INDIANA MIGHT BAN
DEMPSEY GO
By the Associated Press.


INDIANAPOLIS, November l9-
The foundation for placing legal OBJ
sCacleS in the path of the proposed
Jack Dempsey-IIarry Wills fight in
Indiana, probably at Michigan City,
next Summer, was laid when Attor-
ney General Arthur L. Gilliom of In
diana gave Gov. Ed Jackson an opin-
ion on the legality of the fight which
virtually prohibits the meeting of
Dempsey and his challenger.
1T is possible Gillioms : opinion
said. that these men might. without
violating the law, meet for the single
purpose of exhibiting their skill as
boxers. excluding from their purpose
the exchange of blows which would be
calculated to determine superiority be-
tween them in their chosen and well
known profession. If this is the in
tention there is no intended violation
of the law" Otherwise he held that
such a meeting would violate the spirit
Of the Indiana law.
A distinction between "boxing ex.
hibition" and prize fight" is outlined
in the Indiana law, which forbids the
latter.
Articles for the match were signed
some time ago, with the two prin-
terms and conditions of the fight with
cipals reaching an agreement on

NEW YORK, November 19.-Benny
Leonard is coming back again
Benny, chortles the press agent, is
tiring of the idle life and bankers

resin and the glare of the cluster
lamps.
Benny. as all know, is treading the
stage once graced by the likes of
Henry Irving. Edwin Booth Richard
Mansfield and the rest of the cham
pion thespians. Also he is the head
of a big school of CORES pondence
on the manly art and how to keep fit.
Suppose Benny We're to throw his
hat into the ring? 1t stands TO rea-
son he would want a few workout
bouts.
How about Willie Harmon? Har-
mon is a rushing, mauling type of
fighters, who, however, is none too
fond of rough going and is very
solicitous about his stomach. Benny
knows how to lay 'em in there and
Willie would soon curl up.
Jack Zivic? Here is a good boxer
with a right-hand punch. Benny
would box rings around him even as
he did around the masterful Tender.
Paul Doyle? Doyle beat Civic and
was beaten in a return bout. He
has seen his best days, and would
fall before the former lightweight
king.
Sergt. Sammy Bakero Before the
soldier could bring around his wild
rights and swing Leonard would send
in a. neat left hook and Baker would
lie listening to the buSler sounding

Dave Shade? Well. Shade can
hardly be considered as a runner

could not make lat pounds to meet
Leonard and Walker probably would
not want to.

 Yet the enormous success Of this established swinde proved be- yond a doubt that at heart we arc sympathetic and anxious to help Il person in distress. Thousands of Americans have received mysterious letters from Spain - written in English -- stating that the writer was held a prisoner without bail on a cookcd-up charge. The prs. oncr had plenty of money 10 fur nish bail, but lt was in a hidden satchel which he could not reach while held In jail, 1T the sympa- hctic American would send sum of money to furnish the bail, the unfortunate prisoner, on gaining his freedom, would share the money in the satchcl with his bcnefactor. The prisoners address looked like that of a bastile, but it only looked that way to the American. The sWindlers got the names Of pros pectiye victims from agents on this side.
 When pickings were slow addi- tional bait would be thrown at gull "ble victims. This variant had 10 do with beautiful daughter of the prisoner, whom he would be glad to marry off to the American if he sent the money. Many an American sent the money merely 10 get an opportunity to become acquainted with the beautiful daughter.
 Under Spanish law intent to de- fraud is not crime; and the ac- tual fraud is not punishable unless the plaintiff appears in person. After being bunked out of % or so dollars no bunkees cared to spend money and time to so 10 Spain as a witness and be laughed at.
 The archives of the State De- partment are loaded with com plaints about the Spanish prisoner swindle, but the department could do nothing but give advice,
