JACK DEMPSEY TO FIGHT FIRPO, WILLS AND GIBBONS IN FUTURE Three Big Battles on Calendar for Heavyweight Champion as Soon as Manager Decides Time Is Ripe for Picking. BY HENRY L. FARRELL, "(United Press Sports Editor). NEW YORK, Dec. 1.—(United Press).—Three big bouts, in which his net cut ought to be more than a half million dollars, are in the making just as soon ag Jack Dempsey decides that the time is ripe for the picking. Dempsey had two big contests this year with Tommy Gibbons and Luis Angel Firpo, and he would have taken on Harry Wills for a third fight, if he would not have been forced to part with practically all of the last purse in income taxes. Wills, Firpo and Gibbons are stil! live prospects and they will be worked into the 1924 schedule that Jack Kearns 1s now arranging for the champion. The match with Wills naturally will be the most attractive because the colored challenger has a tradi- tional right to the “logical” place and he has ‘never been defeated by Dempsey, while Firpo and Gibbous have had once chance. The Wills match also presents the most difficulties in being arranged. The match would have been made long ago if promoters felt sure of their grounds. After the political skles had been cleared somewhat and after Gov- ernor Smith, in a campaign speech which he was making in the interest of Democratic legislature candidates, said that Wills could fight Dempsey, another obstacle arose when Wills anounced that he never would fight for Tex Rickard. Dempsey, it is generally believed. will not work for any other pro- moter, because he and his manager feel that Rickard is the only pro- moter big enough to make a finan- cial success of a big heavyweight championship fight. Reports that Wills had set aside his personal difference with Rickard have been heard recently, and it is understood that the colored heavy- weight is’ ready to listen to what Rickard has to offer for the fight. eee Dempsey, it is understood, is will- ing to consider an indoor bout with Tom Gibbons this winter. If this is true, Dempsey has not increas his price tag since his fight with Firpo. For a fight in New York, Demp- sey could hardly get more than $100,000 for an instde show, figuring that his opponent would have to get something more than the honor of fighting the champion. Dempsey has always maintained that he did not demand impossibie terms from the promoters for his services. He showed in Shelby that he was willing to be right, but the promoters refused to work with hin Jack Kearns claimed in the past that Dempsey had to get a huge purse because in the six or seven weeks that he spent in training for a big fight he was deprived of out- side revenue that under some cir- cumstances has run as high as $10,000 a week. The champion is not tled up with any outside contracts this winter and it is possible that he would be willing to take on Gibbons for a very reasonable purse. eee ‘Three weeks before his career had come to an end, “Memphis” Bill Mallory, Yale captain and football star, discovered he could kick. During three seasons as a ‘varsity player, Mallory had distinguished himself almost entirely by his de- fensive brilliance. He seldom car- ried the ball, but on offensive he was very valuable in taking out the obstacles in the way of the bail carrier. At the end of the last season, Mallory surprised the Yale under- graduates by Kicking a field goal. He had never tried it before, but he got away with it several times in later games. Shaggy Cullen, the Navy backfield star, made the team just because he could kick, Coaches who saw him booting the ball before he was even on the squad brought him along and taught him the game. : George Gipp, the late Notre Dame star, said-to have been one of the Sreatest of all players, also had the attention of the coaches called to him by his kicking before he was considered good enough for the scrubs. eee Ban Johnson, president of the American League, believes that George Sisler will be a success as 2 maypager and that he will have the Browns back in the American League race next season. Johnson agrees with a lot of smart baseball men who have expressed the opinion that Sisler will not be handicapped by the mild disposition that has always characterized his work on the field. In asking Sisler to put the Browns back in the pennant race, too much may be expected of bra and mart managemen’ The Browns need pitchers and they need infield strength. eee Since Dave Bancroft was traded to the Boston Braves by the Giants, practically every shortstop in the National League has been mentioned as being a “sure member” of the Giants next year. Some have gone so far as to say that Hornsby will be on second base, Hollocher at short, Frisch on ‘third, and Bottomley at first for the Giants. Babe Ruth ought to be brought along with that bunch, as he could be made a part of the greatest infield by working in the ROMERO STOPS FRENCH HEAVY. IN THE THIRD - 1.—Quintin Romero, “wolf of the Andes” was hailed as a second Firpo here tonight, following his easy victory over Marcel Nilies, leading French heavyweight. The Chilean boxer knocked Nilles out in the third round. The Frenchman was outclassed from the start. “I want a few more fights in Europe to gain experience and then I’m going to the United State: Romero told the United Press. “I want a chance at Firpo and then Dempsey, as ‘soon as I've had some North American training.” Romero welghs 200 pounds. He has a powerful right, like Firpo, ani can use his left, as he demonstrated tonight. Sports experts at the ringside agreed that Romero has the of a formidable fighter of the Firpo type. ————___ “TERRORS” OF COLORADO SPRINGS BEAT LA JUNTA IN STATE TITLE BATTLE COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo, Dec. 1.—Colérads — Spri; high school romped over La Junta in the semi-finals for the state champion- ship by a score of 68 to 0, main- taining the point-a-minute stride which has given them 531 points to thelr opponents’ six this year. On the kick-off, Simpson, La Junta full- back, aided by fine interference ran the whole length af the field to the Terrors’ one-yard line. Four at- tempts failed to put the ball over, and thereafter the Arkansas valley champions never threatened the lo- cals’ goal. Colorado Springs will meet Fort Collins at the latter city next Satur- day for the state championship. ——_——____ A creamy white flour made from dried oysters is used by the Japanese for thickening stews and is a'so rinkled on thin bread and butte: Felt Slippers Lounging Robes Chamois Shirts Silk Hosiery Pullman Slippers Bath Robes Undergarments Golf Hosiery Pajamas Flannel Shirts Razor and Straps Shoe Trees Dress Shirts Traveling Sets Traveling Bags Handkerchiefs The Store of Practical Gifts Knickers Knicker and Skirt Suits Hand Bags Wardrobe Trunks Suit Cases Oregon City Virgin Wool Blankets Silk or Wool Stockings Silk or Wool Mufflers Sheeplined Coats Steamer Robes Week End Bags Fur Lined Gloves HEAD-TO-FOOT CLOTHIERS CAMPBELL- JOHNSON CO.
