REAT FALLS, Mont., June 25.—Running true to the schedule G mapped out for him, Jack Dempsey will rest today before resum- ing the last stretch of his training grind tomorrow in preparation for the defense of his world championship against Tommy Gibbons at Shelby, July 4. The champion finished his last strenuous work with the gloves yes- terday when he stepped ten furious rounds with five sparring partners. He is satisfied with his hitting power and so are the men working with that trouble of some sort e G Company and certain New Tex Rickard. of the mixup, has been revealed. REAT FALLS, Mont., June 25.—It has been known for some time xists between Kearns, Dempsey and York fight interests—not excluding The precise nature of the difficulty, or at least one phase It appears that the acquisitive Kearns feels that when the Firpo-Willard match was arranged his interests were not considered. . And, of course, any one who fai is falling far short of making a hit Is to consider dapper Jack’s interests with his managerial magnate. Here is what Kearns wanted and felt he was entited to receive—a fight for * Dempsey with Willard as opponent with the prince of the pampas in the fights instead of one. Kearn's business instincts were utterly outraged when a battle was arranged which would be certain to eliminate one of two great drawing cards. And when his commercial nerves are jarred he just naturally gets upset generally. ~ So_much so that just now he is all off the east and has been heard to state that even if the Shelby fight promoters had failed to put up that second hun- dred thousand he would not have withdrawn Dempsey. . sir. he would show these sup- posedly cagey New Yorkers that no matter what they did in the way of knocking this July 4 encounter through disparaging Gibbons’ ability they could not kill the fight. And to this‘end. he avers. he would have taken a healthy loss. Kearns wants to have Dempsey meet Harry Wills » 0 a fight in Montana in September. and if this Shelby affair does not Vrove to be an entire disaster Mon- tana interests will enter the bldding tor_the battle. No matter what losses are entailed, the Dempsey-Gibbons fight will be held. These ‘Montanans are no pikers That is the last thing they are. The money for the fight will all be raised and the battle will be held. To date Kearns has been paid $210.000 and the arena and incidental expe iave aggreggzated about $100,000. There is a $:10,000 iabil- ity. With the figkt going on, it is’ figured that there cranot be more than a gross lo=s of $1100.000—which the present promoters are prepared to face—and there is a, chance that the fight may pay a profit. VILLA OFFERED $50.000 TO BATTLE IN MANILA MANILA, June 25.—The Olympic stadium hére has cabled Pancho Vil- la, Filipino fiyweight fighter, who re- cently defeated Jimmy Wilde, the Eritish titleholder, an offer of $30,000 to fight Jose Suzara in Manila. Tt is declared there thag scuh a bat- tle would attract the greatest crowd ever gathered for a Spomting event in the far east. MITCHELLS TO FIGHT.

INSIDE GOLF By GeorgetO'Neil We have discussed and you have otherwisé been cautloned about the old rule: Keep your eye on the ball.

Two million-dollar JAPANESE NET PAIR WINS “MET” DOUBLES NEW YORK, June 25.—After play- ing mediocre tennis for one set, the Japanese team of Seiichiro Kashio and Masamosuke Fukuda reached the height of their_form and, by an ex- hibition of skill rarely seen outside of Davis' cup competition, captured the metropolitan clay court doubles champlonship yesterday afternoon. The Nipponese combination, the first purely forelgn pair ever to win the time-honored crown, humbled Watson M. Washburn, member of the United States Davis cup team in 1921, and Frederick C. Anderson in the final round in three out of four | #ts, the score being 3—6; 6—4, 6—2, Coming on top of his defeat by Dr. George King and the crushing of his hopes of taking the fifteen-year-old singles cup out of competition, the setback was a stiff one for Wash- burn. But, after that first set, the Nipponese players outclassed their rivals. As a result of the victory, Fukuda gained his first important title since arriving in America, and the show- ing of the Japanese champion and his partner seemed to improve their chances in the Davis cup competition. If they can continue to play such doubles as they did yesterday they will be able to give almost any team a battle. It was the wonderful defensive play of the two oriental stars that pro- vided the featuer of the match. Their defense wus faultless. When they did make an error it was more be- cause of the forcing shots of their opponents than through any lack of control on their part. Kashio was the bright star in this respect. It was al- most uncanny the way he to get the ball back. S While Kashio was steadiness itself, Fukuda did most of the offensive work. It was he who finished the noints time and again. He was dead- ly accurate in overhead volleying and smashing. To give Fukuda a short lob was to insure the ending of that particular rally. He never failed to put the ball away. trol was good and he placed his drives on many occasions to the very feet of the contestants on the other side of the net, so that Washburn ! !nar Anderson was able to off the ground, e {SIXTY-FOUR NETMEN IN COLLEGE TOURNEY .

Sunday dinner was almost the only visible evidence that the champion was celebrating his twenty-eighth birthday. Wil Visit His Vietim. Dempsey today plans to visit “Big Ben” Wray, Sayre, Okla., glant who is in a hospital suffering from a broken jaw recelved when he was knocked out in less than a minute by the champion last Friday. “I didn’t mean to hurt him,” Demp- sgey sald, “I only wanted to fool around with him for a while. I didn't think the punch was hard enough to knock him over, much less crack his jaw.” ‘Wray is not the only invalid-on the hospital list.

IMBLETON, England, June 25.—England, upon whose historic turf the “world” tennis championships are being held this year for the last time, beginning today, has captured but a small share of the laurels gathered in the decade that these title events have been here. America and Australasia have virtually monopolized the honors in men's events, while the scintillating performances of Mlle. Suzanne Lenglen have carried France's tricolor to victory in a large proportion of the women’s championships. The Wimbledon events have carried the “world” title designation since 1913, when it was conferred in perpetuity by the International Lawn Tennis Association. Objection on the part of the United States to this award, however, and the fact that frequently the lists failed to include many of the leading stars, combined this year to cause the abandonment of the events as they afe now conducted, effective in 1924. One of the first results of this move was the acceptance by the United States of an invitation to become affiliated with the International Federation. While the “world's” titles gained at | 1921. M.
