THS WINTER Y SOUTH AMENC AGAINST LOCAL ACEYS HERESUADAY . With .a reputation of being one’ 03 %k, Aug. 24—(By the A. P) +Jack Dempsey, worlds heavyweight <hampion, is wiling to go to oSuth Am- erica either this fall or next spring to meet Luis Angel Firpo, holder of the South American crown, and Tex Rickard, noted promoter, is willing to stage the bout. LR After a conference with Jack Kearns Pempsey’s manager, Rickard an- pounced ' this afternoon that the sug- Bested match depends on' Firpo. Some time ago . Richard declared that he was too busy in the United Btates to take a flier below the equa- tor and earlier than that Kearns de- clared that Dempsey had a $600,000 | garon offer to go to Argentina but would| not. accept it. In the meantime much that was supposed to happen has not material- fzed. - he would Rickard felt sure that istage a championship tilt between | {Dempsey and Jess Willard, former champion, -this October, and Kearns was confident that in addition to this E;tch Jack would also meet Bill nnan and gather a few dollars. The Willard match seems to have faded away, the “Big Fellow” insist- ing that he cannot get into condition before late October and Rickard com- plaining that such a date is too late|* for an outdoor meeting. He could not take in enough money in a closed arena. with which to pay the boxers in No- Fember, Rickard opines. The Dempsey-Brennan match for Xabor day fell ghrough wken Guvern- or McCray of Indiana prohibited it, and Kearns said today that instead signed for a few exhibition rounds with sparring partners in the bowl that ¥Floyd Fiizsimmons had especially | bullt at Michigan City, Ind, for the, Brennan match. Should Firpo be unwilling. to meet | P Dempsey this fall, then the cham- plon probably will go to Europe in th &pring for a second match with Geoges Carpentier, who lost to the “Masassa Mauler” at Jersey City last year. When Dempsey and Kearns returned from | their spring visit to Europe the cham- plon’s manager claimed to have a contract for a match with Carpentier | in France or England next year, each being permitted” to fight anyone else in the interval If Dempsey has to forego the South American jaunt and take on Carpen- tler he may be accompanied to Eu- rope by Benny Leonard, world's cham- | plon lightweight, who hsa had the overseas bea in his bonnet for more than a year. It was learned today that Leonard's Jaw | sinfected from the lacerations of his teeth caused by the hard punches of Lew Tendler at Jersey City & month ago and further aggruvutedl by several wallops landed by Ever Hammer, Chicago boxer in a bout that followed at Michigan City. The wounds are not dangerous, Bil- 1y Gibson, manager of Leonard, de- clared, but the champion will be un- der a dental surgeon’s care for two DENPSEY WG 10 WEET 0 five times up.

The Framingham team is composed largely of the pick of the] Massachusetts college teams for the past féw seasons and so far this sea- son have been playing winning ball There.is much speculation as to the outcome of ‘a contest with Framing- ham and until the announcement that a new batiery had been secured there had been little hope held out for the local team. Since it became known that Chippie Gaw was going to be in the box for the local team the opinion is that Norwich has a good chance of coming through with the game. Framingham has beaten Ware and if compared with Ware it will be found that the team is fully as strong if not stronger than the Ware aggre- gation. In comparing Gaw with Kroog it is found that they are about on an equal footing, Gaw having been beat- en on May 30th by Chick Davies 1 to 0. Davies has beaten Krpog and Gaw has also beaten ' Kroog but both Gaw. and Kroog have won from the other pitchers in Mas- sachusetts. Gaw won his 19th game this week and writes that he expects to beat Kroog in the coming conflict. If Gaw pitches up to his uspal stan- dard and is given any kind of sup- port it looks good for the local team to_be returned a winner. . Playing in back of Kroog Framing will have, Quinn, former catcher for Rochester. in’the Intérnational league and Danville in the Three-I League, Philips of Boston College, Halloran of -+Holy Cross, Wilson of Boston College, Crowther.of Brown, Goldsmith of the ford of Boston College and Cox_of Dorchester A, A. 7 This is an imposing array of ball talent and compares favorably with any team that has appeared here so far not excepting Ware. The local team will have Gaw and Foley for the battery and the remainder of the team will be the same as last Sunday.

Louhran came back gamely and made a great battle, so much so that some writers were inclined to judge the match a draw. Tunney was bleeding from the mouth -and nose much of the time.
