DEMPSEY REFUSES

Champion Not Eager for Match

day, at least, Jack Dempsey, king of
the heavyweights, returned on the

main here for one or two days and
then go to Los Angeles to visit his
mother.
Before the ship locked, both the
champion and his manager, Jack
Kearns, spiked the suggested bout with
Harry Wills, negro challenger, pro-
posed by Tex Richard and Frank
Fl%ournoy for July ! at Montreal.
Dempsey is not really out of condition,
both he and his manager protested, but,
said Jack, no so soon after a trip to
Europe. Have you ever been in
If Dempsey is matched late in the
summer, the bout may be staged in
Europe, said Kearns. who is enthusi-
astic over the purse English promoters
have proposed. He confirmed the re-
port that Dempsey is to meet Georges
again some time before next
May, somewhere in Europe.
Should American promoters offer q
purse for a Labor Day
bout with Wills, Willard or anyone. it
will be accepted, but if a match doesn't
materialize at home the champion will

SUCCESS
WITHOUT BABE GOOD
FOR DISCIPLINE
Fans Still Looking for Ruth TO
Garry Away Swatting
HOnOrS.

New York. May 19.-The suspension
of Babe Ruth and Bob Meusel is cost
ing the Yankees a lot of money at the
gate, but in many respects these sus-
pensions are proving a mighty good
thing for the club.
Ruth is a loyal rooter for the Yam
KEGS, but it must be a little shock to
the new Yankee captain to observe
that the Yanks are doing as well with
out him as with him.
The question now is being asked all
over the league whether Ruth's home
runs were mostly circus stuff, or
whether they had real value in the win
ming of games. The best answer to
that is that Ruth scored III runs and
drove in 40 more last season, and
such a parcel of runs is bound to de-
eide a lot of games.
But the Yanks now are winning
without Ruth, and it is great stuff
despite Ruth's remarkable skill, be is
not indispensable. Even with a less
robust batsman in his place, his team
is in front.
Notwithstanding this Ruth still is
conceded the home-run crown of the
major leagues which is quite a tribute
to his greatness. What other athlete
could concede to his opponents an adj
vantage equivalent TO one-fourth of
the entire struggle and still be acclaim
ed victor?
Could Paddock, great as he is, give
any of 10 sprinters % yards in 100
and beat them to the tape? Not by
a good go feet of cinders, he couldn't.
Neither could Weismuller do it in any
event. Nor could Dempsey
hope to be triumphant over quite a
few likely foes if he were deprived of
% per cent of bis normal efficiency.
Yet no one doubts that. even with
3S days of golden opportunity taken
away, the ponderous Babe" will lead
the field of rival ~sluggers. or that he
will double the quantity output Of his
nearest competitor in the matter of
circuit drives.
