Dempsey's status.

John B. Sheridan. a close student OF
boxing Of st. Louis. writes as follows
anent a recent comparison of Dempsey
with preceding heavyweight champions: :
Your essay on Dempsey being the
equal of any former champion Is the only
sensible thing have read about Dempsey
since the Brennan fight / disagree with
you in so far as Dempsey being :he
equal of any former champion. Jeffrlcs.
Johnson, probably Jackson, could in my
opinion have beaten him surely. jeff
would, think, have been cinch to beat
Dempsey. For when JEFF crouched and
covered up 1t was almost impossible to
hit him with effect. He could wait all
day and, then. hit when he had TO. Pos
sibly Jackson. IL he ever was in good
condition, might have got TO JEFF.
think that Johnson could have beaten
JEFF even at the latters best Dempsey?
No.
''Fitzsimmons and Dempsey would have
made q touch and go fight, for they
were both liable to win or lose in one
punch. corbett and Mccoy could scarce
have endured Dempsey's punches.
"You are quite correct about Sullivan,
who was my friend. see that the New
York fans gave Sullivan the vote as be-
ing the greatest of all. Absurd. John
did have the greatest and best effect
upon the ring of any man ever in IL.
! His honesty and his attractive person
ality. his suitability to the day. his
ability to secure publicity for himself
and for the ring. his 'Americanism'
rather blatant. but no more so than
that of many others of to-day. let Sulli-
van do n wonderful lot for the p. r..
He really made IL what IL is to-day. but
he was not great. or even a good, or
fair fighter. In fact, save for that
right hand haymaker. John could not
fight at all
II thank you very much for the keen
pleasure your essay gave me-"

victim to his list yesterday afternoon
at the Commonwealth Sporting Club,

Jerome. who early In his career was
one Of the shiftiest boxers in the ring.

than winning on points, outclassed
Tracy from the first gong and had him
wabbly in the sixth session.
The Bronx boy then stepped in, and
with q pair OF lefts to the face sent
Tracy staggering. Then came a right
uppercut to the chin, and down went

Annual Baquet of
Greenhead Club
Hunt Dine at the Expense of
the Losers

The twelfth annual banquet of the
Greenhead Club took place at the
Lincoln cafe last evening and up
wards of sixty members of that pop
ular hunting club gathered around
the board to partake OF the repast
of roast duck and atrimmins' SO
abundantly provided by the local
Nimrods and SO delectably served
under the direct supervision of Mrs,
Smith.
After the demolition of practical
ly everything in sight except the
dishes, the linen and the cutlery by
the hungry horde, Toastmaster Har-
ry Yetter, realizing that something
must be done to divert their atten-
ton and prevent further inroads on
the cafe larder, cunningly aroused
the instinct of antagonism between
the opposing teams in the recent
hunt, the penalty for the losing OF
which was paying for the feed by
the unlucky losers. Ira Kent cap
tanned the winners and led the hosts
under the leadership of Herb Nor
ton by something like 700 points.
Many were the mendacious tales of
prowess by the winners and similar
ly transparent were the excuses of
the losers.
Baron Munchausen could sit at
the feet OF some of the members of
the Greenhead Club and learn how
to tell a really good one. And yet
in the ordinary walks OF life the
word of these same men are as good
as bond. Which all goes to show
that there is something about the
sports of hunting and fishing that
tends to make prevaricators of the
most exemplary of men.
After everybody who desired had
been given an opportunity to tell
how it happened the club resolved
itself into executive session to plan
for future activities. By unanimous
vote it was determined to hold an
other hunt on Sunday, October "a,
the two teams to be eaptained by Hy
Shellard and Tom kendrick. The
winner of this shoot will captain q
team against Ira Kent, this years
winner in the 1922 hunt.
Attention was called to the injus-
tice done many of the working mem
bers of the Club by the operation o
the law governing the open season
for pheasant which is fixed for Oc-
tober 31st and November 1st of each
year, inasmuch as it seldom occurs
that one of these days falls on Sun
day, the. only day in which many OF
the members can avail themselves
of the opportunity to hunt. 1t was
decided to request the commission
ers to change the ordinance to in
clude a Sunday in the two open days
and which would also be within the
open season for quail, which begins
on November second and continues
for two weeks.
After further discussion on mat.
ters connected with the collection oi
dues the meeting adjourned to again
meet around the festive board on q
date following the hunt of October
23rd.

Legal Treatment Of Road Hogs.

An interesting court action recently
was held in Grand Isle when a motor
list was fined $40 for failure to give
right of way when repeatedly sig.
nailed by motoring party in the rear.
1t will be interesting information to
nearly all users of motor vehicles that
the law permits such an action to be
taken in court, for many OF them have
suffered the discourtesies of a few
drivers without hope OF having the
offenders against road courtesy
brought before the bar of justice. But
the action in Grand Isle court, before
a justice OF the peace, seems to clear
the fog away regarding the legal ahil-
ity Of the road hog. Possibly the in
formation would not have been
brought generally before the public
had not the road hog in this instance
been travelling in front OF two inspec-
tors for the automobile department of
the state. These inspectors were anx-
ious to be on their way and they sig
na.ed three times about their desire,
only to be blocked by the read nog IN
the vehicle ahead and to be nearly
crowded into the ditch when they
did get by. The surprise Of the road
hog was apparent when he learned
that the men travelling in the obstruc-
ted vehicle were inspectors OF the
state automobile department and not
dry" enforcement officers; and the
surprise was no doubt heightened when
he, the road hog. was hailed into court
for his discourtesy. That it was a
clear case OF intended road obstruc.
ton was evident when the respondent
pleaded guilty and paid the fine i'm.
posed. The case ought to be warn
ing to others who are inclined to pre-
empt the road to their own uses, for
the opening up OF the possibilities of
the law by these automobile inspectors
is bound to result in other road hogs
being brought into court another sea
son. Barre Times.
