HOYAS NO MATCH
FOR VIOLET QU|NT.
Drubbed, 1921, in Game at
N. Y. U.-Manhattan to
Be Met Tonight.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
N YEW YORK. December "a
M Whipped by the crack New
v York University five in the
opener of a three-game north
ern trip, Georgetown basket ball
quint will make a second effort
against a Gotham team tonight when
Manhattan is opposed.
The Hoyas absorbed a neat lacing
from the Violets last night. 81 to 81.
It was the twenty-third consecutive
triumph for the New York U. and
the seventh this season.
New York u, which already has
beaten Notre Dame and Kentucky,
was off to substantial lead, with the
Hilltoppers unable to score until the
game was IA minutes old. Then Don
Gibeau sunk shot from midfloor to
start the Washingtonians. but SO
closely-knit was the Violet defense
that Georgetown never really was able
to make a battle of it. The score at
half was 18 to 9 in favor of N. Y. U.

Vines Sparkles in Singles.

TINE nightcap gave the cramped
and firing audience a juicy re-
ward in the form of highly spec
tacular tennis. Lester Stoefen fairly
burned up that big green travelling
court before Vines could hit his
stride. The latter was trailing his
towering opponent Al until his great
forehand drive began going in the
proper places, then he ran out three
games in succession to deuce the set
A. After dropping the next to Little
Rollo, Vines dashed off three brilliant
games for a win, IS.
Stoefen captured the first game of
their second set, but Tilden's young
teammate whitewashed Les from then
on, taking six in row by flashing a
brand of tennis that defied competi-
ton.
Approximately 1890 followers of the
court game paid $4,000 to help the
travelling netmen buy rackets and
flannel slacks-and maybe salt a little
away in the old sock.

- The number of Joe Louis con-
secutive fight conquests now
stands at IA, but the fans think
he might have worked little harder
for the last one.
In the final round Of an otherwise
listless bout last night the Furnishing
Detroit Negro woke up long enough to
send Hans Birkie to the ropes and
make the German heavyweight ask
the referee to stop the fight.
1t was a technical knockout for Joe,
but he won it only after the referee
and the crowd in Duquesne Gardens
joined in asking that he show more
action.

Louis Always Master.

r OUIS had matters in hand all the

that boos soon started his way.
In the fourth he gave Birkie pound
ing, but the spectators insisted vocif-
erously he was pulling his punches.
Things got SO that in the ninth
round Referee Red Robinson pleaded
with the gladiators to get busy. So in
the tenth Joe let loose a barrage OF
punches and after a minute and Al
seconds of that round Birkie motioned
Robinson to send Louis to his corner.
The big German showed fight in the
early part of the match, but his blows
did little damage. Near the end he
appeared exhausted and few, if any,
of his feeble punches landed.
About 5000 persons paid $500 to

Could Help Braves.

TT APPEARS the Babe would fit very
i nicely into the Boston National
League situation, as a counter
attraction to the reviving Red Sox.
but there are complications, including
the fact that Bill McKechnie has q
five-year managerial agreement with
the president of the Braves, Emil E.
Fuchs.
This agreement has four years more
to run, but a shake-up in the Boston
control-which is not unlikely-might
alter the outlook and pave the way
for the Braves to take on Ruth.
The Yankees paid RHth S35, 900 for
participating. more or less, in 125
games last year. They probably will
ask him to sign for $4,000 this year,
which would still make him the high
est salaried part-tine player.
I haven't heard from the Babe
since he left the country" concluded
Col. Rupert. Il don't know whether
he will change his mind about quit
ting, If he doesn't become a man
ager. I doubt if he would be very
happy out of base ball"

NEW YORK OFFERS
$4,000 CONTRACT
Would Make Babe Highest
Paid Part Job
as Pilot in Sight.
BY ALAN GOULD,
Associated Press Sports Editor.

n YEW YORK, January l2.-De-
M spite Babe Ruth's fat state
ment during the last world
series that he will retire from
base ball this year unless he gets a
job as a major league manager, the
New York Yankees will offer the vet
eran slugger a player contract for one
more season. They expect him to
sign it.
This is based upon the combined
circumstance that no managerial job
seems available for the Babe in either
big league and that Col. Jacob Rup-
pert, the owner of the Yankees, is un-
willing to let Ruth go to any other
club except as pilot.
'I will not stand in Ruth's way If
he has any chance whatever to fulfill
his ambition to be a manager" Rup-
pert told the Associated Press today.
IT will not ask one single penny for
his services from any club in either
the American or National League If
it shows me definitely it is willing to
install Ruth as manager"

Not After Big Price.


THE colonel denied fatty he wants
i a substantial sum for Ruth's
release, under any circum-
stances, but added 1t would be an en-
tirely different proposition if a club
desires Ruth merely as an assistant
manager or as a part-time playing
attraction.
THE Yankees will be glad to keep
Ruth for at least another year and
will offer him a contract for 1885,"
added Rupert, who still feels the old
slugger can contribute some useful
performances with his big bat. The
Yankee owner has followed with spe-
cial interest the reports of the Oriental
tour, during which Ruth startled the
natives with an oldtime burst Of home
run hitting.
Rupert has received no definite
overtures from any club for Ruth's
services as manager. So far, he
says, the only conversation he has
had on the subject was with Charles
F. Adams, representing the Boston
Braves.

Lott Crushed in Doubles.
A T TIMES during the encounter,
~ Little Rollo Stoefen was every
inch of his 6 feet 312, a dazzling
comet of unbeatable tennis. He dealt out
thrills galore, whanging the little white
ball about the veterans feet. Several
points were scored by him with such
tremendous power that Vines just
naturally ducked for cover. But too
often the blond giant didn't keep in
close touch with his great strength,
and knocked off customers hats and
made misplacements against silken
knees at the courtside.
His fighting partner, George Lott,
failed to display the doubles form
which made him famous. He ap-
peared over anxious on many more or
less simple returns, and growing a
very thick frame on his racket,
dribbled into the net.
Tilden worked the fiery Chicagoan
into a good lather at net play, alter
nately dropping them over and firing
sizzlers down the alley. 1t was break
ing through Lofts service that en-
abled the Tilden-Vines combination

Would Use Private Fields.

TT Is the scheme and the plan of the
A. A. U. to develop interest in the
neighborhoods and to make greater
effort to take care OF the physical
bringing-up Of the boy and girl who
is anxious for athletic competition.
It Is the hope that those in charge
Of the armories, private play fields,
private athletic grounds and other
places where there are facilities for
exercise and competition will throw
them open for open athletic competi-
tions in the interest of the athletic
development of the youth Of the land.
They shall be urged to do so. The
A. A. U. is always glad to cooperate
with her allied sister bodies, such
as the intercollegiate associations, the
knights of Columbus, the Y. M. c.
A., the Y. M. H. A. and similar Or
CARNATIONS, in promotion of the un-
derlying American principle that a
sound mind is to be found in sound
body.
Throughout the year, therefore, of
1885, through sanctions granted by
the A. A. U. by its different district
associations and through its affiliated
bodies, more opportunities for ANA
teur athletic competition will be
offered throughout the country than
ever before.

BY JEREMIAH T. MAHONEY,


Y look for the continued growth
and influence of the Amateur
Athletic Union of the United States
is most promising.
This is properly so, because study
Of the purposes Of its creation and
organization. of the things for which
1t stands, of the people who conduct
its affairs, Of its plans and accom-
plishments, must inevitably lead to
the conclusion that the A. A. U.
has an important and permanent
place in America to fill.
During the new year 1t is proposed
to create a comprehensive plan for
reorganization, involving the creation
Of many new districts throughout the
country. Reducing the districts of
larger size to small areas or to the
State as a unit will give better op-
portunities for more intensive ath-
letic development and greater and
numerous chances to organize ath-
letic clubs in sections of America
where there now is no athletic COM
petition, particularly for the boy
and girl out Of school or college.
Then again, in many cities, such
rs New York, strange as it may ap-
pear, there are fewer opportunities
for athletic exercise and track and
field competition for the boys and
girls than there were many years ago.
