past the champion sprinter with ri-

possible that if St. James had not

the elimination of Sarazen from the

The East Ends opened their sea-

with a 11-3 victory over the str‘orig
team of that place.
\Varm had the Noroton team at
his mercy throughout the game and
deserved a. shutout. He held his op-
ponents to six hits and struck- out
10 men, while the opposing pitcher
allowed 1 3hits and sent 10 of the
East Norwalk boys down by :way of
the strikeout route.
The batting honors of the game
went to "Chick” Buschbaum, who
swatted out three two-beggars.
The trip to Noroton was ~rK§.de
without "Eddie" Prince,- McGuin-
ncss and Blackman, 'who will be in"
the lineup next Sunday. .

Cooper has already arrived at the
track with his speed creation. a \l\'-

In the days of yesteryear—when
Johnny Alike-n, Gill Anderson. 'l‘onl
Rooney, Dadio Resin. and Barney
Oldfield were the stars in automo-
bile racing's electric lights—Cooper
was a star of the first water.
He was a first placer in the siz—
zling road races as Well as on spe-
cially constructed speedways. Then
he went into retirement and it‘low-
ed the'rnore prosaic existance of a
business man on the Pacific Coast.
Suddenly he announced his return
to the track. That was two years
ago. He jumped into Joe Thomas'
car the day of the Fresno, Cal, race
after Thomas was striken with ap-
pendicits and had to submit to s
trackside operation.

Cooper is of the studious. mt\ha-

STAMFORD GAME

The Stamford-Norwalk ‘hlgh
school baseball game, which was
scheduled to be held, in the Lock
City on Saturday was cancelled bc-
causc of a muddy field. No date
has yet bccn arranged for the post-
poned contest.
The locals were all set for this
game and if old Jupiter Pluvlus had
not exerted his malign influences
they might have made it their sec-
ond win of the season.
The next. game on the Green and

port Trade school tcam which will
be played at Amusement Park on
Tuesday. Norman I’lewwellin will
most‘probably be on the mound for
the Green group.
It is probable that the Stamford
match may be played on Thursday.
Coach Fcrrol B. Green of the West

this morning that he is now nego-
tiating with Coach Michael A. Boyle
for this date.

DEMPSEY MUCH CONCERNEDl
MUS-MADDEN" BOUT D .
His Brother Will Cover
Knockout — 20,000
Jack Dempsey is much concerned
in Hum Wills’s fifteen round bout
with Bartley Madden at the new
Queensboro stadium to night. Proof
of this was shown when he wired
his brother Johhny who is in New
York to be present at the ring side
tomorrow and view very closely ev-
ery move of the Black Panther, and
report everything back to him.
Johnny got the telegram order
too late to go and see how Wills
shaped up in his training quarters
at Billy Grupp's gymnasium. and so
secured tickets to get the close-up
when the dark man meets the Irish
champion.
That's evidence of the respect in
which the world's champion holds
Wills. and that he wants to know
what he must expect when he moms
him in the proposed championship
bOIK on Sept. 6. Incidentally. Johnny
Dempsey says his brother told him
he was now doing light training and
would be prepared to step into the
heavy work when called upon to do
so.
Probably no man could be secur-
ed tr make Wills extend himself
more fully than Madden, who in
point of size and general measure-l
meats figures close to the champion ,
himself. How Wills will handle the
Irishman will give the 20,000 who

Against Negro — Says He Will ll“
will see the bout in the magnificant
stadium of the Queensboro the op-'

measure up with the champion. That!
has been an incentive to increase
the interest in the coming bout al-l
though,the match in itself calls for4
as hard a battle as any rxlzltt‘hmakerl
could make. l

Says Bartlsy Madden:
I have knocked more big six-foot-
ers in the game than any other
fighter and I expect to do the same
with Harry Wills tonight. Joe Jean~
otte was stopped by me in four
rounds and I consider him a better
man than Wills ever was or will be
hm better today than the night I
beat Jeanette and for that reason
, . =11 will knock out Wills be-
' _‘tenth round is ended. Rest
, -_ that if any fighter hits the
ow it .will not be me.
'11 and me as strong as himself.
and able to hit just as hard. I'm
ready for-any kind of a fight.
Soy- Hsrry Wills:
I have, never.been in better shape
I.
to
for a light than} am for th' one
tonight’with Bartley Madden. I'll
welsh about 215‘ pounds. It's ab-
surd sometimes to predict Just when
a. fight will end. but rest .assured
that-r11 win as quickly as possible.
I muse ‘that‘Madden is a rough.
tough'fellow, but in the condition I
am. I expect to soften the Irishman
up as he rnever\ws.s softened before
and send him crumpling to the mat
early in the fight. The result means
much to me ’and I'll spare nothing
to make my victory clean-cut and
decisive. The bout tonight is 'my
first on my way up to meet Demp-
serisnd I'll let nothing interfere
with my plans; Inn: to snow that
I an worthy of. that fight with
