ENTRY BLANK FOR EATTL E STAR'S Saturday, applitation the make held I Bicy« Seattle hereby Race, under Full name (write clearly) Address Year of birth I am pupil of the to Stock under under Che desired en 16-mile 9 f ‘or all 16 years or 14 12 undersigned for 6 mile ears or 3 miles, I, the give ears or under. parent my permission him Signed (Fill out the blank and m | YY) ato 0 Vernon, “August 30th, Race Editor” of the Seattle Star, Golf is having one of the biggest years in the history of the sport in Seattle, This Is proved by the big entry list of the Golf ers’ Magazine tourney, which is under way at the Jefferson links this week. Over 128 golfers are after the title. Jefferson, of course, has the largest patronage of any of the clubs. Earlington and the North End club are both having a big year also. Young baseball players in Seattle can well model after Claude Thomas, the reliable lefthander of the local club. Thomas is ready to pitch every day in the week if neressary and is in the ball game all of the time. He has the right spirit and de serves every measure of success coming to him. “Tommy” is « like able fellow who doesn't need a shoehorn to put on his hat be cause he happens to win « couple of ball games. His work on the mound yesterday, when he finished up the game after hurling a full affair two days ago, showed the kind of player he is. Since Ole Anderson won the heavyweight title of the North- west thru his win over Young Hector at the Arena the other night, local ringmen are picking an opponent for the Tacoma lad, Jimmy Darcy, the Portland heavyweight, has been suggested, but’ the match has a limburger odor. Darcy would be no match for the Tacoma youth, Cart Morris, the Oklahoma heavyweight, has been suggested as an opponent for the down-sound boy. Carl would at least give Anderson a good workout. When the Seattle Crystal pool relay team made the 250-yard race in 2 minutes, 12 and onehalf seconds in Victoria recently they turned in a mark that rivals that of the New York Athictic club, which is the world's record, of 2:10 2.5. Donald Vickers has a strong quintet In O'Neil, Sternberg, Speidel, McWaters and Kanawaloff. He is willing to send his squad against any relay team on the Coast today, One thing is certain and that is Chet McIntyre, who is training Ole Anderson, will have to teach that worthy how to really hit before he can expect to get anywhere against real high class heavyweights, Ole swings his arms in a half circle and has a tendency to hit with his gloves open. Anderson is a strong and a willing worker and with more tutoring under Chet, the Tacoma boy may yet reach a higher goal in the fighting game on the Coast. He showed « big improvement the other night over the first time he fought Hector, . “ ° Jack Dempsey’s Forefathers | } BY JAZZ BERRY Who said Jack Dempsey's real name was Joseph Schinsky? “Taint so. dack Dempsey'’s an- cestors were fitin’ mountaineers, They fought for nothing because they lived in a belligerent neigh- borhood and because — they couldn't be any different had they wished. ‘ The champeen’s ancestors were champeens, too, They were champeens of Logan county, West Virginia, where once long blue-barreled rifles settled verbal controversies when the two sides to a debate exhausted the vocabulary of them days. Old Ance Dempsey was a plo- neer of aforementioned county. "Tis said he won many a bout. Devil Ance Hatfield, — par- ticipant in the famous McCoy- Hatfield feud (which lasted sev- eral rounds longer than did the Dempsey-Willard extravaganza)), was an inhabitant of the same neighborhood. There must have been a lot of scrapping up in those hills in those days. There always has been and they don't know what | padded mitts look like, either. Mountaineer versus Cowboy, huh? Jess came from where they raise beef. They did a good job on him, And Dempsey came from where they fought on general principles and they did a good job in raising him, too. But when it came to handing | down traits of character they altered Jack's somewhat. He didn't fight on general principles, but on the prospect of making a million dollars in a very short while. Jess Willard and Jack Dempsey had entertained no feudal thoughts. It was a busi- ness, Of course, back in those fendal days one didn't need a million dollars to live comfortably on. They didn't need any money at all up in the mountains. All they needed was a respectable distance between clans and all ‘was peace and comfort. ‘BROAD JUMP RECORD MAY BE BROKEN Athletic enthusiasts in the Middle West are firm in their belief that Carl Johnson, of the University of Michigan, is ot the world’s record for the running broad jump, which is down on the ms | | st ” 6 | | capable & n a 6 a 0 O'Connor's record, there is a bit o doubt in the minds of conservative athletic ‘thinkers because of the tale circulated that the ground over which Peter jumped was a bit down hill, im 24 feet 11% inches, ‘The nearest approach to the per. formance of O'Connor was that of A.

HAMILTON (United Press Staff Correspondent) NEW YORK, Aug. %—The Na- tlonal Sporting club, of New York, about which very little has been said, is not going to relinquish its claim to j the best of pugilism without a strug- gle. And neither is the good old Na- tional Sporting club, of London, going to give up to Promoter Cochran without a show of fight Each of these clubs is laying plans to land a match between World Champion Jack Dempsey and Beckett, who holds the British cham- ptonship. Cochran already has of- fered a purse of tremendous propor- {tions to lure Jess Willard’s conquer- or into a ring with B t, but he is very likely to fail, because Demp- sey doesn't care to risk his title ove seas, Likewise, overtures from the National Sporting club would be looked on by Dempsey and his man- jager with some misgiving, solely be- cause the club is in London.
