But then, just when Firpo had the
championship and fortune almost
within his grasp, the champions gen.
eralship, his instructive defense, saw
ed him. He gripped Firpo's arms,
blocked the challenger's rush. and.
before either could start another as
sault, the bell ended the round.
Master of the situation once more,
Dempsey made short work Of his
battered opponent in the second
round, flooring him twice before a
short right uppercut to the jaw-it
did not travel over a foot-brought
his foe down for the eighth, and last,
time.
The champions greater speed, the
versatility and unerring accuracy of
his attack and strategy, plus his ter
rife punch, had brought him victory.
Firpo Put Up Great Fight.
Firpo, beaten for the first time
since his meteoric rise to prominence,
fought the greatest fight of his career.
His right was never mightier; he
proved beyond the shadow of a doubt
his gameness under the hottest of
fire. But when his great opportunity
came he was out maneuvered and out
generated.
Dempsey was tho quicker on attack
with two-fisted assault where Firpo
had but one big gun. The champion
was constantly beating his challenger
to the punch. Thus ii was that Luis
was stretched on the floor five times
before he suddenly turned the tables
on the titleholder. Firpo was the
first to land, his right thudding
against the champions side. Several
times later in the round the Argen-
tine brought home his right with all
it's power to Dempsey's ribs, but where
they had broken down all opposition

Frowned on by
Golf Heads

The United States Golf Asso-

the prosopsed international put
ting tournament planned by
j. G. B. Lester, a hotel man in
Chicago during the national
amateur championship in Sep
TENDER. Lester is an English
man, a personal friend of Ber-
nard Darwin, and through the
latter he has invited all the
British players who compete at
Flossmoor to be his guests.
He is having an eighteen-hole
course constructed under the
supervision of William Jackson
near his hotel. Lester still has
hopes of arranging a turnament
of some kind which will not con-
flict with the ideas of the ma

One OF the Objectionable features
In connection with the usual cham
pionship play in the majority of
tournaments is that the star in the
qualifying round or rounds may be
Off his game, fails to make the first
or second sixteens and then falls
back among those who have little or
no chance Of making him extend
himself, much less defeating him.
An illustration of this occurred In
the Chevy Chase invitation. Dwight
Partridge, along with several others.
tied for the sixteenth position IN
the first sixteen. In the draw which
followed Partridge was the unlucky
one and he dropped back into the
second sixteen. The way he waded
through that second flight was al.
most ridiculous.
AT the time Of the Chevy Chase
event Partridge was shooting at
the top OF his game, a week before
ne having taken the measure Of
Chris Duhphy, the District title
holder. In the Indian Springs first

Placing Partridge in the second
flight was akin to folly. OF the

There will be no dropping back In

sharpshooter. It is going to be q
case of making the grade in your
own class or you are going to be out
of luck--not only out of luck, but
out Of the event as well.
In other words, The Times is
going to run three separate cham
pionships for the men--classes A.,
e and c. There will be two classes
for the women-A md B. In each
class there will be two divisions,
/ and 2. Glass A golfers will shoot
their qualifying rounds to see in
which division they are to shoot the
championships rounds. And so it
will be with classes B and C..
II you are q class b golfer you
will play against only those who
are in your same class. There

you. Neither will you have an
OpDOrtunity Of dropping back into
class c if you fail to mako the
qualifying round in class b.
The Times tournament committee
has a pretty good line on the
cracks who can break AZ or better.
What The Times wants Is those
lesser lights who have hard time
getting around In less than 80 to
become interested In the event. If
YOU shoot anywhere from SO to 60
YOU will have the same opportunity
to win q prize az the class A stars.
In other words, each class will

But the fans won't come back in
such numbers unless the race tight
ems and maybe not then. The bored
feeling just grew on 'em and 1t
will take just as long for it to
wear off.
Dunn's refusal to sell at various
times has given some of the Orioles
a false reputation. They're not all
as good as they're advertised.
George Rossiter, owner Of the
Black SOx, has Il on j. Dunn.
Certainly Rossiter is paying no
ways the salary that Dunn is
paying out. He hasn't as big or
expensive a ball park to maintain.
But his Sunday attendance is
nearly twice that of Dunn's.
"I can't pay out these salaries
with this kind Of attendance" said
Dunn. IT must at least have good
Saturday and Sunday crowds, and
I'm not getting them now"
Without columns and columns OF
free advertising the Black Sox are
outdrawing the Orioles. And when
5000 fans go to a Black Sox game

team But where does Jersey
City get off?
Trouble in the past has not been
so much that Dunn had q super
team, but that the others had very
poor teams. Jersey City has been
making a game fight with fair
pitchers and catchers and little
else. Joe Cobb is versatile. He
could catch or play the outfield
for Jersey. But when Jack Dunn
pulled a roll Of greeEbacks from
his sock and waved Il in front OF
the Shelters they let Cobb go.
If Egan knows where he can
take the few thousands he got,
and turn it into few good ball
players, he knows more than some
other managers around the league.
