NEW YORK, August 2I.--The good ship American Legion of the Munson line. just in from Buenos Aires and loaded to the matches with tamaIes raw axe handles and other farm produce from the alluvial fields along the Rio Tomato, was canted sharply to port as she snuggled up to her dock here Tuesday.
 Then Luis Angelo Firpo hove him. self up to the front steps with Lis som grace and cast himself upon the bosoms of his friends. The Ameri- can Legion had brought to the United States the entire delegation from the Argentine and Uruguay to see Luls Angelo do or be done, in his rather hurried attempt to fetch the heavy weight championship of the world, which Is set for September 14 at the Polo Grounds, New York. Luis An gelo also had news to impart to the throng of three South Americans who spUttered and flUttered about him on the American Legion's front porch, feeling of his mighty arms, jabbing him with prospecting fingers in the fairway of his shirt front, and exc cutting a strange South American can-can in the glad excitement of meeting him in his land of promise.

Luis Angelo ex- plained that he had this day signed a piece of writing for Tex Riekard whereby 1t is agreed that he (Firpo) fight Harry Wills, the New Orleans negro heavyweight fighter, in Bue- nos Aires next April regardless of whether Jack Dempsey knocks his (Firpo's) front teeth into his thoraR or he knocks Dempsey for a row of bank holidays on September 14,
 Later in the day Senior Rickard, as Firpo calls him, pressed the button in his office in the tower of Madison Square Garden, and the squad of fleet-footed press agents burst from their pens in the basement to rush over town with wild cries, officially confirming the statements of Luis Angelo.
 Richards own personal consul in Buenos Aires has made a thorough survey of the cauliflower market there, it was announced, and has in- formed Rickard that Firpo and Wills would be sure to draw gross receipts
