Finding himself in & jam with the Fistic Fathers he will go before the members of the state athletic com- mission today ready to sign any agreement to settle this long time controversy and thus to make his peace 80 that at least he may be able to see Mickcy Walker in action against Harry Greb at the Polo Grounds this evening. In making this declelon IKearns will tell them that he realizes that he had beén placed in an unfortu- nate and undignified position by b ing barred, as manager, not only from Mickey Walker's corner, but that he has been further injured with new syndicates and other con- cerns with which he is doing busi- ness. It the fathers are in a receptive mood they will at last have their way In this Dempsey-Wills business. The cards are ready to be spread on the table. It is the show-down. Dempsey Must Agree Dempsey will accept the challenge through Kearns, and it must stand, for it was only a few weeks ago that Dempsey himself, on a visit to the board, sald that Iearns still was his manager, had the right to sign for him, and that any hout Kearns agreed upon would suit him." That's the whole #hing in a nut- shell. The boxing commission has sought to bring this bout to a head and there it will be, right before them. It will be up to the commis- slon to accept or reject, and since the members of the board have said all along that they desired only a yes or mo answer, they must act one way or another. Kearns realizes that he spoke a bit out of turn in asking the com- mission to become promoters, inas- much as (hey, according to Kearns, were seeking to make a match be- tween Dempsey and Wills. That's old stuff now. The champion, through his manager, will accept the Wills defi this morning. Kearns regrets the whole episode |and says he has no desire to an- tagonize the commission. Walker's Manager Most of all he wants to be recog- [nized as Walker's manager and de- lsires above all to be in his corner | |tonight to advise in a situation un- Iparalleled in Tistiana—that of trying to dethrone a middlewelght king. Walker has appealed in Kearns' behalf. saying that in this, the crisis of his whole career, he wants a man of Kearns' braing and ability at his elbow. And *hat seems a most rea- sonable request. Kearns was placed on the “inel- igible” list by the eommission, along with Jack Dempsey, when he fused to answer point hlank, yes or no, whether the champlon would accept the challenge from Kearns insisted that he had « ed la Wills challenge during the term of William Muldoon as chairma of the board. That hout was signed re- for at | weiterwelght champlon of the world Wills. | and Kearns states that he was or- | SOUTH CHIIRGH PROTESTS VICTORY OF BLUEBIRDS Executive Committee of League to Decide Question at Meeting Tomorrow Night Manager Kermet E. Parker of the South Congregational church team, has lodged a formal protest with President Ernest R. Dechant of the church league, over the victory of the Bluebirds, the team representing the Blue Army of Everyman's Bible clasg in the Irague, on night. Manager Parker's protest is based on the clalm that the Blue Armwy used an ineligible man during the contest which violates the “Ringer” clause in the rules governing the league. The “Ringer” in question over whom the protest is made, is |Louls Baltscr, He played second {base for the Blue Army. | President Dechant of the has called a mecting of the execu- {ive committee of the league for to- |morrow night at 7 o'clock at the | Boys' elub at which the protest will | be submitted to the governing board ifor settlement. | Mr. Dechant, besides being presi- dent of the league, is also manager of the Bluebirds and he makes a | zeneral denial of the charges made by the manager of the South church team. Both men in question helong (o the South chureh and both are also members of the: Blua army. This will surely he a “friendly” argu- ment. Mr. Dechant ciaims that there is no “Ringer clause in the league rules and also clalms that as there were no lists of players required to Dbe submitted, Mr. Baltser cannot be declared ineligible. The protest was submitted to Dwight Skinner, man- ager of the league for settlement, but he declin®d to act without a full I meeting of the exccutive board.

A double feature {s offered. The welterweight champion, Mickey Walker of Elizabeth, N. J., fights the middleweight king, Harry Greb of Pittsburg; Harry Wiils, negro giant, who has long clamored for a meet. ing with the heavywelght champios meets the rejuvenated veteran oi Newarl, N. J, Charley Weinert, In the V. b tussie a titl wil be at stake, but only en one side. Walker cannot lose his, be- cause his opponent will enter the ring far over the welterwelght limit But Walker may win the crown that the Pittsburg man took from the head of Johnny Wilten, .Greb is the favorite, for he has speed, power and courage considered sufficlent to offset the brilliant attack that is sure to come from the sturdy bat- tler from Jersey. No champlonship will be at stal~ when Wills and Weinert face each other, but the ambitions of eithcr may be shattered. Far in the offing, very far, it would seem, looms a bout with the champion, Dempsey. Wills has gought the opportunity for yeal Weinert would cherish the chance. And in coming up to the actual challenge round each bas con- quered the man who a few years ugo sent Dempsey hurtling through the ropes on this selfsame Polo Grounds, Luis Angel Firpo. The state athletlc commission has been ealled upon to decide many is- sues in connection with this stupen- Gdons program—the question of post- ponement from June 13, found necessary when Walker suffered an injury in training: the question as to which is the feature bout, a mat- ter still in the balance, and the status of Jack Kearns who, it is lreported, even will agree to a Wills- [Dempsay mateh 'in order that i may gain admission to the grounds [to second Walker tonight. Kearns \lias been notified that he will he (barred from the grounds because he ignared a challenge by Wills, Jimmy Slattery, lighting fast mid- ht from Buffalo, will face lade, California welterweight, for six rounds and this should give spectators som: ldea of what de and Walker weuld do if [nlaced in the ring together.
