Don't Kill Hint"
COMFORTING EDITOR,
1.-THE Washington Times


<kOPoRTING EDITOR,
1.-THE Washington Times.
"Dear Sir:
81 saw Dempsey beat Willard in
the first round at Toledo, and / say
to this proposed second contest,
Don't let Dempsey kill him!' /
honestly think Wizards life would
be in danger if he took another
chance with Dempsey.
willard was approaching forty
when he lost his championship. He
must be more than forty now.
Dempsey is, think, around twenty
seven or twenty-eight, in the prime
of his manhood. Willard is on the
down grade. Dempsey has not yet
begun to slip. .
Trying to get into shape would
about sap all Wizards strength,
and the first punch Dempsey landed
against his stomach might dis
arrange his vitals. If such a re-
suit happened-well, Mr.. Sporting
Editor, you know as we'll as / do
what would happen to the boxing
game.
81 think that Dempsey and his
manager, Kearns, must be crazy
after money when they think Of
Willard as a rival. Willard was
never a real champion in the first
place and he is farther away now
than he ever was from being one.
This Floyd Johnson, unless his
manager doesn't know his bust
ness, may be the next one, not
this year nor for two or three,
but he looks like the next one to
me, anyway.
"Yours, ETC.,

"Mr. Louis A. Dougher,
Sporting Editor.
Dear Sir:
"The baseball season is almost
here, and yet the Washington
papers are printing little or nothing
about the Washington team that
DOME Bush will have when the
campaign begins. l have been very
much interested in your baseball
articles, especially that last one
about Hargrave, Brogan, Blue and
COnroy, but you don't tell me what
/ want to know, which is, will Bush
have a real team when the season
begins. All the fans are waiting to
see what kind of team he will
have before making up their minds
about the coming season, but the
Washington baseball writers are
keeping all the news to themselves,
if they know anything, and we have
to wait for them to open up. AS a
daily reader of The Times, and your
column especially, / wish to ask
you to give us fans your opinion of
Bush's chance to make good.
Thanking you in advance, am,
yours truly,

of a team Bush will have before

chances of success. President Grit

keepin~ it to himself, doing it out
in small portions from time to
time. However, whenever we can
find out anything We believe the
fans would like to read, we promise
to scatter it far and wide for their
benefit.

have stood up before both OF them.
When Dempsey was training for
the fight with Billy Miske at Ben

trained with him both here in New

three or four rounds daily
Il guess we had about twelve

''As between Gibbons and Demp-

the more formidable of the two.
This opinion is based strictly on
my experiences with them in the
training and in the ring. Dempsey
is a great fighter, I'll grant you,
but he is not the invincible warrior
that he has been pictured. He can
lick any big, slow fighter in the
world, but I doubt very much
whether he would be so sensation
