Right now Texs Judgment has been
confirmed in one respect-in respect
to WIZARDS drawing power. The big
fellow is a sell-out wherever he ap-
pears on the road, according to re
ports. 1t is said that in one city he
cleaned UP more than $4,000. No one
can get by the significance of all
this. 1t means that The Pottawatomie
puncher has got big hold on tho
imagination Of the public.
Just how he got it is a mystery.
He didn't have it when he was cham
pion. In fact, there never was a
heavyweight titleholder who had less
Of a pull with the fans than Jesg.
But now, beaten for the title and out
of the game for several years, he
comes back and finds himself a stand
ing-room-on.y attraction. Amt it
funny?
Gene Tunney and Harry Greb, ac-
cording to a private understanding
reached today, will fight in the open
air next spring. ring to be pitched In
the new Yankee stadium. This will
be a. real attraction, for no one is
yet really satisfied as to the relative
ability of the two men.
Bill Brennan says he will start
training for Luis Firpo in few days.
1t VIII be interesting to see just what
sort of training he. does; for the
whispers are that Bill is due to take
it on the shoulder when he faces
Firpo. Important if true.

ROCHESTER CLUB MAYFLOWER WILL BEGINS ITS WORK LOSE SAIL SPAN ON SELMA FIELD FOR MOTOR POWER

GLOUCESTER, Mass, March 5.- the American fisheries under sail. having found no vessel to match speed with her in two years of in- ternational fishermen's racing, will be cut down and be equipped with motor. Sporting considerations have been set aside by the Boston syndicate that owns her. and it has written off a loss of S14,000 incur red in the effort to have the May flower recognized as a fisherman eli gible to compete for the Halifax Herald hampionship cup.
 The speed built into the schooner from the design of Starling Burgess, which caused her to be declared more nearly yacht than fisherman. will never be tested as planned. although she may be raced in her revised form, with the engine sealed.
 The decision of the Mayflower As- sociates, Inc, which owns the fisher man, to have her converted into an auxiliary vessel, became known to- day when schooner was lowed here under bare poles to have a 100-horse power engine installed, and to have her lofty masts and slender spars cut down to take a reduced sail area.
 Under her new conditions, the May flower. her owners expect, will stock enough fish, and be able to run to market and back in all wealth CT fast enough to make her high liner on the Boston-Gloucester fleets
 The Mayflower may still race under sail, although she will never be ex- actly as planned after the motor is installed.
