsencn first came to Greenland, they found the same type of people living there aa they found in Vinland, in AmeIi ca.
 Soon after Jeff Ericsson's vis:: to Greenland, the continental isl and was settled by several thous. and Scandinavians. During the later middle ages, however, all communication between Greenland and Norway ceased. and by the sixteenth century all trace of the Europeans had faded. They had either inter-married with the Els kimos or had been exterminated.

 Any apprehension on the part Of the New York fans concerning the poor showing of the Yankees on the spring exhibition tour today appear ed to have been unnecessary as the world champions were out in front with colors flying.

ORIGINAL, TEAM OF STARS
 TO BATTLE RUBBER WORKS
Arbour and Darrow Again Added to Squad - Game to Be Staged Tonight at Stanley Arena for Benefit of Community Chest Drive - Visiting Aggregation Represents Best Court Combination in Hartford Girls Quintets to Meet in Preliminary T1t

Once more the lineup Of the Ail- Star basketball team which is to rep resent New Britain in the inter-city Industrial league clash with Hart. ford has been changed. The origin al team of stars will be on the floor.
 The quintet that is to start against tho Hartford Rubber Works will consist of Luke of P. & r. Corbins, and LaHar of Fafnirs, forwards; Hoist. of r. & F. Corbins. center: .Arbour of Cortin Screw and Carl son of P. X F. Corbins. guards. The second team will consist of Arena of New Britain Machine. and Havlick of Fafnirs. forwards: Luty Of Corbin Screw, center; Darrow of Corbin Screw and Pelletier of Stanley Works, guards.
 The preliminary game will be played between the ?. & F. girls who won the championship of the girls league in a thrilling play-of and the Community Five of South Manchester, which has already SCOT cd two victories over Landers and one over the Stanley Rule girls.
 Many of the fans will be anxious to see how such stars as LaHar and Luke, Hoist. Arbour. Carlson. Dar- TOW. Arena, Pelletier. Havlick, and Luty work as a team. LaHar. Luke. Arena and Havlick are all high scorers.
 The Rubber Works team repre-. scnts the best basketball talent in Hartford. At center is "Bahe" Hur- ey, star on the Hartford Yankees in the State League and member of several other strong teams in the state. Then there is "Waddy' Waterman who will probably be guarded by Arbour. Urban. q for n.or New Britain boy. is also on the team as is Gctersloh and Madden. q pair of scoring guards. This com- bination won tfe State Industrial League championship.
 Without doubt the all-star team should give the Rubber Works & much better battle than that which the Screw shop team gave them in the elimination for the title.
 Since there is no admission charge the place will probably be packed.

WE|SMAN LOOKS
 FOR GOOD YEAR
President of Eastern Makes
 Optimistic Prediction

Waterbury, Conn.,, April 17 I1-- The most successful season in it's history is predicted for the Eastern league by its president. Attorney Herman J. Weisman of this city in preseason statement issued today. MT. Weisman points to the erection of new parks in three cities, change of ownership in two others and gen. er,~l optimism throughout the cir cult as the basis for his prediction. His statement follows:
 'The Eastern league opens its 18th season under the most auspi- cious circumstances since its forma- tion. Never before in it's history has such splendid optimism prevailed nor has there been such a concerted effort on the part of all the club owners to strengthen their teams and to improve playing conditions.
 Tt is a splendid tribute to base ball that so many members of the Eastern league decided this year to expend large sums in the improve mcnt of parks. change of location, purchase of clubs and building of stadiums.
 Ut is apparent that the club own CTS believe that baseball is regularly becoming more necessary to every community and are building for the future and this confidence has been inspired by the splendid support that has been given to most clubs in the league.
 II anticipate that all records for attendance in the Eastern league will be broken during the season ol 1928; that every club will be :. con tender for the pennant and, as { result, all the patrons of the league vii be able to enjoy the game mos thoroughly"
 | President Wcisman announced hi: assignment of umpires for the open ! Ing games as follows: Kuhn ant i Moran, Providence: Mclaughlin ant 1 Teck. Albany; Mcdonald and Rorty i Waterbury; Summers and Sullivan ! Hartford.

Two years ago when Ken sngton developed championship team under the management of Pat Buckley. Moore held tho post of as- sistant manager.
