There has been some doubt in boxing circles about Smith's abllity to make the required welght of 11§ potinds, but the Harlem boxer pulled a sur- prise yesterday'by hopping on the scales and tlpping the beam at the necessary notch. This is the first time that he has made the bantamwelght limit, but he declared yesterday that he had had no difficulty in getting down to weight and that he felt en edge for tonight's contest. “I am sorry I have never made the welght before,” he sald, “for I have never felt more fit. This is an oppor- tunity of a lifetime for me and I am going in there to finish the job as quickly as possible. Santa Claus hap been mighty good to me in the past week and I hope he continues the good work in my behait.” S8mith evidently had reference to the Ilifting of his suspension at the hands of the New Jersey boxing com- mission in order that he might ful- fill his contract for the Lynch bout The lifting of the suspension was not an unmixed blessing for the Harlem battier, however, as he underwent : severe lacing‘at the hands of Irish Johnny Curtin in order to meet the demands of the New York and New Jersey boxing boards, Previous tc Garden officlai: announced that Smith's chance tc meet Lynch depended on his ability to dispose of Curtin. While he fafled of this objective, Midget did give Cur- tin a lively tussie and Rickard recon- sidered his first decision and decided to let the match go through as orig- inally scheduled.

With his usual speed Frankie telephoned the Glants' of- fice yesterday and tried in vain to get in touch with John MeGraw, who was away for the day. In McGraw's ab- dence the Flash poured his tale of woe into the ear of BSecretary Jim Tierney, the tale consisting of the fol- lowing statements: That Frank does not like the idea of his namé being mentioned in connection with an of- fice in the unien; that peoplé may judge from that that he is dissatis- fied with the way the GHants have treated him; that Frankie is not dis- satisfled and merely jolned the union to stick with the other players, never dreaming that they would nominate him for president. b However, it seems tnat Frisch's fears are groundless, for he now has a second rival for the leading office, be- sides which the balloting is sald to be going heavily in favor of George Durns of the Cincinnati Reds, who was one of the two orlginal nominees. The new.candidate is Jacques Four- nier of the Cardinals, and, although the outlying precincts are not yet in, it looks as if Frisch will run eecond to Burns, who is favored because of his longer term of service in the ma- Jjor leagues. Fournier's name as a presidential nominee appears on a revised list which came to light yesterday. Here is the way the ticket lines up now: President, Frank Frisch, George Burns and Jacques Fournier; viee- president, Jake Daubert, Cincinnati; Arthur Fletcher, Philadelphia Na- tionals, and Zack Wheat, Brooklyn; financial secretary, Billy Southworth, Boston Braves; Dave Bancroft, Giants, and Jimmy Johnson, Brookiyn; re- cording secretary, Cy Willlams, Phil- adelphia Natlonals; Willlam Doak and John Lavan, 8t. Louis Cardinals. On the board of directors each elub but Chicago and Pittsburg will be rep- resented by one player. The absence of those two clubs bears out the re- cent statement of President Heydler of the National league that the organ- izers of the union met with little suc- cess among the Cub and Pirate play- ers. The fact that no player will rep- resent ‘either team is taken to mean that no members were obtained. from those sources. y The American league, of course, {8 entirely unrepresented. Despite .Ray. Cannon's assettion that ninety players have been recruited from that circuit; no trace of them can be found. Every one of the ninety seems to be in hid- ing. The failure of Cannon and hi§ Zusncimes to work among the Ameri- an leaguers is the most mystifying feature of the players’ movement. i Either they intend to ' ignore the Johnson lcague -entirely or.else they plan to round up the National league faithful first and then start a drive in the junior circuit, = ° FOOTBALL STAR TO WRESTLE Iowa City, Dge. 22.—Johnny Heldt, star center on the University of Iowa football eleven, wianer of four *I's’ for his work on thé gridiron, started the final stretch of*hig athletic career as a college athlete when he reported to Ceach Mike Howard for the Iowa wrestling team.
