COTTON PLANT. Miss. Jan. 22.-A driving sleet and rainstorm which at times sent flurries of wet snow scat tering before the wind prevented the opening of the National Fox Hound club grand championship trials here today. The hounds that had been entered in the event were warmly kenneled and the owners gathered in groups about the many fireplaces in the hunting lodge on Tippah farm, Paul J. Raineys plantation.
 The rain of Sunday continued through the night and daylight saw steady declining thermometer. The trials were called off and the hun ters spent the day in exchanging ex periences. Col. R. C. Mayo, one of the Tennessee mayors, and a fox hum ter for the past 50 years, was the leading light in these "reminiscences. From his memory he conjured tales of ancient hounds which he pictured as now chasing spectral fox in an eternal chase.

WILLS SEEMS TO BE DISCARDED AS FOE FOR DEMPSEY
Johnson, Firpo and Willard Seem Most Likely Pros
 poets Now

NEW YORK, Jan. 22-On the eve of Jack Dempsey's arrival In the east to discuss what promises to be an active campaign next summer, it be- came virtually established today that Harry Wills, ngro challenger, would not meet the title holder in 1923, if at all.
 WITS challenge and forfeit, post ed with the New York state athletic commission, for a bout with Demp- sey. still holds good. but William Muldoon, chairman of the commis- sion declared today there seemed lit tie Likelihood of the contest being arranged.
 Tex Ricksrd, who declared last summer that he would not attempt to stage Dempsey Wills contest before June, 1928. now is understood practically to have cancelled any plans he had made for It's promotion. Tom O'Rourke, matchmaker for the Polo Grounds, put in a bid for the bout last fall, but he is not likely to renew 1t for the coming outdoor sea- fson.
 Canada Doesn't Approve
 Canada. which was considered as possible site last year. has registered official disapproval to a mixed match. Boxing selons in New York and New Jersey, where Boyle's Thir- ty Acre would offer desirable site, would not, 1t Is believed, put. any obstacles in the way of the bout, nevertheless 1t seems that 1t has been placed in the discard.
 Indications are that Dempsey will engage in at least two bouts during the outdoor season, one with Will, lard, probably June 30 at Boylcs Thirty Acres, and another with either Johnson or Firpo, probably in Sep tember His opponent for a second bout will depend upon the outcome of an elimination series, two of which, between Bill Brennan and Firpo, and Tom Gibbons and Johnson, are carded for March.
 Gibbons may loom as contender, despite the fact that his formal chal- Ienge last week was rejected by the New York State Athletic cCmmis- sion on the ground that the St. Paul boxer was too light for the cham pion. His chances of meeting Demp- sey will depend largely on the out come of his bout with Johnson, who favorably impressed fans by the re- cent beating he gave to Brennan at Madison Square Garden.
 Dempsey is expected to reach New York tomorrow or Wednesday. His manager, Jack Kearns, will follow shortly afterward for a conference with Rickard, which is expected to result in a definite program of ac- tion.

one of the blossoms, you will, before
