23-(SpectaI Three knockout. were among the features a Bidding for a Bout. Cleveland, Detroit, and Jersey City are being considered as for the heavyweight match between Stribling and nrxt summer. Chicago, first considered as having the inside track, is upon the entertainment coldly because of the provision that a jrt of the proceeds will go to a New York charity. Chicago r.

charity begins at home. New York is not available Schmeling is In disfavor for his unwillingness to meet Sharkey. What is going on now is what goes on preceding every big weight affair. The promoters send up trial balloons, by mentioning various cities, to see what the reaction will be. Tex Rickard, prior to many big bouts, was always bothered ty oilers from Havana, London, Australia, and other places, hile having his agents scouting the prospects In some of the large Amerieau cities.

In staging a heavyweight championship bout the promoter must consider many angles. He must first inquire into the possibilities of a crowd; he must learn the official lay-out, whether there is a chance that he will have to make concessions that ruin the prospects of a fair rrofit; he must sound out the sentiment of the community. The promoter must line up the support of the business people who will profit from the fight, hotel men, restaurant men, Tnorrhants. He must learn what attitude the press of the town proposes as a site, will take. This is what is happening now.

Unconsciously, Chicago, City, Detroit, and Cleveland are bidding for the bout. Th city that wins it will be made to feel that it Is lucky. On the whole It will be, too, for few affairs advertise a town as flashily as a heavyweight fight.

Town Hall. This word about the beautiful arena in Detroit, wherein fcnrkey, boxing and conventions are held, should interest Town Hall advocates in Pittsburgh so that they may guard against the sad experiences in Detroit, and naturally will tickle the antagonists of the Town Hall. Those persons who are fighting row about where our $6,000,000 hall la to be eventually situated in also be interested. Detroit spent $2,500,000 on their arena. It was put up by private investors.

It is said all the original investors by this time 't completely out of the project and that the banks are in charge. It is reported reliably by Pittsburgh hockey men who recently were in Detroit that the arena can be purchased for and that sometime soon the thing may be put up at auction and sold to the highest bidder. The high bidder will not only get the actual property, but he win also be handed two hockey teams and the franchises that jvoicrt territorial rights. Some errors, it is said, were made in the management of the arena. For example, boxing interests offered $75,000 a year or the boxing concession, but instead of sub-letting this the i-tna management attempted boxing promotion with sad results.

Tr: management also operated two hockey teams, one a major outfit, and the other a minor. Both teams are having poor HS.OH. Sponsors of our local Town Hall may get the shivers from ill this, bat they likely save themselves from worry on the score that the voters declared In favor of a Town Hall and provided, tiro eh a bond Issue, for its creation here. Furthermore, there are Town Hall advocates who frankly tij that even if the venture here loses money, something on the tiit of adding to Pittsburgh's facilities Tor amusement will be had. Thtv argue that a possible deficit may be viewed in the light of Meits in other endeavor promoted for the general weal.

Detroit's story Is a sad one, and perhaps an extreme one, but it should serve well the mea in charge of our hall when they wm to parceling out concessions. That the odds are against the local hall maintaining Itself idmltted and realised by the majority. It would be well to memher this fact when, after the hall Is constructed, the figures It rd begin to appear. What we may lose, however, in this direction may be gained others. If It helps to attract new people and enterprises which enrirh the ritr it will be well worth while.

Now that Roy Schooley's "Galloping Ghosts" of the hockey realm are seemingly safely entrenched in a play-off position and destined to share in the post-season spoils as the result of a sensational homestretch drive that has found the Jackets unbeaten in nine consecutive games, the canary-clad skaters are aiming at a higher position in the standing and hope to reach their objective before another week passes by. When the Jackets, headed by the indomitable departed for a three-game road schedule last Thursday night, they were in fifth place, a half game behind London in fourth and a game arear Cleveland in third. Yesterday the travelers checked back in the home port in undisputed possession of third place, a half game atop both the Indians and Tecumsehs, who jointly occupy fourth place, and only a game and a half out of second place, now held by Windsor, who will form the opposition for the Jackets on the Du-quesne Garden ice Thursday night. If the Reid-conched athletes can keep their brilliant record Intact at the expense of the Bull Dogs they will be only a half game out of the runner-up rung Friday morning, leaving them a golden opportunity to cut further into the leaders by adding London to the victim list here Saturday night. The Jackets' current streak of five victories and four ties in their last nine games is by far the best stretch recorded by any club in the league this season and it is generally accepted around the circuit that un- less something unf orseen bobs up In DUKE LINEUP KEPTJNTACT Davies to Depend On Crippled Warriors Against W.Va.

Although Captain Brud Stephens is hampered by an injured knee and both Ganzy Benedict and Bunk Mc-Geever are physically below par. Coach Chick Davies does not contemplate any changes in the Du-quesne University lineup. Davies put his men through a heavy afternoon of practice yesterday In preparation for tomorrow's game with West Virginia University at Morgan-town. The Dukes play only one game with the Mountaineers this season and they will try their utmost to make the meeting a win, A large body of students and alumni rooters will accompany the team to the West Pirginia University gymnasium.
