MATTER oF MoNEY

MATTER OF MONEY
Before the baseball boys get going
south there will be some space avail
able in the public prints for little
official information about the heavy
weight box fighting situation, it there
is any. .e
Tex Rickard, i'll his well known
way, will discover some sort of a
situation and he Will attend eff
GENTLY to the process OF getting the
aforesaid situation in form for public
consumption.
Outside OF the Sharkey, Heeney,
Dempsey and what have you angles,
there is real situation facing
Rickard on February /, when, by
the terms OF the contract that Gene
1unney declares has no equity, Rick
ard must lay 100000 on the line
to assure the champion for the second
time that he is not fooling. His
first act to prove his sincerity cost
him another 100000.
You would think that a contract
which would bring in 100000 months
and months before the date set
for the fighter or even before the
other fighter or the place had been
named would have been highly
pleasing TO the young financier hold
ing the title.
But Tunney complains that the
contract has him tied up SO that he
can't refuse to play ball with Rickard
while, on the other hand, ii Rickard
wants to crawl out the contract
permits him to do SO and Tunney
will have to pay back the advance
dough.
TUNNEY REALLY SORE
Perhaps that contract lacks the
equity that civil courts have been
known to demand when two parties
enter into an agreement. If this
is SO, it may turn out to be too
bad that Gene didn't know 1t or
realize it when he signed the con-
tract.
This contract and the arguments
over it have caused some pictures
tc be painted of Tunney and the
boss from the big house on Eighth
avenue making faces at each other
A0OAAC u C4AC bJOyo C41Ao DlCOulC
to be phoney drawn for the purpose
of that very necessary old ballyhoo
But we have the best of reasons
for saying that Tunney is very serious
in his differences with Rickard and
ii he can get out of that contract
he will do it. He doesn't come
naturally into the ballyhoo stuff as
Kearns and Dempsey did.
Rickard has made date to play
some golf with Tunney in Florida
and it's a cinch that they won't
spend their time on the course fra1n-
ing up a story to tell the newspaper
boys. Rickard knows that Tunney
is ready to talk turkey on February
1 and he wants to have at least q
preliminary conversation before they
start firing.
GENES IDEA RULES
1t is rather significant that Rickard
had TO alter plans he had made to
provide space on the summer calendar
for two big shots. He has insisted
for years that one year was big
enough for only one shot and no
fighter ever forced him to change

JACK DELANEY SCORES
 TECHNICAL KNOCKOUT
Former Light Hcavyw eight C.mm- p,os, stops NaIAIO Tassi in Eies- enth Round of Bout.

New York, Sept 2l tP)-Jack De- laney, one. the colorful "Rapier of the North" has come back-but not as far as he has gone back. Rcturn- ing to the ring at Ebb"ts Field last night for his first fight since he WAS knocked out by Jack Sharkey last April, Delaney scored an unlmprcs- sive technical knockout over Nando Tassi of Italy in II rounds.
 For nine rounds it looked as If the battle would go the full l5 frames, with Delaney the winner on uojpts. In the 10th the Bridgeport boxer landed a furry of lefts on the Italians face and inflicted the flrs' rcal damage of the bout.
 After 25 seconds of the llth had passed Referee Eddie forbes stepped in 10 save Tassi from fur ther punishment
 Although Tassi fought Samely and attempted 10 carry the battle 10 ms opponent, Delaney was easily 'he master and looked bad principally because he could not end the bout sooner. Tassi went down three tunes, slipping twice and once, Tn the llrs' round, half slipping and half beaten down. he took a count of eight that time and came up undamased.
 Both fighters came into the flhb over the light heavyweight hmit, Delaney weighing 1S1 pounds ana Tassi 1.s.

KENSING7ON WILL
 BATTLE FALCONS
Teams to Engage in First Game
 of Title Series Sunday

Battling it out in the first game of a series which is tended to show the final and undisputed baseball championship team of the city. the kcnsington and Falcon teams will fly at each others throats next Sunday afternoon at St. Marys Field.
 No more bitter diamond rivals than these two have ever been de- veloped in this city and every inch of the way will be fought out as the teams cross bats. kensington hound- ed the Falcons into playing the Ser les and the south end team will have to make good all its boasts if it is to retain the confidence of the baseball public.
 Along the street the outcome Of the first game is about as uncertain as the election of Smith or Hoover. Some favor the Falcons while others can see nothing but kensington. Comparing the teams can bring no other thought than that the both teams are about as evenly matched as any two such combinations could be.
 With both teams equipped with excellent pitching staffs, neither has an edge in this respect. kenslng- ton has Coke" Woodman of the Hartford Eastern League team and Scriminger who beat Taftville re- gently while the Falcons have Lefty" Atwood, former Eastern Leaguer and Nichols, another league star.
 If the series of past years is te be taken as any criterion. the Ken sington team should be given the edge over the Falcons for no other reason than the Indian Sign which the south enders have always seemed to hold over the local aggre- gation. Time and time again the Falcons have been on the thresh- hold of a city championship only tt have their hopes dashed by the wild woolly crew from Kensington. Through an oversight in the pub lication of the roster Of the teams the name of Paul Snyder was Jeff out of the Kensington list He ha: been regular member of the tean all season and will most certalnl, play in the coming series
 The contest Sunday will star promptly at 3 o'clock.

 In the first sixteen, T. $. Hart succeeded in downing H. $. Humph- rey by the score of 5-4. Ted. after a rather mediocre start on the first two holes, finished the lower nine in excellent shape. playing par golf. If he can keep up this play against w. J. Sweeney, the club champion of two years ago, Bill will have to extend himself to the limit to stay in the tournament.
 Clarence Barnes, using consist ent stroke, overcame and defeated J. H. Kirlsham, and 1.
 0. E. Swift won over Stanley Hart by default but taking on D. K. Man. | ming in second round matcH, hc lost out and was eliminated from further play.

 ST0NEWALLS OF H0LY0KE
Locals Go Through Stiff Workout In Preparation for Opening Game-Buckley Shows More Speed Than Ever-Visitors to Have Impressive Eleven Here
 Held Hartford Blues to Scoreless Tie Last Season Plenty of Interest Shown by Fans

Following q stiff workout last night at Willow Brook park, the Nutmeg A. c. football team ts prim- ed for its first battle Of the season which takes place Sunday after noon at Willow Brook park. he team was put through signal dftil under the supervision of Coach Grafton O'Connell last night and the workout was impressive
 With every practice. Buckley shows more and more speed. Great things are expected of the Msrtden boy who starred for four consccu- tive years at Fordham University. BIckley kicks hard. he runs like . flash and he has stamina enough to buck the toughest line for gains. He will be used either at quarter or haifback.
 Evidently the starting team on next Sunday will find O'Connell ;--d "Unk" Coniey at the ends. Wer- wais and Conklin, the two giants of the team will be at the tackles while the two 200 pound babies of the line, Jumbo" Gnasdow and Tom Humphreys, will take the place at guard. Captain Red" O'Neil and Joe Rogers. a former captain of the All-New Britain team, alternated at center.
 Pigeon" Conley. Vic Radzcvich and Buckley with number of others, worked out in the backfie'd. Buckley can play quarter. 70 eao Radzevich and so can Conley 50 that the team will not lack eftB. cient men for calling the. signals. "silent John" Davis and Hap" Griswold will alternate at the full. back position. the latter beirg groomcd as the drop-kicker of tio | squad.
 The Holyoke eleven has sent down an impressive lineup from which the team to oppose the Nut megs Sunday, will be picked. The crew will be practically the same ao the one that opposed the All-New Britain team two years ago. ana which held the Hartford Blues to . scoreless tie last season.
 Interest in the opening game in- creases with every passing day and there is no doubt in anyone's mind but that there will be sizea ble crowd on hand when the game starts. The contest is scheduled to get under way not later than 2:30 o'clock.
 Manager Henry Zehrer is being deluged with offers for games from all over the state and from teams in various other places. He is going to try as much as possible to keep Connecticut teams on the schedule.
