SPARTAN 4
TEAM WINNER

Continuing their victorious march
toward another valley basketball
championship the Spartan "a"
team defeated the Brawley "a"
squad in the local gymnasium last
night in a game that was hard
fought throughout The final
score, 1917, indicated the nature
of the game which was a nip and
tuck affair from start to finish.
Phillbrick was again high scorer
for the Spartans with points TO
his credit, Robinson following him
closely with 7 markers. Furukawa,
speedy Central forward, accounted
for the remaining points. Riley
was Brawleys high point man with
10 points scored.

and Robinson, forwards; Phillbrick
center, Holbrook, Maddux and
Scroggins, guards. Brawley: Ber-
ger and Fury, forwards, Hickman,

as fortunate as in their first ap-
pearance against Calexico and
dropped a 1910 verdict to the
Brawleyites. Tie visitors got away
to a commanding lead and the To-
Gals were unable to whittle this
down to satisfactory degree.

SEE RUTH AS
YANK LEADER
Absence OF Row Over Annual
Contract Indicates Change
Next Year.
BY JACK CUDDY

NEW YORK, Jan. 13. = The be-
lief that Babe Ruth may manage
the New York Yankees in 1885 was
growing today after it had been
given stimulating jolt by Messrs
Rupert and Ruth.
Their agreement for the slug
gers 1884 salary, presumably about
S35, 900, was arrived at too quickly
and too harmoniously yesterday
No sounds of conflict came from
Colonel Jake Ruppert's brewery Of
flee. No smoking ultimatums were
tossed about.
They simply sat down like a
couple of neighborly housewives,
passed the time of day and agreed
to meet in the same office Monday
when the Babe returns from rabbit
hunting. Then the Bambino will
autograph his contract for the
benefit of cameramen.
TIE sweet serenity of it all was
too much for the more astute base
hall chroniclers. Why should these
perennial duelists clasp hands and
go into an adagio just when they
ought to be sharpening their
swords?
Some of the writer's figured that
one Of three things is certain:
l. That Babe and Jake are two
of the worlds greatest bamboozlers
who have been kidding the public
tor years with their springtime hos
titles for public purposes, or 2
that the blubber about the BAN
binos Waistline has crept up int
his head, or 8, that Ruth and Rup-
pert have tacit agreement for tlie
big fellow to take the drivers seal
in case a managerial change il
made at the end of the season.
The bamboozling theory is dis
counted because the Yankees neee
publicity more now than ever, since
the Giants reduced them to secono
ranking in New York.
TIE blubber- brain theory also i:
discounted because George Hermar
Ruth is known to have increased
in wisdom with advancing years
However, he has wholesome re-
spect for the dollar and has be-
come shrewd financier under
tutelage from willy Christy Walsh
Elimination leaves the tacit
agreement theory. 1t is an open
secret that Colonel Rupert was
vastly disappointed wien Manager
Joe Mccarthy and his supposedly
bangup 1888 club failed to win the
pennant.
Who would be more fitted to take
McCarthy's shoes than Ruth?

Onlted PreSS starr Correspondent
NEW YORK, Jan. 13. = Being
man with a deep and gracious
sense of appreciation, Colonel John
Reed Fitzpatrick, president of Mad
ison Square Garden, was pleased
on his return from a brief Florida
vacation, to learn that Jack Demp-
sey had offered to take over the
boxing business at the house Tex
built.
/ The Colonel told us SO himself
today. But that was unnecessary,
for how could any man fail to
appreciate such a magnanimous
gesture? Think Of It'll Dempsey out
of clear sky, and without an in
vitation, offers to step into a mil
lion dollar-plus organization, take
charge and run the works. And
he's perfectly Wiling to give the
garden a good break on the fin
ancial end. If there's any profits,
Jackll share 'em. And if there are
losses-well, Jack'll be even more
big-hearted. He'll let the garden
have them all. Pretty sweet, I'd
say.
That's what the Colonel said, too.
But he's not going to let Jack
make the sacrifice. Thinks too
much of the big fellow, for one
thing. And thinks he's little bit
over-confident as to his ability to
revive the corpse that is boxing,
for another.
There's nobody in sport that
thinks any more of Jack than do"
the Colonel said, And I'm glad
he's doing SO we'll. But I doubt
if he could help us much, for the
simple reason that it isn't pro-
moters that boxing needs, but
fighters. No promoter that ever
lived could breathe much life into
boxers with only the present crop
of fighters to work with. On the
other hand, almost any promoter
could make things hum around
the box-office if he had a heavy
weight like Jack was in his hey
day Jack forgets, when he talks
about reviving boxing, that the
fighters he would have to employ
couldn't carry his gloves when it
comes to color, ability and all the
other items that go to make a
heavyweight with genuine appeal.
"But suppose he did take charge
of boxing at the garden. He might
possibly be able to arrange a Baer-
Camera bout right away. That
would be nice, but what then? What
other bouts would he follow with?
Of course, Jack may possibly have
a group of spectacular fighters
tucked away somewhere that no
body knows about, but I am in
clined to doubt it. In fact, I re-
member reading somewhere where
he was quoted as saying that in
all his transforming as a referee
he hadn't run across single
promising prospect
NEW YORK, Jan. 13.-Colonel
John r. Fitzpatrick, president of
Madison Square Garden, hoped to
announce today that an agree
ment had been reached to match
heavyweight champion Primo Car
nera and Make Baer for little
bout in June.
Fitzpatrick, Jack Dempsey and
Ancil Hoffman, Baer'S manager,
were slated for another conference
after yesterdays harmonious meet
ing at which much progress" was
made.
It is expected that Dempsey and
the garden will join in promoting
| the bout.
