THE younger school has not yet sue.

the old guard in the American.
This has been largely due to the prev
alence of Ty Cobb. The old runrd

Jackson, Eddie Collins and Iris

the two schools. .
Those leading the oncoming genera
tion are George Sisler, Sam Rice, Babe

Cobb has started poorly this season,

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 11.--Jack
Dempsey's war record Will be
thoroughly sifted before the federal
grand jury now in session here Is
through with its investigation, 1t was
stated today. When the grand jury
has finished either all charges will
be dropped and all rumors disposed

and the matter threshed out in open
court.
The grand jury late yesterday
questioned Mrs. Maxine Dempsey,

her original charge that jack was a
Stacker and lodged the draft and as
to her affidavit later generating

Other witnesses were heard and
the probe continued today.

Nittfs declaration that resumption Of
normal relations between Italy and
Russia is most important, was taken
to mean that he will support Lloyd
George in the British premier's de-
mand for resumption of trade with
Russia. Millerand, observers pointed
out, took exactly an opposite stand,
declaring that while France desires
to do all possible for the Russian
people she will not enter into reia-
lions with the soviet government
and the French believe trade rela.
tons a first step toward recognition
of Lenine and Trotsky.

American fight promoter who staged
the Dempsey-Willard fight, undoubt-
eddy will put on the next worlds
championship contest between Jack
Dempsey and Georges Carpenter, &C
cording to NJ. Descamps, manager Of
the European champion.
Descamps, after announcing today
he had received assurance that Rick
ard had signed Dempsey. said he
probably would sign with the Ameri-
can promoter as soon as he arrived
In America late in March.
In securing the signature OF the
worlds champion. Richard has out
distanced Theodore Vienne, Charles
3. Cochrane and William Fox, who
made big offers. for Carpenters serv-
ices. but were unable to get Demp-
sey's name on the agreement, he
said.
Descamps left today with his
charge for a weeks exhibition in
Monte Carlo, following which they
are to take a tour Of Italy. Before
leaving, Descamps, in an interview
said he hoped with his statement to
clear up the situation and permit
the American fans to know the real
situation.
1--WE will undoubtedly sign with
Dempsey through Tex Richard as
soon as we arrive in America, he
said. Developments have reached
such a stage that / can announce the
receipt of a message from Richard on
December 20, last, in which he gave
assurance that he had signed Demp.
sey. Showing Dempsey's signature
through his representative here, he
offered to come to Paris and sign
with me. replied then 1t was un'
necessary, as Charles B. Cochrane,
London promoter, had an option on
Carpenters service until February 1,
and that as we were due in America
! shortly after that we could complete
