NEW YORK, Aug. 1.—Harry Ver | ner and Simon Flaherty, boxing pro moters, today deposited with a bank a check fer $50,000 which they said would be given to Jack Dempsey if he ‘would meet Harry Wills for the heavyweight title before battling {Luis Angel Firpo. The promoters de clared they had en option on an arena in greater New York that would seat 90,000 persons. Paddy Mullins, Wills’ manager, who’ visited the boxing commissioners yes- terday to press Wills’ right, under ar- ticles signed at the commission four- teen months ago, for the first chance at the title, sara he understood trom the conversation that there was no objection to a Wilis-Dempsey match. Tex Rickard, promoter of the Demp- sey-Firipo match, has not yet drawn articles before the commission as re- quired, nor applied for a license to hold the beut, but it was pointed out | that he had until September 6, eight | days before the match, to go through with these formalities. |__ Dempsey has signed a contract with Rickard to meet Firpo and 1s cer- tain to go tnrough with it, so that Wills’ only hope is for the commis. sloners to vote disapproval of Firpo as a fit opponent for the champion. | It 1s understood, however, that no of- | ficial objection to a Firgo-Dempsey | bout will be raised. feeee a ES | The olf time pugitists, who not only | fought without bandages but fought | terrieia fights with bare knuckles under the old prize ring rules, sel- |dom injured their hands.

People don’t like to be fooled—especially the men who buy valve cups under the impression that they’re getting Darcova and find somebody substituted. Fifteen years ago Darcova Valve Cups began setting the pace by actual records of performance thatno other valvecup could approach. Comparative tests by many customers in the field show the Darcova of today is far superior to any ' other valve cup. If improvements are made they will be found in Darcova first. You want to pump oil and keep right on pumping it steadily without interruptions for recupping. Then insist on genuine Darcova Valve Cups. The Darcova label is your safeguard.
