NEW YORK, Feb. 30. WP)-Mad-
ison Square Garden Corporation,
with the approval of the Muldoon-
Tunnev trophy committee, is pre-
pared to "steam roller" the winner
Of its current Jack Sharkey-Phil
Seott-Max Schmeling tourney into
the worlds championship, but there
is possibility that monkey
wrench may be thrown into the ma
chincrv.
Schmeling continues to sulk in
Germany and although his "repre-
senativcs" say he will accept terms
10 fight the Scott t-Sharkey winner on
thc milk fund charity card here in

self.
Garden officials frankly are wor-
ried and have made plans to substi-
tnte Vittorio Campolo, Argentine

according to the representative.
The cocoanut oil will be brought

Imperial Valley, with its supply OF
cottonseed oil, was large factor in
the decision of the company to erect

Cotton has long been an important
product of Imperial Valley, but the
fact that this company is depending
ON this section for its supply of

U,P>-A white bearded old gentle
man of 81 hoisted his feet onto the
shelf of a glowing stove, tilted back
his chair and recalled today when
lie sold Connie Mack and four other
baseball players for $500.
The speaker was Charles F. Dan

secluded life with his brother, Eu-
gene, on a farm six miles off the
New London Hartford turnpike
1t was while he was manager ot
the Hartford baseball club, then a
member of the National League,
that he sold Cornelius McGillicuddy
or Connie Mack as he is known to
baseball fans.
Gosh" he mused, Il bought Con-
ME Mack from Tom Reilly OF the
Meriden Club for next to nothing
and later sold him with four others
TO Washington for $500. That was
big money then
Daniels, despite his years. has

Only five New York players who
participated in the first National

said, and the crowd went to the
