Both Babe and Jack
Likely To Go Broke

When Babe Ruth and Jack Demp.
sey can become fabulously rich in
baseball and puglllsm the college
student probably wonders why he
should go to school. But Babes and
Jacks are, very, very scarce. Had
either Babe or Jack taken a college
course he would have been the bet.
ter for II. 1t would have meant a
greater future. Chances are that
both Ruth and Dempsey will be
nearly broke five years after they've
stepped down off the pedestal
Even the college presidents are
sore at the football coaches, because
the latter make the most money.
But it's a short life and a gay one.
A college president might become
President Of the country some day.
The coach might, too, but we've
never heard OF one being such.

Dempsey Won Fairly
From French Marvel

Manager Descamps continues to
dig up new excuses to account for
Dempsey's victory over Carpenter
last July 2. Now he blames the
referee for allowing Dempsey to
hold and hit. 1t 10 true that Car
pentier was ruined by those chop
ping blows to the neck delivered
at close quarters, but Dempsey
fought fairly enough and the referee
was not at fault.
The fault was entirely with
Georges, who used decidedly bad
generalship. Instead of using his
nimble legs to avoid punishment he
tried clinching and holding. This
was terrible mistake, for Demp-
sey was altogether too strong for
him at close quarters.
IL Carpenter had known how to
use his feet he might have had a
chance. Good footwork combined
with that deadly right hand of his
would have made a dangerous com.
bination. He was too fast for Jack
at long range, but at close range
he was pitifully weak.
