INBASEBALL CIRCLES Yankees and Glants' Owners Will Lock Horns at Chicago Meeting New York, Jan, 9,~The dogs of war wre barking at the disappearing figures of New York's baseball magnates who have slipped away from the eity for repose and other things, With the failure of the joint sched- ule committee of the two leagues to come to an agreement at the adjourned Atlantie City meeting, followers of the national game here are beginning to stuff their ears in an- tielpation of the booming that they say will reverberate when the 16 club presidents meet in Chicago next month to adopt a schedule, In previous years the two schedules were made up without much difficulty and the February mecting generally was regarded as a ratification and tea sipping affair, But, not so this year, Pros and antis are reported organizing to settle the dispute injected into the winter fanning by the New York ciubs, The other seven Natlonal league elubs are reported behind the Glants in thelr demand that games be sched- uled for them at home on Sunday this year that will confilet with the Sun- lay home games of the Yankees. The | American leaguers are opposing this, lr-hurulng the Glant management “with | mercenariness” and asserting that two contests may jeopardize the Sunday game in the metropolis, To force the Yankees to accept con- Micting dates or forfeit the games 8o scheduled, the Giants also must gain the support of at least six Amerlcan cague clubs which Ed. Barrow, busi- ness manager of the Yanks says is impossible as two units of the younger organization already have tendered their support to the Yanks. A two irds vote of ezch league, voting separately 18 required to adopt the schedules. 7ALE TRACK TEAH T0 START WORK AT ONCE Merriam to Billy Queal and Ned Coach Candidates in the Absence of Trainer Johnny Mack.

Annapolls, Md., Jan, 9.—Richard A. Glendon, who for 21 years coached naval academy crews, developing in his last three years here crews un- equaled in the annals of college row- Ing, has coached his last college crew, according to his statement yesterday. At least that is the way he feels about it now and he thinks that he is not likely to change his mind. Offers were made to Glendon by several leading colleges and he had expected to accept one of them, but in each case he would have been called upon to try to develop a crew to defeat his old charges. “I just could not bear the idea,” the veteran coach said. “I have had too much to do with the old Severn and it means too much for me to bring a crew to race against the people who are so closely assoclated with it in my mind."” Glendon, Sr,, is spending a week here and is consulting with his son Richard A. Glendon, who succeeded him as naval academy rowing coagh, He likes the material on hand and be- lieves the academy will have a strong crew, in spite of the fact that all but one of the regulars of last year were lost by graduation.

BATTLE DEMPSEY Jess Tells New Yorkers He Wil Be Ready Next June New York, Jan, 5 =(By the Asso. clated Press)-—Intercst in heavywelght boxing affairs greater new than it has been for months will he divided for & few hours between Jess Willard, the ex-champion, whose bulky frame blew into town last night, and Moyd John. son, the young westerner who meets Bill Brennan the tried and tired war horse in a 15 round hout at Madisen Bquare Garden Friday night, later in the week Willard and Brennan will share the limelight with Kearns, manager of Jack Dempsey, whose advent from the Pacific coast has been heralded for several days. Harry Wills, the negro aspirant to Dempsey's tiara also may crowd In when he hears that Willard has drawn the color line and won't fight him, To Meet. With Rickard For the moment Willard and he 2656 pounds hold the stage. Accom- panied by his manager, Ray Archer, he arrived last night for a conference Wednesday with Tex Rickard the pro- moter, who 1s now in the middie west. Willard ‘announced that he can be down to 238 pounds and ready for Dempsey or anyone else by the first of June, He sald he has lost 20 pounds sinee be began light training last Juiy and that through only occasionnl exercise. He went from 290 to 238 to meet Dempsey when he lost his crown in July 1919 at Toledo he sald, and so he is not worried. Says He is Only 36 What Willard is concerned over however is the obstacle that prevent- led Bob Fitzsimmons one of the old tPme heavyweight champions from re- turning to the ring after he, like Wil- lard had yearned for the smoke of battle. This is Willard's age or his al- leged age. He sald last night that he 1s 36 though some of the record books for years have had a birth rate down that makes him from 39 to 42. The state law prevents men over 38 boxing in New York, but Jess sald he was unaware of that until informed last night by reporters. To Attend Garden Bouts Willard will attend the battlé at Madison Square Garden Friday night which gives some foundation to the story that he will meet Johnson be- fore he tackles Dempsey, it at all. Brennan has served as the spring- board for several heavywe!ght aspir- ants and served them well, and gener- elly to the satisfection of those who pay to see him do it.
