AL Lopez, Catcher Added

United Press Staff Correspondent

CHICAGO, Dec. 13.-(UP).-
While major league baseball club
owners were closing their eventful
mid-winter conference, Bob Quinn
Yesterday obtained much needed
catcher, Al Lopez, to strengthen
his newly acquired Boston Braves.
In the final trade of the meet
mo Quinn sent Pitcher Ed Brandt
and Infielder Randy Moore to the
brooklyn Dodgers in exchange for
Lopez, Iinfielder Tony Cucinello
and Pitchers Ray Benge and Rob-
ert Reis.
AT the same time, Quinn an
nounced he had sent Pitchers Flint
Rhem and John Van de Mere to
the Nashville club of the Southern
association.
president of the st. Louis Cardi-
nails, conferred with Quinn in an
attempt to work out a deal CEN
tering about the Braves pitcher,
Fred Farmhouse.
Quinn wanted Charley Colbert
and either another player or cash
in exchange for Farmhouse, but
Hickey wouldn't listen. After
failure of the negotiations, Hickey
announced purchase of Catcher
Ogrodowski and Infielder Stuart
Martin from the Columbus club of
the American association. He said
both were to remain with the
Cardinals and would not be sent
elsewhere.
While the National league ap-
proved the Braves acquisition by
Quinn, who took over the club by
assuming its heavy indebtedness
and guaranteeing to provide work
ing capital for the 1886 season,
the American league took no ac-
ton on the st. Louis Browns. I'm
til last Monday, St. Louis syndi-
cate had been negotiating for the
purchase of the Browns.

Louis IS BIG

NEW YORK, Dec. 13. (UP).-
Joe Louis, Detroit's glamorou;

be the biggest betting favorite in
major heavyweight history when
he climbs into Madison Square
Gardens ring tonight against old
Pauline Uzcudun of Spaln-IaSt
of the iron men.
Odds range from 10 to 10
against l that the brown oomoeT
will beat the ancient Basque wood
chopper. These quotations are
considerably longer than the o.
favoring Make Baer IN ms upset
title tilt with Jimmy BraddocS'
and the 81 favoring John l.. Sui
Ivan over Jim Cor5ett.
AS indicated by the lop-Slaed
quotations, there is little betting
on the outcome, even the most
arddent Pauline admirers conced-
ing that only a sensational MI
racle" could give Uzcudun victory.
Most of the wagering Is on
knockout, with jolting Joe favored
AZ 1875 to Kayo the Spanlard-
despite Paulino's durability record
of never having been stopped,
counted out or even floored.
Officials of the goth Century
club and the Garden, arch rivals
who have Joined hands in staging
this somewhat farClcal contest, as
sured today that it would be
sell-out. A capacity house of 1S,-
600 spectators is figured to swell |
the gate to $4,000. The gate
could have gone to Sl50,OO0, but
the complimentary lists of the
Garden and Goth Century pared
down the take.
Even though the bout shapes up !
as a one-sider pitcher and catcher !
affair in which the only question |
is whether Louis, the irresistible
force. can smash Paulio, the shop
worn immovable object, to the
floor-it will provide the Garden
with its first professional fight
sellout since the tragic Primo Car
nera-Ernie Schaaf bout two wears
ago. H..
the house that Richard built has
had gate exceeding SlOO,O0O
since the opening encounter OF the

ETHIOPIAN ARMIES
ARE DEMORALIzED
(coovrisht, 1888, United Press)

Adds ABABA, Dec. 13. (UP)
Emperor Halle Selassie would like
to make peace with Italy because
his armies are becoming demoral-
lied by constant bombing, sickness
and seant food but the Franco
British offer is too ''raw" to per-
nit acceptance, the United Press
was informed by reliable authori-
ties last night.
Officials in charge during the
emperor's stay at the northern
front said he would have no choice
but to reject the plan-or to re-
sign his throne. Government au-
thorities asserted the Hoare-Laval
scheme is merely a maneuver to
evade the main issue of whether
the league can make sanctions
work against Italy.
The United Press understands
that the Negus would welcome .
plan which would not;
1. Cause a revolution in ETH
opia.
2. Be equivalent to ''backdool
annexation"-as he holds the
Hoare-Laval scheme.
