COSTLY BOXING CUTS

NEW YORK, Sept. With the
exception of boxing. sport encount-
cred a noticeable midsummer slump
if attendance figures are an indica-
tion of general interest.
Interest perhaps is regulated by
the public pocketbook, and boxing
around New York has taken so
much money this summer. 1t may
be that there is the same old inter
est in the other sports, but no cash
to indulge in them.
Perhaps it Is not general all over
the country, but New York certain
" Is not turning out for baseball,
track and tennis as it did last year
and there must be 4 reason.
Presidents of the National and
American Leagues reported that
business was better than ever in the
first half Of the season, but since
then the attendance at the New
York parks has decreased notice
ably.

find good seat. =,
The Giants, on their last west
ern trip, made a new record for
drawing customers, but conSitering
that the champions are regarded
as one of the greatest of all ball
clubs and that the opportunities to
see them are limited out of New
York, this is not unusual.
When they fail to draw at home
and when the great Babe Ruth, GO
ing as he never went before, does
not crowd that Yauk park. it is
highly unusual.
Some blame the runaway races,
but front New York S attitude to
accept nothing but 4 winner in the
past, it should be expected that
the two champion New York teams
should be doing 4 terrific business.
The radio cannot be blamed, as
the club owners have seen to it
particularly that no broad-casting
concerns are allowed near enough to
a ball park to give a play-byplay
description of the games.
Baseball men biame the boxing
craze and the use of ball parks for
fighting as one of the most re-
sponsible causes for the. slump in
interest. 1t is quite possible that

WILSON LOSES
CHAMPION
TO HARRY GREB
Pittsburgher Wins 13 of
Is Rounds of Rotten"
Ring Battle
Bv HENRY T.. FARRELL

NEW YORK, ~rept. Johnny
Wilson lived for almost three years
rs the middlcwcight champion OF
the world by the exercise of great
caution and last night he passed
out tho same way.
Wilson never took chance as
champion and he was so careful
in the first real defense of his title
that he lost q fifteen round decision
and his crown to Harry Greb, the
Pittsburgh fighter.
The italian apparently figured
before the fight started that he
had reached the end of his sad
reign and he fought as a loser.
Rotten Fight
Ten thousand fans checrcd as
fair, the verdict, and was just as
unanimous in voting it "rotten'
fight.
Wilson was given the edge in
only two Of the fifteen rounds, the
first and the thirteenth. Had he
shown little aggressiveness and
had he been smart enough to see
the effects of the body punches
that he landed through the whole
fight on his opponent, Wilson might
have retained the title. Greb was
so tired from the ninth round on
that he could hardly keep his
hands up, but Wilson did Just what
Greb wanted, clinched and held.
Ii was slow, minteresting fight
| Greb, weakened no doubt by MAX
ing 100 pounds, failed to put forth
the stunts that have made him al
most invincible among heavier OPP
ponents. He fought enough to win
by the widest margin but he dis
appointed the crowd.
Wilson Sad Sight
Wilson was sad looking figure
at the end of the fight. His
"beak = was swollen to twice its
normal size and was crimson
blotch. His cheeks were puffed
and his eyes almost closed.
Greb S reign as the champion
promises to be no more successful
than that of his predecessor. The
wonder arises what will Grcb do
with the championship now that he
has it. Grcb cannot fight often at
100 pounds. He viii kill himself
if he is forced to make weight
many times.
Official figures published This
morning showed that only 6,51t

Williams Seeks
Fight Opponent
For Mexicali Go

Negotiations are now in progress
for a fight September II, between
Kid Williams, valley light heavy
weight champion, and prominent
heavyweight, the bout to be held in
Mexicali, according to Harry Wood
bury, Williams manager.
Several opponents have been sug-
gested for Williams, among them
Sam Langford, the colored heavy,
weight, Jackie Saunders, who has
been knocking over some good men
in the middle west, Louis Alvarado.
crack Pacific coast battler, and
Kenneth Clark, who is looked upon
"a a conner in heavyweight circles.
Which of the quartette will face
Williams the same day that Jack
Dempsey is trying to polish off Luis
Firpo, is as vet undecided, but AL
varado is looked upon with con
siderable favor by those in Will
liams' camp.
Langford is not likely TO be
chosen at this time. For one thing,
he is far too experienced for Will
liams out of condition, as the local
far greater crowd than can be
Accommodated in any of the present
fight shops IN Mexicali. Saunders
would require a heavy guarantee
to come from the middle west,
probably a prohibitive one. Alya-
rado is nearby and a bout with him
would draw well, and also be a
minimum expense for the prom
oters. Clark would be available for
a later fight.
Whoever his opponent is on the
18th, he is not going to find Will
liams out of conditions, as the local
boy is training each night at the
Central Billiard parlors and is keep
ing in good shape. His recent vic
tories over Ray Neal and Young
Hippo have given him world of
confidence in his ability, and his
friends predict that fight fans will
see a wonderfully improved scrap
per on his next appearance in the
ring.

matches for the cup.
The defeat of William NJ. Johns

by Anderson was such a surprise
that it was almost q shock to the
six thousand spectators. Johnston
obviously was off form, but the
brilliant game shown by the Aus

of his game.
1T was the 18th start made by
Johnston in Davis cup competition
and the first match he had ever lost
in the play for the trophy.
The score was 4-6, 60, 2-6, -,
