AT THE PALACE ALLEYS. Marlin Rockwell Co. League. C Floor Operatives, to Get 75% Flat. Fort Wayne, Ind., March 25.—Géorge Biemer, fight promoter, has returned here from Chicago, where he met Jess Willard and Fred Fulton, who are to fight for the world’s championship. Biemer announced today that in all probability the bout would be staged in Fort Wayne, as he ‘had offered $140,000 to bring. it here. New Or- leans has offered $130,000. Articles Signed at Chicago, Final articles closing a heavyweight championship - match - between Jess Willard and Fred Fulton were signed at Chicago today in the presence of Colonel Joseph C, Miller, the promoter, and a score of sporting celebrities. Willard, it is revealed in the new set of articles, is to receive seventy- five’ per cent .of thg net profits made of Net Profits and Fulton Gets $20,000 | E———— R ) of the club, of Larry Lajoie. Just now speculation is ripe as to where Lajoie will play, but it is almost a foregone conclusion he_ will hold down second base, unless Jake Daubert should be unable-to patrol first. % Every player in the Robbins’ camp realize what it means to have such an emineng slugger as Lajoie on the team, and are all seeing visions of another pennant. With such swatters as Lajoie, Daubert, Wheat and Myers, the Robbins certainly should fare far bet_ ter than in the campaign of 1917. Laj- ole Will insert just "the necessary amount of dyynamite, of punch, in the batting order to keep the Dodgers’ defensive in motion. < Reports that Lajoie would succeed Daubert as field captain have been de- nied-by officials of the club. Daubert by Miller, while on is to receive a flat sum of $20,000. The agreement also stipulates that Miller' shall have the right to sell or transfer the bout “to such person or persons as he may see_ fit.” 7 “If I am successful in sélling the match for $100,000 or more—in fatt, any amount—I will have to pay Ful- ton $20,000 and give Willard seventy- five per cent. of the balance,” Miller cxplained. “I may not be able to sell the match. If I don’t I shall promote it myself. There's one thing certain— Willard and Fulton will fight some place for the champlonship next Fourth of July.” The articles- provide that Willard and Fulton shall establish training quarters in the vicinity of the city in which the contest is staged for at least three weeks prior to the bout. The number of rounds to be fought will depend entirely on the laws of the state. Fulton, attired in a frock coat and carrying a cane, faced a battery of cameras with the champion after the articles were signed. “I guess we are a pair of the big- gest guys you boys have ever snap- ped,” Willard saig to the camera op- erators, The champion, accompanied by Mil- ler, -will leave for Baltimore tonight to dispose of some of his circus equip- ment. He already has started Iight training but will do no boxing for sev- eral weeks. Lajoie a Speculation. Little else is being discussed among the members of the Dodgers practic- ing at Hot Springs, Ark. except the signing by Charles Ebbets, president Wwill remain in charge of the team on the field, but it is safe to say- that Lajoie will be one of his chief lieu- tenants. If Lajoie should play second base, the infield, besides him, would embrace Daubert at first. Olson at short and perhaps, O’Mara or Ward at third, with O'Rourke also having an outside chance to win that position. DUNDEE AND JACKSON FIGHT 3 DRAW AT NEW HAVEN Dundee Has Advantage in First Few Rounds But Jackson Comes Back Strong.* New Haven, Conn., March 25— Johnny Dundee and Willie Jackson, aspirants for the lightweight title, fought fifteen slashing rounds to a draw here tonight. Dundee set a rapid pace from the beginning and in the early rounds Jackson seemed at a disadvantage, but he grew sironger as the fight went on. sending in clean hard punches for Dundee’s frequent jabs. Both men took heavy punishment in an effort to get in a decisive blow, and several times Jackson rushed Dundee to the rope: Refereey David E. Fitzgerald deciared it a draw.

Catcher Jimmy Archer, formerly of the Cubs and now signed as back- stop for the Pirates, will find an-old teammate, Fred Mollwitz on the Drey- fuss payroll.
