DID, Time Tiger Ferocity Returns to Jack DEMPSEY
Bismarck Athlete Battles
Current, Whirlpools to
Cross Missouri

+. Forced to battle against strong
currents and whirlpools, Frank Kic-
bert, local youth, last night swami
the Missouri river in IL minutes and
48 seconds.
Kiebcrt did not break his last
years record of nine minutes and 10
seconds, because of the fact that he
had to fight against a much strong
err current than last year and swim
farther, due to the high stage Of
the water.
Starting at $3.50, just below the
Northern Pacific bridge, while hun
dreds watched, Kiebert got out into
the river and was forced to battle
nearly five minutes against the
strong current which sweeps the
east shore before he could get past
it.. Twice, on his swim, he gave spec
tators goosefleah when whirlpools
sucked him under. One Of these, he
said, carried him nearly to the bot
tom of the liver and he had to fight
his way up.
He landed a short distance above
the Memorial Bridge after battling
with the shifty current there. To
avoid bcinp carried against ono of the
bridge piers, he had to swim up
stream to get around tho current
and reach shore.

CHAMPION IS
JUST A KID
Louisiana 1itleh0lder Only Is
Years Old-GrOOmed For
National HOnOfs

New Orleans, La, July 14.-(NEA)
Upon the head of 15-year-0ld
golfer rests the championship of this
state,
The kid is Edwin Mcclure Of
Shreveport, who won his laurels by
defeating. among others, the nation
ally known Fred Lamprecht, twice
winner of the national intercollegiate
championship.
Louisiana golfers. rcmembe ring
how Atlanta and Georgia went wild
over, Bobby Jones when that great
golfer wa1 mere y0ungster, are
not claiming similar career for
their youngster. -
They do predict, however, that Nc
Clurc has the possibilities Of fol-
lowing in Jones' footsteps to a great
extent. They are sane enough to
know that golfers of the Bobby Jones
type are few and far between.
Like Cooper
This Mcclure is like another great
golfer, Harry Cooper, in many re-
spects. He's cocky and chance taker
and don't mind the world knowing he
thinks he's pretty good!
He never worries. He never knows
when he is beaten. He plays his
best at all times, regardless of whcth-
er he is up or down in match.
Natural ability he has, and plenty
of it.
The new champion had his first
real tournament experience in 1926
when he qualified in the state meet
with an 80. He didn't get far in that
meet, losing out to Reuben G. Bush
Ill, one of the greats in southern
play.
This year the same two players
met in the same round that they had
the year previous, and Mcclure won
and went on the championship after
beating Lamprecht, the title holder.
Plays S Years
The kid has been playing golf for
five years. N. w. Mcclure, his dad,
used to take him and his brother,
James. to the club regularly and
bought them set Of clubs to while
away their time while he was out on
the links.
Neither Edwin nor. James wasted
their time. They were learning to
play golf. Pros at the country club,
and there were several OF. them in
those five years, took an Interest in
the lads in short trousers and taught
them the finer points Of the game.
When Edwin was s13 he broke 90
for the first time. He also was
runner-up in the junior club cham
pionship that year, losing out to his
brother in the finals.
| He didn't break 80 until after he
had taken part in his first state
tournament. But since then breaking
~ is just one Of those things he does
every time he plays.
| You never can tell how these hos
wonders will turn out but Mcclure
seems to have all the essentials -
become national figure in golf
They believe in him in Shreveport
they gave him testimonial Dime,
after he Had won the. ,stat&-cha1n.
pionship. and they're encouraging
him to go on in.golf to bigger anl
better things, like Bobby. Jones did.
So you never can tell-the future
Bobby Jones may be Edwin McClurl
of Shreveport, La, presEnt stat,
champion at the age OF Is. "

Billy Evans Says

In my stops at the various big
sport centefs Of the country, l find
considerable difference of opinion
relative to the merits Of the three
leading heavyweights, Gene Tunney,
Jack Sharkey and Jack Dempsey.
Fistic writer's lean to Jack
Sharkey; that is, majority Of them
believe he has an excellent chance to
beat both Dempsey and Champion
Tunney.
On the other hand, fighters who
should know their stuff feel that
Sharkey would win from Dempsey,
but don't like his chances against
Tunney.
Eight fans do not appreciate Tun-
ncy," remarked a former champion
when asked him how he viewed the
heavyweight situation, "hc's real
fighter.

At the halfway mark in the major
league season. July 4, the New York
Americans enjoyed lead of 11h

a positive favorite.
However. seven other clubs in the

Additional hope that the Yankees

FIGHT TO BE IN N. Y.

New York, July 14.--lP,-Jack
Ssharkey is just about down to fight
ing weight for his Is round contest
against Jack Dempsey. Under a boil
ing sun Sharkey yesterday worked
off four pounds in a short sparring SEES
sion, some rope jumping and shadow
boxing. Because of the fear Of get
ting too fine the former sailor aban-
doned his usual road grind in Cen
trail Park.
"When ! whip Dempsey l am going
to insist that the championship fight
be held in New York." said Sharkey.
He didn't use the word "if." He said
he had fought his way to mnence
in New York, had beaten Wills, Nc
Tigue and Maloney in local rings
and would demand that New York
fans get to see the Tunney bout.
Tex Richard has been considering
Chicago for the championship fight.
Sharkey plans to enter the ring
against Dempsey weighing 1872. From
now on the Lithuanian's workouts

Regularly Sharkey Works
Out Under Boiling Sun

Saratoga Lake. N. T., July 14.-LAp
Flashes of old time tiger fcrOcity,
reminiscent of the days Of Toledo
and BOyles' Thirty Acres. indicate
that Jack Dempsey is well advanced
on the road that may lead to the
most sensational comeback in ring
history.
With a lone week remaining before
Dempsey meets Jack Sharkey in the
Yankee stadium, an ever increasing
inclination to drop boxing lessons
Tor the sheer JOY Of crushing spar

former champions workouts. The
black scOwl SO characteristic Of the
heydey deepcns daily as Jack feels
the growing tensencss Of perfect
fighting trim. The way back to the
title lost to Gene Tunney last fall
has been made easier to Dempsey by
the return Of the battling spirit Of
pre-title days and the will to head
again the heavyweight parade.
Has Terrific Punch
Despite the constant efforts Of
Jacks handlers to hold him to the
grind that comprises learning "a de-
Tense for Sharkey's cutting left

that he was. unable to keep in leash
the terrific. punch that he knows is
again in his massive fighting ma
chinery.
After faithfully following the de-
fensive advices of his manager and
ring tutor, Leo p. Flynn, Jack sud-
denly 1oosed the full force of his
flashing attack against the giant In
dian chief Metoquah and the full
power of three looming lefts to the

in two workouts that Jack had flat
tened the big Oklahoman.
! Jacks former ability to bore
through clever defense with an un-

came to light again in the twe-round
drill against the clever negro. Larry

Campus Comment
(BY BOB MATHERINE)

1t doesn't take the spirit of an
optimist to see that the college track
men arc going to be big help to
our Uncle Samuel in the next Olym-
pic campaign.
Now that all the big track meets
of the season are over and the re-
suits are in, it looks as if the rah-
rah boys are sure participants in
certain events, although they won't
rank as high in some others.
The names of Borah of Southern
California, Hamm of Georgia Tech,
Husey of Boston, Carr of Yale, AL
dcrman Of Michigan State; Wells Of
Dartmouth, Cox Of Penn State and
Hines of Georgetown are few one
thinks of offhand as Olympic ma
terial.
There are many others who should
be able to represent Uncle Samuel
we'll year hence. The games are
that far away, and many q young
ster who failed to cut any capers
event by the time the gang sails for
Europe.
What the collcgians lack, it must
be remembered, will be made up
from a number Of graduated collie
gians. club members, the New York
police department and other units
of track endeavor, SO Uncle Sam
won't be easy to beat.
Colorado is going to try to
make her name nationally known
in the football world next sea-
son. The schedule pits them
against Montana State, Utah and
Southern California; and victor
les over the three schools, plus
good record in their state
clashes. would give them the
right to be heard from. Victory
over Southern California alone,
would place Colorado In the ma
tt0nsl limelight, but that's = vic.
