The Firemen gave Davis, former- ly of the Natrona County high school, good support, and he netted the majority of points for the hook and ladder boys. The laundrymen could not be checked, however, and Layman, Bumann and Lester found the basket regularly. The DeMolays were not going so well in the first half of their game with the Ohlo team but in the sec- RICKARD WANTS TUNNEY FlGnT BEFORE WILLa Fight Started With New York Dictators Holds Interest. By FAIR PLAY. (Copyright 1926, Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Jan, 27.—The ins and outs of the Dempsey-Tunney sit- uation are perplexing. What impell- ed Tex Rickard to speak so boldly concerning his rights as contrasted to the attitude of the New York state athletic board. And why did the great promoter, after repeated statements through the years that fa Dempsey-Wills battle was the logi- cal world’s title contest, suddenly switch, saying that Wills was out and that he looked upon a Dempsey- ‘Tunney scrap as the best bet? Rickard is not without political backing. A showdown might dem- onstrate that he is sitting prettier in this respect than even the boxing board. Somewhere, somehow, the wires keem to be crossed. As for Dempsey being ineligible, did not Wills make himself ineligible by signing to meet the champion when the titleholder was barred in New York? Farley, the chairman of the New Work boxing commission, says that fhe board has no positive informa- Bion that will substantiate such a thing but it seem# that a perfunc- tory investigation would show that he did. One thing seems certain and that is that Tunney will fight in New York before the indoor season is at an end. Pete Reilly, who manages Jack Delaney is very anglous for a shot at Gene and strange as it may seem, the French-Canadian would give ‘Tunney a real battle. But since Gene does not like to advertise himself as a light heavy- weight, it is more likely that a man such as Jack Sharkey, who seems to be on the upgrade, will face the e@x-marine, COBB, SPEAKER AND COLLINS IN HALL OF FAME — (P) —New an league's hall CHICAGO, niches in the A of fame, whose roster now holds even names, have been filled by ‘Ty Cobb, Detroit Tiger manager; ‘Tris Speaker, Cleveland Indian men- tor, and Eddie Collins, Chicago White Sox pilot.

Timer—Mignolet, CHALLENGE OF ABE MITCHELL HOLDS THRILL (Copyright, 1926, Casper ‘Tribune) ST, AUGUSTINE, Fla., Jan. 27.— Abe Mitchell's challenge to meet any American golfer for a purse of 500 pounds raises the question as to who should be accorded the privilege of meeting him. The man for the task probably will be chosen by an elimination contest or by the vote of a com- mittee, Were the choice left to a general vote of the American golf public, it is probable that Walter Hagen would be, selected. In the first place, Ha- gen has defeated Mitchell in’ the only contest the pair ever played. That was a memorable struggle, some three years ago at the West- chester-Biltmore club, in which Ha- gen came from behind and pulled victory out after being four down, going into the last nine holes of a 36-hole match. But Gene Sarazen, Long Jim Barnes and several other American players, have their back- ers who contend they should have the privilege of meeting the Brit ish star. HELEN WILLS REJECTS TWO CANNES, France, Jan. 27.—@)— Rumors are golng the rounds that Miss Helen Wills has received offers of marriage from a member of the British aristocracy and from a pro- fessional tennis player. Both offers were rejected, Matrimony is not in the program of Miss Wills at present. She ts de- clared to have conveyed knowledge of this fact to her suitors. “I won't deny that I have had offers of marriage and I won't con- firm the rumor,” said the American champion to?-~. “But,"" she added, “If you are a betting man please lay odds that I shall return to Cal- ifornia single, if not singles cham- pion,” Miss Wills was not scheduled to play today. UNRULY GOLF CROWDS TO BE GURBED BY FEE LONDON, Jan, 27.—A)—With a view to eliminating unruly crowds such as bothered MacDonald Smith at the open golf championship at Prestwick last year, the Royal and Ancient club has decided to charge admission’ fee to the open champion- ship tournament at Lytham and St. Anne's next June, The fee will also be charged at the amateur championship meeting at Muirfield in May. Thig will be the first time in the history of British golf that admis- sions will be charged.

FOSTER, By JOH Wopyright 1926, Casper Tribune NEW YORK, Jan. 27.—The big- gest cleaning out of heroes in years is disclosed by the rankings of the National league just made public, Of the top notchers of 1925 only three survive, They are Hornsby, as leading batsman; Carey, as leading base stealer and Pinelli as leading sacrifice hitter. Hornsby replacés Fournier as lead- ing home run hitter of the league, Cuyler repleces Roush as champion three-bagger. Bottomley, a team mate of Hornsby, supplants the lat- ter as leading two-base hitter and also as the leader in total number of hits, Stock, much to the surprise of those who haye not followed the fig- ures closely, takes the lead at single hitting away from Wheat. In 1925 Cuyler took the lead as run- getter. The leading National league pitcher in 1924 was Yde of Pitts- burgh. But althought his team won the championship in 1925, Yde lost his honors to Bill Sherdell, of st. Louis. Vance who led in 1924 in earned runs, is supplanted by Lu- que, the greatest good-and-bad al- ternater in the game's history. Bur- rus supplanted Grimm as the lead- ing first baseman, based on ratings of players who participated in 100 games or more. Adams, of the Cubs, ran Maranville and all the others out of second base honors. Traynor, of Pittsburgh, completely floored Groh for third-base honors and Ban- croft, of Boston, took shortstop hon- ors away from Cooney of St. Louis, who will be with the Cubs in 1926 Mike Gonzales put DeBerry out of the catcher's hall of fame and Wal- ker, of Cincinnat!, took the outfield- ing lead away ‘from Harper of Phila delphia, es QUESTION BOX If you have some question to ask about baseball, football, box- ing or any other amateur or pro fessional sport— Write to John B, Foster, on baseball.
