ing affair.
Ffrpo ought to win. not because
age eventually falls for youth, but
for n flock of reasons.
Brennan is not in shape and he has

farpo is going some place with n

not any place to go even If he beats
Firpo.
Brennan has nothing to lose II
Firpo wins, IL Brennan wins, the
comment would be. he should have
won; Firpo is a green rookie.
AS Brennan loses they will say he
should have lost; he's been there a
long while.
Firpo's rise to n position where he
is being considered for a crack al
the heavy weight championship Is
the cleverest piece of romance de
veloped since Georges Carpenter was
steamed into Jersey City.
One year 6 Firpo came here in
the steerage of a South American
liner. He knocked four opponents in
the dollar a dozen class. He returned
home and imported Jim Tracey who
won the long distance record for O
knockout by travelling from New
York to Buenos Aires to kiss the
rosin.
Firpo then returned and wal
matched with the toughest heavy
weight outside of the champions
room. BIZ Brennan has been knocked
out only twice and both times by
Jack Dempsey. the champion.

Benton was suspended last year as
a result of charges OF attempted

The charges were not substantiated.
The att tude Of Heydler indicates that
a showdown is due in the baseball
