of n heavyweight title match between
Max Schmcling and Young Strlbllng

Some of the more optomistic of the
experts voiced tho opinion today that
the bout would bo "mado" within
24 hours, but the more conservative
were Inclined to believe that several
minor odds and ends would have to
be disposed of first.
Certainly there were definite indi
cations that "Pa" Stribltng, father
m.neger of tho Macon. On., heavy
weight, and promoters for the Hearst
milk fund were closo to an agree
ment. Schmcling already Is under
contract to the milk fund and no
trouble is anticipated from that
quarter.
According to best available advices,
the bout, if all goes well, wilt bo
held next June In Detroit, Cleveland,
Philadelphia or Jersey City.

May Be Coach
At California
ANNAPOLIS, Md.. Jan. 12 P)
William A. Ingram, football coach
at the naval academy for the last
five years, is leaving Annapolis to
coacn eisewnere, presumably at the
University of California.
Captain Henry C. Cooke, director of
athletics, announced that "Navy
Bill" had resigned by telegram and
said details must come from Ingram,
now at bis home at Jeff ersonvl tie,
Ind.
At. Jeffersonvillo Ingram said he
had resigned: that he Intended to
continue coaching and. that the
school which employed him would
make the announcement In the near
future.
Ingram was a gridiron and rowing
star for Navy, and later football
coach at William and Mary college
and University of Indiana. J
There have been reports that he
and navy athletic authorities dis
agreed over the terms of his con
tract. During last year's spotty sea
son he was under a one-year con
tract. He asked for a three-year con
tract, friends said, and the navy
offered him one of two years. .
Ingram has been mentioned fre
quently as a possible successor to
Price. Two weeks ago it was re
ported that he visited California.

Professional wrestling, as a sport,
has been held up in derision by the
experts In many parts of the land,
yet with comparatively little bally
hoo to stir them, some 20,000 cus
tomers of the cash variety literally
rioted for admission to the most re
cent exhibition put on by the roly
polies in New York's Madison Square
Garden.
The contrast was sharp Indeed,
with the sparse and extremely un
enthuslastlc turnouts for many re
cent prize -fighting programs In the
same arena.
The explanation, if one is neces
sary, seems to be that the wrestlers,
regardless of their toupe, clique or
combination for which they perspire,
furnish satisfactory action and ex
citement. So long as they are given
an entertaining show, the customers

D-tmouth yielded the mat leader
ship to Michigan when Sonnenberg
was somewhat disabled and beaten by
George for a good-slued portion of
the heavyweight wrestling 'champion
ship claims.
George, a good-looking youth of 25
who wrestled for the U. S. A. In the
1928 Olympics and won numerous
championships for Michigan, found
the grappling game much more lucra
tive than engineering.
His rise to rank as a champion has
been swift and dramatic. When he
was graduated at Ann Arbor in 1020
he had little or no thought of turn
ing "pro." Opportunity beckoned,
however; he made a "hit" with the
wrestling forces beaded by Lou Darp
at Los Angeles and in less than mg
year gained the match in which he-
defeated Sonnenberg.
George lost no time hitting the
trail East to capitalize his victory
but the 218-pound Buffalo boy is not
likely to have a chance soon to show
what he can do against so experi
enced a grappler,as Loncios, recog
nized as world's champion in New
York and Pennsylvania. They are
members of riv.il groups and it seems
to be axiomatic in professional
wrestling that business competitors
do not mix in the public arenas.
h. B. Mclntyre calls attention to
an erroneous news story reference to
Nebraska's conquests of Notre Dame
on the gridiron, giving 1023 and 1924
as years of Cornhusker victory. As
this column recently noted, Nebraska
downed the Irish in 1922, 1023 and
1925. The Four Horsemen of 1924,
at their peak, galloped rough-shod
over the Cornhuskers to the tune of
34 to 6.
