Sid Terris Favored to Whip Phil McGraw in Battle Tonight at New York

Badger Basket Team Disbands for Holidays Bu Times Special MADISON, Wls., Dec. 23.—With three non-Conference games chalked up in the win column, Wisconsin’s basketball squad was disbanded for the Christmas holidays. Coach Meanwell will resume practice on Tuesday, Dec. 27, having ordered a group of twelve players to report on that date. This will give the Badgers a week to get back into shape for the Oregon Aggies game here Jan. 2. The progress made by the Cardinal cagers in their early contests has surprised even the most optimistic fans. Handicapped by ineligibility losses, Dr. Meanwell has used his midgets to the best of advantage and perfected a defense that has not been penetrated for a score of more than 18 points a contest. Coe College, Butler and De Pauw all have been defeated, and if the Badgers can upset the Aggies from Oregon in the first tilt of the new year, they will step into the Big Ten campaign with a clean slate. On Jan. 7, Meanwell will take his tossers to Columbus to ring up the curtain of the Western Conference season with the Buckeyes.

‘Wise Money' on Gotham Lightweight at 3 to 1 Odds. EXPECT SAVAGE MIXUP Ghetto Favorite on Trail of Mandell. BY FRANK GETTY United Press Sports Editor NEW YORK, Deo. 23.—A battle between two leading lightweights which not only is bound to be hairraising, but which may go a long way toward clearing up the situation in the 135-pound division, takes place tonight at Madison Square Garden when Sid Terris of New York meets Phil McGraw of Detroit. If Terris wins—and the “wise money” which so seldom calls the turn wrongly, makes him a 3-to-l favorte—the Ghetto ghost will be in a position to force a title bout with Mandell, elusive champion of the division. Third Meeting This will be the third meeting between the pair. Terris won a judges’ verdict the first time, although McGraw bounced him to the floor so often that Sid resembled a jumping jack. Their second meeting was a slam-bang battle—this little Greek from Detroit always indulges in slam-bang battles—and McGraw won on a foul. Terris, from a back-pedaling, clever jabber, has developed into quite a knockout artist in his own right, and as he has shown that he can hit as well as box rings around McGraw, the fight is considered by the experts as just about as good as over. The Detroit lightweight, however, is such a willing mixer and throws such a lot of punches, while sopping up punishment with never a backward step, that it would not be surprising if he were to slip over a right wallop and knock Terris out. McGraw Is Scrapper If Sidney elects to step in and trade punches witli Phil, it promises to be one of the best fights of the year. McGraw's battles with Stanislaus Loayza, the game, Dusky Chilean • lightweight were classics. They recalled the battles of other days, when Bat Nelson, Ad Wolgast and mighty lightweights of the past stood toe to toe and slugged away with never a thought of defense. If Sidney wins tonight, he is going to buy a battle with Mandell if it takes his last cent. Already, he and his manager have offered Eddie Kane, the champion’s manager, $60,000 for a chance at the title. Popular sentiment will force Mandell to meet the Ghetto favorite, and popular opinion is that Sidney will win the championship. WILL MANAGE TEXAS CLUB Pancho Snyder, former major league catcher, will manage Houston in the Texas League this coming season. Lou Little, Georgetown grid coach, says he thinks collegiate football is not over-emphasized.

Loren Murchison

On the road to recovery! Those are pleasant words to the nation’s sport fans who almost unanimously were rooting for Loren Murchison, star sprinter, to recover from his illness. The noted athlete was -stricken in Decatur, HI., recently and was in a critical condition for many days, physicians time after time almost giving up hope. Murchison’s stamina evidently has pulled him through his serious case of cerebrospinal meningitis.

Entries for the Century and Pritchetts’ New Year classic are coming In rapidly with Miller of Louisville. Ky.. getting in the first out-of-town entry. A batch of entries from Ft. Wayne arrived a close second. Local shooters who wish to enter these events should turn their entries In now as the rule of first come first served will be followed. Jerry O'Qrady made an offer for a squad of 180 or under average bowlers the other day, but after due consideration has decided that the Century classic should be run on the open-to-the-world basis. This means that every entry will roll from scratch. Mrs. Fulton of the R. C. Bradley team of the Ladles’ Social League received a poor “break” Wednesday. Rolling In the regular laegue games Tuesday night Mrs. Fulton had games oft 201. 201 ana 207, for a total of 609. and unfortunately this total was overlooked by the scribes. Mrs. Fulton has been among the leaders for the East several years and has turned in some irge totals, but this is her first “600” series in league competition.
