MIAMI BEACH, Fla, Feb. IL
The success of the Sharkey- Strib-
ling fight from a financial viewpoint
"a success now assured beyond any
further doubt-means something of
even greater Importance to the
world of sport, the permanent re-
tirement of. Jack Dempsey as a
fighting man.
The former champion never will
enter the ring again.
Dempsey has made his mark as a
promoter and his next job will be
in that capacity for the Madison
Square Garden Corporation.
The amazing development of
Dempsey has no parallel in the an
nails of sport. It is a far cry from
the hobo who had his first view of
the east from beneath freight car
to the energetic, polished business
man who is the center of interest
at Miami Beach.
Until the success of the present
venture was assured, the eX-cham-
pion's furture was in doubt: If he
hadn't measured up to the exacting
specifications of his task here,
Dempsey might have been driven
back to the ring, probably to be
beaten by some younger man.

Dempsey Says Good-By to Ring as
He Sees Success of Florida Fight
lack to Be in Demand as Promoter Hereafter, GETTY
Declares Wins Respect in Business Role.

Jacks biggest fight was the one
he waged to establish himself here,
and he won it. Perhaps he won be-
cause he was in this fight with
heart and soul, but with another
than himself in mind. Tex Rickard
was Jacks inspiration He was
fighting for Tex and won for him
self.
To those who knew Jack Dempsey
in his fighting days, when his COM
panionS were the parasites of pugil-
ism, the spectacle of Dempsey, the
promoter, is a constant source of
Wonderment.
The millionaires who are working
and playing with the eX-champion
here, their wives who are vying for
his attendance at their social af-
fairs, are not impressed by his for
mer prestige in the ring. They re-
spect a new Dempsey-not the one
the crowd followed.
There will be quite a little COM
petition for Jacks services when
this Sharkey- Stribling fight is over,
and the competition will be of a
sort in which the promoters who
want Jack to fight for them will not
even figure.
And so the prize ring is to lose
its most colorful figure of modern
times. Dempsey is going On to bigger
things.

Revised Lineup to Take Field for
Boston Red Sox When Season Opens
BeanoWn'S American LeaguerS BoStered by Bill Carrl-
gan in Effort to Get Out of Cellar.

third baseman, to Washington in
exchange for Pitcher Milton Gas
ton, Pitcher Horace Lisenbee, In
flelders Robert Reeves and Grant
ellis and Outfielder Elliott Bigelow.
The biggest deal made by the
Gus others culled by every known
method should bolster the Sox in
their efforts to get out of the cellar.
Six Regular HurIers
The pitching staff looks rather
shaky. Six men are counted as regu-
lars, Ed Morris, Charley Ruf1ng,
Jack Russell, Danny MacFayden,
Pat Simmons and NIiIt Castor, all
right-handers. Lisenbee, a south
paw who won eight and lost six for
Minneapolis, should prove to be a
winner if he regainS his 1927 form.
Three new catchers have been
added to Charley Berry and John
HeVing. They are Alex CASTOR, for
mer major Lacquer, who batted PTS
for st. Paul; Bobby Asbjornson, who
batted 1923 for Akron, and Eddie
Connolly, who batted 279 for Pitts
field.
InfieId Strengthened
The ir1f1eld is uncertain, but the
wealth of material should help to
strengthen it. Phil Todt is regarded
as a certainty at first. Bill Regain
will have to battle with Bob Bar
rett and Jerry Standaert for Sec
ond. Barrett batted $40 for Buff
falo last season and Standaert bat
ted 1853 for Memphis.
Wally Gerber, veteran ShortStop,
will have competition from ellis,
Reeves and Hal Rhyme, formerly
with Pittsburgh, for his position.
Rhyme batted $40 for San Fran
cisco last season, and was purchased
from the Athletics after he had been
drafted.
Standaert and Reeves may be
shifted to third to fight it out for
that place. A guess at the inf1eld
would place Todt at first, Regain at
second, Rhyme or ellis at short, and
Reeves at third.
HAS GISlt OutleAueTS
Carrigan has eight outfielders, in
GLIDING last years regulars, Ken
Williams, Ira Flagstaff, Doug Taitt
and Jack Rothrock. The new men
are Bill Scarritt, who batted 1854 for
st. Paul; BigeloW, who batted 1895
for Birmingham; Otto Dumas, who
batted .343 for Mobile, and George
Loepp, who batted 300 for Pitts
field. Scarritt and Bigelow look like
real finds. The Red Sox's probable
roster will include:
Catchers-Berry, Heving and Alex Gas
ton.
Pitchers-Moris, MacFayden, Ruling,
Russell, Milt CASTOR, Lisenbee, Bayne.
Simmons, Durham, Fray.
