Picks Strib'ing for Heavyweight
Crown; Says MandeII Is
Apparently Safe

New York, Dec. 29.-(P-Tex Rick
ard, in his annual signed boxing
forecast for the New York Evening
World today. doubts whether Jack
Dempsey will attempt come-baee.
and puts his finger OH w. L. (Young)
Stribling as the most likely successor

that new champions will be crowned

BILE exception Of the lightweight class,
where he regards Sammy Mandell as

Tunncy Was Safe
Richards analysis of the heavy
weight situation is particularly inter-
esting. coming on top of this definite
announcement of the match between
two OF the foremost contenders, Jack
Sharkey and Young Stribling. for

moter a year ago predicted Gene
Tunney would successfully defend his
title against any rival and he re-
marks in his latest survey that il the
champion had not retired "he would
be the only one whose honors would
seem absolutely safe to me-"
Despite his illtimation to the con-
trary in Miami Beach yesterday,
Richard says in the World:
There probably will be no come
back by Jack Dempsey. I would like
to see him climb through the ropes
again but any one who is trying to
create the impression that Jack Is
certain to make another bid for the
title is talking without any basis OF
facts.

hopes to turn out recognized heavy
