NOOpyElSnJ. 1875 Dy ~
L always took chance" Tex
Rickard said one time in discussing
his checkered career.
IThiS was true not only of his box
ing promotion, but of his business
ventures. 1t was known by almost
every one along Broadway that Tex
was a sucker" for get-rich-quick
schemes, inventions and wild gam
bleS.
The chances he took in staging his
first two boxing matches, the Cans
Nelson bout at Goldfleld in 1906 and
the Johnson-J effrieS bout at Reno in
1910, were nothing as compared to
some of the risks he assumed in
later life.
Switches From Boxing
With the successful promotion of
the Johnson Jeffries bout, it would
have seemed Richard definitely was
launched on his career as a boxing
promoter. Rickard, however. chose
another field and was absent from
the fight game for more than five
years from 1910 to 1915.
After the Johnson-JeffrieS fight
Richard was criticised for promot-
ing a heavyweight championship
bout between white man and a
Negro. Race riots broke out in
many large cities. 1t is understood
Richard took this to heart and
vowed never again to promote
mixed bout for the heavyweight
championship.
Richards stand of mixed heavy
weight title bouts enabled Gene
Tunney to get his chance at Jack
Dempsey and win the champion
ship. Richard selected Philadelphia
over New York as the site for the
first Dempsey-T unney bout rather
than accede to the demands of the
New York state athletic commission
and match Harry Wills. the Negro
contender. as the challenger In
place of Tunney.

himself as "a coach of balanced
offensive IDEAS"
Sam explained his theories with
these words:
"If we should find an outstanding
star among our candidates next TALL,
the football system will be bent, II
necessary, to take advantage OF this
young mans abilities.
cor, if we should have a powerful
line plunger, we will shift our plans
to make a place for him"
Asked if his assistants will have
q, voice in the direction of his team,
Sam said:
"Most certainly In naming my
aids I hope to have men who will be
capable of making decisions and
who already have had to make de-
cisions, either for the better or Tor
the worse. A united idea among the
coaches goes long way toward
success and I hope to have such a
unit next fall"

TALKING
IT OVER
WITH JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, Jan. 17.-Tex Rick
~ ard knew as early as last
February that Gene Tunney was
planning to quit the ring. This IN
itself, didn't cause hirn any great
concern. His enthusiasm. for Tun-
ney as ring man never reacneo
ranturous heights. Richard liked
the hitters. and Tunney wasn't a
hitter.
But Richard didn't want to see
Tunney retire until a third meet
ing with Dempsey had been ar
ranged. 1t was his feeling that
the marine and the mauler, bat

With all the ingredients necessary

MIR. BUCKY HARRIS, the new

Stone, left field; Harry Rice, center

most. In recent years Mr.. Fother-

This may account for the fact
that he will toast the timbers for

Mr.. Fothergill is a gentleman who
