But the local mentor realizes that (“irregular things happen regularly” jand his team will take no chances in Nits conflict with the lowly Magicians. Lost Nine Games Minot this year has played 15 ‘games—and it has lost nine of them.

But those who have écei: them perform say that they are la snappy team, smart and cool on the floor, able to work with surprising ‘smoothness.

Christner, aged heavyweight from Akron, will make his second appearance in Madison Square Garden tomorrow night against Paulino Uzcudun. The bout 4s scheduled to go through 10 rounds. If the aged Akronite can get over the paralyzing punch that sent Knute Hansen into the discard and that came close at times to starting Jack Sharkey along the same road, Christ- ner will have at least a claim to being the hardest puncher in the heavy- weight ranks. Paulino has taken it from. nearly © of them but he has yet to recline on the canvas while the referee counts 10.

Boosting Resorts New By-Product of HeavyweightGame Mantle of Luck Which Sheathed Rickard Has Fallen Over Garden Group Miami Beach, Fla., Feb. 21.—(4)— The mantle of luck that seemed to sheath Tex Rickard’s shoulders in life apparently has fallen in blanket fashion at his death over the entire Madison Square Garden corporation. Scarcely a month ago the directors of the Garden organization, argued for days the feasibility of carrying out Rickard’s dream of an outdoor heavyweight contest. The plan, when originated, seemed feasible to none but Rickard and even he had his doubts. It is no secret now that Tex, before he died, told the directors of his or- ganization that the battle of the Everglades, featuring Young Strib- ling, the slugging Georgian, and Jack Sharkey, of Boston, must be consid- ered in the light of his own personal experiment. If any profits were made on the affair, the corporation would receive them, any loss Tex planned to foot himself. Seemed Hopeless Proposition But, when the old master of the ballyhoo died, the Garden directors could see little reason, with Rickard’s genius gone, for carrying out what seemed so helpless a proposition. And now from an entirely unex- pected source comes the promise that. the Garden corporation unwittingly has stumbled into a new by-product of boxing, a discovery that may prove one of the most prosperous in the history of the sport instead of a fi- nancial failure. _ Other cities in the south are cast- ing envious eyes at the publicity that has boomed this city even beyond the exciting days of 1925 and 1926. Al- ready Bill Carey has received propo- sitions from cities in California and other parts of Florida, but Tampa on the west coast seemed to have out- distanced all the rest. Carey was amazed at an unofficial offer of $500,000 from the rival resort ment next winter besides the waters of Tampa Bay. The money was of- fered the Garden corporation, he said, merely for the staging of a match in that city without thought of a share in the profits. a) Fistic Goose Appears it may prove that Rickard, at molding the game of box- his needs and desires, may have overlooked the most proiftable sideline of all while the Garden, led into carrying out the promoter's plan through respect for the dead leader and desire to maintain prestige, has stumbled upon the fistic goose that’ may lay many golden eggs.

Malloy entered the long-smoulder- ing dispute between Harmon and Pro- moter Jim Mullen for fistic promo- tional supremacy in Chicago by an- nouncing he had a priority claim to Laughran’s services. The state boxing commission, which has given Harmon Pprovisionary permission to stage the battle, asked Malloy to make a formal claim for. official consideration. The action added a third stumbling block for Harmon's plans. The com- mission has ruled it will not permit the match until Walker's manager, Jack Kearns, posts a $25,000 forfeit, insuring that Walker will defend his middleweight crown against Ace Hud- kins of Nebraska at Las Vegas, Nev., July 4. Loughran, too, is expected to shy from the match, as he is gun- ning for the heavyweight crown. Loughran is expected to confer with Harmon today or tomorrow. Meanwhile Mullen was proceeding with his plans of cutting a large hole in the pockets of Chicago fight fans with his match between Tom Heeney, the New Zealand heavyweight, and Otto Von Porat of Chicago March 12 —the day before. Harmon’s proposed show. The Heeney-Von Porat. bout undoubtedly will trim the attendance at a Loughran-Walker match because of the conflicting dates. Mullen lost a skirmish with Har- mon yesterday, however, when the state commission granted Harmon Permission to match Tony Canzoneri, New York featherweight and junior lightweight, and Ray Miller of Chi- cago for his March 13 card.

MADE GOOD FOR OTHER TES*1 THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE e'No Chances in Minot Game Saturday | Jack Sharkey Says He Is in the Fight Game to Win and Make Dough VIA KAYO ASHON Refuses to Name Round in Which He Will Put Young Stribling to Sleep WANTS TO LIVE IN SOUTH Admits He Gets Lots of Razzing but Doesn't Mind as Long as He Is Paid By HENRY L. FARRELL Miami Beach, Fla. Feb. 21.—The &harkey fellow, who always hss been full of mad, is a most unusual and tractable fellow as he trains for his fight with Willie Stribling, Feb. 27. With a forced smile, Sharkey says: “I feeb swell with the world. Every- thing is great. I have no troubles. “I've never been treated better in my life. Even in Boston, I've never been treated as I have down here. You know, I didn’t get much atten- tion in Boston when that Maloney was the big shot around there and even after I knocked his ears off they still considered me as an outsider. “To tell you what I mean: I bought a big piace in the Chestnut Hill dis- trict. It cost me about two hundred grands and when the deed was signed the fellow who made it out signed me as Jack Sharkey, Esq. Somebody saw that ‘Esq.’ and started calling me Squire. I don’t mind being called Squire, but some of the people in the ‘es@noorhood didn’t like it. They said they didn’t know of any fighter that was entitled to be called an Esquire or a Squire, but I'l show them. I'll make more dough in my racket than they have and I'll show them that I can be called a Squire. Wants to Win “That's one big reason why I'm in this fight to win. I want that dough. That's the reason I’m in this business. I wasn’t hot for taking this fight down here, though. Rickard prom- ised me plenty of money, but Joe Jacobs and Mike McTigue told me the tough time they had in Georgia and they told me I would be a sucker to come down here even if I got all the dough in the world. “Finally, when I hooked up with Carey and Dempsey, I wasn’t so sure and I told Mrs. Sharkey she had better stay at home with the family. If there were any raps to be taken down there, I wanted to take them by myself. But I found out just as soon as I got down here that I was in right with all the best people. I’ve got plenty of dough and if I went out with all my dough to buy a re- ception, I could not buy a better re- ception than I got here. And I'm not talking for publicity. No kidding, I'd like to live down here and I think I will when I knock over this guy.” ‘We then burst in with a question. “If you are so sure about winning this fight, name the round, won't you?” Won't Name Round “No, I won't name any round,” he replied. “I don’t fight that way. Some of the writers say that I won't hurt a fellow or try to knock him out. I told the New York commission that once, when they had me on the carpet, about that Eddie Huffman fight. They said I carried him and I told them that I was following the rules of boxing and that there wasn't any- thing in the New York rules that made a fellow knock another fellow out. Since then all the fellows seem. to think that I'm not vicious. “I’m not going after this guy Strib- |r: ling in one round or two or three rounds, I'm just going in there to fight. But, if I hurt him in the first round, he's going to get plenty, and if I get him weaving in the first round or the second or third, I'll take him right there. “The guys in this racket who name the round and the punch are either crazy or they have, a pushover in front of them and, as little as I think of this Stribling, he’s not a Likes Hot Weather “You know, Stribling only boxed three times in the first two weeks that he worked down here and I boxed every afternoon. It was hot, I know, but he’s from the south and he ought to’ be able to stand this heat. It hasn’t been so tough for me. I_made my schedule so that the sun wouldn't be on me strong.
