MULLEN-FUCAW
ALLIANCE HOPES
TO GET RICHARD
New York and Chicago
Promoters Seeking To
Break Monopoly
By FRANK GETTY
Omitted Press Sports Editor

NEW YORK, March e6.-The
challenge of Messrs. Mullen and
Fugazy to the supremacy of Tex
Rickard in the higher flights of
cauliflowcrdom has 50 disturbed the
latter that he is understood to have
taken seven puts on the seventh
green of his favoritc Florida golf
course when the news reached him.
Six puts ordinarily constitute Rick
ard s quota, once he has reached
any given green.
Jim Mullen has been trying for
years to get Tex goat in Chicago
while Humbert j. Fugazy has
sought vainly the elusive angora in
this city.
Their idea that by Joining forces
they can run Rickard out of bust
ness is an example of paramount
optimism rather than logic.
AS long as Gene Tunney plays
ball with him Tex has nothing to
worry about. And as long as the
heavyweight champion retains his
affection to spot cash money in
large quantities, that kind of ball
PLAYING is in order.
1t undoubtedly will be a good
thing for boxing as a sport if
Richards monopoly could be brok
en-. But boxing as a sport and box
ing as a business are two different
things. As a business man Tex con-
tinucs to outrank the field.
The summoning from Cleveland
Of Danny Dunn, manager of Johnny
Risko may mean real action i'll the
heavyweight situation today.
jess McMahon, Rickard s match
maker, after an earnest long dis
tance telephone talk with his boss,
called up a few wrong numbers in
Cleveland and finally located Dan
ny, who was instructed to report in
Ncw York forthwith.
This may be the golden summons
for which half a dozen boxers and
their managers have been listening
attentivcly the past few days. 1t
may mean that johnny Risko is
chosen to meet Tunney i'll July.
Then again it may not.

BRADENTOWN, Fla, March
2G.-The Boston Red Sox are not
going to be the football of the Am
crican League this season, if Bill
Carrigan can help it and he thinks
lie can.
The Red Sox manager, recalled
from retirement in 1927 to make
over the ball club he once piloted
to world IS championship has no pre-
dilcction for optimism when it
comes to talking about baseball.
But he does maintain that his team
is not going to finish in the cellar,
as it did last season.
owe are immeasurably stronger
than we were last year, Carrigan
told the United Press. 'There Will
be more punch in the Red Sox line
up this season.
"Fred Hoffman is good steady
catcher with plenty Of experience.
Phil Todt and Russell Rollings can
take care of first base in good
style. Buddv Myer, Jack Roth
rock and Bill Regan may not be
the best infield in the world but
they certainly are not the worst in
the league.
"Ken Williams is going to
strengthen our outfield, where we III
also have Denny Williams, Flag
stead and Doug Tait.''
Carrigan believes the Red Sox
pitching, not highly rated general
~, will surprise the experts.
