" CHICAGO. Feb. 17 (AP)-
Jack Dempsey comes back to a
Chicago ring tomorrow night to
risk hit pugilistic future against
wild twinging King Levinsky.
Dempsey at 37, a seeker of toe
' truth f about hit .. chances of re
. gaining . the : world heavyweight
title, and Levinsky, 21 years old.
- cocksure and- believing he Is go-
- lag somewhere, will meet In what
" Js billed at a four round exhibi
tion at the Chicago stadium,
vThere will be no decision, but
neither thinks the other will be
on his feet at the finish. '
Dempsey will risk everything
he, has gained In his year long
trudge up the comeback path ez
'eept a very satisfying amount of
money. He has specified big
training gloves In most of his ex-
hlbltlons,. but tomorrow night the
gloves, will average less than ten
- ounces each, plenty light enough
to permit .serious - damage.
Levinsky Ranked
, . Among First , Ten
Levinsky may not be a great
fighter, but he is ranked among
the first ten heavyweight of the
'' country. He Is tough enough to
have beaten Tommy Loughran
and Paulino " Uzcudun,' and he
'gave Prime Camera a rousing
battle before losing a close de-
elslon. For Dempsey a beating
from Levinsky would mean the
end of the trail.
It will be the old mauler's
, first battle In Chicago since Sept.
1927 when he tried and failed to
regain the title from Gene Tun-
ney before the biggest attendance
4 in boxing history in Soldier field.
Capacity Crowd
At Stadium Likely
t The most powerful magnet in
, boxing history, Dempsey has lost
- none of his appeal. Stadium of-
- flcialt expect a capacity attends
ance of more than 22,000 spec
tators, a record indoor crowd for
a- professional fight. Special
. trains will bring in fans from
. Detroit, Milwaukee, Cleveland,
and 'St. Louis, and the gross
r"gate" is ezpected to reach S76,-
000. Of this amount Dempsey can
take sixty per cent and pay Le
' vlnsky $7500 or take 45 per cent,
, leaving 15 per cent for the king
fish. ;i
Toughy Wing Too Tough so
Sparring Partners Strike;
Meets Cadina Here Friday
Tuffy Wing, who meets Ad Ca
dina at the armory Friday night,
had no sparring partners at the
Capitol Athletic club Wednesday
night and had to content himself
with hammering the heavy bag.
Jumping rope and shadow boxing.
Tuffy had tried to be good to
his sparring partners in the pre
vious workouts, but must have
forgotten himself once or twice,
and they failed to return. How
ever, he went right to work and
drilled especially on an open style
which he figures to use in order
to corner his clever opponent.
. Formerly billed as Weldon
Winr. the name of Tuffy was
tacked onto him because he took
on all the tough fighters In Port
land whom the other fighters
evaded.
At the time Tuffy was at his
best and getting better, he had a

Draws Sked
For Season
WOODBURN, Feb. 17 Sched
ules for- the schools that are
members of the newly-organized
Willamette Athletic league, which
was formed at Woodburn recent
ly, have been made out, and were
announced here Tuesday after
noon by Vern D. Bain, who is an
officer of the League.-, Schools In
the League are Molalla, West
Linn, Sllverton, Lebanon, and
Woodburn. The schedules, which
are. for baseball this spring and
for basketball during the 1932
33 season, were made out at a
' meeting of the league which .was
held in Sllverton Saturday.
This spring's baseball schedule
in the league is: West Linn,
April 19; Sllverton, April 2.2;
Lebanon, May 10; and Wood
burn, April 1. For West Linn:
Molalla, May 13; Sllverton, April
8; Lebanon, April 26; and Wood
burn, April 22. For Sllverton:
Molalla, May 20; West Linn,
April 29; Lebanon, April 19; and
Woodburn, April 15. For Leb
anon: Molalla, April 15; West
Linn, April 1; Sllverton, May 3;
and Woodburn, April 29. For
Woodburn, Molalla, April 26;
West Linn, May 20; and. Leban
on. April 8.
.The basketball schedule is as
follows: for Molalla, . West Linn
January ,13; Sllverton, January
20; Lebanon,' February 17, and
Woodburn, December 23. For
West Linn, Molalla, February 10;
Sllverton, December 30; Lebanon,
also says that these punts will be
so high that the kicking side will
be right there and able either to
catch the ball, or to break the re
ceiver la two with wicked tackling.
Now it's true that on good
high punt from scrimmage,
fast pair of ends, if nobody
blocks them, can often drop the
receiver in bis tracks. But those
ends start from 10 yards ahead
of where the ball is kicked, and
on the average, 2J seconds
before the ball is kicked.
There's at least SO yards start
on the ball. Even then they sel
dom have any time to loaf, espe
cially with a good blocker in
the way.
It's true that the new rule al
lowing a punt klckoff will favor
the onside kick; but not to the
10-yard line. With a high punt
that goes' 30 yards, the kicking
I side will have a pretty fair chance
to recover, but hardly an even
chance. The receiving side is in
better position to judge the kick
than team mates of the kicker,
i going down under the ball at top
speed.
There may be some rough
scrambling, but if the kicks are
-long,- we don't expect to see
many receivers "broken in two.'
There will still be siz men hack
there. On the other hand if the '
kicks are short, there'll be so
much uncertainty that the tack
ling cannot be overly vicious.
. However, we do look for a lot
of variety and surprise stuff in
the kickoff, and it won't hurt the
game at all.
Just a month fromnow the
state basketball tournament wUl
be unler way. What teams wiU
be here? Whoever comes, the
teams will average up stronger
than they have the last two
years, somewhat stronger than
last year and a lot stronger

round of that fight young Com-
pagno batted Wing In the jaw with
his head, breaking the jaw in two
places. ' .
For months afterward Wing's
jaw was wired shut to permit
healing and he was forced to live
on liquids imbibed with a straw.
Nevertheless Wing stuck the fight
out with the Italian slugger and
in the eight rounds that followed.
hammered out a draw.
Another time that Wing played
hard luck was in Portland in
1927 when he was billed to meet
Sammy Mandell. The house was a
sellout and a great fight was an
ticipated, but Mandell ran out on
It. states Wing, and immediately
following that Mafldell won the
championshio in the east.
Ad Cadina is a Mezican fighter,
and with that race Tuffy is right
at home. He has fought a num
ber of them, including Nobe Cer
canes and Francie Monroe. One of
the better fighters whom Tuffy
has stopped is Danny Nunes, who
went down before Wing in the
fifth round of a battle- at Santa
Rosa.
Wing has been doing road work
and will weigh in at about 138
pounds for the tight. He has
chosen an open style of fighting
for his match Friday because Ca
dina is a clever fighter who is
always on balance to hit, but Is
hard to corner. Tuffy stated Wed
nesday nlsbt. "It's either his pelt
or mine!"
Cadina is the only fighter yet
who has beaten Baby Joe oans.
In his 36 fights he has scored 15
knockouts. Ad has also beaten
Young Corbett. The young Mezi
can nossesses long arms and a
Salem fight fan who saw him in
Portland recently Btates that he
is in ezecellent fighting trim.
Other fighters who will be here
from Portland are Louie Nelson,
one of Portland's toughest young
sters; Swede Olson and "Bad Boy"
Tompkins.
