Charles Jewtraw of Lake Placid and Charles German of St. JohnN. B., tied for second with 60, and Jos Moore! of New York third with 30.- , . i , The feature of the day's sport was the sensational work of, Joe Moore, who won the two-mile event, coming from behind by a tremendous effort, and nipping Jewtraw and McWhirter out at the tape. The time of the event was 5:54. (By raited Nw) TVTEW YORK. Feb. t. The Dempsey - Willard fight Is postponed until La bor day, September S. If Jack Dempsey should lose to Georges . Carpentler on July 2, the Willard fight will be off for ever, because Willard la going Into ths match to get back his title and the earn ing power it implies. r " Tex Rickard will build a big arena somewhere, perhaps in Jersey City, per haps in Toledo, perhaps in Benton Har bor, Mich., or Montreal, for the Demp-sey-Carpentier fight, and If Dempsey wins, making the Wfllard fight worth while, this one also will be fought In ths same enclosure. The famous promoter announced the postponement and his change of plans Wednesday after con ferences with Jack Kearns and Big Jess. HOED IT OW FBJURtES I " Rickard will not say where he hopes to build this arena, but New York seems fto be out of the picture, because Gov ernor Miller has let it be known that ha is against the Dempsey-Carpentler fight In this state. I ; The reason ths Willard match was shoved back was that Dempsey and Wil lard want to fight In the biggest pos sible arena, so as to pack in more cus tomers, as they are righting on a per centage basis. Rickard says the advance demand for tickets while the match was still on'the schedule for March 17 was so great that he became convinced that the garden never would, hold the people who wanted to see it. The garden Is the largest available house in New York, seating 14.000. The military armories, some of which could seat a great many more, are closed to prize fighting shows, although they are open to wrestling matches and bike races. JERSEY IDEAL SPOT New Jersey would stand for both fights. Jersey City would be the Ideal spot, being only an hour from New York, with splendid transportation facilities and no insignificant fight center in. her own right. Although Ohio stood for the Dempsey-Willard fight, there Jias been a change of administration since then, and the necessary missionary work prepar atory to such a contest usually is diffi cult and very costly. . Rickard has a preference for going alone on his promo tions, but if he takes the fight to Mich igan, he may have to take in Floyd Fits simmons, who put on the .Dempsey Miske thing in Benton Harbor. Mon treal is still a question mark on the blue prints because the government of Que bec has not committed itself on the mat ter of permitting the Dempsey-CarpenUer bout. , ' f French Runner Sails for IT.

What Major leaguers Think About 1921 Race By Lee Fohl CT. LOUIS, Mo, Feb. S. U. P.) A - spruis lorecui irequemiy is laiai for the one who attempts to fill the role of prophet. I have gone through the ups and downs of baseball long enough to know that a simple prediction is not the winning punch to a ball club. I am very well acquainted with the material for this season and if things pan out the way I think they will, the Browns will not drag along in the second division. Of course, I am aiming at the pen nant. That is the desire of every man ager. With pitching always the 'great est asset. I will turn my attention to developing the pitching during the spring training. I have two stars in Urban Shocker and Dixie Davis and I have another, who, if he regains the form of 1919. will give me Just what I want a third regular. li is Allan Sothoron. I expect to find a Jewel in Southpaw Bill Bayne, a midget, while Joe De berry. Van Gilder. BurweJl and Cuban Pal mero are other prospects. A review of the Browns would not be complete without mentioning George Sisler. who, in my opinion, is without a superior. With the pitching I have mentioned. St. Louis may furnish the baseball sur prise of the season. Dates of National Golf Meet Given Out New York. Feb. 3.
