ATLANTIC CITY MAY GET BOUT Rumored Wealthy Sportsmen at Summer Resort Want Jack and Georges. PHILADELPHIA, March 25.—The battle between Jack Dempsey and Georges Carpentier for the heavyweight championship of the world may be held at Atlantic City. Information to this effect was dropped here today by a well known sportsman whose name has been withheld, but who asserts the famous seashore resort is certain to get the big bout. He further claims that a number of Philadelphians are backing the plan and that Tex Rickard has lost his grip. Kearns himself gave out the tips several day* ago in New York that "it looks as if New York is about out of the running,” following a conference with Rickard. The whole thing in a nutshell is ttat Kearns does not approve of the sls limit on championship matches in New York. KEARNS TALKS BIG FIGURES. The man who says that Atlantic City .is certain of getting the pugilistic extravaganza Is an intimate friend of Kearns. “I suggested the seashore resort to Kearns as a place for the match several weeks ago,” he said, “and Jack didn't turn me down entirely cold. He said. *Go out and see if you can get $400,000 and you've got the match.’ “Speaking for the others connected with me. we have got that SIOO,OOO, and our backers are men considered to be big flnanaciers in America.” John S. Smith, boxing commissioner of the State of New Jersey, intimated over the long distance phone today that he would indorse the Carpentier-Dempsey bout for Atlantic City. “Os course," he said, “I would approve such a contest, and issue a license for it. There have been several reports that au effort would be made to hold the championship contest at the shore, and at the present I do not see any reason why I would be against it. “I think twelve rounds would be suf ficlent to decide the winner." said Smith. “If Dempsey is going to knock out the Frenchman he should do it within a dozen rounds, and if Carpentier is to show himself a better boxer than the champion he ought to be able to do it in twelve rounds.” EMBRYO STARS RAISE HOPES OF BIG LEAGUERS (Continued From Page Sixteen.) •nd Thomas Whelan, a Boston semi-pro. looks enre to nab the shoes left vacant 'by* Fred Merkle. Whelan played at Notre Dame. Georgetown and Dartmouth and i seaid to be a snappy player. The world’s champion Indians, while they took quite a few young players South for try-outs, will be in good shape when the season starts. Joe Sewell, who broke in and made good last fall after Ray Chapman was killed, will be back, and Manager Speaker expects to see him burn up the league. Jimmy Tierney. Pirate recruit. Is Just about the pick of the flock that George Gibson accumulated to make the veteran yQlnflelders hustle for their jobs, and may land the second base Job. If not, he probably will be utility infielder for the Buccos. The Tigers and Dodgers appear to have landed prize recruits in Southpaw pitchera. Bert Cole of Detroit, who starred with Ban Francisco last season. Is a sure thing, according to reports from Texas, and Uncle Rohby has said a lot of nice things about Sam Post, a sturdy forkhander from Portsmouth. The best bets of some of the other teams appear to be: Athletics—Frank Walker, new outfielder. Senators—Frank Bower, slugger-pitch-er and 1&20 home run ki lg of the International League. Phillies—M. Brugge, a catcher who was with Buffalo last year.

Record Tr j Planned DETROIT, March 25.—With his small cabin cruiser Gar Jr. 11, Gar Wood, hold r of most of the world's speed boat records, will soon attempt a record-break-ing trip from Miami, Fla., to New York along the Atlantic coast, according to word received from Florida. L’nless pros ent plans miscarry the trip will be made May 1 or shortly thereafter. Book Ban Stops Races OTTAWA, 111., March 25.—Ottawa’s horws racing days are over.

Once npon a time a dusky Individual wag taking his employer for a drive along a country road. As they passed along, being expert with his black-snake whip, the old darky was nipping oft the butterflies, the grasshoppers and the bugs from the trees and flowers. Finally they came to a hornet’s nest hanging within easy reach of the whip. “Sam, clip off that hornet's nest," ordered the employer. Sam hesitated a moment, then answered: “No, suh, boss! Not on your life! Them Is organized.” There is a moral In this story which ought to be startingly obvious to the lovers of angling with rod and line and hunting with gun and dog. Thraighout the State Ashing and hunting enthusiasts should organize along permanent and democratic lines for the avowed purpose of saving the fish and game from the commercial interests and the game hog.
