Many Sparring Partners

New York, July 11.-(AP)-
Speed, right uppercut and left
iab appear to be what Jack Sharkey
is .perfecting for his fight with
Jack Dempsey here the night Of
July 81.
Sharkey's Wanted left has been
noticeably absent in his early train
ing sessions, and hiss right hand
hook--the punch that erased Jimmy
Maloney from the heavyweight pic
ture, has been on display only once
or twice. The right hook, accord
ing to one of the Bostonian's staff.
is being developed under cover.
The uppercut is being brought into
play often.
Sticks to Road Work
The ex-gob is sticking to his road
work and gets in four miles or
more each morning. His wind is
excellent. Yesterday he went at
top speed for six rounds without
breathing hard.
While Sharkey's battle plans
have not been divulged, observers
believe the former sailor expects to
jab Dempsey out Of stride and en-
ploy his right hand at short range.
The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1927-07-11

eyes of the departing guests could
be matched only by anxiety Of the
boys who had just appeared for
seeking duty with the former
champion.
After asking waivers on Jack
Hildebrand, Petro CORR and Bill
Batey, Leo P. Flynn handed them
releases and one-way transporta-
ton south, simultaneously. The
usefulness of Hildebrand,\ a SYRIA
cuse heavyweight, ceased With two
successive knockouts at Dempsey's
hands in the last two workouts.
Petro CORR, strong man from Aus
tria, had been badly battered and
Batey was found too light for the
rugged going.
Both newcomers, Chief Metoquah,
La 1876 pound Indian from Oklahoma,
and Marley Gallagher, an Irish lad
from Washington, D. c., were or.
dered to bear their part of the box
ing burden today.
Dempsey entered the final lar
of the conditioning battle weighing
well over 200 pounds, according tG
some advices from Jacks bungalow
stronghold deep in the woods. The
official announcement set Demp.
sey's poundage at 1913, two more
than he expects to weigh on the
night Of the fight. No outsider has
yet been allowed to see Dempsey
climb on the scales.

SPITBALL SOON
TO BE MEMORY
Five Years More Probably
Will Spell Death Knell of
Moist Delivery
RY BILLY EVANS

Mex York, July 1.-THE spitball
will soon be but memory in the
major leagues. Five years more
will probably spell the death knell
Of the moist delivery.
When broke into the majors
back in 1906, the spitball was at the
very height of it's popularity.
Two years prior to my debut, the
veteran Jack Chebro of the New
York Americans, with the spitball as
his one best bet, had won At games.
BY going to the spitball Chesbro
kept his star shining brightly ut a
time when it seemed he was about
to slip.
Only 6 Remain
Only six spitball pitchers remain
in the major leagues. The oldest is
Jack Quinn, AZ; the youngest, Bur-
leigh Grimes, 81. Few pitchers are
able to stand the pace in the majors
at the 40 mark, SO it is fairly safe
to say that in five years the spit
ball delivery will be but q memory.
Three Of the fading six are Amer
lean Leaguers - Faber Of Chicago,
Quinn of the Athletics and Shocker
of New York. The three National
Leaguers are Burleigh Grimes Of
the Giants, Clarence Mitchell Of
Philadelphia and Bill Doak Of the
Brooklyn team.
Stanley Coveleskie, one, Of the
most famous Of the spitball pitchers,
was recently given his unconditional
release by Washington. In 1920
,Coveleskie won three world series
games for Cleveland.

New York. July 11.-(NEA)-What
a disappointed group these American
professional golfers are now that
Bobby Jones, Jr., has journeyed to
England to defend his British open
title!
You see. Bobby played sort Of
mean trick on the pros by announcing
early in the summer that he would
stay at home and mess around with
law books instead of journeying
abroad and shooting rounds of golf
in less than par.

"I'll go over and get that title and

Then came the American open and
Robert Tyre Jones, Jr., was among
those entered who didn't do SO very

Victory Over Mandan

BY 10 to 2 in Sluggish

Webster. MOhn Are Fea-
lures Of Mix Sunday Aft
ernOOn

1t didn't rain when Mandan played
Bismarck here yesterday, but there
was deluge-a deluge of runs, with
Mandan the recipient. The story:
Bismarck 10, Mandan =.
incidentally, it was one Of the most
long-drawn-out games of the season.
Bismarck had no trouble picking off
it's runs as it wanted them and
played an errorless game.
Newcomer brought in Mandan's
initial score, after singing and then
coming in on Dorfler's three-bagger.
The latter was put out as he tried to
steal home. Bismarck returned the
favor in the second, with Mohn sim
Cling, stealing two bases and then
coming home on Il steal as Webster
walked, stole one and came in on
.Fairchild's clout.
Third Is Lively
Mandan garnered it's last score in
the next inning, with Helbling walk
ing, stealing second and then coming
in on Newcomers two-bager. Bis
marck added one more as Simonson
singled, advanced two through Jones'
aid and then was scored by Mohn.
In the fourth, neither side accom-
plished much, with Fuller flying to
Arthur and with Paulson and Wade
son tanning Arthur and Helbling
famed and Ferderer went out at
first.
Plenty Happened
Bismarck gathered in three more
scores in the fifth, and in one Of
them brought forth the most sensa-
tiona play Of the day. Tobin sim
gled and Mohn and Webster scored
him. Mohn clouted two-bagger,
stole third and came home on Web
ster's clout as Helbling erred. Web
ster made a triple steal, as Mandan
vas wildly tossing the ball around,
to gain home and the crowds ap-
plause.
Four more scores came to Bis
marck in the sixth. Love scored one.
Another came to Fuller. The last
two, by Tobin and Simonson came
mainly as result Of Jones' two
Dagger.
From then on, the game slowed
down. Fuller and Wadeson famed,
in the seventh, and Love flied to
Owens. Writ, Tarbox and New
conner all went out at first The
eighth was marked by a double play,
p. Helbling to Ferderer to G. Helb-
ling, which resulted in the retire
ment Of Jones and SimonsOn. TObin
flied to Helbling. Dorfler was dis
posed Of by Mohn, Helbling went out
at first and Owens famed, to COM
plete this inning. 1t was just about
the same in the ninth.

Forecast For Ex-C Champ
By ALLAN J. GOULD
(Assocfated Press Snorts EdifaYl

NHDoUVb0SCO tcbB OPOkI0 EtUltWtI
New York, July ll.--(R)-It is a
peculiar twist of sports fortune that
within eight days, this week and
next, the ring will witness come
back fights by the two men who less
than year ago STOOD around the
heavyweight peak, one the champion
and the other considered q leading
menace, even if sidetracked.
1t would have taken the seventh
son of seventh son to have had the
holiness to predict in the summer Of
1926 that these two, Jack Dempsey
and Harry Wills, would fall from
their positions within q fortnight of
each other. as they did, and in an
other II months be striving to get
back into the picture, each trying to
sidestep the decline that comes with
age.
Wills to Meet Basque
Within few days after Gene
Tunney had dethroned the man he
had trailed in vain title hunt for
five years, Harry Wills was decisively
whipped by Jack Sharkey. Making
his first appearance in the ring since
that October night, the giant negro
battles the Bounding Basque. Pauline
Uzcudun, here Wednesday. On Thurs
day Of next week, the same Sharkey
that upset Wills will attempt to halt
the comeback Of Dempsey.
Fate seems to have cast the q
year old Sharkey for the role of a
Jack the Giant Killer" thong
there seems substantial reason to be-
lieve he will find the task of con-
quering the former champion more
difficult to accomplish than the job
of vanquishing Wills last fall.
There is this decided difference
however, in the present outlook for
Dempsey and Wills. The big negro

even should he defeat the younger,
more agile and stronger Spaniard,
has no prospect of coming back into
title cons ideration. After II years
in the ring, Wills, the experts agree,
has put his future behind him.
Dempsey Can Come Back
Dempsey. on the other hand, has a
return championship fight with
Tunney in prospect if he can defy
time, recover the accuracy of his old
devastating attack and whip the
youthful 'Sharkey.
The monopoly of heavywcights of
the fistic limelight this year has put
it's usual jinx on the ambitions of
the smaller fellows to figure in title
bouts, or, rather, it has dampencd
the enthusiasm Of promoters for
championship fights which would be
obscured by the focus Of interest
and attention of Dempsey, Tunnty,
ct al.
In the metropolitan sector only
the Dundee Latzo welterweight battle
has enlivened the smaller divisions
and it was far from financial sue
cess. Even the proposed Delaney
McTigue light heavyweight title tus-
sic, ordinarily an outdoor natural,
has failed to arouse the expected in
terest. 1t has beer postpontH a
month until August II.
A similar situation existed in 1923,
the last big boom year among the
heavyweights, when Luis Firpo was
making his spectacular advance to a
fight with Dempsey. That year, pro-
moters staged such notable engage
ments among the little fellows as
the Criqui-Kilbane, Dundee-Criqui,
Villa Wilde, Greb-Wilson and second
Leonard Tender bouts. but nearly all
suffered big financial losses. In
four title bouts in the lighter classes
at the Polo Grounds, promoters lost
more than 100000, but Tex Rick
ard stepped in with the Firpo-Demp-
sey climax in the same arena to
draw approximately $l,2O0,0OO from
a capacity crowd Of $4,000.
