These four studies of Jack Dempsey,:' now training for his comeback battle with Jack Sharkey, show
the four main essentials in conditioning, outside o' getting into physical trim. Months of idleness
away'from active combat spoil a fighter's judge of distance, the timing of his blows, the "snap" or power
of his punches and cut the resiliency and spring in his legs. He must perfect these again to be in top form.

TWILIGHT STUFF
By Chet Laird
A big surprise of the year has
been the showing made by the
Hansen-Liljequist club. At the
present they are fighting for first
place.
The post office has some of
their players away on vacations
but have secured some new blood
that will make the others step
when they return.
A club that got away to a good
start was the P. E. P. but of late
they are not playing the ball that
they are capable of doing. They
are about due to snap out of their
slump and .are a dangerous club
when going right.
"Lucky" Price, who has held
down the Keystone sck for the
PoFt Office has been going big. all
year both at bat and in the field.
"Ike" White has proven to be
the champion base-stealer for the
De Molay club. He has made sev
eral sensational slides during the
eason.
' The Legion still holds the lead
m the Commercial league and
iooks like a sure winner.
The Valley Motor won another
game last week and looked like
uire runner-ups. They have all
their players back again after va
cations and will make it tough
oing from now on for the other
clubs.
"Scotty" .Moore of Bishop's has
:een playing a nice game all year.
His fielding has been perfect and
his base hits have .come in the
punches.
Paul Acton has been holding
iown the initial ia'c'k-; .for the
Grotto this- year and looks like
a ybungster.iHe has cutoff sev
eral hits by pis sensational field-
ng.
An old head with the Valley
Motor is Proctor and he still can
lout the old apple as last week
he hit .333.
"Del" Versteeg has been shifted
o the infield this year and has
been going big for the Paper
makers. His fielding and hitting
have been a big help.
The K. tC claim to have the
Idest player in Twilight ball in
lohn Humphreys. Johnnie has
been playing ball ever since Salem
has had Twilight ball and that
dstes back about twenty-one or
wo years.
BUGS AMI THINGS
The world of vacationists learns
fhrough the columns of the Wim
in's Home Companion. that "girls
vrho hate bugs and snakes will be
miserable In a camp." But tutrk
T all the girls who adore bugs
nd snakes they are going to
have a gl6riou3 time!

f Asanciatd Prw ?rt Editor
NEW YORK, Jnlv 6. API
It seems doubtful tliat Leo' P.
Flynn. astute a fistic? mind as he
is, will make a "clever" fighter
out of Jack Dempsey in the short
space of a few weeks.
The notion persists that Demp
sey is still primarily a slugger of
the oid school, and that if he whips
Jack Sharkey on the night of July
21, it will be by beating the sailor
to the punch, not by out-smarting
him.
Taking the "dope" from any
angle. Sharkey figures to outbox
Dempsey. The longer the fight
lasts the better Sharkey's chances
of victory may be for the BosAon
entry has speed, youth and the
stamina that goes with it in his
favor.
The "sock" is Dempsey's main
reliance, if he still has it. and
training camp reports indicate he
has. The earlier he tries it out on
Sharkey, the better will be his
chances of breaking through the
sailor's defense.
Sharkey is shattering a few pre
cedents by not settling down to the
serious business of training until
two weeks before the battle, and
also in choosing indoor! ground,
far from the calm of the country
side for his conditioning.
Sharkey has been in fighting
trim most of the winter and
spring, where Dempsey has been
out of the ring since September.
The ex-gob has less excess pound
age to work off.
Sharkey has always trained In
doors for his outdoor, fgihts. His
explanation is that it gives him ad
ed vigor when he steps into the
open air for the battle.
BURROUGHS WILL
GIVE EXHIBITION
The swimming tank at the
YMCA, already one of the most
popular places in town among the
young 'folks, and many of the,
old folks as well, will have an
added attraction in the near fu
ture, for Julian Burroughs, cham
pion diver at the OAC. and con
tender for a plate on the Ameri
can swimming team entered in the
last Olympic meet, has recently
returned to his home in Salem,
and will soon give a series of
swimming and diving exhibitions
in the local tank.
That the tank is popular is evi
denced by the fact that every day
the classes conducted by Harvey
Brock, swimming instructor, are
full to capacity. Several have had
to be divided to accommodate all
those applying for admission.
Pete Jensen, former swimming
instructor at Spokane, Wash., is
assisting in the swimming work at
the Y during the summer months,
giving special classes in life sav
ing several nights each week.
The total number of admissions
to the tank during the month of
June was 3282, according to
report made by Brock. Of this
number 1390 were girls and wom
en, wun ls'jz men and boys using
the ;ank.

(AP) Play began to narrow down
appreciably t in all events of tbe
Oregon state tennis championship
tournament, her, today. .The ad
vance was particularly noticeable
in the men's singles, whicjl, with
the exception of but one match,
reached the quarter-finals.
The Californians, as -usual,
weathered the storm of today's
program better than the home
guard. In the men's event, five
of eight seeded players remained
in the meet. All five are from
California. The three Oregon
players, who were seeded, j Roy

POPULAR
The average sport1 fans opin
ion, regarding any of the men he
follows, is subconsciously frased
by his personal feeling toward the
athlete in question. .
But I believe there never has
been a prize fight the advance dis
cussion of which has brought out
more clearly how strong this per
sonal element can influence one in
weighing tho relative merits of
the participants than the coming
hrawl between Dempsey and Jack
Sharkey. '
Try this on your next door
neighbor.
Ask him whom he favors in the
coming affair.
Then ask him his reasons. ,
Ninety-nine out of one hundred
will admit sooner or later that
above and beyond the possible
physical -condition, ability and
abstract merits of their favoTite,
they are for him and against the
other on personal grounds.
Those who favor Sharkey to
win can be divided into four
classes:
Those who have always hated
Dempsey because of his inactivity
during the war.
Those who decried his depar
ture from the ring for the motion
picture game.
Those ' who admire Sharkey's
boastfulness (self-confidence is
more kindly) .
And those who admire the'pres
ent champ. Gene Tunney.
Those who favor Dempsey to
beat Sharkey include:
Those who still rate Dempsey as
an idol the quintessence of all
that is true and holy in a heavy
weight.
Those who believe there was
something queer in the ex-champ's
last appearance. i
And those who string with "the
under dog." The belief that pemp
ey will come back is father to the
thought.
This condition is a logical one,
as a matter of fact.
The public at large has no way
of knowing how Dempsey's con
dition now compares to that he ex
hibited last September.
The argument of age has no
foundation.
Sharkey's showing against Ma
loney and Wills .mean' nothina:
when stripped to the bohpi No
one knows how Wills. Maloney
and the others shape up against
Dempsey or Tunney.
The only man who is a at all
qualified to express an unbiased
opinion of. the chances of Sharkey
and. Dejnpsey is not with us." He
won't be uptil the day' before the
Sharkey battle Jalv 21. Then
he one who has a chance to look
Dempsey over In action and repose
will be in a position to hazard an
opinion.
Then, if he1 can weigh the nx
ohamo's condition and hopes -coldly
and abstractly and express his
findings, his word will be worth
some thing.
It is said lhat Berlin consumed
11,000.000 gallons of beer last
year but that is4not the reason
the ex-kaiser wants to get back
