A few nights ago, when Cad- dock wrestled Cyclone Burns in Bos- ton, Curley conferred with the cham- pion and his manager, but Melady asked for $50.000. for a bout in Madi- on Square Garden. He insisted that Caddock was as good a drawing card cither Carpentier or Dempsey and declared he would not agree to the match with Stecher for less money. On Friday morning Caddock, Me- lady and Curley again conferred, this time in this cit and the champion d his manager, after being offered 5,000 for a tinish bout, declared they would consider the matter and give Curley a definite answer no latter than ! Sunday. Last night Curley received the ! following telegram from Melady: addock cepts your guarantee { for match with Stecher on or about January 30, but 1 insist you must pos- j itively discontinue using Stecher’s name as champion.” According to the agreement, the lo- I promoter guarantees a purse of 40,000, of which Caddock is to re- i ceive $25,000 and Stecher $15,000. As one of the New Jersey boxing clubs already has arranged a good boxing card for January 30 Curley last night announced that he probably will stage [ the wrestling match in Madison : Square Garden or in the Seventy-first togiment Armory a few days before i that date or the ck in Feb- { ruary.

PAT MORAN STANDS PAT ON GHAMPIONS Reds’ Manager Can’t See Where Changes Would Improve Team Cincinnati, Jan. 12.—Both Garr: Herrmann and Pat Moran have come out for a stand-pat policy. They have done a lot of thinking, and they can- not see where the world’s champions can be much improved. No trades could be made without giving a quid pro quo—without weakening the champions 2s much as they would’ gain. The club is surely good for one more se: n before its stars grow too old and slow. Crane has been secured to brace the infleld and act as general utility man. Manager Moran would like to land one more outflelder, but where is such bird to be secured? No help is needed among the catchers, and why worry as to the pitchers, when G ner and Br - will be in shape to take their share of the burdens? The Cubs have already announced that they will trust to the team with which they finished the 1919 season. It was a great ball cubatthe end of the campaign, and seems plenty good enough, with a little better luck, for a splendid showing next summer. Mc- Graw is offering barrels of coin to brac> up the Glants, and won't get many accessions, but his club is am- ply capable of grand work against all comers. Looks like a three-club race even this early, with small chance for the remaining five. Nick Allen, the Reds’ third catcher, iz -in town, loaded down with good humor and money. Great is the luck of Mr, Allen, also of Rebel Oakes, for- renowned as a big leaguer. They put much money into oil, and’ now it has yvielded them huge returns. Allen’s share is said to be near $300,- 000 and Oazkes is reputed to be a mil- lionaire ATTRACTIVE CARD FOR TIGERS ELEVEN a But Princeton Men Regret Absence of Colgate Team in 1920 .Schedule. Princeton. Jjan. —Princeton’s football schedule for next fall is one that combines attractiveness with real playing strength. Opening with! Swarthmore, the Tigers take on in-or- der, Maryland State, Washington and Lee, the Navy, West Virginia, Har- vard and Yale. Of the seven teams listed Maryland State is perhaps the one least likely The little Quakers had an eleven of undoubted strength this past fall and the gener- s have been known to come out of the South with teams that have thrown a scare into more than one big camp. Princetonians generally gate’s absence, if only regret Col~ because the {1920 Tiger team will not have an op- portunity to atone for this year's de= feat. Inability to get {ogether on; dates, however, made a game between Princeton and Colgate impossible for { next season. “Mike™ Callahan and 15 other let- ter m2n will remain from this year's team and there whl be a strong nu- cleus around which to build the 1920 outfit.
