At any rate the trouble with
Tickard is not by any means new.
II goes back To the first Dempsey

into details. it is only worth mention
ing that Gene was the loser to the

tract he was compelled TO sign at the
last minute.

held in the big city, but when the
boxing fathers chased the match INTO

Tunny drove a smart bargain with
Rickard previous to the second Demp-
sew fight. lie more than made up
what he had lost in Philadelphia.
Tunney fiirted with Humbert FuSa3y
and really wanted to sign with HIM.
Tex boosted Fugazy's figures from
Ss50,O00 to a fiat $l,000,0O0 guarantee.
The champion figured he owed
Rickard something for steering hlm
into the titular match, and as long
as he was willing TO raise the figure
Riekard was entitled to the match.
Not Dumb Champion.
Tunney is not like the champions of
the past--that is, he does not permit
his manager to take care of all the
business arrangements. Gene Is more
than a fgurehead or punching bag
The trite saying. Let me take care OF
the business and you do the lighting,

of Dudley Field Malone, an interna-

recognition.

too prominently identified with Jack
Dempsey's handling to suit Gene.
When Dempsey came East to train
for the Jack Sharkey fight the news
was broadcast that Richard would ap-
point Leo P. Flynn to supervise Demp-
sey's training. Nothing much was
thought of this move at the time. But
when Flynn began to assert his au-
thority and was on the verge OF being
ousted as major domo of the training
camp. word went out that Flynn was
backed by Rickard. This silenced any
talk of Leo receiving his walking pa
pers.

Tunney thus has reason for the be-

Dempsey than the promoter of fight

nopoly of the skilled and prom

monopoly is charged to major league
club. of which a few exhibit greater
"hocsing" tendencies than others in
tyinc up the supply of good players.
The advisory council has suddenly
come 10 life and struck several telling
blows at some of the evils in base ball.
The smash at the player trust was
delivered this week in Chicago when
the advisory council drafted an amend

places the limit of players unler con-
troll by any one club at 80.
This proposed amendment, along
with II others, will come up before the

some quarters of the majors and with
gleeful chucklings among most of the
minor leagues.
The advisory council, ii may be OBJ
served, now is functioning properly
for the first time in many moons, as
a direct result of the retirement of
Ban Johnson from base ball. Com
missioner Landis completely ignored
the existence of the council when
Johnson was president of the Ameri-
can League. With the selection of
Ernest S. Barnard of Cleveland as
Johnson's successor, the council has
been revived. Judge Lands, Barnard
and John A. Heydler. president of the
National League, comprise the new
advisory council.
Should Reduce Limit.
There is only one fault to find with
the proposal to limit a clubs holdings
to 40 players. The total should have
been placed at 80. There is nceasing
complaint from the minors and from
jor teams, as well over the short
age of good players. The overhead
of base ball has been expanded be-

able to get players by spending huge
