(Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Sept. 13.—If Jack Dempsey has been cautious about meeting Harry Wills in the ring ne need be so no longer. It was demonstrated in the big ena on Boy'e's ‘Thirty Acres, when Wills met Firpo in a 12-round baut on Thursday right at Harry has lost his farewell punch—if ho-ever had one against a powerful opponent— and that his eine ability as a fighter would not be suffictently high to stand the champion off. Against a man such as Firpo, who not only telegraphed his wallops but sends a le! of warning about them, Harry will always be perfect ly at ease. But Dempsey doesn't tel His punches come from a ort distance and behind them lurks ‘oblivion. Willst punches have not the dead- ly sfap of Dempsey's and the snap is what spells knockouts, As for the Thursday night battle, it was clearly graphically shown that the ra is greater than the wer club. star of sclence rose etear above the cause of brute forge.

Yes, Wills was the clever matador, but he fought the Bull, se to speak. with a blunted swerd, No thrust was a deadly thrust and the fight ended with Wills the winner by eight miles on points. If ever he was to lay Firpo supine, it was in the second round, when he clouted the South American on the jaw with all he had. It sent Firpoe to the canyass. Brit it did not keep him there.

I BIG THREE TOBE SPLIT? }Dartmouth Edging i To Take iva By LAWRENCE PERRY, (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Sept. 13.—One of the interesting phases of the com- ing foptball season, as well as ath: letic and seholastic eyents, will be the gathering together of Harvard and Dartmouth. Dartmouth, es- sentially New England in its ten- dencies as well as geographjeal loca- tlon, has long loked forward.to a better understanding with the Cam- bridge university with respect to scholastic procedure and in ath- leties, Affairs have heen working to- ward & consummation of this end. Dartmauth's football relations with the Crimson, which were resumed two years ago, are by no means Ukely to be fleeting. It is not en- tirely out of the reckoning that the college at Hanover feels itself en- titled to the position of rivalry with Harvard that Princeton now holds. Geographical relationship is clear- ly indieated and what Dartmouth would have to do to take the place at one of Harvard's elbows now oc: eupied by Princeton would be to overcome @ traditional rivalry as be- tween the New Jersey and Magsa- chusetts institutions, which seems valued, so far as Harvard alumni is concerned, less in Boston than ip other parts of the country, where graduates of Yale, Harvard anf@ Princeton are in closer communion, The dropping of the. Harvard- Princton freshman football game is regarded gs significant by some, as is the placing of Dartmouth upon the Yale varsity schedule, a fact which is taken in connection with the co-operation of Yale, Dartmouth and Harvard in certain important scholastic matters which, as a mat- ter of fact, Princeton declined to participate.
