Dopesters Hard at It
Guessing Gene's Opponent
By ALAN j. GOULD
AaaooUted Press Sport. Editor.
NEW TORK. March 22 (AP)
The heavyweight elimination
game has turned into a guessing
contest.
Tex Rlckard doesn't care how
many guesses the boys take so
long as they make It clear that
the New York promoter has tbe
market In title boats cornered.
There Is no limit to the number
of chances on this merry-go-round.
Maybe Riekard himself does not
know the answer. But the experts
are doing the best they can to
help him . out. Some Insist Tom
Heeney, the honest but no longer
overcoatlese "Anzac" will get the
big call. Tom Is the common
people's choice.
Others say it will he bounding
Johnny Rlsko, the big rough and
tumble boy. Johnny is backed by
the bakers and pretiel benders
the "big dough men."
John and Tom are the finalists
of the heavyweight tournament
but the answer seems to be:
"What of UT No arrangements
have been made for any final yet."
Paolino. others guess, will, be
called back into the Riekard fold.
The Basque has as much color as
any of the contenders but other
wise his chief recommendation is
an ability to "take It." Even Jack
Sharkey's name continues to be
mentioned in some quarters.
man; Frultland Community, Gl
rod; Jason Lee. K. Bonney; Bun
galow Christian, Birtchet; and
Leslie Methodist Episcopal, C.
French. There Is still a chance
for several more teams to enter,
and Mr. Boardman urges that as
many churches in the city enter
teams as possible.
The various teams will play one
game a week, for a period of
about six weeks. In order to stim
ulate more Interest in the games,
It has been decided to award the
members of the wincing team with
minature gold baseballs.
Another meetingwill be held
next Wednesday nfght In the
YMCA at which the constitution
committee which was appointed at
the last meeting, will read their
new constitution which they will

Tbe league games will be in
charge of Dwight Adams, boys'
secretary at the "Y." All games

THE .OREGON STATESMAN, SALEM, OREGON, FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH 23, 1928
There Is no doubt the tailor once
was the fair-haired boy, so far as
Rlckard was concerned bat a
knockout, a defeat on point and
a draw. In his last three fights,
hare taken the logic out of the
sailor's challenge. -
Back again, then, goes the
guess that It will "be Dempsey and
that the one big title fight that
Rlckard clans this year will be
held in September instead of July.
Meantime Gene Tunney and the
New York boxing commissioners
are having a little guessing con
test of their own.
The comlssioners aren't quite
flattered by the way the champion
has Ignored their list of heavy
weight challengers Sharkey,
Heeney and Risko. They see no
humor In the fact that Sharkey Is
at the head of a list of logical con
tenders even though some of the
experts do.
The solons will exhibit their
annoyance tomorrow wnen mey
consider Tunney's reply to their
request for definite action and
even may take some drastic action
against teh champion.
Tunney, a New Yorker, hasn't
forgotten that the commission re
fused to recognise hi as a chal
lenger in 1926. the year he won
the title In Philadelphia, and also
erected obstacles in 1927 that
forced Riekard to take the second
Dempsey-Tunney battle to Chica
go.
FUGAZY STILL BUSY
NEW YORK. Mar. 22. (AP)
Humbert J. Fugazy, rival of Tex
Rlckard in the local boxing field,
opened a drive today to break the
Madison Square Garden promoter's
corner of the heavyweight market.
Before leaving for Chicago to
discuss a possible alliance with
Jim Mullen, midwest fistic power,
Fugazy settled a financial squab
ble with Paolino Uzcudun, Span
ish heavyweight and announced
that the basque woodsman had
agreed to a return mate h with
George Godfrey, giant negro at
Ebbetts field early In May. God
frey gained a decision over the
Spaniard In 10 rounds on the Pac
ific coast recently.
Fugazywlll attempt to match
Jack Sharkey and Jack Delaney
for an outdoor bout. He also hopes
to toss Knute Hansen into his own
"elimination" series along with
Phil Scott, the British champion
in spite of the fact that Riekard
has the champion. Gene Tunney,
"cornered" for 1928.

managers of this division decided
tonight at the first of a aerlea of
conferences Intended to iron out
difficulties in the operation of the
conference. Few matter of great
Import were discussed today, due
to the absence of Earl Foster,
graduate manager of Washington
State college. The meeting will
continue over tomorrow.
The proposed four year football
schedule was discussed at length
tonight but no action was taken.
Under the operations of this plan
the present contract and agree
ments would be scrapped and a
slate for a four year period made.
Radio broadcasting came up for
discussion at the meeting tonight.
with especial reference to the
broadcsetlng of football games.
Carl Lodell, graduate manager of
Oregon State college, and Darwin
Meisnest, former University of
Wasington graduate manager,
have prepared an elaborate report
which they will present tomor
row. Arrangements for the north
west track meet at Missoula. Mon
tana in June were discussed to
night, but no definite program
wa announced.
Portland football fans will be
given the advantage of a lower
scale of prices for the college
games in the fall of 1928, it was
decided. This action was taken
because attendance last year was
not op to expectations.
The group favored the promo
tion of a greater variety in the inter-collegiate
program of athletics,
mentioning handball, volley ball,
lacrosse, gymnastics and others.
It Is planned to work these in
with the physical education pro

light heavyweight division prob
ably to meet Tommy Longhran in
June for the title In that division,
but neither man 'will meet Gene
Tunney this year, Tex Rlckard an
nounced tonight.
Rlckard said he was expecting
acceptance of a Loughran-Deianey
bout offer fro mthelr managers
tonight or tomorrow, but he stress
ed that Delaney's shift back to his
old division had no significance
as far as Tunney's opponent this
year was concerned,
"Neither Delaney; nor Loughran
Is big enough to worry, a man as
strong nd clever as Tunney,"
Rlckard declared, but added that
Loughran "if he keeps on growing
may be a good xnach for Tunney
in 19t9."
"It would be foolish for Tommy
to step out of the light heavy
weight class now," the promoter
asserted.
Rickard's announcement came
as a denial of reports that . a
Loughran-Deianey match would l
be arranged to select an opponent
for Tunney this year.
