Carppntlcr ten-round
match to be staged here. This bid ia
far In advani-p of the one made by Tex
Tlickard and praUuliy puts tne iew

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. Curley, it is under
stood, cabled that he has things well
under way and that be hopes to get
the consent of the French government
to brlag Carpentier here.
In Bidding Mood.
" Andrews was In the bidding mood

- Andrews' wound up his business "f
the day by closing two matches with
Freddie Welsh. One will be a 10 round
affair between the champion .and
Richie Mitchell In this city on January
IB; the other will he a 20 round con
test in New Orleans between this pair,
the fight being to a referee s decision.
Mitchell is so sure that he can beat
the champion he is going; to post $15,
f 000 and stage the show himself, allow
ing pojninlck" Tortorlch 10 per cent of
the profits for the use of the club.
, When Welsh signed for the Milwau
kee bout htr InsiKteV on a clause in the
articles that In the event he is knocked

opponent. This is conclusive prooi
that Weleh -fears Ttlchle's punch.
AUSTRALlAPTBOXER is
' ANXIOUS TO SHOW HIS
WARES TO U. S. FANS
By H. C. Hamilton.
New York. Jan. 6 (tJ. J T.es
Darcy. 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. He, would
Spit- the Australian champion against
George Chip, Jack Dillon or Billy
j Miske. Other promoters have 'made
offers fully as tempting.
'" XaTttad to Join Army.
. ' Action on the ultimatum is ex
pected by Monday.
The pugilist who left his native land
flat on Its back in the midst of war
today said probably he would join
Lwhen he gets ready to do or die for his
Kins; ana country. Kesponaing to in
v Vltatlon from Captain Bobby Kerr.
" 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. Darcy, he believed, would mak-;
.a fine addition.
