Argentine Fighter Too Slow of Hand and Foot to
 Get by Is Verdict.

NEW YORK March 24.-Shrewd judges of fighting form, men whose interest in the game is measured by bets running into tens of thousands, have practically made up their minds about Luis Firpo. The visit of Bill Brennan to the hospital to have the supposedly terrible injuries Frpo inflicted has been taken into full account for whatever it may be worth by these shrewd judge
 An inquiry among places where these hard-eyed. practical men gath cred elieited this fact. A crucial point is that none of them is particu. larfy entesested in whether Bill Bren. mans noodle was treated with un- usual roughness or whether Bill did tank. or for that matter whether he was really knocked out at ali.
 What does concern them is the re- suit of their close scrutiny of Firpo in his preliminary workouts as well as in his battle with Brennan. They admit first of all that he can hit. But as anyone of them will tell you, they can go out along the waterfront and dig up longshoremen who can hit frightful wallop, too.
 The point about Firpo is that he is terribly slow of hands and slow of foot Now. quick hitter is inva- riably a quick thinker. Firpo gives no impression of using his intellect at any rate of speed.
 FIrpo would completely fill the bill of a gladiator, a modern "Aby- smal brute" But Abysmal brutes are never champions any more. The head counts nightly.
 Firpo-a good secondrater. That is the inside up and down on the Ar gentinian. He is going to meet Demp- sey, of course. And when he does. the layers of odds will make 1t very | for Firpo's packers.
