KBW YORK. Feb. 2, Jack
Dempsey's chances of defending
his heavyweight title this year, ai
least in New York state were re
duced to a minimum today as a
result of the decision of William
Muldoon, chairman of the state
athletic commission, not to per
mit contests with Che two men re
garded as leading challengers.
Harry Wills,; New Orleans negro
and Jess Willard, former cham
pion. Excessive financial, demands by
Dempsey's manager and alleged
commercialtstic methods employ
ed by promoters seeking to stage
one or both : of the bouts, Mr!
Muldoon declared, prompted his
attitude. Staging of a Dempsey
Wills or bempsey-Wlllard bout In
New York state, he said, would be
detrimental to the boxing game.
On the surface it appeared that
Muldoon's edict would eliminate
the only definite fight proposition
now being considered by Demp
sey an offer by Tom 'O'Rourke,
Polo Grounds matchmaker, for
bouts this summer against Wills
and Joe Beckett. O'Rourke and
Kearns, however, denied ' the bid
had been withdrawn.1"'"5 f
Meanwhile, neither Jess Wil
lard nor Kearns appeared discour
aged by obstacles set, in the path
of heavyweight title toiafches this
year. ' , . ; . ,
Kearns reiterated bis desire for
bouts with both Wills and Willard
and hinted .that an effort, might
be made to stage .one; or 'both at
