ALKER LOST WITHOUT CHIEF lack Bulger’s Death Is Great Blow to Mickey, Said. By FAIR PLAY. opyright, 1924, The Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, March 28.—Mickey Walker’ will be a lost lad indeed thout Jack Bulger, his manager, who died in Newark on Tuesday. Bulger picked on Walker when the Kereighead boy was a rollicking leader of a gang of boys. He told Mickey he would make a champion out-of him within a year. As a fact, eighteen months saw Walker @ world’s title holder. Mickey 1s heart broken about the untimely death of his manager, who was a friend as Well. Some of the finest friendships that exist in the ‘world are to’be found existing be- tween a fighter and his manager, as Paddy Mullins and Harry Wills, ‘Tommy Gibbons and Eddie Kan Jack Dempsey and Kearns, Benny Leonard and Billy Gibson. And jone of these was closer than the [ Bulger-Walker combination, Fans would give a good deal to know how Hughey Gartland took Firpo's determination to retire from the ring. Hughey who has a line of talk that is all his own, must have found himself pretty much of @ square peg in a round hole in Buenos Air: There is sufficient evidence to indicate that Gartland had no influence over the wild bull. Floyd Fitzsimmons of Benton Harbor has a trump to play ‘with "his Gibbons-Carpentier fight. Floyd has not yet said what city will get July 4 plum. The one that to land it will haye to have rn ng instincts for Fitzsimmons will charge for this battle as he hould. No clos follower of the ng game has any idea that Car- pentier will have a chance with Gibbons. But there is always the Prospect that his right has retained lot of the power shown against jpsey and in any event the enchman is a drawing card.

NEW YORK, March 28.—(United Press.—When young Paul Berlen- bach was stopped by Jack Delaney it was generally accepted as the bursting of the season's best bubble. It was Suggested by some that it wasn’t even a good bubble. The fact that Delaney is one of the best middieweights in the game and that Berlenbach had only had ten professional fights seems to have been forgotten in the obits that were handed out when the former wrestler was defeated. ~ Why it was that the young fighter, with only ten fights on him, had to meet the second or third best middleweight in the country cer- tainly was overlooked when Berlen- bach was being razzed as the busted bubble. Berlenbach was forced into a fight that he was at least a year away from, because the New York boxing commission would not let him meet any more setups. Finding author- ity for it some place, the commis- sion took upon itself the right to name the fighters that Berlenbach could meet. It went further and .]@nnounced that Berlenbach could not fight any opponent unless that opponent welghed within two pounds of his own weight. Panned for picking setups, criti- clzed in the press and domineered by the boxing commission, Dan Hickey had nothing left to do but to sign with the fighter that he thought the least dangerous of the first class middlewelghts. Delaney had a good name. If Berlenbach beat him, it weuld silenss the wolves that were howl- ing at the door. Delaney was known to have a bad right hand, and he was never said to have been a great socker. It was said that he had a glass jaw and couldn't take it. He looked like the euaiest of the good fighters, It turned out’ that an awful mis- take had been made in appraising Delaney. He was, perhaps, the hardest test thht could have becn subjected to the youngster—a fast, skilled boxer with a punch, Harry Greb would hive been easier. Jock Malone or Johnny Wilson would have been no more dangerous. None of them combined what De- laney had that night. eee Berlenbach lost his fight because he did not know what to do when he was winning in the second round, and because he did know what to do for himself when he was hurt tn the third round, He showed his gameness by tak- _ BASEBALL QUESTION BOX If you have some question to ask about baseball— If you want a rule interpreted— If you want to ‘now anything about a play or a player— Write to John B.

His defeat was no bursting of a bubble. If he so’ wishes he can yet go a long way in the fight game. It is not impossible for him to turn out to be just what was expected when he started. He says he is not through with the fight game, that he is going to start over and start the right way. As has been pointed out before, Berlenbach would have done much better if he had been born in the middle. west and had started fight- ing away from the big leagues. Ono year in the bushes would have given him ‘the experience that he so sadly lacked. He would not have been forced tnto any matches far above his head. He could have been brought alone slowly and would not have been bothered with nosy boxing commissioners, a ¢riti- cal press or a pack of fans that FOR THE GAME’S SAKE By LAWRENCE PERRY (Copyrtght, 1924 Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, March 28,—Knute Rockne's ten year contract to coach tre Dame ends at a period which must have been an anxious » for loyal kdheren nd institution. umph of elements amc Yersity alumni who felt the right man in the right place, While the period of “certainty was Rockhe conferred with rep- Tesentatives of vartous Institutions who had approached him with offers Whose flattering nature was prob ly commensurate with his prestige and ability ing him as a at least one « on Princeton was consider: cessor to Roper and mference was had but in the end the Tiger football com- mit decided it would be best to stick to alumni! coaching.

SARL (United Press Staff Correspondent) LIVERPOOL, March 28.—(United Press)—The Grand National Steeple- chase, the world’s greatest horse shout always in New York for some kind of a scalp, Hickey can save Berlenbach yet by “farming” him out for a year. All the boy needs is experience, and there is only one way to get it in the fight business. He has a deadly punch, he ts game, he Is strong and he is willing. All he needs is train- ing and experience. He will have to get away from New York for that. see Advising Berlenbach to get away from New York does not mean that the fight fans in the “country” will stand for anything, but they are more fair than they are in New York. The baseball fan in New York is the fairest specimen in the country, but the New York fight fan {s positively the meanest and the most unfair: No other city in the world could produce the type of “eltizen" that hurled the razzberry at poor Eugene Criqul, the war-torn French featherweight, when he was defending his title against Johnny Dundee, Berlenbach might get a lot of good out of that beating. It cer- tainly did not ruin. him, Dempsey was beaten several times when he was starting, and it didn't hurt him. Berlenbach's defeat showed that he ‘was not invincible, and perhaps he will be allowed.to fight now the men that his smart old manager, Dan" Hickey, picks out for him. Dan knew the kind to pick be fore. He was razzed when he was saying that the second-raters knew too much for his pupil. He wanted him to get experience above every- thing else, and he was doing it very well when the boxing commission stepped in and said that he couldn't have the right to learn that ts granted to a beginner in every line of sport, Berlenbach says, in another year he'll beat Delaney, and if he stays in the business there are a whole bunch more that he will beat in an- other year, Sport Calendar } Racing Meeting of Cuba-American Jockey Club, at Havana, Meeting of Tiajuana Jockey Club at Tiajuana. ‘Track Ann-Baltimore athletic meet relay carnival, at Baltimore.
