NEW YORK, Jnn. 31-Ocorge Grant, the manager of Kid McCoy, returned to New York this week after havlitff been on the road for about a week scouting for matches for "The Kid." Manager Grant did not return empty handed. , He made a six-round match for Mc Coy against Jim Jeffords for February j nt the Broadway Athletic Club in Philadelphia. Me ulso made another deal Which will result In McCoy meeting the winner" of the. Mahor-Choynskl fight, which will occur at the Washington Club in Ililla delphla on January l!li.

The bantam championship of the world Is to be decided before the Metropolitan Athletic Club of Detroit, Mich., Febru ary 27, the contestants being Harry Forbes of Chicago, the holder of the American title, and Andy Tokell, the possessor of the English title. Corbett Wants Jim Jeffries. . NEW YORK. Jan. 31.-Jlm Corbett Is not going to spare any expense In try- nig to Induce Jim Jeffries to meet him In , unother light. Corbett, like a good many other people, believes Jeffries is afraid of him, and so the ex-c'aamylon ha. hit 6n a novel plan to make the big ex fiollermaker agreo to arrange a match with him. Corbett' s idea is to have a three-sheet poster printed and posted In ,every town in which Jeffries appears. It will read something like this: : JAMES ' J.CORBET, : : THE ONLY MAN : : JIM JEFFRIES IS : Z AFRAID TO MEET. : By that plan Corbett thinks Jeffries' Ire will be aroused, and that then he will make the match. Corbett Is in Al bany this week, and says Jeffries' ex ; cuse for not lighting him because he i beat him once is flimsy. Ho says 'he '' should not be denied a second meeting any more than Sharkey and Fltzslmr mons. Corbett has not given up hope of meet ing Jeffries. Ue works In, a gymnasium fvery day, and in a letter to a friend In thin cltv rava ha would he In condition to go Into a battle with Jeffries a month from now. He weighs 196 pounds, nearly 15 pounds more than he ever weighed before beginning hard work for a bout. Maybe "Fitz" and Ryan. BUFFALO, Jan. 31.Robort Fitssim mons, ex-heavyweight champion of the world, and TAimmy Ryan, the leader' of the mlddlewelghts, are likely to meet in a 20-round battle before the Fort Eri Athletic Club here the third week in May. Manager Jack Herman of tf-.e club has offered a purse of $25,000 or to per cnt of the receipts to the fighters for such a battle. Rj-an has. .already wired his ac ceptance and Kitzsimmons has signified his willingness to consider such a propo sition. According to the proposal, the men were to meet at 160 pounds. After receiving Ryan's Immediate - ac ceptance of the offer Herman wired Fitz slmmons and the latter replied as fol lows: "Jeffries and myself are working our way east. J& be In yourcltv within. liirPO WfcfcKS. Win think tne jirojjosnon over and write jou soon. Will the au thorities 'allow us to fight? Answer by letter. BOH F1T.STMMONS." Herman is confident that FHz will agree to the match, which. If made, will undoubtedly prove one of -tho.., greatest pugilistic attractions ever offered to tho public. If Fitzslmmons decides to turn down tile offer the same proposition will be mads to "Philadelphia Jack" O'Brien. Mr. John Drew is one of the few well known actors who has had an athletic career and who took up athletics for the pleasure to be derived from such work. The effect of his constant atten tion to them is visible in every line of his trim physique and every movement of lils lithe, graceful . carriage. Wlh. Mr, Drew it wss no cuse of taking to exer cise to overcome the tendency of corpu lency, which Is the bane of every theat rical star, whether male or -female. "It Is such an old story with me," said Mr. Drew In hjs dressing-room at the Academy last night, "that I can hardly enthuse over athletics, but as long as it keeps me from becoming too stout and keeps everything on here (gently pot ting his luxuriant growth of brown iwin 1 find both pleasure und profit In athletic sports. And Mr7T)rew Is a real athlote. In his cas there Is no playing at it in a hotel room with rubber hands or weights. He does not amble around a golf course for the sake of posing or becadso the pur suit of the little white ball Is the proper thing. Running, hurdling, rowing, swim ming, tennis, fencing and polo make a repertoire. His proficiency would de light the heart of many on athlete of more pretensions. Hut Mr. Drew is rather modest when It comes to talking of his athletic career, fie acknowledges to having begun at the ago of 15 years- his speed trials in the sprinting lunes and over the hurdles. At 19 lie toop up rowing, and later developed tastes for fencing and the polo pony. For many years he was a member of the New York. Athtwtic Club, and only left that organi satlonSp become prominent In tho- Rac quet and Tennis Club of that city. . "Surely, xJdr. Drew." was suggested, "you made sduje records In your early campaigns on athletic fields?" "Well," and Mr. Drew smiled modestly. "I have a few- medal and a medal or two won In fencing bouts." but bcyoml. the bare statement ho coBid not be In duced to tell of bis successes It was at the Racquet and Tennis Club that Mr. Drew developed a penchant for fencing, as the club has an exceptionally line master of fence for Instructor. Mr. Drew acknowledged that ho had played golf, but its "slow activity" palled upon htm. He Is a member of the St Andrews Club, the oldest golf club of this country. Army and Navy to Play. WASHINGTON, D. C, Jan. 30. The annual Army and Navy football game will be played as usual next year, de spite recent talk to the contrary. It was said the War Department would stop the game because of the In conveniences It caused tho officials, who found it difficult to please everybody in the distribution of invitations. Capt. P. E. Pierce, I'nlted States Army, chairman of the football com mittee of the West Point Military Acad emy, Is In Washington to confer with the Navy Department on the details for the next game. "The War Department has no Inten tion of stopping the annual football game, or I would have been Informed," says Capt. Pierce. "Not only will you find West Point and Annapolis mixing it up on the foot ball field in Philadelphia next fall, but you will find a squad in every army post In the country. It's a soldier's game. the game for soldiers, and the soldiers wi41 stick to It. "When one writes that the big foot ball game is to bo declared off, as has been written, It provokes but a smile from those, who know. "Why, the-.West Point football team Is the pride of every United States sol dier, no matter lh , what part of the world he may be stationed. "The soldiers money and the officers money are what support the squad,- and every fellow who wears the blue swells with pride when his football team is mentioned. "The same way with thp Navy team. Every man-of-war In every part of the world sends Its contributions to the grid Iron warriors. All the Jaekles are inter ested and they would Assist that the game go on."

Mr. Dwyer has ! already taken up tin- task of preparing ' the list of .stake events for the comini. i season, and it is said will hang up a J5.ti(in stake as the attraction on tin ! opening day. At Saturday's meeting tfu stockholders discussed at length the proposed value of the stakes and agreed that they would average as much in tie long run as those at several other local tracks. Krom an luMhoritive source It was learned that the purses of over night events would be In the neighbor hood of $80(1 each, and that the handi caps' would call for $1,000 and ll.lioii each. It was only after an earnest ap peal that Mr Dwyer e msented to take hold of the Metropolitan track. Munroc Was pasy. The New York sport followers selected Tony West, the well-known middle weight, who boxed frequently In Port land, to "try-out" Jack Muuroe, who re cently secured much newspaix r notoriety by slaying the four-round limit with Champion Jeffries ut llutte. In the three round that West sparred with Munroc he had no difficulty In reaching the miner with effect. Munroc showed only 11U" blow that he could d liver with any kind of dezt rity, and thai was a right to the Jaw. Any ot the top-notch heavyweights could easily have u Voided this by using a defense whb h Munroc employs to ward off the blows of Ids opponent. West never had the reputation of being a severe body fighter, but It was Just like saying ' Jack Kublnson" In reaching the vllal parts of Munro- s body.

UHSTON Mass. Jan. !. Whether the tiottlng trucks comprising the Grand Circuit .lie to remain under the Jurisdic tion of the National Trotting Associa tion, or are to operate Independent of that organization, will be definitely da UmvWJ - .h. mrrttmr n the- UiunJ Circuit stewards now In session here. The secession movement was started hist November, when representatives of all the Grand Circuit tracks met la New York for the purpose Of organizing an association independent of the National Trotting Association. The immediate progress of the movement was blocked by the persuasive eloquence of Senator Ha I ley of Texas, who advised delay. " While disclaiming any desire to an tagonize or disrupt either the National or American Association, the promoters of the Independent movement declare that a new organization s necessary for the good of the sport. It la necessary, they explain, that new rules providing for better discipline and the punishment of dishonesty shall be formulated and promptly and rigidly applied. It is de clared that numerous trotting abuses' have been allowed to grow up under Na tional Trotting Association control that arn Inimical to the success of the in vestments of mile track owners, asd that the present conditions are Intol erable. Those most actively concerned. In the movement for on Independent or ganization are H. M. Ilanna, W. O. Pol lock and II. K. Devereux of Cleveland. The leuding spirits of the National Trotting Association are making stren uous cffurts to defeat the new move ment, and among oilier things they promise n complete reformation Of the evils of the trotting turf. Still further, they offer, rather than have tretting con trol split tip between two organizations of antagonistic tendencies, to turn tha control of the National Trotting Asso ciation over to the Grand Circuit track owners. Whether these efforts toward pacification will prove successful re mains to be seen. Those acquainted wan ine situation are or iue opinion mac the Independent association. If formed at all. will not be formed In time to ex ercise Jurisdiction over the Grand Cir cuit during the present year. In fact. If the association is not organized at the meeting now in session, the likeli hood is that the whole movement will be permitted to slumber until next .fall. Scores MUde at Tourney.
