ness, has issued an ultimatum CIV
ing Wills until noon today to accept
or reject the milk fund offer. Paddy
Mullins, when informed of this state
of affairs, merely smiled. Mullins
also does Wills smiling for him, it
seems.
II he is still at It by noon, Kane
declares he will sign for the Tunney
affair without delay. The latter al

cago, from which point he can start
east or west as the situation war
rants. Tunney has offers under
consideration from California pro-
rnoters to meet Young Stribling and
Tommy Loughran and will accept
either or both If the Gibbors
proposition runs into a siding.
The indications today were that
nothing of the kind would happen.
MuIIin, q man Of his word and
not many of them, has stated
that he will wait until tomorrow
in the fOrlOrn hope that Dempsey
will have something to say for
publication. Tomorrow, according
to Kane, viii be Just q day too
late. The probability is that Glib
bOns and Tunney will be matched
by that time and the heavyweight
situation will be i'm a more COM
plox state than ever before.
A Gibbons-Tunney bout will prove
nothing beyond the fact that one
of them punches more frequently
than the other. It would 80 the
limit Of fifteen rounds, and at the
end, Wills would still have to be
accounted for. A Gibbons Wills
match at least would establish the
identity of the leading heavyweight
contender, who would in time be.
come recognized as the champion Il
Dempsey remained in the silence Tor
| a protracted period.
That is one reason Kane would
rather do business with Wills than
with Tunney. Another is that he
has given the milk fund people his
word to consider their offer before
all others. A third involves the
fact that the golden harvest moon
would shine more brightly at the
milk fund show.
However, the other side Of the
story is that Mullins, in spite OF
all he has been told to the con
trary, is disposed to wait for Demp
sey. But, according to the pres
ent outlook, time, tide and Kane
wait for no man.

Certain it is that he doesn't in

Washingtonians are pleased to refer

And certain it is, too, that the
new blood on the pitching detach-
ment is none OF it showing up so
poorly in this ramble through Dixie
that any of it can yet be pro-
nounced hopeless.
Beginning with the elder heav-
ers that might be expected to
have but q few more years Of

group Gregg, Ruether and Cove

Harris is relying to tuck many

He bought these ''withered'' flow

he Is very iubilant that he did.
It is being predicted freely
among men whose business base

has placed his stamp OF approval
indelibly on the pair Of them, and
they seem set to stay. Bucky said
no longer ago than this morning
that this trio viii put the Griffs

Ogden is getting a thorough trial

Shocker Is Anxious
to Pitch For
a Champ

A veteran umpire, who, for
obvious reasons, does not wish
to be quoted. was asked recently
to name the best pitcher in
the American League. Without
hesitation he named Urban
Shocker. Why Sc. Louis should
have let him get away is still
a mystery to some and not to
others who claim to know that
Shocker. and Sisler did not get
along well, that Shocker got on
less with Phil Ball, and that
Shocker wanted to get with
New York, hoping to get q
chance to pitch in at least one
world series.
