If the Dompsey- -I~‘lrpo bout should
go through l-‘irpo will need all his
claim to the name of "wild bull. " It
will be the case of the "bull" being
led to the siaurhtcr house. He has
the strength to prove a formidable
opponent. but lacks the skill to give
the champ a hard workout. Ills
only chance to beat Dempsey will
be a lucky swing for a kayo. Even
that. touted right hand of the Argen-
tinian's seems to have come from
watered stock.

in his bout here tonight he kept
his arms failing like the windmill’ of

"Don Quixote" and was lucky
enough to connect.

The fans in this town came to the

been originally intended to «tart. the
preliminary practice on Labor Day
Monday. September 3. but at the in-
stance of Coach John Heisman the
date was moved up to Saturday. and
every man was informed.that on the
afternoon of that day a regular
practice would be held and every
man who expected to try for the
team should be on hand. Heisman
will be here in about two weeks and
begin to familiarize himself with
local conditions and to get. every de-
tail in shape for the arrival of the
candidates.

Capt. Weidcrqulst returned a
month ahead of the vanguard of
players to put in about three weeks
of intensive study. with a view to
removing an inconsequential "eon-
dltion" in French. which out of the
way will leave him without a. schol~
astic encumbrance when the flat
work starts. Practically every other
man of last year's outtl is free from
deficiency. which men s that the
coaches will not have to worry about
the scholastic standing of any when
once the season gets under way.

in; sensation in the middleweight di-
vision. Delaney resembles Stanley
Kctchel in looks. speed. hitting pow-
er and general love of a light. In

title aspirations of half a dozen lead-
ing contenders. He has won ref-
eree's decisions over Lou Bogash.

Frankie Fleming. Delaney is a eta-
blemate of Wilson's and is training
