PAMPAS BULL IS
TRYING HARD To
OVERCOME FAULTS
Experts Fear He'll Forget
Under Fire, but Agree
He's O. K, Now,
By HENRY FARRELL
United Press Staff Correspondent

ATLANTIC CITY, n. J., Aug. 81
It is apparent from Luis Angel Fir
POS training work here that he has
more Of a left hand than he has per-
mitted the public to believe.
It was weakness on his port side in
all his previous fights that caused
the experts to predict he would not
go far with the two-handed Dempsey
when they meet for the heavyweight
championship in New York Sept. IA
Jabs and Hooks
F4rpo is showing a nice left in his
sparring and he has acquired a hook
TO supplement the conventional jab.
In training for Willard he showed the
same thing. but when he started to
fight the former champion he appar-
emily forgot he had anything hanging
10 his left shoulder. Perhaps he knew
ne could win with his right and chose
to camouf1age his other side.
The South American does very little
clubbing in his work now and he
flashes a very good right uppercut- It
was a blow Of this type, landed by
Jess, Willard in his last stand at To-
ledo, that nearly finished Dempsey.
Here's the Discount
Experts watching Firpo here dis
count his form. saying he will forget
all his style when he IS hurt and will
revert back TO his natural rough and
unpublished method of warfare.
Beyond doubt Firpo is in perfect
condition and in every respect he is a
better man than the Willard from
whom Dempsey won the title. His
wind is sound. he is fast on his feet
for a big man and his morale is per
feet
Despite the fact that he has placed
himself in the hands of trainers
whose only knowledge of boxing has
been acquired through motion pic
lures, F1rpo is being brought along
fine. He weighs PA pounds now and
Gays he will fight at 210 or 212 pounds.
He shows no symptoms Of being or
getting stale.

BIZ United Press


NEW YORK. Aug. 31.-Ceremonies
attending the coronation of a new
worlds champion are expected to be
staged at the Polo Grounds tonight
when Johnny Wilson, the middle
weight champion, meets Harry Greb,
Philadelphia challenger.
Greb is almost a to l favorite and
he has been picked by practically all
tie experts to remove the crown from
the Italian.
A large aggregation of straw hats
Will be seen at the Polo Grounds
when Wilson and the furnished
middleweight title go on exhibition.
Wilson, whatever his shortcomings
as a boxer and battler. and they be
nanifold. is a sedulous trainer and
he has made himself as fine as ever
he will be.
Greb began as though he had until
Christmas to prepare for the fight,
but in the last ten days has come into
good form.
AS Greb couldn't crack a glass bat
on a cannonball. no knockout is an
ticipated. The general notion around
New York Is that he will out-romp
Wilson.

that It gives ones friends the
