This bid ia far In advani-p of the one made by Tex Tlickard and praUuliy puts tne iew York promoter out of the running. An drews who has quite an edge In the Btaglnff of this content stated - today following a cable from Jack Curley who Is in Pari, that he believed the match will go through. Shortly after Andrews made the bid h displayed a contract s!gned by Jess Wlllard in which be agrees to battle the Frenchman. He need not worry bout the champion because the Wll lard Interests are 50-50 on the promot ing of the show.

Australian pugilist, is getting his peeve up, lie wants to fight and he wants to do it inside of six weeks. Tex Rlckard has been in formed, so Harry's manager. Tim O'Sullivan, lold the United Press to night, that unless he produces a match the two will get busy and ac cept some offer made by another pro moter. O'Sullivan " wanted it understood he wan not trvintr to force Rlckard into an uncomfortable position, but wald he and Darcy both realized feeling of the American public. Xlokard Holding On. "The people want to see Dare- in action and we're going to please them if It's possible," -he said. -Rickard lias been putting us off with promises of a match with Carpentier until we can't wait any longer. He must do something else." Darcy would have, no . trouble in Vetting a match for. almost any price, but It Is hardly probable Rickard will let the bout slip past him. Although he-has no place in. which the fight might be staged, ho has been figuring for some time on the erection of an arena In New York.' Tftm Anrtrw tho MlU'niikf nro- moter, has offered Darcy a flat guar antee of $15,000 or a guarantee of $12, 600 and a percentage of the receipts i for. a bout in Mllwauitee.

" commander of the Two Hundred and Fifth Sportsmen's Battalion at Hamll V tOn..Ont, he said lie would be greatly pleased to enter his organization. Tim 0'Sullivan backed this by saying he too probably would Join that battalion. Kerr won the 200 meter race at the Olympic eamfes when they were last held In England, and for many years - lias , been .Canada's champion sprinter. - When war broke out he began to or ganize a battalion composed entirely 1 of men prominent in sports of some aort.
