P.Y XORMAX E. BROWN
For many' weeks to come' Gene
Tunney will draw the bulk of at
tention in the heavyweight circles.
He deserves such attention. His
victory over the much talked of
veteran. Tommy Gibbons, gives
him some claim to fame.
Bnt let's not form any wrong
impressions concerning the young
man as much in justice to him
self as for any other reason..
Tunney stands out as one of the
best young heavyweights in the
game. Because of his recent k. o.
victory he holds the edge, in draw
ing power at least, over Jimmy
Slattery, Paul Berlenhach, Young
Stribling and Jack Delaney.
But be cannot now be called a
great heavy.
There is no reason for ranking
him above Firpo the man who
knocked Jack Dempsey out of the
ring.
He has not met Firpo. He
fought a worn out vet when he
met Carpentier.
He has licked no one of real
importance. Giving him the credit
due him in his fight with Gibbons
the fact that the St. Paul man
was but an aged shell cannot be
overlooked.
Tunney bas already been likenr
ed to-Gentleman Jim Corbett in
boxing skill; Those who seek, to
pay Gene this compliment must
have forgotten how good Corbett
was.
The' main thing in Tunney's
favor is his youth and the present
situation in the heavyweight dlv
ison.' The next logical opponent
for the young Tnnhey will be the
winner of the Harry Wills-Charlie
Weinert battle. Both of these
men .are ring grandpas.
Uy the time Tunney disposes of
one of them and steps into tne
I ring with the champion the latter
will be an old man in ring par
lance and out of the habit of fight
ing.
In the meantime, however. Tun
ney may find trouble for himself
'f he takes on one of the afore
mentioned younger men. A draw
verdict or a defeat even on points
t the hands of Slattery. for in-
tanVe. would lower Tunney's
tock.
The kind thing to do Tunney
's to give him plenty of encourage
ment and let him alone. Let's
-ot build him into a false idol and
then watch him po on-the rocks
of to"fhlight parades and ' bally
booing. '.'
history. Peter Maher, great old
time battler, was the greatest of
left-handers. i
When Babe Ruth socked out his
first home run of the season the
other day at least four bludgeon
wieldera in the big show probably
began i wonder how long they
would be battling for the four-
base honors.
These men, while they are slug
ging out circuit clouts at. a good
pace for"the average slugger, , are
not traveling the gait the Babe is
accustomed to travel when he is
right. Should Babe swing Into
his home run stride at this date
be could overtake them quite
handily at the rate they are going.
For when Babe . is right fifteen
homers by the second week In
June isn't a very high average.
The four men who are striving
for home run honors while Babe
comes back Into his own are Gab
by Hartnett of the Cubs and
Rogers Hornsby. Cardinal man
ager, in the National league, and
Ken Williams of the j Browns and
Bob Meusel of the Yanks in the
American circuit.
Hartnett led the park for many
weeks, due partly to a hitting
rampage that netted him five
homers in a few days
newcomer In " the
Meusel never has been a home rua
hitter extraordinary. His work
this year with the bat is. pheno
menal. Hornsby is not a circuit
hitter although one of the greatest
base hit collector's the game has
ever known; Ken Williams has
been battling for home run honors
for several, years. He picked up
the knack of hitting homers after
the germ had lain ' dormant . in
his system for years.; ,
If Ruth fails to get his full
strength back in time to swing
Into his usual, batting style these
four men may battle it out for
honors. Babe himself, however,
allows a how it will take a better
record than they are setting to
halt him, despite histardy begin-
discipline been maintained In re
cent seasons the Cubs, with the
material employed, might have
won a pennant or two.
The other day the question of
policy came up again and Lasker
finally, stated in a friendly spirit
rthat as long as the (wo ideas con
flicted it was only fair that one
man step out. He thereupon of
fered to buy Wrigley's interests at
$200 a share or sell his at $150.
Wrigley agreed to buy.
Lasker. however, still retains
enough stock to give him a place
in the directorate.
He, is the
ranks. Bob
For those fight , promoters and
managers who think and we fear
that we automatically limit this
Item to the attention of a very few
men there should be a warning
In the financial outcome of the
recent. Tunney-Gibbons battle in
New York.
The battle, was a gigantic fizzle
as far as the. box office was con
cerned. The promoters lost be
tween $60,000 and $70,000. This
despite the fact that- Tunney is
reigning favorite in New York and
the rest of the east; that Gibbons
had the rep of having stayed 15
rounds with Dempsey, and that
the show was staged for sweet
, charity.
Gibbons drew $100,000 for his
end and Tunney a total of $.0,-
000 for his end.
Three boners were nulled in
staging the , fight.
The promoters allowed the fail
Ing old vejeran Gibbons and his
astute manager to hold them up
The same promoters figured
they could kid the public into pay-
ing high prices for seats.
They Ignored the fans who like
fighting but can't pay a day's sal
ary to see a bout.
The result- has been chronicled.
Those who didn't have the price
stayed away. ;
Those who had It figured the
fight wasn't worth the money
ditto. ., '
And. those who went weren't
any too well satisfied with what
they got for their money.
Now the warning Is that these
holdups can't be pulled too often.
The sooner promoters and man
agers get together and decide to
play fair with the public the bet
ter off the fight game will be.
And every holdnp is souring a
certain number of ticket buyers on-
the game.
Sensational don'ts for swim-
swimmers are appearing. If you
do not remember the others, bear
in mind that the Injunction to use
common sense win -or itself go far
as a safeguard.

light on the recent deal whereby
Albert D. Lasker, former chair

of his stock in the Chicago Na

Wrigley, Jr. The deal gives young
Wrigley control of 75 per cent of
