 Dempsey, who has been idle for some time, was expected to meet his manager, Jack Kearns, who yedterdav gave New York fight lovers something 10 talk about. It was then learned that MT. Dempsey was on his way east from Los Angeles, had left his social secretary behind. and left Chi cago without looking out Of the car window. All of this was considered as certain signs that MT. Kearns had big plans in view for his protege.
 Rumbr mills became clogged in no time. They had @ wide range. Some told of a proposed trip of the heavy weight champion to Europe, where he would meet Bombadfer Wells, Joe Beckett, George Cook and other pu- gilists in England, and would then wind uip his invasion of the eastern hemisphere by again engaging in fis- tic combat with one Georges Carpen- tier, who last July stopped a lot of punches out at Boyle's Thirty Acres. Jersey City. Another rumor was that Dempsey was to enter a 24 foot ring with Harry Wills, the somber hued mauler from New Orleans, while third had 1t that a return fight with Jess Willard was contemplated.

In the dass when Napoleon Lajoie vas king of second basenen and Honus Wagner swayed the shortst ops of the big leagues. right handed hit ters ruled the ba smau's box. They were successors in a long line Of right handed swaters that dated back to rhe days of Adrian c. AnSUn, Dan Rrouthers and others of note. But in he cycle of hange, when time clothed men in whiter weaker flesh and bone more frail. the left handler came into his own. Nap Lajoie won the batting crown in the American league break ur'tl last year, left handlers have set the pace.
 It fe,l to the lot of Harry Hetlnann, throwback of the old type. 10 re- tore the glory of the north-side swinger in the American league.

One of his drives cleared the left oenr CT field fence In Detroit with feet to spare and bounced off a house across the street from the park. City surveyors measured the drive, which passed distant from the plate. Loud were the whoops Of glee in the City ofI the Straits. and Babe Ruth was invited to ma oh that drive. In fact the base ball world. eager to crown and ac- claim hero, was just as eager to tumble a broken idol in the dust
 Well Ruth wandered into Detroit one day and took a hold of a ball that the pitcher tried to throw past him. T. was a ball t1a. many another batsnaI1 might have let pass, but not the only Bambino. He drove into the leather, and the longest hit ever seen on Navin field sped away The wal top cleared the fence right where the centre field bleachers join the concrete rear wall.
