PA Razzberry for 12 Tex Rickard Fooled ’Em Once, but Return Bout Be- tween Willard and Dempsey Is Bound to Flivver; Concerning Tommy Gibbons’ List of Knockouts BY LEO H. LASSEN =X RICKARD, the demon promoter, got away with dynamite and a sock full of dough when Jack Dempsey and Georges Carpentier put on their million-dollar four- round fiasco at Jersey City July 2. He actually kidded the public until they believed that Carpentier really had a chance, and among the public were several hundred fight writers. ‘ And now Rickard is trying to slip another exchange for nice greenbacks when he talks of matching Jess Willard, cheesy champion, with Dempsey for a bout in Gotham next summer. Willard is said to have been a success in oil, but that’s no sign that Rickard can get away with it, if you know what we mean. . When Willard lost the title to Dempsey in Toledo he was already an old man as boxers go, and it’s a cinch he hasn’t grown any younger since. And he hasn’t been box- ing any that we have heard about. i Let Willard box Harry Wills and lick him before he is allowed to fight Dempsey. It’s our humble opinion, gathered from what we have read of the two men, that Wills would knock Willard for more goals than the city bowling league scores at the Ideal alleys every Thursday night. There wouldn't be any use of Willard going out and push- ing over a bunch of hams and then claiming a bout with Dempsey, because there will always be talk that the bouts had their arrangements. But Wills, mg og for a title bout himself, would undoubt- edly fight hi: t against big Jess and if he did that it would ly be the cuckoo lullaby for the former champ. Tommy Gibbons’ List of K.

Oct. 22.-— Forty years ago Michigan embedded ‘Weatern feet on Princeon’s field. Since 1881, cleats from “out there” have been strangers on Old Nassau’s battle ground. Today history turns back, when the University of Chicago meets the Tigers in Palmer stadium. =~ Michigan went down in that first game, but today's missionaries from the Western conference have hopes of making the count even, NOTRE DAME TO PLAY NEBRASKA SOUTH BEND, Oct. 22,—-Notre Dame met Nebraska today in the second Important game of the year for Coach Rockney’s squad. Due to the defeat which the Hoosiers suf- fered at the hands of Towa, the Ne | braska squad was confident of hum- bling the powerful Notre Dame team. MITCHELL WINS MILWAUKEE MIX California's crippled eleven faces the green Oregon squad. The real strength of the Bears will be tested with a flock of their starts out of the game, including “Brick” Muller. In the Middlo West the chances for Ohio State repeating their 1920 title march may get a jolt from at Ann Arbor, If the Staters win they have a fine chance to op agnin. Wisconsin meets [ll- nois at Madison in another vital tiff. Tiinols has already met defeat, but they can knock Wisconsin's chances for a home run if they win. Farther East, the Big Three are facing tough opponenta. Harvard meets Penn State, Yale plays the Army, and Princeton plays Chicago. All Big Three teams are playing on their home grounds. These battles are some of the biggest games of the season. y And then Syracuse and Pittaburs, two of the football leaders every year, are setting their annual fuss at Pittaburg. The resuite of these games will give the gridiron fans plenty to gow sip over during the coming week.

Many of the players in the California Mid-winter league say that Tris ig thru. Ty Cobb sayn that Speaker told him that his legs were bad and that he could hardly get around in the field fast enough to hold up his end of the playing. Walter Malis, a member of the Indian hurling staff, also thinks that Tris is thru. The original report came from Clevéland, stating that Speaker intended to devote himself to his interests in Texas. THERE 1S CERTAINLY SOMETHING RADICALLY wrong with base- ball if the rules state that players taking part in world series games cannot play post-season games. The magnates figure that there is such & thing as too much baseball and they’re undoubtedly right. But unleas they furnish the men with 12month contracts they have no right to con- trol the playing of the men after the regular season in over. There is a discrimination made when players on the other 14 big league clubs are silowed to play after the regular season. There is no doubt either that Judge Landis i right in hix battle with Babe Ruth, as the law exists, and be is but enforcing the jaw. Until that law is changed Ruth and those ether Yankees that are playng with him should have abided by Landis’ 40K VILA, ONE OF THE VETERANS of the New York baseball press, writes in the St’ Louis Sporting News that silly reports of 100,000 people rtorming the ¢ of the Polo grounds before the first game of the reries between te Yanks and the Giants kept the crowd down, Vila says that not more than 6,000 early birds passed thru the turnstiles, but that a lot of Gotham papers printed fake extras about the huge crowds keeping many people away from the park. ro) SPENCER ABBOTT CREDITS MUCH OF THE success of the Memphis team in the Southern league race the past season to the sort of % got. On the first trip of the Memphis team to “Cecil,” the little black batboy of the Little and finely confided to him: “Bos Abb, I done mascoted dis Little Rock but I cuin't do nothin’ foh ‘em dis time, ‘cause bettah tell Mistah Kid (Elberfeld) to git some 1 can jine youah team; I suah will mascot it to de pennant.” “Boy,” said Abbot, “the Kid's got no claim on you; 80 come along with me.” Cecil hopped the train for Memphis that night and wag with the Chicks from then on. Memphis won the Southern League pennant under Gecii’s mascoting, just ax Little Rock had done the year before. M cANOTHERWY» EATTLE I CREAM 1at prep league. The Indians won because they showed the most power, played the better football, took advantage of bad football on Broadway's part and fought their way to victory. Standing out over the heade of the other players, chief honors of the day went to Captain Forester, the battling fullback of the win- ners, He carried the ball over the Mne both times and he ploughed thru the Broadway forwards for tong gains. INDIAN FORWARDS WORK BETTER The West Seattle forwards out played the Broaday line, the Indian ends, working much better than the Tiger wing men. Several penalties put the ball into Broadway's territory and the In dians gained considerably on an ex- change of kicks. Captain Forester put the ball within scoring dietance for West Seattle and carried it over a few moments later, Goal was kicked. Broadway came within an ace of scoring in the second period when Brasfield snared a long pass from White, but missed anojer one that would have given the Tigers their best chance of the day to score. Willie then tried to drop kick frem the 30 yard line, but missed. ' WILLIS ROOTS LONG ONE Play see-sawed back and forth in the third period, the only feature of this seesion being a 50-yard punt by Wittis, the ball bouncing for 20 yards farther over the Indiang’ linc, traveling 70 yards altogether, Broadway again threatened in the fourth period. when the Tigers gained 40 yards on trick play, with of \ an end run by Garber. ,A penalty eet the Tigers back and they punt- ay for First Tir , Boeing Park, at Maple veterans for the most have been playing Northwest for several Maple eleven is co who served Canada in th vpper Weod Upper Leaf Post. va ed.
