Tunney. Battling Sikh beat Carpen-
tier for the world lght-heavy title
The veteran Jack Britton handed
over the weller honors to Mickey
Walker.
Although 1923 is only three
months on the way, three champions
have already been dethroned.
Gene Tunney in return match
defeated Greb, while frankie Genaro
took down the decision over Villa.
Battling Sikh was knocked back ia
nowhere when he lost q close decl-
sion to Mike McTighue.
In justice to Greb and Villa. It
must be said that the decisions that
deprived them Of their titles failed
to meet with popular favor, anG

as to the methods of conducting the
game in New York.

New York, May l.-If looks mean

Went out to Yonkers the other
day and looked the big fellow over.
Jesse has gotten as far away as
possible from the bright lights while
putting on the finishing touches for
the bout that will determine his
chance of getting another crack ut
Champion Dempsey.
About three months ago ! watched
Willard go through his training
stunts at Madison Square Garden.
Willard had been brought on to New
York to work up another fight with
Dempsey.
The idea didn't go very we'll. In
addition the belief that Willard was
past 40 caused him to be automati-
cally barred from boxing in New
York as laid down in the rules of
the boxing comm issiOn.
Some new angle was necessary.
Every year some big ring affair is
staged for a pet New York charity,
the Milk Fund. willard agreed to
box for a very reasonable figure
against anyone selected.
That willingness caused the rules
of the commission to be temporarily
suspended as to the age limit. Will
lard wanted a chance to show his
wares, agreeing to box for the Milk
Fund gave him the opportunity.
Now he hopes to make the most of
it, and by his showing win the right
to another bout with Dempsey.
When watched Willard box at
Madison Square Garden three months
ago he looked in fair condition, far
better than l had expected Of a man
who had been out of training as long
as he had.
At that time ne said his weight
was 265 pounds. He looked 10 be
about 25 pounds heavier than that
to me. All of sudden Willard
kissed New York goodby and de-
parted for Excelsior Springs, Mo.
Eight weeks at Excelsior Springs

With that in mind Cobb is hopeful
of turning several stunts this sum-

1t is questionable if Cobb will play
regularly over three years more. He
admits that old Father Time is be-
ginning to get in his work, that the
legs are not as supple rs they once
were, although the eyes seem as

Here are a few things that. Cobb

It's different with the modern day

None Of the present-day champions

perfectly and they seemed able To

dozen fast balls in the two series
with the Giants. The right handlers
worked on the outside, mixing in a
slow ball with an occasional curve.
The left handlers broke the ball low
and on the outside, mixing in a
change of pace.
"Thcre was no fast ball pitching
to Ruth in either series and ne
didn't hit.
"My pitchers have been told how
to pitch to Ruth, now it is up to
them. One thing ! have laid stress

chance and pitched just such ball
to Ruth, home run resulting.

also break a tie with Wagner. Each

their campaigns on the diamond.
If Cobb should pass the 400 mark
it will also break two other ties.
Cobb and Jesse Burkett have each
had three seasons in which they bet

Cobb has twice bettered the 400
