BT DICK SHARP.
The opening show of the 1921-1922
boxing season in Portland will be
held September 2 at the armory and
will be in the nature of a benefit
card,- according to Walter B. Honey
man, secretary of the Portland box
inn commission. Every boxer on the
bill will donate his services absolutely
free and pledge on his word to enter
the ring and fight his hardest just
the same as if he was battling for a
fat purse.
Frankie Murphy, who fought Bat
tling Ortega for the magnificent sum
of $19.75. at the Milwaukie arena the
other night, was one of the first ones
to notify Matchmaker-Evans that he
would box on the benefit show.
Murphy fought the ten toughest
rounds of his career against one of
the best mlddleweights in the game
and received less than $20, Vet he is
willing to box for nothing to pull
the Portland commission out of debt.
And then people talk about fighters'
characters and about them being
over-paid.
Joe Gorman will battle on the bill,
meeting some boy who will insure
him getting a real argument. Bobby
Harper, the Seattle kingpin light
weight, will step through the ropes
on the benefit bill. Jimmy Darcy has
agreed to met anyone whom Match
maker Evans might select for him
. . . 1 .. . V. i Tlnifir
ana give mem a i. li.i in c 1110
coast middleweight title. It Is said
that Niel Zimmerman and Johnny
Wade have expressed their willing
ness to box as have a dozen others.
Because of the great number of
boxers who will perform On that
evening, it is likely that all of the
fights will be limited to four or six
three-minute rounds, with 10 or 12
bouts on the card. Every topnotcher
in the city will show his wares and
fight his best or be disgraced for life
in Portland.
Every boxer is expected to offer
t& do his bit. particularly those who
have dragged down big guarantees
from the Portland commission. And
every one of them in that class, such
as Gorman, Harper and Darcy, have
already agreed to go on.
Boxers who are willing to step
up and do a square trick are urged
to get in touch at once with either
Matchmaker Evans or Secretary
Honeyman so the boys can be paired
off at once.' Arrangements for the
show are going ahead rapidly.
The situation is either the commis
sion debt be wiped out or the game
given a permanent rest The bulk of
the debt was contracted on one losing
card, the Shrine show, over a year
ago. This has always been a sword
of Damocles hanging over the com
mission. The commission is through
giving stiff guarantees to main
eventers unless they are sure shots.
HeYeafter the loss of any large sum
will be impossible.
. .
The rest this month will do every
thing concerned with the boxing
game good. There has been al
together too much boxing and it
would have been better to have even
shut down several months ago for
the summer. The Portland commis
s.on did close down in July, with Mil
waukie running its last bill August 3.
Frankie Murphy will start training
tomorrow for his coming ten-round
setto with Dave Shade at Marshfield.
Or The Fighting Harp is flushed
with hi3 showing against Battling
Ortega and is determined to bowl
Shade over and cop the Pacific coast
welterweight title.
Goat Lavin, who will tangle with
Jimmy Darcy. is worked out daily at
George Burns' "east side, gym while
Darcy is on a fishing trip. Tommy
McCarthy, the Portland welter who
meets Red Campbell of San Francisco
in the third ten-round bout on the
Marshfield card, is also training here
for the struggle, while Campbell is in
Marshfield working for the contest.
Murphy and Darcy have signified
their intentions of leaving for Marsh
field the latter part of this week
and wind up training for the match
on the ground. Darcy wants to do
some fishing while. Murphy wants to
get well acclimated so that he will
be at his best.
Bend, Or., will be the scene of a
boxing card Labor day. Duffy Knorr
will fight someone in the ten-round
main event while Allie Taylor and
Abe Gordon will likely clash in the
semi-final match.
Clyde Branum has closed for three
fights in the northwest. Dave Shade
o," Vancouver, B. C, made another
effort yesterday to get Frankie
Murphy to box Shade in Vancouver,
B. C, August 12. but because of the
Marshfield . date Frankie turned it
down. Shade will probably meet Joe
Simonich in Seattle this week.
MOUXIXG FOOTBALL PLANNED
Columbia May Stage Big Game
Forenoon of Thanksgiving.
NEW YORK, Aug. 6. Columbia
may attempt an innovation in its
football methods next fall: Bob "Watt,
graduate manager of the institution,
has about decided to stage his
Thanksgiving day tussle with Colgate
early in the morning instead of in
the afternoon. He believes that many
ot the fans who are unwilling to
absent themselves from the attrac
tions of a turkey laden table late in
the day to see 22 hungry undergradu
ates working up an appetite will at
tend the game if it takes place before
the usual lunch hour.
Although Watt's idea is a .strange
one to local football followers, It
seems mighty attractive. All of the
Gotham colleges have played base
ball games in the forenoon on va
rious occasions and none of them has
had any complaint about the attena
ance. The fact that the student
body and alumni usually furnish the
greater part of Columbia's football
crowds is another point in favor of
Watt's suggestion. It is very likely
that those who frown upon the pros
pect of arising early on holiday morn
ings will be led around to the Harlem
manager's way of thinking when they
consider the joys of an undisturbed
turkey feast in the afternoon.

Successful Coup In Heavyweight
Banks Yet to Be Recorded.
Corbctt's Approach Nearest.
BY FRANKLIN B. MORSE.
Whether it was Shakespeare or
One-Eyed Mike who originated the
well-known maxim, "They never come
back," it failed to fit the case of
Pete Herman, who. July 25, regained
the bantamweight championship from
Joe Lynch, who previously had taken
it from Pete.
Yes, they do come back very occa
sionally. Ketchel came back in the
middleweight division, and it would
not be a surprise if Lynch returned
if another match is arranged for him
against Herman.
Nobody ever came back in the
heavyweight ranks, although many
have tried. The nearest approach
was made by Jim Corbett against
Jim Jefries at Coney Island. The
PROPOSED WILLARD-DEMPSEY
BOUT ROUSES NO ENTHUSIASM
Ex-Champion Believed to Have Little Chance Against Titleholder
Even if Knockout at Toledo Was Accidental.
BY HARRY B. SMITH.
S'
AN FRANCISCO, Aug. 6. (Spe
cial.) Reports from New York
that Tex Rickard has mapped out
a Jess Willard-Jack Dempsey cham
pionship match are not met with any
three cheers in San Francisco. Wil
lard is figured pretty much as a
down-and-outer and the argument is
put forward that if he couldn't win
from Jack Dempsey two years back
at Toledo what chance would he
stand now?
Likewise, I contend it is a. strong
argument.
The match may be made, but if so,
it will attract no great attention.
Perhaps it will be a coin maker, par
ticularly as that Jersey City arena is
footloose, but there will be no large
gathering of newspaper talent, and
Rickard. together with the fighters,
will needs be satisfied with the small
money.
So far as that is concerned, the
chances are that they will be quite
willing to play along on such a basis.
I saw Tex Rickarcb. at Madison
Squre Garden . the day after the big
fight and, undisturbed, had quite a
long and comfortable chat with him.
He referred to Jess Willard as a
possibility and on that subject re
marked: "Jess Willard and Jack Dempsey
would make a good drawing match
if they could be brought together
again under the proper condition
But Willard would have, to train for
several months in order to convince
the fans that he is in earnest and
means business. I don't think Jess
would do anything of the sort. Above
all else, Willard is lazy. He never
did like the idea of buckling down
to the training stunt and I doubt very
much if you coiHd persuade him to
now."
That, of course, was a' month ago.
Meantime no strong opponent looms
up tor Jack Dempsey.
The titleholder evidently discov
ered there is nothing doing in the
picture line in l,db Angeiea ana ieeis
the need of keeping busy. Rickard,
on the other hand, would like to get
the value out of his Jersey City arena
before he- is compelled to abandon it
within six months when his lease
will be out.
So, fn their despair, they turn to
Rickard.
A lot of persons like to "kid" them
selves into the belief that it was an
accidental punch that stopped W1
lard. I ' might add that knockout
punches are always more or less "ac
cidental." However, I have rarely seen a
champion come back in the most
approved fashion and I don't think
there's one chance in a thousand for
Jess Willard to win his title again.
It is simply a case of taking the
loser's end and being satisfied with
that much.
But perhaps the match will not be
made. Public sentiment has a lot to
do with such affairs, and unless I
am badly mistaken public sentiment
w-ill not strongly approve of such a
bout.
The boxing game seems to be com
ing back after a fashion in the bay
section. San Francisco is evidently
not ready to welcome the old-timers
in the four-round game, but in Oak
land there has been a partial resume
of the sport with some of the well
known boys in the limelight.
The four-round game at the Oak-
'7 ' ? x ,
RIGHT JIMMY DARCY OF
fight had 23 rounds to go and for 22
of theni Corbett had outpointed Jim
to an extent that put him miles to the
front. Then came the twenty-third
round, when Jeffries landed one of
the blows that he had been trying
for all evening. It knocked Corbett
out.
The attempt of Jim Jeffries to come
back against the negro. Jack Johnson,
is one of the pitiful chapters of Amer
ican ring history. '
In the light of this, one need not
be very imaginative to conjure up
the scene which would be enacted if
Jess Willard ever attempted to re
gain his lost laurels, particularly
after what happened when he was
supposed to be at his best.
The American public is little in
terested in the athlete who has had
his day and is seeking to do a come
back. It is the coming man who
inspires the imagination of ring fol
lowers. A year or so and the real
interest will not center on Dempsey,
but on the prospect who is likely to
dethrone the champion. At the mo
ment there is no one in sight ready
to inspire confidence as to his ability
to take the meaeure of Dempsey, but
as soon as he appears sentiment will
be in his favor. Particularly will this
be the caee with the man who will
swap blows with Dempsey, for Demp
sey does not enjoy the respect of a
great number of ring followers.
land auditorium is under the super
vision of the police authorities, and
the new chief of police has decreed
that no boy who has ever been ques
tioned by the police will be allowed
to fight. This Is rather a strict rul
ing, but as long as it is for the
upbuilding of the game, I am strong
for it.
A number of boys who have been
brought into police headquarters for
one reason or another have been re
fused the right to box, and switches
have been made in the card at the
eleventh hour on more than one oc
casion. .
It will be some time, from all I can
learn, before Frankie Farren is able
to fight. He visited me the other day
and, though the San Francisco light
weight is recovering from the bad
case of blood poisoning to which he
fell a "Victim in Boston, it is slow
work, and he teils me the doctor has
ordered him to lay low for a number
of weeks at least.
He is not even allowed to do light
work in the gymnasium. Naturally,
Frank is putting on weight, and
whether he will again be able to re
duce to lightweight proportions re
mains to be seen.

Xotable Revision of Queensbury
Code Eliminates Pivot Blow
and Incident Cruelty.
In the history of the Queenberry
rules and even in the London prize
ring laws, there have been times
when public sentiment forced changes
in them. Indeed, in Queensberry
rules themselves were an effort to
put the game on a basis where it
would appeal to the majority of peo
ple as a sport worthy of support, as
well as to simplify the London code.
One of the most notable changes in
the Queensberry code was to protect
against the pivot blow, which was
used in an old-time fight and caused
such a sensation that public opinion
turned severely againFt it. The blow
is one in which both hoxers are spar
ring, when suddenly one. who is in
close, turns on one heel, makes a
backward swing of his right arm and
brings it with all this force onto the
head, of his opponent. In the old
fight the loser was fascinated by the
strange move and had not thought of

Before starting a tour across the continent, it is desirable
to know something of the company which built your car,
as well as the car itself.
In the very broadest sense of the word, the Cadillac is a
sound and strongly established American institution.
There is probably not another plant in the world as advan
tageously equipped as the wonderful new works which the
- Cadillac Motor. Car Company has just occupied.
The Cadillac has always been a model in manufacturing
fitness and fineness, to which manufacturers of high grade
cars the world over have gladly paid tribute.
The new Cadillac plant insures a degree of scientific ex
actitude, efficiency, and economy, beyond the fondest
dreams of anything attained in the past;
Its far-flung system of sales and service puts friends within
easy reach for the Cadillac tourist, wherever his fancy may
carry him.
Back of every Cadillac sold is a solid history of eighteen
years of unique experience, hammered and welded into a
positive knowledge of how to build a car of the highest grade.
Back of every Cadillac is business responsibility a splendid
past, a solidly, successful present, a sure, substantial and
brilliant future.
The knowledge of these things brings a sense of certainty
and satisfaction to the Cadillac owner second only to the
certainty he feels that his car will do all he expects it to do,
and more than he could hope any other would do.

blocking or getting out of its way, it
went so fast. So this giant swing
a knockout punch was ruled out as
unsportsmanlike.
It struck the witer at Xew York
that two blows, new to the modern
game, should be barred by those op
erating under the Queensberry code,
and the subject should be put to a
vote of the 700 newspapermen who
saw the fight on July 2. These blows
were first mentioned by Jack Shee
han, an eastern referee, on the eve of
retiring from the game as an official.
He said there was one. the blow to
the back of an opponent's neck, which
tended to paralyze a round or so later
the body of the recipient. There is
found a certain nerve center of at
tack, much like the famous solar
plexus. This could easily be pointed
out to the American fighter by those
in the east familiar with it and the
position to hit, and indeed it may
have been a part of. the champion's
attack.
The other punch, and there is no
evidence to show that Dempsey used
this one against Carpentier, is a side
cut on the upper arm of an opponent
with the edge of a gloved hand. This
blow. If sharply delivered, acts much
like the blow which produces the
Charley horse of baseball, which is a
bruising of the thigh muscle. The
effects of the blow on the atm do not
show until a round or two later, when
the arm becomes heavy and slow and
partially paralyzed.

BURKE AFTER BHEHHAH
NEW ORLEANS FIGHTER HOT
ON TRAIL OF RIVAL.
Rickard Denies Plans for Rc
mutching Jack Dempsey With
Tough Cliicasoan.
NEW YORK, Aug. 6. Tex Rickard
denies that he has signed Jack Demp
sey, world's heavyweight, and Bill
Brennan, the Chicago boxer, for a
title bout to be held somewhere in
the metropolitan district on Labor
day.
A new challenger of Bill Brennan
has bobbed up. He is Marty Burke,
the New Orleans "string bean," who
was one of Dempsey's sparring part
ners when the champion was prepar
ing for his bout with Carpentier.
Burke says he now is ready to tackle
Brennan, Fulton, Miske. Gibbons or
any other top notch heavyweight, but
he prefers to take on Brennan.
Burke has had plenty of exper
ience, but his light weight'was a big
handicap to him. Recently he has
filled out considerably and now is
sturdy enough to tackle any of the
big fellows. After taking Dempsey's
wallops for several weeks. Burke
thinks he is capable of assimilating
anything that may come his way in
bouts with other heavies.
The New Orleans candidate for
heavyweight honors is 23 years old,
stands 6 feet 3 Inches and weighs 175
pounds in fighting condition. He is
a very clever boxer and faster than
most of the big fellows:
The Gibbons-Carpentier fight will
be on just as soon as the Frenchman
lets Tex Rickard know that the St.
Paul "cruiser" is satisfactory. The
match, however, is made, and the
Frenchman hardly will raise any ob
jections to Rickard's selection.
The- contract has not been signed,
but the terms will call for 12 rounds

booking him for an extensive summer
campaign. The agreement did not

place in the country.
Rickard would like to have the
bout on Columbus day. He had Labor
day in mind originally, but he doesn't
think the Frenchman can make a
date that early. Rickard also is
working on a Labor day match for his
Jersey City arena. Bill Brennan is
the tentative selection.
STADIUM PROJECT HAMPERED
Proposed Pasadena Bowl Cannot

PASADENA, Cal., Aug. 6. Hope
that a new athletic stadium would
be built here for the next New Year's
day east versus west football game

president of the Tournament of Ro3es
association, which conducts the game.
The game has been held every year
In Tournament park here. Following
the contest last New Year's day steps
were taken for construction of a new
athletic bowl and a site was obtained
in the Arroya Sc-co section. Lack of
money makes it impossible to con
struct the bowl-before the next game.
"Incompletion of the financing of
the project is responsible for the de
