By FAIR PLAY. yright, 1925, Casper Tribune NEW YORK, Dec, 29.—About this time last year, the writer predicted that the outstanding fight figure of the year would be Paul Berlenbach, This prediction has been adequately verified. Paul won the light heavyweight title last May and since then has shared honors with Harry Greb ans the most active of fighters. | For the coming year, the predic | tion is made that Jack Dempsey will be seen in defense of his title and that he will be successful in defend- Ing it. The present champion is not a drinker or smoker, so his present absence from the ring will prove no sreat barrter to his successful re- turn. Paul Berlenbach is unlikely to be pried loose from his light heavy title and Harry Greb from bis middle weight crown. Mickey Walker should retain his welterweight title through- out 1926 but it would not be surpris- ing if new champions were crowned in the light and bantamweight and the featherweight divisions. The boy who will beat Fidel La- Barba is not in sight. FLASHES | OF LIFE (By The Associated Press) TAMPA, Fla.—Red Grange fight? Not for $1,000.

BROWN. Three kings usually make @ hard hand to beat, but I believe that the successes Of Miss Helen Wills, the queen of American tennis, in 1925, far exceed those of the three kings, Bil Tilden, Bili Johnston and Vin- cent Richards. Miss Wills started off the major tenenament season with her invasion of England in quest of the Wimble- don title, emblematic of the world's tennis championship. Unused to for- eign playing conditions she fell be- fore the brilliant playing of Kath- leeh McKane, England's highest ranking playe: Returning to this country Miss Wills relished the prospect of meet- ing Miss McKane and her British sisters again in the Wightman tro- phy matches, which were staged in August. While América failed to turn back the British invaders Miss | Wills’ play was the spectacular event of the matches. Meeting Miss Me Kane again she defeated the Britix maid 6-1,1-6, 9-7, However, even the ers of Miss Wills foured fonal title held for two y Miss Elizabeth Ryan, American play: er retutning to this coun after thirteen years in Huropean play, ‘de- feated the © nia maid in the Seabright tc Both Mi: et admly for ber nat when Molsune and Miss Ryan were entered in the national tour- ney, as also was Miss Joan Fry, 18- year-old miss, given second ranking in British tennis, Miss McKane Defeats Miss Ryan Unfortunately Miss Wills did not get to meet both Miss McKane and Miss Ryan. The latter rivals met, however, in the earlier rounds, and Miss McKane showed her superior- ity over the veteran star. Miss Wills, in an earliér round, dfeated Mra. May Sutton Bundy. But Miss Fry's victory over Mrs, Bundy was equally impressive. Miss Wills then met Miss Fry and in de- cisive manner turned back the younger challenger. Meanwhile Mins McKane had do- feated Mrs. Marion Zinderstein Jes- sup, one of America’s formidable players.
