A young man, who has beer

rather cynical golfers at a GER

Where the Hitch Is.


TT is probable. that Mullins will
yield this point when he con-
= fers, with Jack Kearns again,
but a hitch is likely to develsp
over the time allowed for consid-
Grafton of bids. Wills wants to
fight this year, and Mullins ia
vors the acceptance Of the best
bid offered by a reliable promo
ter within the next, thirty days.
This would permit the bout be-
jng held in an open-air arena
early in October, and give the
principals two months in which
to prepare for it.
The fact that Tex Richard is
disinclined to handle an affair of
such financial proportions on
short notice may influence the
bidding to such an extent that
neither Wills nor Dempsey will
care to accept the terms offered
by any other promoter.
For this reason Kearns will re-
fuse to tie himself up to any
agreement to accent the highest
bid made within thirty days.
Bout Needs Time.
DEMPSEY'S astute manager
knows what the bout will
draw next summer if suffi-
cient time is allowed to bally-hoo
it and he does not propose to be
forced into taking less money for
the champions end than he could
get next year. The match is esy
sentially an open-air proposition,
and unless everybody works fast
it cannot be pulled off before cold
weather sets in.
II, however, Rickard or some
other reliable promoter, weighs in
with what Kearns considers a
reasonable bid, the champion's s
manager is willing to sign articles
at once.
Kearnss was anxious to make
some progress before going on
tour with Dempsey again. II
Paddy Mullins persists in holding
up the negotiations the fight may
definitely be declared off until
next year.
