NEW YORK, Sept. 14.-U. PD-
Knocking over frightened d-stiff, rookie
sctups never will give the public /;
real line on the ability of Harry Wills
the colored challenger of Jack Demp-
sey. ....,.
Wills complains that he can't get
any first class opponents, but he has
never made any public appeal for Il
bout with Bill Brennan or Billy Miske.
Brennan, more than any heavy
weight contender, could bring out
what really is in Wills. The Chica 90
heavyweight is too game to b" bother

dore and he can Ia:.e punch.
Wills and Brennan would be good

Use of ordinary judgment and COM
mon "horse sense" by umpires would
do lot to down the complaints about
bad officiating in the major leagues
that have come to the attention of
Commissioner Landis.
Two large out-of- f-town delegations
and q crowd of 1000 orphans attend
ed one of the recent Yankee Washing |
form. In the first inning Ruth hit |
homer, but when he came up in the !
third inning he objected to a called |
third strike. 1t was a mild complaint.
He did not resort to any rough tactics,
but Umpire Connolly ordered him out
of the game.
Apparently the ltmpires have been
instructed not to let Ruth get away
with a thing, but that was going too
far, because Connolly has been none
too quick on the trigger before ON
one occasion during a Yankee Brown
series he let the browns argue about
decision for twenty minutes.
Despite reports that Georges Car
pentier is going to leave the ring and
do his future stuff in the movies,
