Roper Brought To The Front
 As Dempsey Candidate

Therefore, who is left that has been tried and found to be a worthy foe man-Capt. Bob Roper. During the last five years Roper has met some of the best big fellows and has come out with colors flying. and has never met with knockout. Roper easily defeated the much touted Bob Mar tin. whom the press had thought had a chance with Dempsey.
 Roper stopped Carl Morris in three rounds recently, something none of the others have been able to do. Also, Bill Brennan, Harry Greb, Tom Gib- bons, and has knocked out Al Rob- erts, Frank Moran, K. O. Sampson, and many other lesser lights"
 That's all right, Eddie, but if Bob does get a crack at Dempsey in the next year or two be sure Bob's affairs are all settled and his good suit well pressed.

what heavyweight has a better right to a battle with Champion Jack Dempsey than Captain Bob Roper"
 That's the question that Eddie Mead. manager of Roper, is asking now that efforts are being made to groom a man to meet the champion Here's what. Mead says:
 Much is being said these days re- garding opponent for Champion Jack Dempsey, but opinions seem to differ as to who should have chance. Bill Brennan, Battling LeVinsky, Billy Miske and Harry Wills have been khrown into the discard by most sport writers and there is left only Tom Gibbons, Harry Greb and Capt. Bob Roper.
 s'Nost good judges of boxing are of the opinion that Greb, although great ring man. is too small and would have little chance with the champion. Tom Gibbons has had lit tie experience with the good big men.

Johnny Rawlings. reduced from the
 ranks of the Giant regulars by the
 acquisition of Heinie Groh, has ac-
 cepted his fate in a splendid spirit,
 quite worthy of this little fine fellow.
 Speaking of the coming season the
 other day is Los Angeles, Rawlings
 said:-
 "Groh will be used at third base,
 second, which means that shall have
 to sit the bench. I don't care
 where I play or where it sit long
 as play or sit for John McGraw."
 That McGraw appreciates Raw
 ltngs's value to the Giants even
 though he is not available for use as
 a regular member of the infield again,
 was demonstrated when he said re- gently that Johnny is the best utility E.silder he has had in many seasons. Reserve strength always has been long suit with the Eiant manager and he is pleased beyond measure at hay ing player of RawHngs's caliber for emergency use.
 It is evident that Charley Pitts who made Bridgeport his home few years ago is on the skids of his ring career. Pitts received the adverse decision in an eight round bout with Georg1e Ward, New Jersey weIter, n few days ago.
 Pitts was we'll liked here. He was real gentleman out of the ring and real fighter in 1t. He was a game
 ster and never known to shirk in his fights here and was 8 favortte with ring fans wherever he fought. Golf enthusiasts of Bridgeport and vicinity will have an oppOr- tunity of witnessing the best in the links sport in May, when the Eastern international champion

The actors association. which Is the

founding a college TO eliminate the

so-called actors and actresses for the

The curriculum already outlined is cx-

given formal utterance as to what he
thinks the other actors should be
taught. The curriculum includes the
theory and laws of motion, gesture and

and the wardrobe.
While the officials OF the association
do not seek to interfere with the pres
ent actors. they aim to give special IA
cilitics to their children and TO open spe-
clal courses for the non-theatrical pub
lie es well as training future stars.
I've aim to qualify those entering the

which an appeal for endowments will
