AG] PAGE SIX THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE Young Petrolle Arrives From Fargo Anxious to Im- press Slope PASTEBOARD SALE BRISK Mandan and Bismarck Scrap- pers Are Anxious to Face Each Other By J. G. MacGregor With all of Friday night's prin- cipals tapering off from their furi- ous work to reach the sought for ak of physical condition for their its in the Rex theatre here, at- tention of the fans tuned today to a comparison of the merits of the performers. Forecasts appear to center on the Yespective abilities of the boys who will appear in the main go—Jimmy Dugan, the Capital city puncher, and doe Wicks, Glendive, Montana, mauler, the boys in the other bouts seeming to be evenly matched. Right now, Dugan rule: a slight favorite. The lanky Bismarck boy is reported to be a faster stepper than Wicks. has a longer reach, and greater skill at boxing. — Wicks has ring experience, position to rough it from finish, absorbs punishment cong and carries dynamite in both ® fists. Sentimental Odds Rule The slight advantage that is given Dugan is largely based on the Yavor in which he is held by local ringworms. In other words, the physital and mental comparisons and abilities are overshadowed by local favoritism — sentimental odds. Wicks will arrive in Bismarck gome time today from Glendive. Whether. or not he will hold a work- out is not definitely known, the Glendive Gladiator, ‘stating in a let- ter tu The Mysteriou Promoter that he had completed his heavy «ork and was only indulging in light ses- sions inthe gym. ‘Dugan wound up his serious train- ing y.

Petrolle Is in Shape Petrolle informed th» «ports edi- tor of The Tribune todav that he welcomes the chance of appearing on the Missouri Slope for the first time and is confident of making an excellent impr .s:on with the fans.

Three pitchers, three catchers and the entire 1927 outfield, with the exception of Ira Flagstad have passed out of the picture in the series of trades, swaps, purchases and releases which have marked a Quinn’s off-season activi- ties. Last year's veteran infield has been held intact and is expected to prove a foundation for Carrigan to build on in his second “comeback” year, along the managerial trail. Phil Todt at first base, Bill Regan at second, Russell Rawlings at third and Rogell, Jack Rothrock and Charles “Buddy” Myer as shortstop or utility points on the base paths are again available. Rogell plays either second base or third, Myer at short or in the outfield, and Roth- rock can handle any infield assign- ment, exclusive of battery work, Have Infield Rookies The two outstanding infield re- cruits are Joseph Cicero, a 16-year- ing school for the diamond, and Paul; Hinson, a third baseman purchased from Joplin, Mo. Cicero’s mother signed his contract for him. The departure of Walter Shaner, Cleo Carlyle, and Frank Welch for the minors leaves Ira Flagstad and Arlie Tarbert, former Ohio State star, the only prominent patrolmen of the outer gardens who graced the roster last year. The biggest gap was plugged promptly by the pur- chase of Ken Williams from St. Louis, followed by the acquisition of al three promising minor leaguers, Doug Tate, a slugging left hander from Nashville, and G. H. Loepp and Denny Williams, both from Mobile. Loepp hit .372, while Williams, an- other left hander, is exceptionally fast and hit for .350 last year. The pitching casualties of the win- ter season included Tony Welzer, Delmar Lundgren and Fred Wing- field. The outstanding replacement seems to be Herb Bradley, who was farmed to the Waterbury, Eastern League club last year, and was re- called in time to hurl several ex- cellent games. More Mobile Stars Two more ex-Mobile players have | been obtained in Ed Morris and Mer- rill Settlemire. Morris won 15 games with a tail end club and fin- ished more than 40-contests as a relief hurler, Settlemire is a left hander, Cliff Garrison of the Texa: Valley League is another recruit, while the remaining veterans are Slim Harriss, Charlie Ruffin, Danny McFayden, Jack Russell and Hal Wiltze. In the catching department, Fred Hoffman weathered the storm that sent Moore to Mobile, Knox to Nash- ville and Grover Hartley to Cleve- land on waivers. _The new recruits added are Charlie Berry from Dallas, Texas, John Heving from the To- ledo American Association, Ed Doh- erty of Holy Cross and Ed Connolly a New York state semi-pro. Berry, a former football and baseball star at Lafayette, is considered the most promising. Farmed to Dallas by Connie Mack, the 185-pound six-foot- er hit for .300 last year. Heving has been playing for Toledo with a Red Sox string on him and batted for 256 last y MANDAN DRILLS FOR HI-LINERS in Leonard McMahan, coach of the ; Mandan Braves, has been putting hs cagers through a week of. stren- | uous drills in preparation for the renewal of hostilities with the Val- ley City Hi-Liners at Valley City on Friday night.

The promoter 'eft New York last night for Miami, Ia. where he plans to spend four wecks with the conferences. On February 1, Rickard will post $100,000 to bind an cption on Tun- ney’s services for 1928 and around the same date he thinks he will have decided who will get the next op- portunity to knock the crown from |the big marine’s head. Rickard caught. his train last night immediately after a long and fruitless conference with the mana- gers of Jack Delaney and Tom Heeney, whom he hoped to match in a 15-round elimination bout at Madi- son Square Garden, March 1. De- laney was willing, ut Charley Har- vey, manager of the New Zealander, admitted he wasn’t so keen about it and accompanied this expression of opinion with a demand for 32% per cent of the gate, That broke up the conference. Rickard, leaving the solution of the tangled situation to John M. Chapman, “czar” of the six-day bicycle race game, and new- ly elected assistant general manager of the Garden, Sharkey-Risko Match Efforts now are to be made to match Jack Sharkey, who lost some prestige in his draw battle with Heeney last week, against Johnny Risko of Cleveland. The latter makes a specialty of taking the logic out of “logical” contenders. This match, if it goes through, will be a 15-round affair at the Garden, March 12, Paulino Uzcudun, Rickard dis-1 closed, ro longer is being considered in the plans for developing an out- standing challenger for the heavy- weight title. Although he spent most of the day with the heavyweights, Rickard found time to close a match between Sid Terris of New York, and Jimmy McLarnin of Los Angeles. They will battle at the Garden February 24. The winner probably will get a chance at a championship bout with Sammy Mandell. |McLeod Selects Squad to Make Western Trip Roy D.

Who Was Knocked Out? — Fans Are Puzzled in Iowa Sioux City, Iowa, Jan. 19.— (?)}—The boys who watch the boxing matches in Sioux City are scratching their heads to- day, trying to figure out who it| was that Buzz Griffith, Sioux Falls, S. D., middle- weight, knocked out Monday night. tyone thoyght it was ” Culbertson of St. Paul. It was so programmed, and a receipts signed “Eddie Culbert- son” was given to the promo- ter in return for the — loser’s share of the purse. It has. developed however, that Kid Culbertson was at home the night of the fight and consequently not in a prone pesition in a Sioux City ring. Walt Pritchard, the promoter, said he thought he was dealing with Culbertson, but added that he never had seen the St. Paul serapper and so may have been mistaken, Some who saw the fight said the man_ billed as Culbertson was “! ling” Mc- Night of eapoli was, Buzz Grif- ni Whoever, it fith knocked him out.

United States apparently will enter no team in the Olympic hockey com- petition at St. Moritz, Switzerland. this year. This, most observers agreed, was | the practical effect of the American Olympic committee’s action yester- day in declining to approve the se- lection of the Augsburg college team of be ea to carry this {country’s colors in ’he Olympic on |the ground that it was not suffi- ciently representative. The Augsburg team, it was point- jed out, was chosen only after Wil- iliam S. Haddock, of Pittsburgh, chairman of the Olympic hockey | committee, had met with numerous refusals from other ‘aggregations to which invitations to comepte had been extended. Augsburg Makes Effort There were indications, however, that both Mr. Haddock and the Augsburg team would make strenu- ous efforts to influence the commit-. tee to reconsider its action. At Pittsburgh, Mr. Haddock said ie was convinced the Augsburg team could give a good account of itself and declared he would not ac- cept the committee’s action without a contest. Augsburg athletic authorities at Minneapolis announced they would ask the Olympic committee for an opportunity to demonstrate their team’s merit in actual competition. In the meantime, they said, they would continue their work in rais- jing funds to defray half the team’s expenses for the trip abroad. 19.—()—The Herbert Hoover, secretary of commerce, once held a high posi- Pele in the Chinese government, having been the first director gen- eral of mines when China created a department of mines in 1899. ——_—— If You Get Up Nights.
