Bidder Oued Job With G1s Dempsey Due to Go Stage
FIRPO- SPAlLA BOUT
STIRS BUENOS AIRES
By the Associated Press.

By the Associates Press.
BUENOS AIRES. March 6.-The at
mosphere of international rivalry sur
the bout between Luis Firpo
and Erminio .Spalla, the Italian
heavyweight, which is to take place
next Friday night. became intensified
on receipt by Spalla Of cablegram
from Benito Mussolini, the Italian
premier. telling him to -'keep the
Italian colors aloft," and another
message from the Italian Boxing
Federation encouraging him to vic
tory.
Both Firpo and Spalla have ended
their hard training. The sporting
writer's think Spalla lacks sufficient
punch to hurt Firpo seriously. Firpo
outweighs the Italian by about thirty
three pounds and has longer reach.
Firpo, nevertheless. is taking his
fight with Spalla much more serious.
Iy than he did that with Farmer"
Lodge and has been training inten-
sivelX for the past ten days.
Spalla announced that unless he
was Unexpectedly disappointed he
would proceed to the United States
and seek matches with Renault,
Wills and Dempsey.
All the Buenos Aires newspapers
sent special reporters and photogra-
piers to find out something about AL
Reich. the American heavyweight.
when he arrived on the steamer
American Legion to fulfill his en-
gaEement to fight F'irpo.
Reich told the reporters that he
came to win. He said he was In per-
feet condition, as he had continued
training all through the voyage.
He expects to find sparring part
ners and continue vigorous training
until the date of the match, which
has been set for March Is, but which
may be postponed to March %.
