Baer Ready to Give 'Em Action'
In Wide-Open Joust of Heauies

nament, according to Hoffman, would
be Steve Hamas, Primo Camera and
Max Schmeling, listed two days ago
by Baer as the most dangerous con-
tenders. Others on Hoffman's list
were Art LaSky Of Minneapolis, Jack
Doyle Of ireland, Jack Peterson Of
England and possibly Johnny Risko
of Cleveland, named because Hoffman
said Cleveland promoters wanted
Baer's appearance there.
"WeIl prove we're ready and willing
to meet any fighter in this country or
any other and we are now open to the
highest bidder" Hoffman said, adding
that he believed Baer's first defense
of his title would be in Chicago and
not New York. Hoffman did not con-
ceal the fact that he is at odds with
Madison Square Garden, declaring
that a contract held by the Garden
for Baer's services next June Is void.
Chicago Is anxious to have Hamas
fight Baer there and there Is an ex-
cellent chance Of that fight being ar
ranged" Baer's manager said. Jim
Mullen and Nate Lewis, Chicago pro-
moters, were en- route to New York
today with the announced intention
Of making arrangements" for Baeris

New York Reverses Ruling and
Permits Four-Rounders, but
Not With Set-fps.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, January 5.-The New
IN York State Athletic Commission
has reversed previous ruling
and announced Max Baer, heavy
weight champion, would be allowed to
fight four-rounders in this State.
However, the solons ruled that Baer
must agree to have q decision rem
dered by commission officials and must
be matched only with frst-rate oppo-
nents.
Legitimate rivals for the champion,
the commissioners ruled, include men
Of the caliber Of Primo Camera, Max
Schmeling, Steve Hamas or Art Lasky.
These conditions virtually preclude
any possibility Of Baer appearing In

Two officials, after all, will handle
each game of the public high school
basket ball championship, which
opens next Friday with a game be-
tween Central and Eastern at Roose-
welt and another between Roosevelt
and Tech at Tech. The two addi-
tional appointments will be recon-
mended early next week by the fac
ulty advisers and there is no reason
to anticipate the principals will dis
approve them.
It was the principals who, by vote
Of 80, decided to reverse the recent
action Of the faculty advisers in vot-
ing for only two officials, one for each
game. Coaches of the schools had
voted to have four. Dave Keppel and
M. A. Enright so far have been picked

Looks for Red Advance.

"HERE should be no such gap be-
tween the first and last place
clubs as there was at the finish
of the 1884 season, when the Gin
cinnati Reds were AZ games behind
the pennant winners. At least half
this gap should be closed because OF
the active and aggressive team build
ing conducted by the Reds, as well as
other second-division teams. In fact,
I will not be surprised if Cincinnati
shows more improvement than any
other club in the league this year.
The big trade between the Chicago
and Pittsburgh clubs. while involving
some outstanding performers, does not
figure to give either distinct ad-
vantage. 1t was about an even eX-
change, on the whole, but the change
in uniforms may prove am impetus
to the players concerned, including
Fred Lindstrom, Larry French, Guy
Bush and Babe Herman.

Night Game Trial Interests.

WYE LOOK forward with special
}" interest in the National League
to the experiment with night
base ball. 1t should be made clear
that the league owners were unani-
nous in deciding to try the expert
ment, limiting to seven the number
of games which any single club can
play under the lights.
Three clubs-New York, Brooklyn
and Pittsburgh expressed themselves
as unwilling this year to play night
games, but they are entirely agreeable
to having others try out the idea.
At least two clubs-St. Louis and
Cincinnati-are certain to install the
lighting system. They are prime mov-
ers in the experiment, but they also
urged its definite limitation this year.
Base ball men will watch the results

COCHET, LENCLEN
WILL INVADE j. S.
Suzanne's Visit Is Seen as
Promoters Spur to Win

BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

n YEW YORK. January 5-Henri
nj Cochet shortly will pick up his
v rackets, laid down last Sep
tember, and totter forth upon
an indoor court to see what can be
done about getting himself into shape
for tennis this year.
When finally he has regained some
thing approximating his normal form
he will come to this country, and
according to a Paris letter received
by this writer. Mile. Suzanne Lenglen
will accompany him.
The once-and possibly the pres
ent-peerless Suzanne will be very
welcome In this country, for. Of all
exponents in whatever sport, she
exemplifles the very epitome Of mobile
grace. She is as beautiful in action
on the tennis court as Hobey Baker
was on the hockey rink, as Red Grange
used to be on the gridiron, as Jim
Corbett was in the squared circle
of pugilism. More beautiful than they,
in fact, more beautiful than anyone
who comes to mind, because, in all
the dynamics Of her graceful move
ment was the ethereal feminine charm
| Of costume and demeanor.
Stirs the Imagination.
THE Imagination kindles at the
thought of Lenglen and Cochet
in mixed doubles-and in this
connection seems to lie explanation
of efforts now being made by pro-
fessional promoters to lure Helen
Jacobs, present woman's national
title holder, into commercialized lawn
tennis.
Cochet and Lenglen against Vines
or Tilden and Jacobs is a set-up
qualified to stir the mercenary sport
ing soul of any pro tennis promoter.
But Miss Jacobs friends in this city
are quite sure that those now en-
gagged in the task Of attempting to
strip amateur tennis of aught save
minor sporting appeal will fail in
their quest. Social honors mean a
lot to q girl, and Of these Helen is
having her full share in the course
Of her present sojourn abroad.
