More co- {eflmn and business harmony in itials of the sport were what the National League was striving for, accofding to Mr. Heydler, and it w belleved that leaders of th&® American would view the situation in the fime light. ‘While the National League appeared to favor a conclave of the sixteen ciub owners of the two major organi- zutions, Mr. Heydler was empowered to_appoint a committee of any size agreeable to the American League in case that body decided for a commit- tee conference instead of a meeting of ‘the two leagues as a whole, The time and place were also left open to suit the convenience of the junior league, but it was pointed out that such a conference should he held as €oon_as possible in order to arrange for such changes as might be adopted before the annual meeting of the Na- tional Commission, scheduled for Jan- nary 6. Mr. Heydler stated that in the in- formal discussions \of baseball ma ters today there was no fixed majority opinion, but rather variance upon a number of points. This, _he said, clearly indicated the desirability of a general meeting where all - matters might be frtely discussed and a ma- jority vote obtained upon each que: tion separatel MAY BAR PLAYERS WHO DESERTED FOR SHIPYARDS Chicago, Dec. 11.—Baseball players of the American League who deserted their clubs last season for positions in.shipyards would be barréd from playing 'in the league if a resolution to be introduced at the mm;fimmeb' ing of the league tomorrow adopted.

Tresident Johnson said that while the club'owners did not favor reducing the présent player limit of twenty-five, they would not. carry any- more play- ers than absélutely necessary on the road trips and mu Lhe elub trainers probably will be home. The American executive fa- vors ajoint committes meeting With a committee from the National league to consider the problems confronting the fature of baseball, as proposed: by President Hevdler of the National League today. He preferred commit- tees of ‘three or four members to a joint meeting of the two leagues. Replying to the statement of John H, Farrell, secretary of .the National Association of Minor Leagues that he had “no authority” to negoriate with the. National Baseball Commission for the ~‘minor leagues, President i. R. Tearney of the Three I League, said tonight that he was appoinied chair- man of the committee at the annual meeting’ of the minor ieagues in Peo- ria, Il at which Farrell presidec. . BRITISH BOXERS LEAD IN , INTER-ALLIED TOURNAMENT London, Dec. 1l—An inter-allied boxing tournament in which men from the British and American forces par- ticipated was held here today. In the bantamweight ‘class, Jimmy Wilde, the British “fyweight”. cham- pion, representing the British army, won from Joe Lynch of the American army. In the lightweight class J. Mil- ler, British army, defeated A. R. Mit- chell, United States navy, while in the iwelterweight class A. Wilkinson, British army, won from Jake Abel, United States army. The contests were held in the Rougl Albert Hotel and the tournament was the largest ever staged there. The United States, England, Canada, New Zealand and South Africa all = were represented in the bouts at the eight championship weights. The mén fought in teams and the trophy for the winning team is a silver shield, the gift of King George.. The com- petition is to be conducted on the elimination principle and the ° final bout will take place Thursday, night. 11 and It is expected that Kinz George then be present and personally the trophy to the winning team.

In the heavyweight contest between Beckett and Cox the Englishman had all the better of the fighting, Cox be- ing slow and apparently not in the best of condition. Cox landed ome or two heavy blows on Beckett in the third round, bit the represetnative of the Royal Air Force gained a well deséry- €d victory on points. Jimmy ‘Wilde was at a disadvantage in’ height, reach and weight in his contest with Joe Lyneh, but neverthe- less the Britisher was awarded the de- cision on points. PROMOTERS SUE JESS WILLARD FOR $25,000 g:k. Dec. 11—Jess \vfl'ard New heavyweilht champion of t was made the defendant in . $25000 suit brought in the supreme court Dere today by two prominent promo- ters, Tom Jones and Jack Curley, who formerly acted as his managors. It is alléged that Willard ceased paying the two promoters a commis- sion of 10 per cent. of his income from boxing and theatrical exhibitions when he hnught the Jess Willard Wild West Show in June, 1917. In the bill of complaint Jones declared thay he and Ciitley were largely responsible for Willard's success, and stated. that she champion received $4,000 a week dur- ing the season of 1916 as:the star at- traction of “101 Ranch.” The' court dismissed the complaint on the ground that no_proof had been presented to show Willard’s income after buying the “wild west” Show. The plaintiffs’ attorneys said they had been unable to do this because Wil- lard had been out of the state and hiy counsel had refused to produce his books. They were allowed fifteen daysiin which to appeal: MADDEN'S TEAM TAKE® MEASURE OF LUCY'S Madden’s team mads dnes- day evening ‘at the Elks' alleys in tre B. P.
