A massive concrete horeshoe stadium with a peating capacity of 13,000, permitting of enlargement to seats for 21,000, is taking form on the grounds of the ‘West Side Tennis club, where some of the greatest of tennis battles have gecurrea, a ass “On the turt courte within the rtm ef this horeshoe many of the tennis classics of the world will be held. As @ result of its undertaking im erect- ing the stadium, the West Side Stadium has been granted the Davia Cup Challenge round this year, the Men's National Singles Champion- ships from 1924 to 1928 and the Davis Cup Challenge Rounds or the Men's Doubles Championships from 1928 to 193: ettp this fall will be the first impor tant event In the stadium. To the tennis idealist the stadium {s an evolution, moving from the old ‘weoden stands and clubhouse tn an- ether part of the grounds where thou- sands stw Maurice E, McLoughlin and Norman Brookes in their memor able Davis Cup match of 1914; saw the magnificent struggle between FR. Norris. Williams and William M. Johnston on 1916; and the dramatic five-set match between William T. Tilden and Johnston in 1920. In England, the seat of tennis fs in the stadium at Wimbledon, where all the annual title events are played. Last year Wimbledon’s seating capa- elty of 14,000 was found too small. Enlargement of the Wimbledon ste- ium {s contemplated. Experts pre- dict that the new West Side Stadium, within five years, will be only ha't large enough to accommodate appli- ecants for seats to championship events. For the past few years, “world's grass court championshtp: have been decided at Wimbledon, under grants of the International Lawn Tennis Federation, but 1923 will mark the end of these titular events, as a result of their abandonment, brought about by the opposition in the United States to award in per- Petulty of any world’s championship event to one nation.

Totha Bae, | HARVEY PERKINS GETS CHANCE AT GOOD HEAVY ON ALL-STAR CARD TO BE STAGED BY RODEO Harvey Perkins, Casper’s own heavyweight star, is to be ven an opportunity to display his wares on the Rodeo card une 8 against some good heavy. Harvey has demonstrated that he is one of the best of the big fellows pushing Levin- «ons and will be given every opportunity in the world to get up the ladder of pugilistic fame. The Casper boy gave the wise guys quite an eyeful up at the Elks show the other evening when he lambasted Mr. Hughie Walker, top notch boxer from pillar to post in their little quar- rel. What Harvey did to Walker was little short of murder and came with- in an ace of toppling the Missouri star in the latter chapters of the battle. Harvey's opponent has not been named yet but the matchmaker of the Rodeo show is in touch with sev- eral heavies and will pick one who will be a match for the hard hitting ,| Petinery boy, The complete card will be 46 rounds of boxing with Perking meeting some good boy in the 10 round opener, Bull Moser boxing Teddy Gartin, Ne braska's new welter sensation 12 rounds, Otto Wallace meeting Arlos Fanning 12 rounds and Midget Smith clashing with Earl Puryear in the fi- nal 12 round mil}, Mike Gibbons, 8t. Paul's wonder boxer will referee all bouts. Mike is the man who brought out and trained Tommy Gibbons chal- lenger for Dempsey’s crown July 4th and will be off to take care of the brother immediately following the Rodeo card. .

But just belng clever won't get you any plage in the heavyweight class. You've got to put them on the floor to make people like you, “I have been accused of fighting setups. Anybody you can lck is a setup. Some of the so-called trial horses wouldn’t get in the ring with me. “Dempsey has always been my ideal of a fighting man, The champion can sock. He can use his head in the ring. He can make his feet dance. And personally Dempsey {a one of the most likeable fellows I ever met. I'm Just 4 contender now. After July 4th I may be something else. “It isn't the money I'll get if I win —or the loser’s end if I should fail-~ that I'm fighting for, It's the title. My part of the contract calls for no money until Dempsey gets his $300,000 bit. This theatrical tour will tune me up for the grind atead. It may get me a little cash to pay training coats. ll work with big fellows and little ones in my camp. Three weeks’ hard work {s all I'll take. There is always a chance of getting stale. I know my Umits. “Helen, my wife, and the three be- bies will be with me. She thinks she ought to be near me when we have as much at stake. She says I spend all my time writ:ag to her and the children when we are separated. I'll admit I am always thinking of her and the youngsters, “I don't know how I'll fight Demp- sey yet. I can box him. I can fight him, I can mix them up. But I'm going in there to beat him decisively, You have to do that t> win from a champ!or I’m going into the ring with one feeling——Dempsey isn't a superman. If I thought he was I wouldn't have made the match. Some of the betting, I understand, is on the ground Dempsey will knock me out. These people are going to be surprised. I have never been knocked out in my life, It won't happen in the Shelby ring, I have made a study of nerve centers. Surgeons at Minnesota Uni- versity showed me through the clinic. Knocking 4 man out {a like pressing buttons, When you press the right button or combination the lghts go but. “Dempsey’s famed rabbit punch doesn't worry me a bit, It tsn’t a fair blow but he will never get so far behind me to lay one in there. I feel I could have whipped Carpentier just as easily as Dempsey did it. That was the only time I ever saw him fight."” ‘The champ'on has seen Gibbons in action one, also, That was the Greb Vieht at the Garden. But he didn't see the rea! Tommy Gibbons that night.
