The former champion’s exhibition tour ended here Thursday night when he outpointed, but failed to knock down, Babe Hunt, Ponca City, Okla., heavyweight whose long arms and vicious left hook made him dan- gerous throughout. It was not a decisive victory. The Associated Press score card showed |the first and third rounds even and 'gave Dempsey the second and fourth {by a shade. There was no official decision. Dempsey had difficulty getting in- side Hunt's defense in the first. In the second, he took two stiff jabs to the face, then rushed Hunt to the ropes with a left and a right, and, \utilizing the same combination, had the Oklahoma boy in distress again. | They were slugging so furiously at the end that neither heard the bell. |In the fourth, Dempsey shrugged off |some stiff punches and was chasing {Hunt around the ring with vicious chops to the face when the bout ended.

No free throws during playing time. Those were some of the oddities in the two city league basketball games Thursday night in which Proposed rule changes to speed up the game were given a try-out. One game was played under the penalty box system borrowed from hockey. Technical fouls drew half-minute penalties and person- al fouls, committed in the open court, a full minute. Personal fouls committed on players in the act of shooting were penalized by two minutes on the bench. Twice a team was left with only one man on the floor.

SPEED AND DARING BASE RUNNING ARE FEATURED IN LOOP New York Yankees Seen as Most Improved Team in Big Time Circuit INDIANS’ BATTERS “STRONG White Sox Have Great Pitching Staff and Rejuvenated ~ Infield Chicago, April 1—(#)—The ghost of Pepper Martin and the St. Louis Cardinals promises to haunt Connie Mack's Athletics during the 1932 Pennant chase in the American League. President William Harridge of the American League, back from his tour of the southern training camps, re- Ported almost every team in the cir- cuit has adopted the Cardinal method of manufacturing runs which proved 50 valuable in the baseball classic last fall. That system consists of speed and daring base running. There is one hitch, however, President Har- Tidge says, and that is: The Athletics | are doing the same thing. The New York Yankees, under the leadership of “Marse Joe” McCarthy; Washington, Cleveland ‘and Chicago appear to be the most improved clubs in the league, in the opinion of Har- ridge. No other club in the league, he says, has shown so much improve- ment as the Yankees. He believes they should be equal contenders with the Athletics in the scramble for the championship. “There are many reasons for this,” Harridge said. “The principal one, however, is that the pitching staff is greatly improved. The Athletics, in my opinion, will not make a runaway race of the championship, as they did @ year ago. “There seems to be no way to niuf- fle those Cleveland bats. There is Great power in that club and Billy Evans assures me the pitching de- partment has been strengthened, while the holes in the infield have ,{been plugged through the improve- ment of Ed Montague at shortstop.” The White Sox, Harridge says, have one of the best pitching staffs in the country, a greatly improved infield, and he will be greatly surprised if they do not improve on their position of last year. rcollegiate Bouts With University MERICAN LEAGUE CLUBS ARE ADOPTING CARDINAL TACTICS ——— Toronto Favored in Race With Rangers MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL WILL FIGHT SLUMP IN GATE RECEIPTS | To Play Drawing Cards Skill- fully in Attempt to Keep Out of ‘Red Ink’ New York, April 1—(?)—Faced with 10 per cent taxation on their tickets and the risks of uncertain gate receipts, major league baseball clubs will need to play their drawing cards skillfully this year to keep from dipping any further into the red ink. Only seven of the 16 American and National League organizations show- ed showed a profit at the close of 1931. The lopsided character of the two pennant races was largely res- ponsible for the slump in gate re- ceipts but the national game, like every other sport, has felt the pinch of the times. Blames Umpires Players salaries have been reduced and the player limit cut, to bring about a saving estimated at about $750,000 but it will take additional measures to prevent further financial embarrassment. John McGraw, blaming the um- Pires for too much pacifism, believes the fans will turn out to see the ball Players exhibit the scrappy spirit characteristic of McGraw’s own play- ing days. Many old-timers agree with the Giants’ leader but it is more like- ly the clubs will rely on closer pen- nant races and exploitations of in- |dividual stars to stimulate keener in- terest. For example, one of the club own- ers told me in Florida: “So long as the fans like it and will pay to see it, we will not object to clowning or @ real show of aggressiveness by the players, providing of course they don’t let it interfere with giving their best efforts on the field. I believe the fans like colorful action in any sport, in other words a good show as well as a good game. We will try to give it to them.” Besides their drawing power as world champions, the Cardinals are well fixed for providing a “good show” with players such as Pepper Martin and Dizzy Dean. Martin was the big attraction of the grapefruit circuit this spring. and already has shown flashes of the speed and hit- ting that made him the hero of the 11931 world series. Dean, if he gets away to a good start, will help the clubs cash in on his ballyhoo, Yanks Have Star The Yankees, besides the perennial }ace of all drawing cards “Babe Ruth” —have a widely heralded young star in Frank Crosetti to attract the folks in the Bronx. Across the bridge, Brooklyn figures Hack Wilson's Los Angeles—There are plenty of candidates for the job, but Guy Bush cannot be considered the least of those with a chance of pitching the opening game of the National League campaign for the Chicago Cubs. Warning Issued Against Racket ‘Quick Money’ Boys Have Inter- cepted Funds Meant For Olympics Chicago, April 1—(#)—If you are Planning to help your Uncle Sam's Olympic teams in a financial way, first look out for racheteers. Avery Brundage, president of the jAmateur Athletic Union of America, and president of the American Olym- pic committee, has rounded up infor- mation showing the quick money boys already are at work, and have inter-| cepted many thousands of dollars meant for the Olympic fund. He is sending out warnings to authorized members of the huge Olympic ma- chine, to head off the rackets before it becomes too late to steer the money into its proper channel. {bearing some There is nothing new in the racket employed. The enterprising ones are selling automobile tire covers, stick- ers for envelopes, cigarette lighters and a variety of other knicknacks, lympic mention. Stamps printed for 10 cents a hun- dred, have been sold for a dollar, and the profit on other items has been as large. The Olympic committee learned of the racket when checks made out to the “Olympic committee,” reached Brundage's office. The salesman had endorsed the - check, pocketed the money and moved out of the neigh- borhood. Brundage still has the checks. “We need not less than $300,000 to equip and care for our athletes,” Brundage said, “and probably twice that amount had been gathered up by the racketeers. Money is coming] in slowly, and contributors must be certain that their donations are reaching the committee.” - Bettors Will Not \, Bow to Sentiment New York, April 1.—(#)—Sen- timent may be with Jack (Kid) Berg in his 10-round bout with Sammy Fuller of Boston in Madi- son Square Garden tonight but hard cash favors the New Eng- land youngster. Odds as high as 2 to 1 have been quoted that Fuller will out- point the British veteran and perhaps earn a shot at Tony Canzoneri’s lightweight cham- pionship. The betting. ring, which seldom allows sentiment to mix with ‘business, evidently believes Berg is decidedly on the downgrade and that he no longer possesses the speed he will Leuven offset, ‘Rule Hrat MY Y Motto’ Maple Leafs Vie With New York | Puckmen For Hockey League Honors comeback attempt will draw enough at the gate to offset at least his pur- chase ,000. ‘The Boston Braves will allow Art Shires to do all the broadcasting he desires :so long as he plays a satis- factory first base.

Here's Henry Brocksmith, Montreal, April 1—(?)—The Tor onto Maple Leafs, who have been can- didates for hockey’s highest honors for several seasons but hii A ~~ the grade, appeared well on thelr to the final series against the New York Rangers for the ancient Stan- ley cup Friday. “Mathematically, the Leafs and the Montreal Maroons were even in their @S| “semi-final” battle for the right to meet the new national hockey league champions. They tied at one goal each Thursday night in the first | | clash of their two-game total goal ser~ jes. But the advantage today appear ed to be all Toronto's. The second game will be played Saturday night on the Leafs’ home ice, where they play their most ef- fective hockey. This fact alone puts the burden on the Maroons, who also are known as a homerink team. After completing the “semi-final” series, the winning team will be faced with a lot of travel before the Stan- ley cup series is decided. The first game of the cup playoff is scheduled for New York next Tuesday and the Rangers, after a futile ‘attempt to per- suade the Canadian teams to play two games in quick succession soon after the current series, chose the Boston Garden as their home ice for the second clash, April 7. The coming of the circus at Madison Square Gar- | den precluded playing there. Headline Setto Ends With Draw | Kid Fettig and La Reine Udell of Aberdeen Fight on Even Terms Grand Forks, N.
