FARRELL (United Press Sports Editor) NEW YORK, March 31.—(United Press).—Harry Wills will be the one to benefit most if Luis Ange! Firpo should carry out his threat to retire from: the ring. The right of Wills to challenge for the heavyweight championship was firmly established before the edvent of the Argentine senor, but it was overlooked as long as Firpo held the dominating position among the chal- lengers. With Firpo out of the running, there can be no question but what Dempeey will have to fight Wills or retire. He can’t evade the issue without having the truth told. Dempsey either would have to come out and declare that the politi- clans would not let him fight Wills —and he would have to name the politicians—or he would be forced to admit that he ts afraid of Wills. There never has been a question in the minds of Dempsey’s friends that the champion feared Wills. ‘There is every reason to believe that he would rather fight Wills than any of the contenders, However, there have come up re- cently good reasons to believe that Jack Kearns, the champion’s mana- ger, is afraid of Wills, Perhaps his realization that Wills is the most dangerous challenger causes him to prefer risks less hazardous for his million dollar investment. Kearns steadfastly maintained that he didn’t want to fight Wills be- cause it would be a bad show and that it wouldn't help the business. He says he managed Wills once and ..

The regard that Dempsey shows for Gibbons by refusing to take the match does not support the charges of those great experts who said be fore the Shelby fight that Gibbons wouldn't go one round and who sought an alibi after the fight by saying that Dempsey double-crossed their judgment by allowing Gibbons to stay fifteen rounds. eee Dempsey, of course, is not afraid of Gibbons, but Dempsey probably knows that he would look none too good in winning again from a light heavyweight, and he has too much pride in the man-killing rep that he got against Firpo to run the chance of being made look Uke an ordinary fighter against Gibbons. The refusal of Dempsey to accept the Gibbons fight shows that he is either trying to cover up his real physical condition or that he is not willing to take the chance of having Gibbons make him miss again for twelve rounds or fifteen rounds. Dempsey had an easy “out” in Shelby, because, when he failed to knock .out the man he outweighed by 20 pounds, his expert friends said he carried his opponent so Firpo could be coaxed into a fight with him. It is quite possthle that Dempsey may fee] that he has no excuse for carrying Gibbons if they were to meet this summer, and that he would have no manufactured ‘out’ Andy Chaney vs. Joe Dundee, 12 rounds, at Baltimore. run already across home plate. svould be wasted. effort. he knows what kind of a rotten fighter he is, and he says that Demp- sey would beat him with one hand. Such talk, of course, is foolish. Dempsey probably would beat Wills if they met, but he wouldn't have a cinch doing it. True, he might take Wills in one punch, but one punch knockouts are lucky, and Dempsey would have to be lucky to win that quickly. In the event that the men on the nside are telling the truth when hey maintain that Dempsey wil. not © permitted to fight Wills this year, the champion would have to fight Tommy Gibbons if he wants to ficht at all. Perhaps he doesn’t want to fight this year. His actions seem to In- dicate that, and from the most re- lable source it was learned recently that Kearns is none too eager to get \ fight for Dempsey. He will con- vider nothing until 1, and then he had Firpo in mind for a push-over, *irpo would be nothing but a set-up ‘or Dempsey if they met again. Dempsey never would miss Firpo vain the way he did on the first vunch in their other fight. It was Jempsey’s miss with his left hand nd Firpo’s rather lucky counter vith a stiff right that knocked Oempsey groggy and made possible that sensational first round. Tom Gibbons. certainly has been pushed around more than any taree of the prominent boxers. Dempsey took a deliberate run-out of the match that Rickard had arranged for an early June date with Gibbons. When the story was printed re- cently that Dempsey was not in shape, that his manager had said it would not be safe for him to fight before fall, Kearns said it was “sheer bunk.” Kearns told Rickard that he cou'’d not accept the Gibbons bout because when the story was printed Kearns said that Dempsey was in perfect sy 3 2 for 25 2 for 25¢ Peglecto Geasde3 forse z \ Dempsey was not in shape, and condition and could fight ‘“tomor- Tow.” If Dempsey is in shape, if the operation didn’t leave him in the con- dition that an operation usually leaves any normal human being, then Dempsey pulled a deliberate run-out of the Gibbons fight.
