Phone 3 ARE GETTING FEWER, FARRELL DECLARES ports Editor) NEW YORK, Feb. 1.—(United Press).—“Jack Dempsey,” says Billy Nolan, commenting in a western paper, “is a great fighter, but he can't stop "em with one punch, like Bob Fitzsimmons could. When Fitz hit "em, they stayed down. Nolan, who managed Bat Nelson and Willie Ritchie and who made poor old Joe Gans weigh in with his shoes and gloves on, saw the Demip- sey-Firpo fight, and gave it as his opinion afterward, that Firpo would have been a cinch for Fitz. “Firpo got up elght or nine times after being punched by~ Dempsey, but he couldn't have taken more than one from Fitz. Dempsey can hit, but he lacks the knack of hit- ting so that the punch is deadly.” There are no one-punch fighters among the champions today and there weren't very many among the oldtimers, If Fitzsimmons had the knack of keeping his man down with one punch, he learned after he fought Jack Dempsey, the Nonpareil. Dempsey has won several fights with one punch before he won the championship, and if he has failed to do it since he won the title there is a reason for it. Dempsey couldn't get a fight if he stopped all his opponents with one creck. He could have stopped Carpentier with one shove. He didn’t knock out Tom Gibbons, but there hasn't been a fighter in the heavyweight class who could have stopped Tom with one punch. Against two of the biggest men ever in the ring—Willard and Firpo —Dempsey won in such short time as to rank himself with the best punchers of the class, Arguments on the subject will not prove anything, but it is very doubr- ful that Fitzsimmons or any other former champion of the class could have won any quicker from those two giants than Dempsey did. 7 +e rank Chance, who has the rep for making the boys do as he says, has ordered that the White Sox players next season shall not smoke cigarets, shall not drink “likker” and shall not have their wives tag- ging along on the road trips. That makes the P. L. eligible for the vice- presidency on one cf the “Donters” Uckets next fall. If Commissioner Landis sustains the argument “of Urban Shocker that a player, rather than the play- er’s club, has the say in matters Pertaining to his wife, the non-wife orders on several clubs will -cease to function. Cigarets will only taste sweeter to the boys when they are forbidden. eee Running hot and cold water in the dressing rooms is to be one of the novel accommodations the French Olympic committee is going to provide for the boxers who com- pete in the Paris games next sum- mer.

The committee takes a reasonable stand that at the end of three such rounds either one of the boxers Is the winner or it is a draw.

Leonard does not like to fight as a lightweight, and Walker is afraid’ of the welter- welghts. Both of them hate decis- ions, and it 1s probable that they will fight in New Jersey. Leonard figures that the match will draw $700,000. He should say that he hopes it will draw that much, as he will work for a percent- age. If the top price for seats is kept within reason—and it is Mmited in Jersey—the match will not draw anything near that sum. No fans are violently agitated about Leonard when he steps out of his class.

By JOHN B. FOSTER (Copyright, 1924, The Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Feb. 1.>Mo” Solomon now a Giant was the cham- pion’home run buster of the United States in 1923, a fact which he has just found out, and which has added to the previous great contentment which filled his mind when he found that he has been absorbed ‘by the Giants for 1924. ‘True, he may not stay with the Giants when the weeding out begins—but he hes been with them. Solomon hit 49 home runs last season, thereby leading the world, Babe Ruth, Cy Williams ind Rogers Hornsby. ‘True he hit them for the Hutchinson, Kansas, club ‘of the uthwéstern league, but he hit them just the same. Its a better record than the’ famous Ruth ever made as a busher. ~The second highest -home run record in the United States for 1923 is held, by Simpson of the Spring- field, Mass., club who busted 44 of them, Right on his heels is Paul |. Strand of Salt Lake City with 43, He had more games in which to get them than the others, but he got them and his is the season's record for the Pacific coast. Trailing Strand and Simpson are Ruth and Williams of the two major leagues with a paltry 41 home runs apiece. These five make up the 40 or better ranks of circuit clouters. Two men made 37, they were Rohrehr of Seattle and McDowell of Wichita. Sheehan of Salt Lake City and Blaksley of Wichita gath- ered 36 apiece. Kraft of Fort Worth, Texas, had 32 as did Davis of Tulsa and East of Minneapolis had 31. Among the other high home run hitters were Brief of Kansas City, 29; Ostergard of Galveston, 27; Paschal ol Charlotte, C., 26; Bishop of Baltimore, 22; Webb of Buffalo, 22; Clark of Birmingham and Atlanta, INDERSON-BROOKES TO REPRESENT AUSTRALIA IN ONS. CUP. EAMES ‘By LAWRENCE PERRY. «+ (Copyright, 1924, The Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Feb. 1.—It looks very much as though James C. An- derson and Norman Brookes will be the Australian doubles team in the Davis cup matches this year. , These two defeated Gerald Patter- son and Pat O'Hara Wood in Straight sets in the Australian doubles championship at Melbouine this week, Andérson, in winning the singles title, demonstrated that his lack of practice this winter—he was unable to play with the Sydney team in the interstate matches— had not affected him too greatly. As to doubles it would appear that the Australians have been doing a great deal of experimenting. In the Victoria championships Norman Brookes was paired with R. W. Heath and proceeded to the semi- finals, where O'Hara Wood and R. V. Thomas disposed of them. But in the finals Patterson and Hawkes were the victors. It had been supposed that Patter- son and Hawkes would remain to- gether with the idea-of Davis cup play, but in the Australian cham- pionships we find Patterson and ‘Wood paired against Anderson and Brookes. Reports from the under side of the world this winter have proved Wood's form as fully up to his best if not beyond it and probably this led to his partnership with Patter son. Brookes has been ma great progress in his con campaign and his play thus far has been characterized by all his pristine prowess in doubles. -PUNCH FIGHTERS | MORAN RELEASED BY CENTRE TO COACH BUCKNELL ELEVEN By WALTER CAMP.
