NO BLAME FOR DEATH
Everyone Connected With Bout in
Which Thomas Died Are Cleared.

New York, Feb. 7.-Absolutfon from
criminal responsibility was given late
Tuesday by District Attorney Dodd of
Brooklyn to all those connected with
the death Of Antonio PerraianO, New
York pugilist known as Andy Thomas,
who died Tuesday morning from a
hemorrhage Of the brain suffered dur
ing his bout with johnny Clinton in
Brooklyn Monday night.
After examining all the surviving
participants and several witnesses, Dis
trict Attorney Dodd said the death was
an unfortunate accident and that there
were no grounds for making arrests.
He ordered the investigation closed.
Medical Examiner Vaughan, who per-
formed an autopsy previously, had de-
clared that the hemorrhage was induced
by blows received during the fight.
DR.. James e. Thompson, official ply
stefan of the state boxing commission.
testified that he examined both men be-
fore they entered the ring and found
their conditions satisfactory. Witnesses
told the district attorney that the bout
was not brutal, that here had been no
knockdOwns and that when Thomas COL
lapsed at the beginning of the twelfth
round the bout seemed even.

Chicago, Feb. Mass golf lessons

While thousands of golfers flocked to
the tournaments TO watch the experts
play, even after admission was charged,
the fleeing glimpses of the rapidly
made strokes did not satisfy, and mass
instruction was demanded.
Gene Sarazen of New York, national
open champion, was one of the first to
teach big audiences. These classes set
the golfins fraternity on fire, and
throughout the West. Sarazen and Jock
Hutchison of Chicago have been giving
lessons to the multitudes. Even in the
indoor schools of northern cities, bevies
of golfers take inspiration from watch

GOLF TOURNAMENTS IN
SOUTH GIVE WARNING
OF DEVELOPING STARS
II Any New Ones Working
to Front, They'll Show
Ii in South.
BY LAWRENCE PERRY

Copyright, 1898, by The San Antonio LIGHT
New York, Feb. 7.-Play in the
southern open Journeys this month and
next will give us early intimation as TO
prospects among the professional golf
ers. BY the time the North and South
open championship is decided at Pine
hurst, March 20, 30. We will know de-
uniteiy whether some star swinging
across the golf armament as suddenly
and brilliantly as did Gene Sarazen, is
likely to cause the Briar Cliff wonder
and Walter Hagen, Hutchinson and
Barnes to look to their laurels when
the supreme test comes at Inwood next
July.
Attention today is particularly cen.
tered upon Bill Mehlhorn, of Shreveport
who gave Walter Hagen such a battle =
week or two ago at San Antonio. and
on johnny Farrell, the Quaker Ridge
pro" who has been due for a sensa-
tional splash for at least a year.
In the amateur ranks there seems to
be every expectation that our present
top hole galaxy is likely to see an in.
crease numerically but, since golf is
purely a diversion with our gentlemen
players, we shall be well upon summer
before any definite impression is estab
lished concerning stars such as Rudy
Knepper. Harrison Johnston, Pollnck
Boyd and other members Of thu younger
set who are believed TO be on the verge
Of greatness.

HORSESHOE STAR AT Is
Akron Boy Has Trimmed Leading
"Barnyard Golfers

st. Petersburg, Fla, Feb. Amer
ica's youngest horseshoe pitcher, Harold
Falor, the 15-year-old boy wizard of
Akron, Ohio, is a recent entry in the
fifth annual midwinter "barnyard golf"
tournament TO be held here during the
week of February 10.
The boy marvel finished high in the
midsummer meet, held in Des MoineS
last August, topping several stars of ma
tional prominence, including G. G.
Davis, who won leading honors here
last February.
Young Falor is after the national title
this winter and hopes to wrest the
championship crown now being worn by
Frank Lundin of New London, Iowa.
The boy is working out daily at Or.
lando, Fla, where his father has opened
training camp for the knickerbockered
athlete.
In a recent exhibition match, Falor
trounced Davis, the former champion
80 to AZ, both totaling 90 ringers in
the nip-and-tuck exhibition.
Falor has a lazy revolving shoe that
opens perfectly at the iron upright,
sliding on n ringer. He wears a can
cas- glove on his pitching hand and this
cuts the turn of his horseshoe down to
one-and-Quarter revolution.

BIG LEAGUE UMPIRES
HARD TO SECURE AS
STAR BALL PLAYERS
League Presidents Engaged
in Annual Task of COL
lecting Staff.
By JOHN b. FOSTER.

Copyright, 1923. by The San Antonio Light
New York, Feb. while the man.
ayers of the major clubs and the
minors too, for that matter, are busy
trying to sign players to win champion
ships, or at least to give the 'turnstiles
an excuse for being oiled. the presi-
dents of the leagues are trying to sign
umpires who will last through the
season without having their lives threat
ened more than fifty times.
President Heydler of the National
League YEARLY turned his pen upside
down, in an distracted manner and
remarked that collecting championship
umpires seemed to him to be no less
than collecting championship players.
Emslie, of course, has been given re-
lief from active duty this year, but
Heydler says he may be called on in
emergency after all.
Possibly Frank Wilson will get
chance in the National League this
coming season. He tried it in the
American but did not make much head.
way. Umpires, however, frequently
change from one circuit to another and
make a success in the second league
after they have been an actual frost
in the first.
President johnson of the American
League will lose Chill, Walsh and
Guthrie from his staff. Chill got into
a jam in Cleveland that did not add
to his hope Of sticking with the majors.
Walsh retired because one year was
enough for him. While he was the
greatest spitball pitcher in history he
had no conception Of the life led by
the umpire. Now he. says he would
prefer to be the worst spitballer to
the best umpire.
In place of three men who are Ieay-
ing the American, Clarence Rowland.

and Emmett 0rmsby will be tried. John.

Copyright. 1928. by The San Antonio Light.
New York, Feb. 7.-Don't be sur
prised if you hear that Jack Dempsey
has decided to go to Europe. A state
ment to this effect may come any time
following negotiations that are today in
progress. Announcement may be held
up pending Dempsey's return from the
West. Jack Kearns can see some
money on the other side and when
Jack sees money be keeps his eyes fixed
upon the same.
A scheme as outlined by Major
Cochran, the British promoter, contem-
plates the champions appearance in a
series of exhibition bouts which will
lead up to two fights, one of which will
be with Joe Beckett.
Another project Kearns is consider.
ing is a movie offer, but there is talk
that Jacks loss of popularity through
out the country due to general disgust
over the size of his demands has cooled
the ardor of the movie people.
1t will be recalled that just after the
armistice Dempsey appeared in a film
drama called Daredevil Jack" The
onl. trouble was that the public, in view
of Jacks war record, laughed itself sick
at the mere title without going near
the movie houses.
Just now there are too many chances
that in a new play the leading man,
Dempsey, might be asked to pose as a
hero who cared more for love than for
money or who would rather be right
than be Rockefeller or something of
the sort. In this event, apoplexy due
10 inordinate mirth might sweep this
tLn ,aacftlnnra
From a lot Of angles this movie stuff
doesn't listen too good. OF course, If
in the end it sizes up as the most pro-
ductive thing Dempsey can do, then be
will do it, but it probably won't size up
The European proposition is really n
good one. There is a lot of interest in
the champion over there since his visit
and any arena that could be built would
be filled at fair prices by fans who
would be willing to pay well for the
privilege of seeing Bombardier Wells
knocked out by Dempsey.
You know there is a gate receipt pull
in the prospect of champion applying
the fade-away to rival fighter. This
was the pull in the Dempsey-Brennan
battle two years ago. Not a man in
the vast crowd that filled the Madison
Square Garden that night came with
any idea of seeing a real fight. They
had paid their money purely and simply
to see Jack eat Bill Brennan alive.
Every comment heard before the fight
ran like this:
"Now keep your eye on Jack. He
lets the knockout come so quick you
can't see it unless you pay attention"
All that sort of stuff.
Round after round went on until the
twelfth when Jack put over his fare
well wallop. Was the crowd satisfied
to have had twelve rounds of battling
instead of a quick knockout? Not at
all. They hooted Dempsey as be left
the ring and called him every name I'M
der the sun. There is more than one
angle to this business of promoting prize
fights.

KIPKE, ATHLETIC STAR
AT MICHIGAN, BECOMES
"SUB" AT BASKET BALL
Brilliant Little Fellow Named
Haggerty Beats Star
Out of Job.

Ann Arbor, Mich, Feb. 7.--B,w Fcad
must a player be to su":,.:at Harry
Kipke, University of Michigan star, and
All-America gridier, on the basket ball
floor? Nr~Goubt all those who have
seen thu Lansing youth in action will

That's just how brilliant a basketeer
is George Haggerty scintillating forward
on this years Maize and Blue quintet.
For George has beaten Kipke out Of a
regular berth-despite the fact that
Harry was one Of the shining lights OIL
the 1922 team which made such a sensa-
tional finish in the Big Ten race.
In Haggerty, Michigan figures it pos
seSSes one of the finds" of the season.
And the diminutiye tosser is just that,
for though performing for the Wolyer.
ines for the first time this year he has
been largely responsible for the success
the Mather aggregation has enjoyed on
the courts.
Haggerty, though slight of build and
small in stature, being one of the small
est men in Western Conference circles,
is veritable sensation at the indoor
pastime. He is fast, an accurate pass
er, n clever dribbler, and. above all, is
the greatest shot the Michiga rdcrs have
bad in some seasons. In fact, George
is an uncanny basket shooter. dropping
them in at all angles with surprising
regularity.
Any many there are who consider
Hagerty a much greater player than
Bill Miller, who cavorts at the other
forward post, and who last season was
picked as one Of the best all-rouDd men
in the conference.
Haggerty also stars on the BASEBALL
diamond where he plays either at short
or third base, and should make q valu-
able player for Coach Ray Fisher. Hag.
