Two of my teachers, being Univer- sity of Illinois graduates, contend- ed Red Grange along with Jack| Dempsey and Babe Ruth were thc best known. I agreed with them »m the latter two, but said that’ Red Grange was virtually unheard 'of today. I would like to know which three athletes have received the most newspaper space in the last seven years.” Ruth, sones, Dempsey The answer is.a lot easier than it may seem, there being no ques- tion in this observer's mind that the three most publicized figures of sport for the boom period of 1923- 30 are Babe Ruth, Bobby Jones and Jack Dempsey. Nationally, I do not think there is any question of Ruth's leader- ship, whether it is figured in agate lines, mileage or bushel baskets. The greater international fame of Jones and Dempsey, in sports which carry a much more universal ap- peal than baseball, puts these two performers well up to the Babe's| level. To confirm our views on this matter, we polled a group who make it their business to scan, pre- pare and direct the flow of The As- sociated Press news reports. Thelr opinions put Ruth and Jopes in a tie, closely followed by Dempsey, | with Helen Wills Moody and Knute Rockne next. Ruth has an edge over most °fi his rivals by reason of being in| action daily for better than half| the year. ~He can play up to 15% games a season. His showmansh'p at all times begets an amazing esmount of newspaper space. No other ball player ranks even close | t0 the Babe in ths respect, and the list includes Cobb, Mack, Horns-| by and MecGraw. Jones and Dempsey have much| fower cpportunities to crash the; public prints. Nevertheless they| have caught and held the pu_blic‘ interest over a long siretch of time.| Dempsey, although he lost the viorld’s championship in 1826, o distanced his rival, Gene Tunney, — |March 3, 1921 (™ 1, | Drawings and specifications, not ex- | Hardly Sixth Red Grange, sensational as were his exploits for three college years of football, hardly would rank in the first six when it comes to ag- gregate mention in the public print over the seven year period under| Moreover,| consideration here. Grange's activities were restricted to a few weeks each fall. Helen Wills, Knute Rockne, Blg Bill Tilden and Gene Tunney pos- sibly all weuld rank above Grange in total wordage over the span of 1923 to 1930. Rockne, in his me- teoric lifetime, furnished the most magnetic personality in football history by a wide margin. ‘Tilden, roaming all over the world in pursuit of tennis honors, more publicity than any other figure in his specialty, including Queen Helen. Grange, in his sophomore year at Illinois in 1923, received hardly any more publicity than did Yale's Al- bie Booth in the 1929 football cam- paign. Army’s Red Cagle was very much in the ,gridiron spotlight for four years. These football figures. however, pass 'swiftly from the scene when their college days are over so far as the real headlines are concerned. ———— Old papers tor sale at the Em- pire office.
