New York, Feb. 21—Declines out- numbered advances in today’s profes. sional market, which most often re- flected the increasing perplexities aris- ing from International conditions and the impending holiday.

RABBIT STILL HOLDING OUT Maranville Starts Away on Trip. ‘Barring the fact that Rabbit Maran- ville paid a very brief visit to Bostop the other day, nothing stirred with re- spect to the Braves. In Boston for barely half an hour, Maranville did not have occasion to visit President Haughton so the hold- out situation with respect to the mid- get and the Boston club contains no symptoms of change. The Rabbit's sole purpose in going to Boston was to join with a party of friends who are on their way to the wilds of Maine for a briet fishing trip. The midget made the emphatic state- ment that his holdout attitude had in no wise been brought about or affected by the alleged activities of his Boston friends and intimates, that he had taken his step on his own initiatize and would continue along that line without regard, one way or the other, to any voluntéered advice from any- body. SPORTING NOTES The boxing game in New York lsn't broken. It is simply beat. Jack Curley is firft to defend any scheme in which Jatk Curley is inter- ested. iee¢ Fvnn has started to prepare a few bajls of press stuff to send out on Pete Hartley, who beat Joe Welling. Well, Pete deserves all the good things Manager Leo will say about him. He is a real battler and show ed up the so-called American cham- pion, according to all reports. _ Pete was always a favorite in New Haven and the fans would like to have him play a return engagement. President Dan O'Neil has paid Law- rence another visit, but if he gained results, he is keeping pretty mum about it.
