CONFIDENCE BIC
FORTE Of TWO
SCRAPPERS
Neither Firpo Nor Wills Can
Conceive Other Man
Winning
By DAVIS j. WALSH.

NEW YO r X, Sept. 10.-The
writer has never seen two men more
Sanely confident Of one and the
same issue than are Harry Wills
and Luis Firpo, principals in to-
morrow's merry evening of fisticuffA
under the auspices of our Mr..
Richard.
With less than thirty.six hours
remaining before the business at
hand begins, Firpo this morning
looked to the immediate future with
vast serenity. He could not ION.
ceive of defeat and seemed con.
cerned only with plans for further
affairs Of the fist hereabouts, irmi
grafton officials permitting. Wills
was just as confident but q bit
more conservative.
He seemed willing to admit that
there was q vague possibility Of
losing. The admission, however,
was made with the air Of 3 man
who observes that sand paper
might be used as q bath towel.
This IL my first shot at the big
money and you can bet I'm not

know this baby can hit but I'll be

fellows have always been my meat.

the fight in a hurry. I hope he

haven't a worry In the world. II ]
lose-and I can't see how / can't
won't be because I'm not ready. The
fight gives me my chance to work
up TO bout with Dempsey. That's
enough for me-
The senior was in his habitual
mood Of deep gloom. but 1t wasn't
because he was concerned with the
outcome of the fight. Luis is Just
naturally lugubrious. Having virtu.
ally nothing to say, he said II and
then went into the silence. Convers.
ing via the handicap of an inter.
prefer. the great man intimated
that Wills was just an incident in
his crowded gay young life, and
that he had weightier matters upon
which he wished to concentrate.
Asked If he expected to win, he re.
piled simply:
"Of course. I wouldn't be fighting
this man II didn't expect to beat
him."
Firpo is the soul Of self-confi.
dence. being riyalled in this respect
only by Benny Leonard. He appar-
emily thinks that the Dempsey
Knockout was mistake of some
Kind, but whether he assumes the
blame for it himself and placed 1t
upon his handlers he declined to
state. The only mistake the writer
saw made that particular evening
was that Ftrpo persisted in leading
with his chin. He was like the
face on the barroom floor; he could
not get 1t off.
The betting odds in Wall street,
however, continued to say that
FirpO Is right as far as the Wills
matter Is concerned. They rested
today at 6 to on the cave man,
in spite Of the fact that Broad
Way shRrpShoOters think highly of
Wills and have made him a slight
favOrite.
There seems to be no unanimity
OF opinion anywhere, and given ia.
vorabie conditions, the bout might
have been q sell out. Firpo's
troubles. however. caused the Gus.
toners to avoid the box office for
such an extended period that prob.
ably not more than $4,000 will at.
tend At least. that was Richards
estimate TODAY.

STRIBLING KNOCKS OUT
CLICKNER IN SECOND

COLUMBUS, Ohio. Sept. 10.-By
means of a smash to the head with
his right, Young Stribling, Georgia
light heavyweight, knocked out Glen
Clickner, thirty, GAINESVILLE, in the
second round here last night.
Although Clickner managed to hit
Stribling two or three times, the
blows seemingly made no impression

trick. ALSO, DEMPSEY NEVER
BACKED UP!
May Lose His Heart

May Lose His Heart
NINDING Firpo taking the
best he has around the body
and fearing the loss of his
hands if he directs his blows to
the jaw, Harry Wills may lose
heart as the Argentinian starts
for him and prove a sorry vic
tim. This would not surprise the
writer in the least.
Jess Willard, outweighing Firpo
and landing at win to the body,
lost his heart when he found that
he could not stop that wild-rush-
ing behemoth from South Amer
lea. Had Firpo known it, he
might have stopped Willard in
that great fourth round, or in
the fifth at the latest. Instead,
he feared trickery and did not un-
timber his guns again till the
eighth.
Against Dempsey Firpo went
out to make it a smuggling match
with the opening bell. The world
knows what happened, how close
he came to becoming champion.
He failed largely because he
found Dempsey a better slugger
than himself.
Wills is no slugger. He likes
to box. He can outlook Firpo
without half trying. But the
moment Firpo thinks the bout is
getting away from him, he will
start tearing in, failing that aw-
full right to Wills head and face
and body. Some of those socks
should find the mark, whether to
jaw or body, and it will not re-
quire many to end the ring career
Of Harry Wills for all time.

EIRPO possesses real ring ag-

Once Firpo has taken some of
Wills best punches and knows

Firpo Should Win.

THIS writer has been more or
less actively interested in box
ing for years, yet it is doubt
full if he would make the jump to
Jersey City to see Firpo tackle
Wills, had he the opportunity. AS
it is, he will probably be at Pitts

Bucky Harris, wishing him we'll.
If not, he will be on his way to

This Firpo-wills thing shapes
up like a mediocre bout between
huge, untamed gentleman with
hard jaw and a huge, timid per-
son with bad hands. There you
have Messrs. Firpo and Wells, as
they appear to this writer. He
may be wrong. He has been in
the past. He may be again. And
he won't worry over it for a
moment.
Firpo is a rugged, one-handed
fighter. 1t is questionable how
much pounding he can endure
when directed to his midriff. He
has a hard jaw, yet Jack Demp-
sey dropped him frequently with
hooks to that same jaw, finally
quieting him altogether.
Wills is a big man with great
strength in his arms, an intimate
knowledge of infighting, fair
speed, and hands that may fail
him in the pinch.
Having seen Firpo demolish the
giant Willard and knock Jack
Dempsey out among the type

Argentinan will win with a knock
