Today, the former worlds heavy

prospect of getting 100000 for 80
minutes or less in his attempt to
regain the crown from Gene Tunney
in their battle at Soldiers field

The warmth of the welcome accord
ed Dempsey tangled traffic in the
vicinity of the Morrison hotel for
hours.
"They never flocked around me
like this when was the champion, "
Dempsey remarked with smile. "It
makes me feel good. Chicago, you
know, is the place where really

Despite his pleasure at the enthus,
iasm of the throng, Dempsey avoided
them as best he could He left the
train with his wife, Estelle Taylor,
at suburban station, and motoreu
with her to the Edgewater Beach
hotel, where she was hidden away
from the crowd
Dempsey established his own head
quarters temporarily at the Morrison
hotel, entering the building by the
employees entrance to escape the
crush.
After conference with Leo P.
Flynn, his manager, Dempsey decided
that he would not go into training
s his Lincoln field camp until Mon.
day and possibly Tuesday, resting
until that time.
The former champion, tanned a
deep brown, said he weighed about
204 pounds, which is about eight
pounds above his usual fighting
weight He appeared eager to plunge
into his training grind but said he
would do no boxing for possibly a
week after going into camp.
Dempsey is satisfied that he is in
good shape to go into training but
expressed wish that he might weigh
tour or five pounds more.

He Never Cries In Pinches

He Never Cries In Pinches
Some. years ago the late Silk"
,,O'Loughlin created much discussion
by insisting there were no close de-
cisions, the runner was either Out
or safe.
Of late years, Bill Guthrie, unpiring
in the majors and minors at various
times, came forward with about the
same sizeup of the so called critical
plays in a game by saying:
'To me they. are either Dis or
Dat" meaning out or safe Bill
would purposely use the rather un-
grammatical expression to make his
opinion more forceful.
Recently, when asked Wiley
Moore, doing his first year in the
big show, if he didn't get lump
in his throat occasionally when he
was dropped into a tight game with
the based filled, he laconically replied
in his peculiar southern draw.
mot me- What's the use of
worrying? just say as walk
into the box, well here is where
I do or don't. Maybe I haven't
any nerves but it's no strain to
me-"
Uses Only One Style Delivery
Moore is one OF those pitchers
who depend almost exclusively on
a one style delivery for success. While
he dabbleS with curve and is learn
ing a change of pace, his one best
bet is his fast ball. 1t is a most
unusual one.
A fast ball, delivered with a, side
arm motion and kept low, has enabled
Moore to battle the best batters in
the American league. Ernie Shore
for years a member of the Boston
Red Sox, is the last pitcher can
recall who used similar delivery.
Moore's fast ball sinks as it nears
the plate, much after the manner of
a spitball The batter usually tops
it, driving the ball into the ground
for easy rollers to the infield.
= ~
Moore won 80 games and lost
four last season in the South
Atlantic league, yet all the scouts
passed him up. This year he will
win Is, possibly 20 in the Amer
ican. No wonder they sing the
blues when he registers win for
the Yankees.

Pitcher Wiley Moore of the New
York Yankees is a big favorite Wotft
the Gotham fans.
The Yankee lineup fairly bristleS
with outstanding stars, names like
Ruth, Pennock, Gehrig, Lazzeri and
SO on down the line and often among
them is Wiley Moore.
At the opening of the American
league season, Pitcher Wiley Moore
was given little or no consideration
as a regulcAA II any of the critics
had ventured the opinion that he
would be a valued member OF the
Yankee pitching staff by the middle
of May, his sanity would have been
questioned.
Yet such a thing has come to pass
and it wouldn't surprise me in this
least if the unknown Wiley Moore
OF 1926 got fair share of votes in
the most valuable player in the
American league contest Of 1927.
Since the opening of the season
it has been just one tough spot
after another for Wiley Moore
and he has seldom failed to
make good as proved by his
record.
