BY LAWRENCE PERRY. P N the graduate’manager of a small college of a state famous for the proficiency of its intercollegiate teams in various branches of sport at an athletic conferencg held not so jar from New York the other day. This manager took his text frem the action of the western conference in ruling that no athlete who transfers from a non-conference to a conference university shall be eligible to compete in big ten athletics. “Gentlemen,” he said, “let us face facts frankly. You know what we are all doing to strengthen our teams. You know what is being done to induce athletes to come to us. You are aware how the amateur spirit in base ball is being violated, and in not a few cases you know who are violating them. I don’t have to tell you what is being done in foot ball “I am here to make a proposition. | inating trend.

On this reservation reside 3,000 Blackfeet, the remaindef of a tribe that once roamed the Montana, Wyoming and Utah prairies.

Through the aid of an interpreter, Louls Monroe. he was presented with a ringside ticket for the Dempsey- Gibbons championship fight here July 4, by Eddie Kane, manager of Gib- bons. " Mountain Chief grunted his thanks.” And when the meaning of the ticket was relayed to him by the Interpreter, Mountain Chief, who had decked himsel out in all his war- Yme finery for the visitors, went into a war dance. Ho whipped out a mur- derous looking knife, which has touched many a scalp, and sounded his battle cry.

BY SPARROW McGANN. I EW YORK, June 11.—With Jess Willard terminating a period of pleasant loafing in the far west and now on his way to the scene of his next bout, and with Luis Firpo drifting about Cuba and Mexico, fight fans hereabouts are wondering about each man. It is not exactly Willard’s play, it is felt, to loaf as earnestly as he appears to have been doing since his -battle with Floyd Johnson. As for the Argentino, thg dope is the worst thing he ever did was cut loose from Jimmy DeForest just when Jimmy was teaching him how to fight. Luis learned a lot from DeForcst in the time that he worked under the veteran in preparing for the McAuliffe battle, but he did not Iearn all he should know by a good deal.

In the meantime, & phase of the coming Dempsey-Gibbons battle at Shelby is the willingness of western bettors to take chances upon the St. Paul scrapper at reasonable odds. They are impressed by Gibbons® foot- work and cleverness plus his ability to sock a fearful wallop with his right. It is figured that Dempsey will flop as quickly as the next man if he gets it on the button.

As a matter of fact Jack's eyes were glassy after that wallop and his legs sagged, Jjust as Gibbons sald_they | daid. It is the plain truth. For a fleeting second or two the writer, who sat immediately below Dempsey at the ringside in Jersey City, fully expected to see him sink to the floor after another hard blow. He had a bad look. And he would have gone down, t00, had Carpentier not thrown in his fotlowing punches wildly in- stead of measuring his man. Gib- bons can hit as hard as Carpentler, probably harder, and if he should hap- pen to jar Dempsey with a wallop, one may be sure he will have a hefty follow-up to shoot in. & Cut Over Eye Worries Jack. The cut over Dempsey's eye which was opened in a collision with a spar- ring partner the other day, has wor- ried Jack and_ his handlers. If it were cut in a fight he would have a bad time because of the flow of blood shutting off his vislon. -Again, Jack has not fought since July 1921, and two years are a long time for a champion to be idle. = No_ one can tell just how the period of ldleness will affect him in the coming battle.
