PLANS UNDER WAY FOR WILLS VS. LENGLEN TENNIS MATCH IN WEST

Distribution of Gate Receipts | Apparently Only Barrier to Proposed Encounter. PYLE DEMANDS QOJN Bit TPrrse CHICAGO, Notk 30.—Mile. Suz.7*ae Lenglen will V)t play a tennis mTSch with Helen Wills unless her manager, C. C. Pyle, in her behalf, receives a portion of tlie ga e receipts, he told the United Press here today. flu United Press NEW YORK, Nov. 30.—The distribution of gate receipts is the sole barrier in the proposed tennis match between Helen Wills, former American woman champion, and Suzanne Lenglen, as far as the American Lawn Tennis Association is concerned, ,T. W. Merserau, president of that body, said today. "The playing of the match,” Merserau told the United Press, “would depend in the last analysis upon precedent. “Where an amateur plays a professional, just as in the case of purely amateur matches, the American Lawn Tennis Association, under its rules, demands the entire receipts he devoted solely to tennis purposes.” “No split nor payment of salaries to contestants beyond orthodox expenses would he allowed. “If this matter could he arranged,” Merserau said, “it is improbable the would withhold its sanction of the match.” " But whether C. C. Pyle, manager of the French star and her professional tennis troupe, would permit the fee-less match is a matter over which tennis enthusiasts were conjecturing today. Merserau said he had not yet received a petition from the California Lawn Tennis Association, reported to he negotiating for the match, for sanction from the national organization. TO ASK SANCTION California Association to Petition National Body for Permit. Bn l'vlted Press SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 30. Helen Wills may again he seen in action against Suzanne Lenglen if negotiations now being carried on through the California Lawn Tennis Association are successful. The State body has been asked to obtain sanction for the match from the United States Lawn Tennis Association. If the national ruling tennis organization gives its approval it is possible that the meeting can lie arranged. The French net marvel is now in the West on her professional tour and is due in this section next week. HELEN DELIGHTED Miss Wills Says She Would Welcome Opportunity. Bii/ United Press B BERKELEY, Cal., Nov. 30. Helen Wills, former national woman’s tennis champion, would be “delighted” to meet Suzanne Lenglen, French title-holder, in a match next month. Miss Wills told the United Press today that while she hadn't been of fieially informed of the plans under way to bring her and the French ace together again, the proposition has her approval. “If the tennis officials can arrange it satisfactorily, nothing would please me more,” said Miss Wills. “I haven’t thought about it much as I have been very busy with my Studies. “I didn’t even know that Miss Lenglen would be here so soon, but would be glad to play her by the middle of December. I have been practicing a little of afternoons, but haven’t my old form hack yet.”

WALKER, FLOWERS BATTLE Middleweight Crown at S'iake in Chicago 10Rounder Friday. By Clark B. Kelsey, United Press Correspondent CHICAGO, Nov. 30. —Mickey Walker, former welterweight champion. will attempt to gain the middleweight crown here on Friday night, when he faces Tiger Flowers, colored champion, who took the title from the late Harry Greb. The bout is a scheduled ten-round affair. Walker is given an even chance, despite his showing after he dropped his welter title to Pete Latzo at Scranton. Walker will be fighting at the 160pound mark, which will not necessitate the boiling out process which weakened him during his final days as sultan of the welterweights. On the other hand the “Georgia Deacon” will have to dispose of eight pounds, or there won’t be a fight. And 1 eight pounds is enough to weaken any fighter. When Walker was in his prime he was called the greatest fighter—per pound—in the American ring. He has always been a rushing, slugging bruiser, and it will take that kind of a man to get to Flowers. If Walker attempted to stand off and box the Georgian, he wou.d have no chance, experts hold. Flowers outpointed Sailor Huffman here last week, and out of his bag of tricks he pulled a backhand slap, which is strictly illegal, but was allowed by the referee. That blow probably will he barred in the Walker bout, if Walker’s manager, Jack Kearns, has to see to it before the fight starts. Walker will be meeting a man who is faster than most of his recent opponents. Recently Chicago’s favorite welterweight, Shuffle Callahan, was slapped silly by Walker.

O'Brien, anchor man for the Bar- j basol No. 2 team, had a wonderful I chance when lie got away for games j of 245 and 255 for an even 500, but dropped to 170 in his final effort and j had to be content with 670 for his . night’s work.

TUNNEY ‘PINCHED’ IN N. Y. Violation of Boxing Ordinance Causes Champ's Arrest by Commission. flu United Press NEW YORK, Nov. 30 —Gene Tun ney, the gentlemun boxer, ran afoul of the law Monday night. Gene was served with a summons charging him with engaging in an unlicensed boxing exhibition after his first ap pearanee at a Broadway theater. The champion ignored the summons. A police lieutenant and two detectives were standing in the wings of the theater when Tunney appeared and took him to the station house with them after his act. Shows Teni|H*r The scholarly boxer showed some of Bis Irish temper. “This Is a downright shame, positively ludicrous, ludicrous, ludicrous," he stormed. “That,” said one of the detectives to the other, “is w r hat they garnish a minute steak with at the fauncy night clubs.” “Gentlemen, gentlemen," Tunney implored, “can't this thing he prolonged.” The champion then confided to the officers that he had a dinner engagement with a “very dear friend” who was sailing to Europe the next day. “I can’t possibly go to the station house at this time,” he continued. Warm Words Eddie Cury, spokesman for the boxing commission which had asked that action be taken against Tunney. stepped up. “You’ll have to come along,” he said. “Then I’ll come,” said Tunney. “I'll come if only to feed the vanity of a big, swell-headed individual on the boxing commission. I’ll come, hut it’s persecution. It’s an outrage.” To the station house Tunney went,
