MOVEMENT ON TO
QUIT USING BALL
PARKS FOR BOUTS
Confusion at Dempsey
FirpO Fight One Rea-
son Behind Ban
BY HENRY L. FARRELL
Omitted Press Sports Editor)

NEW YORK, April 23.-war
against Tex Rickard. waged by rival
New York promoters, is to see new
offensive during the coming sum-
mer, when an attempt is to be made
to keep him out of New York.
Jimmy Johnston, who promoted at
the Yankee stadium last summer
and who turned over Johnny Ban
dee's contract to his brother so as
to comply with the ruling of the
boxing commission, that man can,
not act as a promoter and man.
ager, has been selected as the lead
er of the offensive.
Johnston announced that the own
ors Of the Giants and the Yankees
had reached an agreement to allow.
him to make the matches and handle
the fights that are to be held in the
Yankee stadium end at the Polo
Grounds. He said that he would be
connected with both clubs and that
10 other promoter could get in
either park with match.
This means, it is believed, that
Rickard will not be able to use eth
er of the big baseball parks, and
that he will have to fall back upon
his big pine bowl in Jersey City.
Richard, however, insists that he
could put one or two big matches
in the Polo Grounds, if he wanted
to do it, but that he had decided
that baseball parks were not the
proper place in which to stage box,
ing matches. 1t has been reported
that the boxing commission feels
the same way about it,, and that
some rule may be passed which will
make the parks less attractive to
promoters.
Dempsey-Firpo Fight Disorderly
The Dcmpsey-f'irpo fight ut the
Polo Grounds last summer resulted
in a large number Of complaints be-
ing filed with the boxing commits
sion.
Rickard was frank iii admitting
that there were many good reasons
for complaint, and he said after the
fight that he was through with ball
parks for big championship matches.
William Muldoon, former chair
man of the commission, said after
he had been reappointed to q place
on the commission thai he would
favor aud support any rule that
would stop or discourage the promo
tion of boxing i'll the ball parks.
----sE Ehe.4 4ownersieof the Giants lost
more than 100000 when Tom
O'Rourke was handling their fight
department and it is significant
that on the one. fight that Rickard
handled for them they were able to
get in the clear and have few dol
lars left.

NEW OFFENSIVE LAUNCHED AGAINST RICKAR
GIANTS, TIGERS
SETTING PACE I'm
PENNANT RACE
Nv Uni.ed Press Leased Wire


NEW YORK, April 23.-Mc-
Graw's champion Giants and the
Detroit Tigers are now setting the
pace in thc major league pennant
races. Both clubs are in first place
after having won five out Of their
first six games.
The Giants have been playing the
best ball in the National League
and they have been getting all the
breaks. -Four of their five games
were won by rallies in the ninth in
ming which goes to show that the
champions are having no easy
time against eastern opposition that
is none too formidable.
Fine pitching and the timely hit
ting for which the club has always
been noted have helped the Detroit
Tigers get out in. front in the
American league. Ty Cobb seems
to have picked up one of the best
pitchers in the business in young
Eagle Whitehill. 1t was this young
stcr who was mostly responsible for
the success Of the Tigers in finish
ing second in last years pennant
race.

TO PROBE ALLEGED
MONOPOLY IN BREAD
Baking Industry and Retail
ers in Giant Combine to
Control Price and Output of
Loaves, Is Charge

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-A re-
port charging nation wide prof1teer-
ing in bread and that creation OF
colossal bread trust is impending
was submitted today by Basil M.
Manly, director Of the Peoples leg1s-
lative service, to Senator LaFollette,
of Wisconsin it's chairman, and
"other progressive senators and rep
resentatives, The report, which
was outlined in an announcement by
the organization, recommended con-
gressional action to "deflate bread
prices and check the growth of the
bread trust"
An investigation OF wheat and
bread prices, made at the request OF
the senators and representatives &c
whom the report was submitted
showed, it was said, that the Amer
lean people are paying "a million
dollars a day" too much for their
bread. The average retail price OF
bread in the United States is 9 cents
a pound, whereas, on the basis OF
present wheat prices, it should be
cents, the report said, adding that
bread made with American flour is
now selling in England at an aver
age price of cents pound.
Asserting millers, bakers and re
tailers were all making enormous
profits, the report cited as an exam
pie the General Baking company
described as one of the two largest
wholesale baking corporations In the
country. AS a result of the profits
made by this company it was said
zone dollar invested In it's common
stock in 1916 is now worth $780,
Alleged retailers rings" said tc
be supported by the wholesale bak
ers either voluntarily or under
threat Of boycott, were declared tc
have suspended the law of supply
and demand, resulting in artificial
bread prices in many cities.
