SWIMMING CROWN
SOUGHT BY MANY
Array of Aspirants Would
Fill Place Vacated by
WeisSmuIIer.

BY the Associated Press.
n YEW YORK, March 28.--When
Johnny Weissmuller tossed
aside his tile as amateur ruler
/ of the waves by turning pro-
fessional a few weeks ago, he
fred up a merry rivalry among his
~Suld-be successors which promises to
keep the water in a continuous state OF
agftated whitecaps at the national in
door swimming championships here be-
ginning Tuesday.
East. Far West and Middle West each
have their star contenders entered for
the big splash, and while it may be
many moon before another Weiss
muller comes along, such speedy
thrashers as George Kojac of New York,
Austin Clapp of Stanford University and
Walter Laufer of Chicago should put
up boiling battle for the vacant free
style throne.
The odds are all against any one
swimmer duplicating Weissmullers feat
of year ago and winning the free
style features at 100, 220 and 500 yards,
although a couple of them are opti-
mistic enough to try 1t, the entries an
nounced at the A. A. U. Office show
Laufer, the Lake Shore A. G. flash
who was runner-up to Weissmuller at
100 and 220 yards last year and looms
as one of the likeliest of the pretenders
for the throne, is after the 100, 220 and
500 yard free-style crowns, the 150-
yard backstroke and 300-yard medley.
in the last two events Of which he Is
the present champion.
Walter Spence Of Philadelphia, I'M
attached, who swan on Canada s
Olympic team at Amsterdam, likewise
is entered in the three free-style events
also the 220-yard breaststroke, in which
he Is champion, and the medley.
Kojac, who was unable to win title
last year, Is out for the 100 and 22O
free-Style and the backstorek. while
clapp, who knocked off the fastest 200
meter leg on the American 800-meter
relay team that set new Olympic
record at Amsterdam, will cleave the
water In the 220, 500 and medley.
In addition to these stars, Yale's East
ern intercollegiate champion team, led
by the rangy Rowland, is entered intact,
while the University of Iowa is repre-
sented by Boyd N. Liddle, booked for
the 900, 500 and medley. Stanfords
lone entry, Clapp; Johnny Bryant, Dart
mouth sprinter, and Joe Wohl, Syracuse
backstroker, are the other collegians en-
tered.
The Illinois A. c., which won the team
championship last year, has entered a
water polo team only, its swimming
forces having been ruined by the loss
of Weissmuller.

Dempsey Has Big Job to Earn
$4,000 Pay for Fugazy-Cole

vACK DEMPSEY has thrown in
his lot with Humbert Fugazy and
Ed Cole for the next three years
~ and Jack viii try to prove that
he is worth the reported $50, 900
a year he is to receive for lending ms
name to the Fugazy-Cole combine.
Madison Square Garden CorpoIs-
ton seemed to have the inside track
on Jacks services, but the $4,000
Rickard is supposed to have received
for his services did not meet Dempsey's
idea of his worth, and he slipped over
to the rivals of the garden corporation.
Dempsey has one success to MS
credit. the Miami Beach Jack SharKey-
Young Stribling fight. This bout went
away and above the high-water marx
as to its worth and 1t is generally agreed
that the bout was not worth $1,000
and would not have drawn that mucn
If 1t was held in New York; Miami
and the fact that it did pay such an
enormous sum Is proof enough that
Florida can pay fer high-clasS at
traction each year.
But is Dempsey worth $4,000 and
percentage of the gate receipts? Com
petent authorities of promoters value
say he is not. If Tex Richard, supreme
in the promotion field, was only worth
$4,000, then Dempsey is not worth
what he is paying.
Dempsey is popular figure as a
fighter and not as promoter. Just
what ability he has as a matchmaker
can be seen in the money he is paying
for championship tilt between Sammy
Mandell and Ray Miller.
Dempsey is paying Mandell 800, 900
and Miller is to receive $4,000. Last
Summer Mandell and McLarnin barely
drew this sum, and it stands to reason
that McLarnin is better card in this
/ city than Miller was. Jimmy was the
ranking challenger for the lightweight
title by reason of his one-round knock
out over Sid I'erris. His punching
power made him an outstanding attrac-
ton from the spectators viewpoint.
Then how Is Miller going to attract
more to the gate than McLarnin did?
Detroit may like Ray better than New
York did McLarnin. and that probably
is what Dempsey is figuring on. But
