/ ~~ CHAMPION SHOULD LOWER TERMS FOR CHALLENGERS Matches With Wills, Willard and Others Could Be Arranged if Dempsey’s Demands Were More Reasonable — Champion Could Fight Once a Month t i By Robért Edgren. “There are as good fish in thé sea hs ever were caught,” and it's a joke to say that Jack Dempsey can't get @ny work in his specialty. Wonder what the old-time champions would have sald if they'd been offered ten ver cent. of the amount Dempsey could make, if he wanted to, in the ring during the coming six years. The trouble is that the champion 1g holding out for big purses. He if He Wanted to. if he wants to. All that he'll need to do is forget the big money he got with Carpentier and be satisfled to fight often for comparatively small purses, then he'll find the promoters willing to take a chance. Dempsey may‘not be able to shake the plum tree for another $300,000, but the notion that he'll have to go back to riding the brake-beam because he has fought himself out of a job is a joke. Probably Jack could take on Wil- lard, Brennan, Wills and Carpentier if he won the first three bouts and THE EVENING WORLD, SATURDAY, AUGUST 12, DEMPSEY’S DEMANDS FOR BIG PURSES BLOCK MANY BOU 1922, T$ “AS GOOD FISH IN SEA AS EVER WERE CAUGHT” (Copyright, 1922, by Robert Hdgren.) —S Tee Trousce wim “TS DEEP SEA FISHING DEMPSEY-BREN HAS BEEN CLINCHED FOR MICHIGAN CITY eat Sa Champion Will Meet Man Who Gave Him His Hard- est Bout Labor Day.

Of course it is pointed out that Dempsey has ‘‘signed’’ or ‘agreed’ to take on the four leading challeng- ers. But, except for the Brennan bout, which at this writing seems pretty sure to be held at Michigan City, Labor Day, “signed” and “‘agreed’’ mean nothing. They are off-set by the jokers in the “‘articles”’ that makes the bout itself contingent upon time, place and purse matters still to be settled. And as long as the champion de- doesn’t help a boxer anyway and it behooves Jack to gather his rosebuds while he may, to make hay while the sun shines and get while the getting is good. If he takes on the big four in succession and lays aside a consid- erable fortune—which is well within the possibilities and certainly accord- ing to every rule of sportsmanship— the champion can then lay back and await a new crop of challengers. It will not be a long wait. Demp- sey is at or past the peak of his form.

On a grand average, Hagen will stick closer to form than Mitchell. ex will occasionally have lapses, " Dale ‘Aid last season, when poor put- ing had him badly worried for a while. But after each temporary slump Hagen returns and plays bet- ter golf than ever. It is not easy for Mitchell to regain top form, especially when his putting goes wrong. Like many English pro- fessional stars, Abe will encounter spells when he positively is afraid of his putter, and no golfer is ever stronger than his putting. If the short shots on the green do not con- sistently run in, low scores are out of the question. In the national championship at Bkokle, Mitchell, in the early rounds, had trouble putting. And so did George Duncan, his countryman. Both Mitchell and Duncan, by sheer Setermination, recoyered their putting fouch in time and“became contenders in the race. From the tees Mitchell will out- drive Hagen, who ts not the extr Jong swatter that most fans belleve. Hagen prefers to make a drive almost all carry, and is satisfied to let op- ponents strain for additional distance with the danger.of pressing and land- a trouble. {le Mitchell will gain more dis- fance, this advantage may be offset by Hagen getting better direction. It 1s a fine sensation to feel the thud of a long drive, but it is doubly satisfy- tng to know the shot ts well placed on the fairway and not resting in tall grass or yearning sand trap.
