Ever since NurIni started rum

1T has been the consensus Of optn.
ion that the taciturn athlete has

In this country.
Nothing is farther from the truth.
Nurmi received $3.50 for ex-

at the b. A. "A. games!
This was learned from an all
thoritative source and the au-
thenticity Of Nurni's expenses cam
not be doubted.

He claims only the bare expenses

Dempsey-WiIIs Affair May Be

Mills Claim
By DAVIS J. WALSH,
international News Service.

NEW YORK, Feb. 5.-A new
impeachment for the proposed re-
turn meeting of Jack Dempsey
and Tom Gibbons in this State
came to the surface today witA
the announcement that pressure
may be brought to bear upon the
New York State Athletic Commits
sion to force it to refuse sanction
for the affair, If and when for
NAL application for q permit is
made. Friends of Harry Wills,
the perennial 'colored gent in the
woodpile, are said to be behind
the movement which is founded
upon the fact that Wills has q
prior challenge on file.
This, according to the commits
aion's code, would give Wills def
precedence over that Of Gibbons,
and failure to recognize this fact
would place the board in the
equivocal position Of violating its
own precepts.
Mickey Walker and Mike No
Tigue, among others. stand con-
victed OF lese majestic IN this State
because they failed to accept chal-
4GA1AG2f
the medium OF the commission.
Walker has been under suspension
since time out Of memory and all
boxers who saw FIT to frolic with
him in alien rings suffered the
same fate. McTigue is outside the
Jurisdiction Of the board because he
never applied for q license here,
but the commission has let It be
known that Michael il looked upon
with heavy disfavor.
Few persons hereabOuts believe
that wills has anything but an
edison chance with Dempsey.
As one boxing man o. more than
ordinary horse sense put II today:
81 w0uIdn't walk across the street
to see the thing. Wills has never
shown me Q thing"
Yet, the colored man has had a
serious challenge on Tile Tor years
without getting anywhere in par
ticuIar on the issue. Dempsey
even signed an agreement to meet
him several years ago but the
whole matter has been allowed to
so by default. When Firpo came
mp from nowhere with his spectac-
ular rush, it was the Latin and
not wills who got the big shot at
the title.
The commission made no appar-
ent effort to save its official face
on this occasion. It merely
ignored the Wills angle Of the
situation and went ON suspending
champions in other classes who
failed to accept challenges with due
alacrity.
