BIG BATTLES
Garden Will Put On Annual
Heavyweight Fight For
Next Five Years

MIAMI, Fla, March 1.1(P-The
turnstilee will click for at least five
more winters underneath the palm
trees, by the terms OF a new agree
ment between the Miami city COM
mission and the Madison Square
Garden corporation, calling for an
annual heavyweight feature bout to
be staged here over the period III
Guiding 1930-34.
Negotiations, carried on by Will
liam F. Carey for the Garden COR
poration with the Miami city CON-
mission, were completed yesterday.
The agreement means further full
fillment Of the dreams OF Tex Rick
ard, who not only laid the ground
work for the Sharkey-Stribling bat
tie. but revealed before his death
definite plans to establish a per-
manent winter fight headquarters
in this section.
Jack Dempsey's name was not
mentioned in the announcement Of
the agreement, but it is believed the
former champion will be induced
to support the forthcoming annual
southern fistic features.
Miami Beach, scene Of the Sher-
key-Stribling fight, offered no coun-
ter bid for future bouts, as a con-
sequence Of local objections to eth
er retaining the FlamingO Park
arena or building another in that
city next winter.

FRENCH WAR HERO NIPS
Il

His skull kept intact by silver
plates and his body bearing marks
Of half a dozen wounds, Eugene
Criqui, French war hero, craWled
into a New York ring June 2. 1923,
and administered a tasty beating to
Johnny Kilbane, world feather
wight champion.
Before the fight Criqui vas far
from being popular. The wise guys
laughed at the War-Worn battler
and predicted e swift and sure
knockout win for Kilbane, consid-
cred one Of the greatest OF cham
pions at the weight.
The fight was almost a farce, all
right, but the other way around,
Kilbane, having been absent from
the ring for a long time. vas al
most a setup for the fighting little
Frenchman.
For the first few rounds kilbane
stood UP against Criqui'S attacks,
And then the champion began to
fade. His showing became Sc
wretched that all spectators knew
his time was up.
Criqui was anything but a dyna-
mic, savage fighter, yet his attack
was too strong for Kilbane, who
had defended his title only twice
in two years. In the sixth round
Johnny Crubpled up and passed
out of the picture.
The new champ held his title but
a few weeks. when he lost it on
points to Johnny Dundee. The sec
ond bout, which was also held in
New York, drew S134,000.

JACK DEMPSEY !
MOST POTENT
RING FIGURE
BY ALAN y. GOULD
ASSOCIATED Press Sports Editor.

MIAMI BEACH, Fla, Mar. LTD
The main mystery in the boxing
business, if not the success Of the
whole heavyweight program for
1929, still revolves around the dy-
manic figure Of the Jack Dempsey.
The fight crowd that came here
for the big show left apparently
more interested in whether Demp-
sey will fight again this year, than
in what will happen next to either
Of the principals Of the melodrama
Of Miami Beach.
Dempsey would like to fight once
more; first. because he loves the
cutting game; second, because it
would afford him a chance to re-
gain heavy weight championship
recognition and retire at least
100000 richer. Jack admits all this.
The reasons are potent in favor of a
comeback but 1t is a question
whether they will be sufficient.
Il don't know, honestly, what 7
will do" he said. I've been turn
ing things over in my mind, OF
course It's hard to keep away from
the game. But you know, I'm no
spring chicken any more"
If Dempsey does not return to the
ring, it is entirely conceivable that
the final test for number rank
ing position among the heavy
weights for 1929 may involve two
foreign sluggers-Max Schmeling OF
Germany, who punched his way to
fame with a knockout victory over
Johnny Risko, and the acrobatic
basque, Pauline Uzcudun.
Pauline is confident he can take
Sharkey if they meet, as appears /,
likely, at the Yankee Stadium in
June. Schmeling has passed all
tests with honOrs so far. A Pauline
Schmeling match would lack Moth
ing in color and interest.

foreign boxers had come to Amer

me as just another one Of those
foreign fellows.
So 1 said nothing but went to a
surgeon. who treated my hand and
eventually made it as good as the

Bulow began to haunt the office

Finally Thomas McArdle, the Gar
