It was rumored that Branch Rickey of the St. Louis Cardinals had offered Chick Hafey, the be- spectacled left flelder; two pitchers and $25,000 in cash for Klein, but that the offer had been refused. Klein is at his home in Indian- apolis and has asserted that he will not sign unless he is given $14,500 for 1931. The Phillies are under- stood to have offered him $12,500. ‘The Phillies arrived here today on their way home from their training camp at Winter Haven. They plan _to remain here until Monday. 'DEMPSEY-WILLS SUIT ALMOST RING AFFAIR Attorney Takes Seriously Jack's Statement He Now Is Ready to Battle Negro. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, March 27.—Jack Demp- sey's retirement may become a forgot- ten announcement if representatives of Harry Wills take him at his word. During the testimony of Paddy Mul- during the $500,000 breach of contract suit against Dempsey, the former champion cried out, yesterday: “Let 'em put up the money. I'll fight him right now.” The Coliseum Club, of which E. B. Clements is president, is suing Dempsey for failure to meet the New York Negro before Dempsey lost 'his title to Gene Tunney in Philadelphia back in 1926. Dempsey claims that no contract exist- ed, since the Coliseum Club failed to make an advance payment of $125.000 to bind the agreement. He also con- tends he was to have received an ad- ditional $625,000 before the fight. Clements, on hearing Dempsey’s state- ment, retorted that he would raise the money and that Dempsey would receive $300,000 by August if he meant what he said about fighting Wills.
