Purje's performance was the high In meet that turned Into a cL UiTt IKK realization today than ever during the lifetime of the famous promoter. An offer of $4,000,000 for 75 percent of the stoclc in the National Exhibition Company, controller of the New York Giants In the National League, has been made to the three principal owners of the company by the directors of the Madison Square Garden Corporation.

The offer was taken under consideration by Charles A. Stoneham. president of the company; Francis X. McQuade, former treasurer, and John McGraw, manager of the team, after a discussion here yesterday with William F. Carey, new controller of the Garden affairs.

Although Carry refused to confirm all the dctr.ils outright for fear that publicity would spoil the deal, news of the negotiations leaked out, following a' conference here recently between Carey and McGraw, who flew to Miami Beach from Havana frv Vr i I vM8 I the season today the New York i i i 'i I went 11 Innings to a 6 6 tie. 1 i I IV Schalk's triple in the ninth tied I 4 iV I I the score for the regulars. if Batteries: I I I 1' 1 Regulars Ogden, il I '1 I Fitzsimmons.

The three own all but one quarter of tho Rtock in the company, tho other largest block, of 20 percent, was purchased recently by William F. Kenney, close friend of former Gov, Alfred E. Smith. Garden OmYluls in Miami rian the Purchase.

Garden directors, Including Richard F. Hoyt and James I. Bush, the principal stockholders, came to Florida recently to attend the Sharkey-Slribllng match next Wednesday night and formed plans for purchase of tho ball club. Another deal, in the event that all three of the prin cipal stockholders fall to accept the first proposition, involves the pur chase of 5t percent of the club from Stoneham tor $2,000,000. "The proposition of buying Into the Giants for $2,000,000 has been submitted to me, but nothing as yet has been done on it, Carey said in a telephone conversation with Garden ofucials in New York.

"I ex pect when I return to New York to give the matter my immediate attention. The situation has interesting possibilities." A meeting of the board of dlrcc-ors of the Oarden Corporation has been called for March 5, when all members of the board will have returned to New York, it was said here. Plans for purchase of the club contain the clause that McGraw shall remain as manager of the team. The disturbing element in tho situation, Garden authorities said here, was the refusal of McQuade to agree so far to any deal with Stoneham. McQuado recently was retired ns treasurer of the organization after a controversy with other officials of the club.

A long-standing agreement among the three principal owners, they said, prevented any one from selling hts share in the Giants without the consent of the other two. McQuade and Kenney Can Bloek the Sale. The popular conception Is that McGraw and Stoneham control together 55 percent of the baseball club. It is recognized, however, that McQuade, with the assistance of Kenney, controls sufficient stock to block the deal If he is not satisfied with the situation. For several years before his death' early this year, Rlckard attempted to purchase at different times both the Giants and the New York Yankees.

Tex always explained that personal differences with Stoneham prevented the deal. Th3 dream Of Rickard Was an I I liUUIHI rjVF PFVTC I BKVEM CENTS MENTIONED IN SALE CF CIANTS 3k 1 i IjB' Charles A.

Results of College Sport Contests 1 1 4r tj Referee Expects No Trouble From the Rules or the Men. By THOMAS HOLMES (Sfo Correspondent ol The Eagle.) Jacksonville, Fla. (En Route to Miami), Feb. 23 Lou Magnolia, chosen as the referee of the Sharkey-Strlb-bling bout at Miami, has been told that the decision as to the rules governing the fight will be put up to him. That's what he said as he talked to us while our fast train sped through the cotton fields of Georgia.

The conversation had turned to the rules under which the coming battle will be waged. So far, no rules for the bout have been outlined. Boxing is Illegal In Florida, except where bouts are staged under tne auspices oi tne Arnerican Legion, as the coming fight will be. Consequently fight procedure throughout the State is left wide open for local interpretation. "So far as I know," said Magnolia, "the New York rules will be in force as far as possible, although, I'm told, the decision will be left to me alone.

I suppose I'll go over the rules witn uempscy and a represen tative of each of the two fighters a day or so before the battle. It will be for the best interests of all con cerned if we know what it's all about. Sees Rules Much Alike. "But there isn't a possibility of any great difference of opinion. Boxing rules can't vary much.

In fact, the more I think of the coming bout the more I believe it will be easy to handle, and therefore I wonder why there was such a fuss over the selection of a referee. Of course, I feel honored by the selection, and swims at Miami Beach at this time of the year aren't at all hard to take." Magnolia is an Italian-American and a member of a Long Island council of the Knights of Columbus. But he feels none of the trepidation of an enemv invader as he speeds over the polished rails for Miami Beach. Religious wars ended centuries ago, so far as Magnolia is concerned. In spite of the fact that the Ku-Klux Klan has been reported as solidly behind Stribling In the coming battle, and that there have been vague threats of its influence in Florida, Magnolia doesn't look for the slightest bit of difficulty on that score.

"From what I've heard," Magnolia said as he gazed out on the landscape of Strtbling's native State, "the possibility of trouble on that score doesn't exist. It certainly shouldn't exist in any sort of sporting event." Crowd Like New York's. When the Stribllng-Mike McTigue fight of a few years ago and the alleged activities of the Klan on that occasion were recalled in the conversation. Magnolia shrugged his shoulders. "I never believed half the stories I heard of that fight," he said, "and even if they were true, the circumstances of the Miami bout are sure to be different.

"Why, from what I can make out, this coming fight won't be a bit different from an important heavyweight battle held in New York. The people who'll be sitting in the first 25 rows at Miami will be about the same as the people who sit in the first 25 rows at Madison Square Garden. I can't see the slightest possibility of trouble." Magnolia's eyes twinkled as he nodded his head in the direction of a friend sitting on the opposite side of the club car. "I introduced you to Dr. a few minutes ago," said the veteran referee.

"He has been a personal friend of mine for years. He is a neighbor of mine at Rockaway, and we've had hours of conversation on this train. Well, the Doctor is a Klansman. He makes no bones about it. He'll tell you himself.

And while we've talked about the coming fight for an hour at a time, the subject of possible prejudice wasn't even thought of." BAYNE SIGNS ON DOTTED LINE. Boston, Feb. 23 The sighed contract of Bill Bayne, left-handed pitcher, was received todav at the Boston Red Sox headquarters. Bayne, whose home Is in St. Louis.

came to the Red Sox two moattis ago on waivers from Cleveland, MAGNOLIA THINKS BIG BOUT WILL BE EASY TD HANDLE 1 sensational Informal gathering of. A. Nurml, the greatest Finn of them In the steeplechase. Paavo Is now running Is concerned. His excuse fact that he did not arrive until a brought a prompt "thumbs down" held a session on the Garden floor.

He Is suspended until he can appear before the registration committee and establish a bona fide alibi. Another foreigner, Edvin Wide of Sweden, won the two-mile run with plenty to spare in the fast time of 9:07 flat. Nurml Proved Real "Phantom Finn." Eino Purje won the laurels, the champolnship and the record in the two-mile steeplechase, but it was Paavo Nurml who stole all the thunder. Paavo last night transformed himself into a real "Phantom Finn." He was absent almost up to the start of the race. In fact, he was so absent that nobody knew where he was.

After 9 word came to he meet officials that he would not appear for the steeplechase. They went into indignant conference conference with the A. A. U. registration committee and the upshot was that Nurmi, who has been doing his best to hold up the Indoor season, hero of more records than one can count on his fingers and Olympic demigod, was unceremont- ously suspended from further ama-1 teur activity.

He will be called up to tell his story to the committee, i Paavo Only Has A Plebeian Cold. Hugo Qulst, impressario of ama- teurs and Pyle bunion derbies and other matters of great pumic moment, appeared in the press box to say that Nurml had been suffering from a very bad cold for the past four weeks, and to Judge by Hugo's gloomy countenance, Paavo last night was in thS advanced stages of galloping consumption. The greatest of all the Finns Is scheduled to run four miles at the American Legion meet Wednesday night. The suspension raised the question whether amateur athretes entered In a championship meet are expected to run in blankets, or on crutches or ui amDuiances, dui it was explained to me unofficially that the action of the registration committee was a formal procedure. It was taken as a belated move to shut off the wholesale scratches that have been recorded in feature events at practically every indoor meet oi thp vear.

Purje's debut as a steeplechaser was auspicious. He and his fellow Finn, Ove Anderson, a former champion In the event, lapped their field. Purje takes the barriers like a hurdler. He runs witn an easy stride, reminiscent of Willie Rltola. The race itself was a walkover.

Purje's substitution in the steeplechase was not really a replacement for the absent Nurmi. for the newest of the "Phantom Finns" had filed an entry for the evit. He ran the mile In 4:49 4-5 and the two miles in the record time of 9:55 2-5. He wiped out Willie Rltola's mark of 9 minutes, 59 2-5 seconds, which had stood since the meet at Louisville, Ky, In 1925. Conger Ilolds On To His Title.

It again remained for Ray Conger of the Illinois A. conqueror of Paavo Nurmi, to turn on the competitive fireworks. Ray ran himself into the championship and was the first of the 1928 kings successfully to defend his crown. Sam Martin of the Boston A. A.

got out in front from the bark of the gun and he stayed there until the last lap. Conger fought off the pack and coasted into second place, dogging Martin's heels, with the Rev, Harold C. Cutbill. also of the Boston A. until tonight the season's big bust as a comeback, drawing away to third place.

Two laps before the bell, Martin and Conger drew away, with the Boston boy fighting desperately to shake the champion. Ray, running as usual, with his head to one side, his mouth wide open in a grin, as though a championship 1,000 was Just a romp on a kiddle car, ate up the flying yards with his long, bean-pole legs and hung on. Martin's attempt to shake him netted him nothing. Within Reach Of the Record. As the bell rang for the last lap, Conger pulled up, going into the first turn.

He waited until they had passed the center and, straightening out, Jumped Martin and went away, to win by about 40 yards. Far in the rear come Cutbill, laboring, but hanging on gamely to third Mace. The "Flying Parson" got almost as big a hand from the gallery as the victor. After the timers had retired into their huddle, nodded their heads nd emerged again. It was found out why Conger had left Martin behind, as though his rival were nailed to the tracks.

The time for the quarter was 58 1-5 seconds; for the half, 1:58 2-5, and the 1.000, 2:13 1-5, just 2-5 of a second behind Lloyd Hahn's world's record. Ray shot through the tape as though he were finishing another leg of a mile relay. Wide Missed Some Opposition. Purje's switch from his advertised appearance in the tVo-mlle run may have cost Edvin Wide, swiftest of Swedish schoolmasters a world's record. Wide romped through hi field, which to a man of his caliber was a set-up.

He was led out at first by Leo Lermond. the defending champion, who arrneared, after refusing to run A. U. officials, who suspended Paavo all, for falling to come to the mark a man without a country, so far as was that he had a bad cold, but the few minutes before the race started from tne registration committee, who all week, arriving only yesterday afternoon from Boston under orders from W. T.

Kenny, president of the New England A. A. U. This second gesture of Insistence by the track officials on athletes, either running as entered or presenting a Joke-proof reason for their absence, made a grand impression. Leo fought for the lead from the start and drew Wide out with a first mile of 4:34.

But Leo didn't fin ish. He hung on In a manner which proved that Boston physicians are miracle men. Leo had been scratching himself out of the event on account of a bad cold. He quit last night on the same account. But before he stepped off the track he had run a rousing mile for a man with a congestion on the lungs.

Edwards Also Breaks Record. Wide took command after the mile and there wasn't any more race. He finished oiv the tail of his field, winner by about 165 yards. And, Incidentally, Edvin rubbed off one of Nurmi's records from the slate when he turned in that 9:07, it was Nurmi's championship record of 1925. The final of 600 again found Phil Edwards, the running "League of Nations," again master of the coun- tance.

Phil turned in a blazing 1:12 flat, gettlg out into the lead on the back turn of the first lap and hold- ing it. It was a new championship record and only two-fifths of a second behind Alan Hellfrlch's world's record of 1925. Sturdy Supplants Former Teammate. Fred Sturdy of Yale officially stepped into Sabin Can's shoes as national Indoor pole-vault champion with a climb over the bar at the end of a pole that was four inches short of Carr's world's record of last year but which was more than enough to win the event last night. He did 13 feet, 9 Inches, and failed In three tries at his former teammate's mark.

Barney Berlingerof the University of Penn was second with a leap of 13 feet. Berlinger was in form last night, but when the bar was raised to 13 feet, 4 inches, on his first try, he thrust his foot through a weak board about a yard from the slot and dove head first into the sawdust pit. That mishap seemed to sap his inspiration for playing heroics as a "monkey on a stick," as well It might. Ashley Pond of Yale was third at 12 feet, 6 inches. Daley Dethrones Sprint Champion.

The 60-yard dash witnessed the dethronement of Karl Wildermuth of Georgetown by Jimmy Daley of Holy Cross, who took the final into camp by a yard, with the slight Lyn- brook boy having his hands full to beat out Chet Bowman of the New ark A. C. for second place. Bob McAllister, the "Flying found his comeback pilgrimage snuffed out by the other three final ists, but Bob had his moment in the sun when he drove Daley out to the fastest time in his trial heat. Some thing of an upset was scored when Jimmy Quinn, the outdoor lntercoi legiate sprint champion, was shut out by Bowman and wtldermutn in their semi-nnai.

Eber M. Wells, the blond Boston A. A. timber topper, hauled Weems O. Baskln Jr.

of the N. Y. A. C. up short in the final of the 70-yard high hurdles, winning by a comfortable yard, and what was more, leading the defending champion ail tne wav.

Baskln got off to a poor start, but was closing in until tne lourtn nur-dle. He knocked that over, and thus ended his bid to catch the flaming Mr. Wells. Snmmarifi. 0-yrl dah, Binl Won by Jamn 8.

The Brooklyn team started 1th a one goal advantage, but fniled to add to It until late in the first chukker. when McAuslln nursed the ball In from a scrimmage. In the meantime the New Yorkers scored three on two tallies by Wise and one by Kellogg.
