Harry Greb, of Pittsburgh, announc-
ed on Saturday that he was willing to
meet Sikh, any time, any where, for
any reasonable amount of money. Greb
is the American light heavyweight
champion
What Jack Dempsey is most an
xious about is to have things so turn
out that Sikh will have to fight his way
up through the long list of American
contenders and then finally to Harry
Wills. By this means a contest be-
tween Wills and Dempsey will be
postponed for considerable time The
continued stalling of Dempsey in def
erence to bout with Harry Wills has
gotten on the nerves of the sport
writer's of practically all the big white
daily papers throughout the country
Close observers of the tactics being
used by the various persons interest
ed directly in the fight game see
clearly that Dempsey desires to hold
his title as long as possible, and he
fully realizes that he is no match
for Harry Wills.

JACK DEMPSEY IS
NOW The HAPPIEST
Man In America
preston News service)

NEW YORK CITY, Oct. 13-In the
present situation of affairs in pugilism
the one thing to happen recently to
make Jack Dempsey happy was the
victory of Battling Sikh over Georges
Carpenter in Paris few nights ago.
Dempsey had about run to the end of
his string of excuses for not meeting
Harry Wills in a title bout Skis
victory has given Dempsey new line
of defense to keep out of the ring
with Wills for some time at least. Ex-
citement among fight promoters is at
fever heat here now, and Sikh is the
most talked of man in the world to-
day
According to latest dispatches from
Paris Sikh has accepted Tex Richards
terms to fight somebody in New York
City on November 30th. Last Friday
night Rickard announced that he had
definately concluded arrangements to
import Battling Sikh, the Senegalese,
here for bout with somebody on
Thanksgiving Day. Followers of the
rugid game of fisticuffs are speculat.
ing as to whom Sikh will meet.
All that can be gotten from Rickard
is that he does not know just who will
be Skis opponent, but that he can
assure all that it will not be "setup."
He said, There are three or four high
class men in the light heavyweight
group in this country, and will select
one of these men after the foreigner
arrives"

PHOENIX TRIBUNE


Some are inclined to think that his
first opponent will be Henry Greb of
Pittsburgh, others contend that he
should meet Gibbons, or Miske, and
still others contend that Sikh should
meet Kid Norfolk first In fact, Nor
folk has deposited forfeit of $4,000
binding challenge to Sikh, and will
be entitled to first consideration as an
opponent of Sikh on Thanksgiving
night The challenge is for the light
heavyweight championship now held
by Sikh.
The New York Boxing Commission
issued a statement last Friday night
to the effect that if it verifies the re-
ports that Sikh is coming to the Unit
ed States under contract for very
large sums, neither he nor the men to
whom he is under contract will be
permitted to operate in this state.
The commissions statement foil
lows:
There was filed at the office of the
state athletic commission today a
challenge, issued by Kid Norfolk and
supported by a forfeit of $2,500 for
the light heavyweight championship
held by Battling Sikh. This means
that If Sikh comes to this country, it.
will be in line for him to dispose Of
this challenge; first either to accept
or decline, and if it is true that he is
coming here under contract for the
very large sums that have been men
toned in the newspapers recently,
neither he nor the men to whom he
is under contract will be permitted to
operate in this state. One of the
rules in this commission stipulates
that all boxers in main bouts must
work on a percentage basis
1t is reported that Sikh has been Of
fered $4,000 to fight Johnny Wilson,
middle weight champion in Braves
Field in Boston, on October 26.
Jack Johnson, former heavyweight
champion, is reported to have sent a
challenge to Sikh Jack was hailed in
to court in New York last Thursday
on account of debt he owed Barney
Gerard, a theatrical producer for sew
en- years, the amount being $500.
Johnson was asked to pay $1,000 on
account of Gerrard's counsel and John
son replied
'You fellows ought to wait until
tackle that man Sikh. He looks just
like the man want to fight, and when
get through I'll have money enough
to pay you" Johnson then an
nounced that he was sending chal-
lenge to Sikh.

ture that charmed Columbia aud
ehces all las: week and which has

Her Gilded Cage" is notable for
not only the palpitant and vivid
quality of its romantic drama but
for the beauty of its costumes, the
splendor of Its backgrounds and
for the unusual opportunity it af-
fords Miss Swanson to display
emotional powers of no conven-

Based on the story by Anne
Nichols. the playwright. Her Gild-
ed Cage" was scenarized by Percy

"The Man With Two Msther.-

Cullen Lands and Buster Keaton
contested for popular favor yester-
day at Crandalfs Theater, the
former in The Man With Two
Mothers" and the latter in The
Blacksmith" with honors about
even.
The Man With Two Mothers" is
a comedy of a young Irishman who
comes to this country as an adopt
ed son. bringing his old mother
with him. This starts a series of
complications that is said to prove
that there is really something new
under the sun in screen stories.
Mary Alden, whose work in THE
Old Nest' has made her niche in
screen fame sure, is seen as the
real mother and contributes an
other splendid piece of acting. Gull
len Lands Is seen as the man who
has two mothers and 1t gives him
bigger opportunity than he has
yet had on the screen. Sylvia
Dreamer. as Cullen's sweetheart, Is
as charming and lovely as ever. 1t
is a comedy that will amuse by its
freshness and its Irish gaiety and
humor.
Buster Keaton has never been
more entertaining than in The
Blacksmith" The comedy begins
with travestied questions from
Longfellow's poem and ends in
riot of mirth. There is nothing
that this young comedian does not
tackle. from mending his watch at
the forge to equipping horse
with fancy sport shoes and an
other with shock absorbers.
Abbreviated camera subjects and
melodious organ accompaniment
