PAUL, Minn., July 7—(United Press.)\—Tommy Gibbons did not face Jack Dempsey in vain—his “home folks” tonight planned to give him a Purse of $20,000. «. The gift will probably be raised by Popular subscription, according to the intentions of a reception committee which will also tender him a banquet next week. No president, king or lesser digni- tary was ever accorded a greater “welcome home” today than St. Paul gave Gibbons, After 10,000 persons met him at the station, he paled around with Governor J. A. O. Preus and 40,000 more paid personal tribute to him. It was during this demonstration that he told the United Press that Jim Daugherty, Shelby referee, “sald nothing” to Dempsey about fouling but cautioned him when he accident- ally hit outside the rules. Gibbons also declared Dempsey is not a “‘super-man”—that he can meet the “Colorado pile-driver” again and win. ee Western League 910 040 000—5 12 0 —--——-—010 510 00°—7 92 Prendergast, Darrough, May and Wilder; Hall, Yotgnt and Diamond. 2nd game 000 000 o11—2 80 ----000 001 000—1 91 Lee and Wilder; Vorhies and Hinkle. ist game: Des Moines .--_.000 100 100-2 60 Sioux City ._ 02 080 00*—5 11 1 Olson and Wheat; Rose and Snyder. ‘2nd game: Des Moines ._.020 2100 —8 90 Sioux City --000 0000 —0 61 @ innings by agreement). ‘Williams and Whaling; Duff, Grant band Snyder.

He is considered around through the middlewest as one of the best of the big fellows and would no doubt give Casper Harvey plenty of action should they meet in a local La Hickey has boxed all the good men in and around Kansas and several of the Kansas Legion posts speak very highly of his ring prowess.

SIDSOCKLIN TO MAKE HOME HERE, HE SAYS Towa Welter Who Fought Gartin Likes Casper and Will Stick Sid Socklin, the Iowa welterweight is going to make his home in Cazper. Casper fight fans will remember Socklin as the bird that put up a tough battle for four rounds with the great Teddy Gartin of Omaha at the Rodeo stadium here July 4. Socklin is known to the sporting fraternity as a hard nut to crack. He places every ounce of his fight strength into his SID SOCKLYN punches, and whoever goes up against him goes up against a hard hitter and a fast boxer. It was unfortunate in the Gartin- Socklin battle that an accidental foul stopped the fight and prevented fans from seeing the two men in a longer contest. Both were going good up to the finish. The very fact that the Towan has not shown his complete ability before Casperites is assurance that they will be glad to see him in action again at any time the match- makers feel they have an opponent worthy of his metal. “I Uke Casper,” Sid said yesterday. “I have enjoyed meeting the friends I have met here and I want to get better acquainted with them. Every- body seems to be so up and going an on the square that a fellow with any push at all can’t help wanting to work with them and have them as his associates.” gare CONVICTS “STRIKE” IN FLORIDA FOR HOLIDAYS TAMPA, Fla, July 7. — (United Press)—Superintendent L. ©, MelIn- tosh of the Hillsboro county convict camp resigned today because the pris- oners are threatening to strike for a half holiday on Saturdays.
