FIRE ENDANGERS LIVES OF GREAT RACE HORSES in Memoriam and Wise Counsellor Removed From Stable Which Burns in Churchill Downs Fire. By United Financial LOUISVILLE, Ky-, Jan. I, —ln Memoriam, one of the best 4-year-olds of the American turf, and Wise Counsellor, John S. Ward’s K-ntucky Derby candidate, are alive today only by; great good fortune, for both probably would have been destroyed had the $75,000 fire which destroyed two stables at Churchill Downs Sunday occurred at any other time of day.

As it was, the conflagration was discovered during the exercise hour in the John E. Madden stable soon after It had originated from an over-heated stove. Stable hands from neighboring barns rushed the thirty thoroughbreds stabled in the Madden bam to new places of refuge, but were unable to save any gear excepting that which was in use by a group of horses out for exercise. The flames spread so rapidly that Bob Gilmore, trainer for Carl Wiedemann, was barely able to get In Memorlam and his other charges out of the neighboring born before It, too, was destroyed. Quick work by the fire department, which worked in zero weather against a gale of wina, prevented the fire going farther, but Wise Counsellor and his stable-mates were removed from the stable next in line to one much farther away. As it turned out, the work of the firemen saved the shelter of the Ward string, but It took them until after dark to subdue the fire.

Basketball Problems

Ques. —A player makes a wild throw lor goal, the ball hits a piece of apparatus over the playing court, and is deflected, into the basket. Does the goal count? Alls. — Yes. If the eealing and apparatus are low, a ground rule should be made before each game to the effect that the ball is dead when It strikes either of these over the court, and that the ball shall be thrown up at center. In the absence of a ground rule the ball continues in play. Ques. —After the timeout when two free throws have been awarded to a team, suppose the timekeepers cannot see the ball at the instant the ball leaves the free thrower’s hands? Ans.—The referee should arrange with the timekeepers before the game for a signal. He can raise his hand when the thrower is ready for his last throw, and drop it the instant the ball leaves the thrower's bands. Ques. —In making a free throw, may the thrower’s feet leave the floor provided he does not advance beyond the free throw line? Ans.—Yes. Ques. —A player is fouled as he shoots for basket. The referee’s whistle blows while the ball is in the air. Does the goal count if made, and does he get two free throws in addition? An.s—Yes. If the ball has left the player’s hands w-hen the whistle blows, the goal counts. Tfyis is covered by Rule 7, Sec. 7. Note. Ques. —The penalty for personal fouls under Rule 15 states that in case of a double foul only one free throw shall be awarded to each team. Suppose Player A commits a personal foul on Player B while the latter is throwing for goal, and the officials award two free throws to B. Then, before B attempts his first free throw, a foul is called on B's team. What is the penalty? Ans.—B gets two free Miyows and A s team gets one. The ball is thrown up at center after the last free throw. In that the bill is thrown up at center, this is treated as a double foul, but It is not a doub’e foul as far as the penalties are cerned. The Riley Juniors want games with.teams playing In the 15-16-year-old class who have access to gyms. For games call Belmont 8529 and ask for George.

WILLS-GODFREY SCRAP IS PLANNED BY TEX Gotham Promoter Then Would Match Winner With Firpo— Has Other Bouts in Mind, By HENRY L. FARRELL United Press Staff Correspondent. NEW YORK, 7.—Renewed efforts are to be made by Tex Rickard this week to match Harry Wills and George Godfrey for a bout as a starter in a general heavyweight elimination tournament. Rickard would like to match the winner with Firpo and let Dempsey have the survivor of that match.

Little may come of the attempt, but Rickard said today he was still hopeful, despite his failure during several months of negotiations. The Priority Rights t “Firpo, Wills and Gibhpns are now claiming priority rights to a match with Dempsey,” Rickard said. “To satisfy them it would be necessary to have three heavyweight fights next summer. Three are too many. In fact, it is enough work to put over one big spectacle in a season. “Firpo, as far as I have been able to learn, 1b the only one of the three contenders who is willing to take the chance of proving his right to a match with Dempsey by fighting a real contender," Rickard said. "Wills asserts that his right is established and that he does not need to prove he Is the outstanding challenger. He is willing, however, to fight Gibbons or Jack Renault. Not Sure of Gibbons "I am not certain what Gibbons wants to do, and I have not made any serious efforts to get him a heavyweight match, as I think he belongs to the light-heavyweight class. "Firpo Is willing to fight Wills, Gibbons or any of the contenders, ar.d I would like to get him a match because he Is a good fighter and a great card. It Is true he was knocked out In two rounds by Dempsey, but he Is the only heavyweight who has knocked Dempsey off his feet since Jack won the title.” New Middie Captain By United Pres* ANNAPOLIS. Md., Jan. 7.— Edward B. Taylor of Lima, Ohio, has been elected captain of the 1924 Navy football team. He was the star end of last year's team and is the youngest player on the squad, being only 19.

MAJOR MANAGER’S BERTH WAS GOAL OF GEORGE BORNS Boston First-Sacker Sorely Disappointed When Fohl Was Appointed, By NEA Sert'ien BOSTON, Jan. 7. —One of the reasons for the Boston Red Sox placing Qeorgo Burns on the baseball market dates back to the appointment of Lee Fohl as manager of the club. When President Quinn failed to renew the contract of Frank Chance to lead the club in 1924 Burns, who has managerial aspirations, set out to land the position. Popular In Boston, Burns pulled every string that would impress upon Owner Quinn the wisdom of making him the new manager. Incidentally Burns had the support of tho press, who urged his appointment as a move that would meet with the approval of fandom as well as produce results. However, it was almost a foregone conclusion that Fohl would manage the Red Sox when Quinn became president. It is said the announcement of Fohl as manager was a distinct disappointment to Burns. The fact that Quinn never wants a dissatisfied player on his club is probably one of the reasons why Bums was placed on ,the market by Boston.
