All Signs Point to Heavy

BIZ Times SDeciaG

BIZ Times Special
NEW YORK, April 2S.-Unless an
other heavyweight ballyhoo is being
fed to the public. Jack Dempsey and
Gene Tunney will fight a champion
ship battle in the fall.
From statements made by Tex
Richard, who returned to New York
from Fort Worth. Texas, with Demp-
sey's signature to a blank contract,
and Billy Gibson, Tunney's manager,
it would appear that Harry Wills,
the Negro challenger, has been left
out in the cold.
Richard explained that he had
tried to get Wills signature to a
contract, but that Paddy Mullins, the
Negroes manager, had told him Wills
was already lined up with another
promoter.
Meanwhile, word came from Billy
Gibson in Chicago that Tunney prob
ably would meet the champion
sometime in September"
The threatened rift in the New
York boxing commission over the Sc
lection Of Demp sey's opponent did
not materialize at Tuesdays meeting
Of the board Richard was not sum
moned by the commissioners nor did
he send wOnl TO them.

With all plans set for the cere-
monies and game, the park dolled
up and Hoosier followers on edge,
all that's needed to make the event
bowling success is the return of
spring weather and a victory for
the home club.
Bill Burwell is slated to pitch for
the Indians, and the fans are will
ing to leave it up to Bill. There is
some question about the kind of
weather that will be dished out, but
the bugs" also are willing to take
a chance on that.
Among Leaders
The Bushmen today returned home
from their western trip with eight
victories against five defeats, and in
third place In the American Associa-
ton standing They are not far
below the top rung and aim to reach
the peak during the home'stay start
ing Thursday. And they will re-
ceive proper encouragement from
Washington Park fans.
Bush's 1926 team has the rooters
feverishly excited. Reports received
while the club was on the road said
the Tribe looked the part of pennant
contenders along with Louisville
and Minneapolis, and Indianapolis is
proud of the record the Indians es-
tablished in enemy territory.
Cold weather and rain prevented
the Tribe from meeting the Saints
at St. Paul Tuesday and the Bush
men departed for Indianapolis Tues
day night. Today is in off-day in
the A. A. schedule, as all eight clubs
travelled east to resume action
Thursday.
All Clubs Move East
The eastern A. A. teams opened
in the western half Of the circuit
this season, April 10, and now In
dianapolis, Louisville, Toledo and
Columbus are to have their turn.
Thursdays A. a. schedule follows:
Kansas City at indianapolis.
Milwaukee at Louisville.
st. Paul at Toledo.
Minneapolis at Columbus.
Washington Park officials have
worked hard to get the grounds and
stands in shape for the gala event
Thursday. A large tarpaulln has
been purchased to cover the infteld
to protect 1t against pre-game show
ers.
Only a small number Of the seats
will be reserved for this years open
ing game. The boxes will be re-
served, of course, and all box seats
are gone. The screened-in section
back of the visitors dugout has
been reserved for civic clubs and
parade boosters. The many other
seats in the grand stand will go on
sale when the gates open at 1890,
Thursday.
Many chairs will be available in
front Of the grand stand to take care
of an expected overflow, and the
field seats are up in right field to
accommodate any further overflow
from the grand stand.

The major league pennant
races have a strangely familiar
look these days. One is remind
ed of 1922 and 90, when the
Yankees and Giants monopOlized
things in their respective
leagues. The McGrawmen were
out in front before tOday's
games in the National and the
Yankees were tied with Cleve-
land for top berth in the Ameri-
can.
