Dempsey Gets Heavy Tonight
STR|BL|NG TO RUN,
NOT FLY, AT CAMP
Road Work, Not Aviation, to
Be Pursued-Sharkey Has
Date at Tampa.

BY the Associated Press.
n Ar IAMI BEACH, Fla, February 5.
M Young Stribling does not
N expect to fly today. nor to-
4 4 morrow, nor any other day
until he has kept his February
81 fistic engagement with Jack Sharkey
in Flamingo Arena.
Promoter Jack Dempsey is deter
mined that flying shall have no place
on the conditioning program OF the
Macon boxer-aviator. He is so deter
mined that he has stopped asking the
Georgian to stay on the ground, and
has filed Injunction proceedings to keep
Stribling out of the air.
Young Stribling purchased an air
plane several years ago, and has hopped
about the country in it for his various
matches.
Stribling today was prepared for his
usual 212 miles of road work, while his
opponent expected to put in a hard
round of posing for camera men.
Sharkey has been invited to go
through an exhibition with his Sparring
partners in Tampa Friday. night and
Dempsey may accompany him to the
west coast city.
The managers battle over the referees
began yesterday Dempsey has advised
Pa Stribling and Johnny Buckley, man
ayers of the principals, that if no Selec-
ton has been made week before the
fight he will choose the referee himself.
Among those already mentioned for
the job are Dave Miller and Walter
Eckersall, Chicago; Ed Dickerson. Grand
Rapids, Mich; Tom Reilly, Philadel-
phia; Lou Magnolia and Jack O'Sul-
Ivan, New York; Max Hinkle, Cleve-
land Slim McClelland, Detroit, and two
unnamed Massachusetts, referees.

A dour old Scot, famed for his
putting, once turned to another who
was sinking them from all parts Of
the green in a money putting match
and remarked, IF We had tae keep
a wife an six BARNS We widua putt
like that" This pretty we'll ex-
presses the reason why so many of
us fall down on the greens. Pres
sure of one kind or another ruins
our putting stroke.
Take Chick Evans, as an exam
pie. Chick has gone through every
stage in the putting game-change
of form, change of clubs, change of
grip. He has been known in the
past TO use three different putters
in a round. Not until Chick hit
upon his center-shafted contraption
did he find his game on the green's.
Bobby Jones had somewhat the
same experience in arriving at his
present form. He admits that it is
his style now, but that it may some
day be changed In short, there Is
little in common among putters.
Farrell and Voight, excellent putters,
use aluminium heads; Jones, Ouimet
aud Hagen iron heads. Abroad,
Mitchell uses an aluminium head,
but Duncan likes a cleek putter.

A man named Jones was re- ported to have been taken i'll suddenly in the hills back of Kanatak and was later found dead by residents of the town who went out to bring him in. Nothing definite was learned concerning the circumstances except that an Indian arrived at Kanatak recently and in- formed people that he had seen a white man going about in a circle up in the hills and that he was afraid to talk to him, but hurried on to the vii. lage. A party was formed and later discovered Jones' body. It was not learned what caused his death but, judging from the boys story, it is quite possible that Jones may have become snowblind and tramped the country in a helpless condition until exhaustion and starvation came. His pack was still on his back when the body was found.
