Former Champion Likes Money a5 Well as Another Fight By the Assoclated Press. New York, June 23\ — Jack| Dempsey may be consumed by an {intense desire to fight his way back | 4‘!0 the heavyweight championship, but at the same time he isn't over- looking the little matter of percent- age or guarantees. 1 It seems fairly well established | that his financlal agreement with |Tex Rickard will net more money |than any ex-champion or any cham- pion—outside of himself and Gene | Tunney—ever received, whether the jerstwhile “man-killer of Manassa™ |appea“s in one or two battles this | year. |” On the basis of 30 per cent of the |ate receipts, Dempsey's “cut” for | |the fight with Jack Sharkey figures {to be $300,000 if the “gate,” as Rick- | ard expects, goes to the million-dol- | lar mark. | If Dempsey wins, he will get more Pet. |than the 15 per cent first mentioned | _649 |in connection with prospects of a re- | ‘607 |turn bout with Tunney. The ex-| '35 |champion settled this moot point | .500 | With Rickard on a compromise basis. | 467 |1t is likely he will get around 20 or | "420!25 per cent which would net him .400 another $300,000 or $400,000 if the 367 | “gate” tops $1,500,000. Dempsey thus has the pleasant| | prospect, as an ex-champion of cash- ing in to the extent of close to $700,- 1000, it he gets into the two “big]| Pet. 117 .565 .550 517 473 458 A48 250 ‘bers are cordially invited. | | pen it I other well known stars in its lineup | Philadelphia at Brooklyn. | shots” of the year, or nearly %as e St z fust intne iy ANDUL Bike Event to Be Held at Velodrome Tonight every tennis enthusiast in the city and visitors and prospective mem- Hartford, June 23.—(A—The “Golden Wheel” race, held at the Hartford Velodrome bike track but once each scason, is set for Thurs- day night of this week, which also. will be “Insurance Night” wit® delegations of fans from all lead- ing insurance companies. | A great field will meet in this Orphans From Tiffin, 0., | To Give Concert Here | A public concert to which there | will be no admission charge will be given under the auspices of Cham- berlain Council, No. 2, Jr. O.

Chichgo, June 23 (A—Bud Taylor, a ring headliner for eight years, and Tony Canzoneri, almost unknown a year ago, meet against tonight in a ten round battle for the bantam- welght crown at Wrigley field. They fought last March to a draw. Taylor, the pride of Terre Haute, has predicted today a knockout by him in five rounds. for England. “I won't know wheth- er I'll go or not until I get to New York,” Jones said, “and probably not until I step aboard the steamer.” The Erskine Six has all the beauty and comfort designed into it by Dietrich, combined with all the power and performance built into it by Studebaker. See it today— America’s firstfine carof small size. — The Erskine Six has upkeep on the downgrade.

Forthwith, Mike makes two addi- | tlonal predictions—first that he will | turn the tables on Jack Delaney and | |win the light-heavyweight title in their July 7 bout at the Yankee| stadium; second, that Dempsey will | whip Sharkey. TENNIS CLUB NOTES William Van Oppen and Louis Vogel | Elected Directors at Tuesday | Night's Meeting. | At a meeting of the New Britain | Tennis club held Tuesday evening at the grounds, new directors were elected to fill the places vacant, Wil- llam Van Oppen and Louis W. Vogel were elected. By unanimous vote it was decided to permit junior mem- bers to join the club at a very mini- mum cost, in this way hoping to de- velop the tuture tennis stars of the city. A real effort is being made to work up interest in tennis activities here. The first of a serles of challenge matches was played between Wil-! liam Van Oppen and L. W. Vogel. A large and enthuslastic gallery watch- ed this fast battle. It was nip and tuck for a considerable length of time, and until the very last min- ute it was anybody's game but con- dition and stamina told in the end and Van Oppen managed to squeeze | through.
