BACKING
By JACK DEMPSEY

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. r.
July 14.-It's okay with me il the
boys want to make Jack Sharkey
a betting favorite in this batting
bee of ours. but 1 get TO wonder
ing sometimes just how they figure
1t that way.
From all hear they make
Sharkey the favorite because he is
SO much younger than I am: they
reckon that his youth and his pre-
sumed greater speed will turn the
trick.
But have the boys ever stopped
to think about that Sharkey.
McTigue fight and do some ponder
ing thereafter?
McTigue is seven. or eight years
older than i am. My age is 32-
and that Is still a youthful period,
as compared with the SO or 40 for
McTigue. l am about Is pounds
heavier than McTigue. No one
challenges the statement that I
punch harder. And, even though
the folks get to talking about how
much slower am than / used to
be. no one has been saying that
McTigue is any faster so far as
taking punishment is concerned.
And so far as tearing into 4
man is concerned. guess l
have = little something on the
ancient Michael.
Without attempting to take from
Mike McTigue any of the credit
that so richly is his due. I think
that when it comes to punching
power, ability to stand up under
a seeking. and in the matter of
age and speed / have an edge over
him.
Now, IL all the reports are true
concerning that McTigue- Sharkey
fight, it seems that Mike kept Shar-
key awfulIy busy for TO rounds.
Mike lost out in the 18th. The ref
cree stopped the fight. But from
what ] hear it was not because he
was 80 badly beaten up as it was
because one of Sharkey's punches
had cut an artery in Mikes lip and
the blood could not be checked.
Not even the most rabid Of
the Sharkey partisanS have
declared that IL IL had not been
for Mikes split lip that Mike
could have gone through the 10
rounds and perhaps made it q
mighty close decision.
Shsrkey, great puncher though
some folks claim he is, did not put
McTigue on the floor, according 10
the information l have. He couldnt
staggsr Mike, nor keep him from
dashlrg in. Sharkey won the fight.
but he won it on more because of
an accident to Mike than because
he was such a superman.
Now, the way look at 1t, If
Sharkey could not floor Mike or stop
him from charging in, although Mike
can't take 'em like ] think / can
take EN-, and even though Mike is
seven or eight years older than /
am, where do the Sharkey folks get
the notion that Sharkey is going to
stop me. when I'm rs pounds heavier
than Mike, lot stronger and with
q punch that has a reputation for
being a whole lot stouter than
Mikes?
/ hear so much about 'tSharkey's
Is and Dempsey's 81 and age will
turn the tide of battle" But il that 8
all true, and II Sharkey figures to
beat me because he's seven years
younger, will somebody please tell
me why it did not seem to make an
awful lot Of difference when he
fought man who was almost old
enough to be his father.

They cleaned up the Red Sox

may be the other starter, If he

Is acting TO suit him.
Ten games remain 10 be
played by the Griffrnen before
they return to the Capital for

and five in st. Louis. An even
break will send them home on
the long end against the west,
but they are out to increase that

supposed to be.
Jacks rounding into shape in a
wonderful way" added Leo. He's
been working without effort for
more than a week. He has more
durability than an OK, and he has
the same old power in his punches.
He may be a bit slower-but this
fellow is not sluggish. His marks

There Ss a good market in the states for live reindeer which have been broken to pull sleigh, accord ing to B. B. Mozee, superintendent of the central district of the bureau of education. There Is more money to be made through the sale of train- cd live animals than there is in but chering them and there is a splendid opportunity in Alaska for a limited number of enterprising men to en- gage in the business. in the opinion of Mr. Mozee He believes that 1t would be possible for man to make profit of s5O00 on 100 deer in a single season. The animals can be purchased in the reindeer country for about $25 per head and sold in the states for $1OO or more, if they are properly trained. Some of the deer shipped to the states a year ago brought very fancy prices, one of them having sold for $12O0, but that was an exceptional case.
