DELAY OBTAINED
FOR HEARING IN :
LUIS F|RPO CASE
wild Bull Granted Until
Sept. 20 to Answer
Charges of Perjury.

By United Press
NEW YORK, Aug. 19.-Chances of
Luis Firpo being deported from this
country before he has an oppor-
tunity to mix punches with Harry
Wills were overcome today when
Firpo's hearing in a Federal court
on a perjury charge was continued
to Sept 20.
The F'irpo-Wills fight is scheduled
for Sept. II and so far as the court
is concerned the wild bull can
climb into the ring on that date.
Firpo arrived here from his train
ing camp this morning to appear
before United States Commissioner
Hitchcock on a warrant charging
him with giving false testimony be-
fore immigration authorities regard
ing his relations with Miss Blanca
Lourdes Picart.
The warrant was obtained by
Canon William Chase, rector of
Christ Episcopal Church in Brook
Ign and president of the New York
Civic League, who tried unsuccess-
fully to have Firpo deported after
he was alleged to have tried to bring
Miss Picart into this country as his
stenographer.
Canon Chase said no attempt
would be made to prosecute Firpo
for an alleged violation Of the Mann
act, it being charged only that he
had given false testimony when he
swore ne had only a casual ac-
Quaintance with the woman.
