TOLEDO CHOSEN AS
SITE FOR WORLD S
CHAMPIONSHIP GO
Undercurrent of Opposition Started by Men Connected With
Pugilistic Game Likely to Give Trouble; Bout Will Be the
Shortest Title Event' Ever Scheduled; Prices High. 1
By H. C. Hamilton
T T EW YORK, Vlay 6. ( U. P. ) Tex Rickard has spoken and
INI Toledo is the place where Jess Willard and Jack Dempsey
will battle on July 4. Full many a wail of protest is sched
uled to take the ajr between now and Independence day. But the
very fact that Rickard declined to confirm rumors of the selection
of the Ohio city until the last detail had been attended makes it
unlikely that unforeseen obstacles will appear in the path of the
. bout. . ' .: . ' , .
There is an undercurrent of opposition to the battle that .is
likely to' give some trouble, but only in a passive way. There are
said to be men connected with the pugilistic game who have
striven to throw impediments in the wayf of the famous promoter,
but these men are not expected to do any great harm.
Rickard has withheld their names, but has promised to give
them publicity in a statement if their efforts to block him con
tinue."
Some opposition to a bout of only
12 rounds, even with a decision at
tached, already has been spoken In
this section, but this Is reather far
fetched In view of the prowess of
Dempsey. Rickard could have built
his arena In Idaho for a bout of 25
rounds, but by placing it In Ohio.
. .the crowd will be greater and ac
commodations better for the huge
crowd he expects to handle.
Seat Prices Are Set.
The promoter believes, an arena to
. ah lion ,tn i(i.ti(iu 18 ins imKcsi
he can construct and stilt make it
possible for the seatholders farth--est
away to see the battle. Prices
will range from 5 to $50, which
' should Rive the promoter a minimum
of about $350,000 in receipts. He
r , will pay $127,500 to the boxers. . The
battle will be staged at Bay view
" Park, ' according to present plans,
- which' Is on Maumee bay and under
the jurisdiction, of Toledo officials.
Governor Cox, Rickard believes,
will not Interfere, for the Ohio law.
v Rlckard's attorney gives assurance,
puts it squarely up to the local au
Y tborities to decide whether or not
; they want boxing contests.
Champion Is Satisfied
- -Excelsior Springs, Mo.. May .
U.- P.) Jack Dempsey, returning
, ' from early morning road work to
day, expressed entire satisfaction
with thfe prospect of a 12-round go
at Toledo, Ohio, with Jess Willard
on July 4. Dempsey let It be known
he favors the limit fixed by Tex
Jttckard over the longer route.
' The ".' heavy weight title contender
had lost none of his confidence In
' his ability to usurp the heavyweight
frown. He regards the announced
location and fight -limit as assets
rather than liabilities.
, Dempsey Pleased With Site
. tos Angeles, May 6. (U. .)
- Toledo suits me," was Jess Wll
lard's comment today on Tex Rick-
: ard's selection of the Ohio city as

ledo or Turkey, any Where's all right.
"We can An a lot-of fighting In a
dosen rounds. We should have no
difficulty in settling who's the bet

Willard Is here Bt aging a movie.
He spends the greater part of each
- day out on the "lot" at the studios,
surrounded by a picturesque lot of
co wboys and "atmosphere."
It - will take two weeks longer for
him to , complete . his picture. "He

Mays in Class
Underhand Ball Is; a Success
Former . Portland Hurler One of
Boston's Best Bets in 1919
Pennant; Race.
: By Jack Tleeek
CARL MATS. is the only under
handed pitcher of any real class
in the major leagues today, and one
of a select quartet: who have gotten
away with the freak delivery over t
a period of many years in the .big
. show. " :
Jack Warhop, who used to sling .
for the Tanks ; Rhines of the old ,
Cincy Reds, and McGinnity of Giant
fame, were pitchers who resorted to
the underhand method of hurling a
baseball, and .though 'there, have
' been a number of pitchers who have
tried that style of twirling, the four
mentioned here rank as the peers
of their class.
Mays graduated to the Red Sox
in 1915 coming tip from the Provi
dence club, and right off the reel he
proved a winner, winning 24 games
and losing but eight in his first
season. His delivery is a puzzle to
American league batters, and un-
' less we miss our guess he is going
to be one of Kd Barrow's best bets '
on the mound this season.
DELIVERY HARD TO HIT
By giving the Yankees an un
' merciful beating in the first game
of the ' season Mays started gossip
among players and writers. The
merits of his underhand- delivery
have -been discussed pro and con
r ever , since and the majority is
; agreed that Mays stands out among
" American league hurlers as one of
the most difficult pitchers to hit.
Mays 'has a fast ball, regardless of
. the fact that to the fan in the
grandstand ft may look more like a
- slow- one. His best ball is known
among the members of the Red Sox
as the "screw ball," whichis a new
one. It is so called because it is
alleged -to twist as do the threads
in a screw. It twirls sideways in
coming up to the batter, and when
' it is working ' good it breaks In
toward the riglft-handed hitters

rather' than away from them.'
It . is easy to imagine .how-a good
"rise ball, coming from a' height
of perhaps 18 inches to 30 Inches
from the ground and rising as it
flashes toward the- plate is difficult
to judge. The average pitcher uses
either an. overhand or a sldearm
deliyery -or a cross between them
and as ' a result the batsmen are
better able to judge that kind of
pitching. ' If they could stand on
their heads Mays' first, "screw,
ball"-would look natural enough..1
Kd Barrow says he doesn't figure
that Mays is! any better than Mc
Oinnity was in his. heyday as a
pitcher, but he points out that Mc-.
Ginnity was jmore of a side-arm
pitcher than ilays. Mays pitches,
more like Rhines used to pitch, ac-'
cordipg to Scout Joe Kelly of the
x anKs, ana nas a raster ball, though
not as good a curve as McGinnity
used.
Mays was formerly with the Port
land Northwest league team.

should add some batting strength to the
team, although no fault can be found
with the way Beavers knocked the horse

The return of Frank - Walker to the
game after a layoff of nearly two weeks
on account of an injury sustained In
Salt Lake helped the Beavers greatly
for the former Detroit Tiger pounded
out, nine hits in 20 trips to the plate in
five games. In addition to scoring several
