CHAMP DUE.
FOR BLACK
LIST
Boxing Board, However, Not
Expected to Name Syn
thetic Champ
By SID MERCER

NEW YORK, March 24.-Jack
Dempsey will be placed on the in
eligible list today by the Ne"
York State Athletic Commission
Just how far the commission
will go in visiting its officials
displeasure on the heavyweight
champion Is matter of con1ec-
ture.
There is no reason to believe
that the boxing board will at
tempt to set up another heavy
weight throne and place Harry
Wills upon it.
The commission has learned
from experience that synthetic
champions are even worse than
the generally accepted title hold
ers. Most of them cannot or will
not fight. The cheap titles are
banded about and often have
brought the commission into ridi-
cule.
The New York authorities have
wisely declined to name State
champions" in the lightweight. vel
terweight and light heavyweight
divisions. although the world s
champions in these classes have
not boxed here in a long time.
Naming substitute champion for
Dempsey would be a ridiculous pro-
ceeding.
The commission now takes the
stand that Dempsey and Kearns
have not made satisfactory reply
TO the Wills ultimatum. Kearns
declares it is the only reply that is
possible under the circumstances.
The Dempsey forces are not per.
turbed over the situation. for the
champion had not planned to box
that time the stage can be set for
his restoration to eligibility.
The official sentence today
probably win be to an indefinite
period Of fneligfbility, or until
such time Is Dempsey agrees to
fight Wills. Other boxing bodies
which have q working agreement
with the New York Commission
will be asked to bar the champion
and any boxer who meets him In
any ring while he is under the
New York ban. That probably
will work no great hardship. mas
much as Dempsey may not go to
bat at all next summer.
Wills should be Convinced, by this
time that his one sure shot" is
with Tom Gibbons. He may or may
not get Dempsey later. but he will
be sure of picking up at least
500, 900 with Gibbons.
No official objection can be made
to this match. Paddy Mullins prob
ably will accept Gibbons for Wills
as soon as the skids are placed
under Dempsey.
Wills is said to be willing to
take Gibbons only as last resort
The theory that Gibbons and Wlil'
do not belong in the same ring Is
not borne out by their records. Ii
Willis is a fit challenger for Demp
sew he should not hesitate about
meeting Gibbons. It might not be
a thrilling encounter, but boxing
men generally believe Gibbons car
70 the limit with Willis and per
haps stop him.
