Norfolk Accused of Doing Canvas Dive for Wills* Benefit Fans Howl Disapproval of Manner in Which Colored Bout Ends. By HENRY FARRELL. NEW YORK, March 3.—When Georges Carpentter knocked out Bat Levinsky, the verdist of the fans was “bad .-natch; should never been made.” The same thing Is being Bald today about the folk thing last night In Madison Square Garden. Both fights were closely related. Both were parts of a “smoke-up” for another world’s championship fight. Carpenner nnd Wills were called upon to prove that they were good enough for Dempsey. They both knocked out the man selected —by Jack Kearnsy-and they both were discredited. . , . , The Carpentter-Levinsky fight looked on the level, however. The Wills-Nor-folk thing looked exactly like a “frame. Not a fan of the 10,000 In the Garden saw the blow struck. One of the Judges said it was “terrible,” and the house agreed. • „ Norfolk was looking for the pillows In the first round. He took e. couple of hard Jolts from the huge Wills and looked over to Leo Flynn in his corner with an expression akin to horror. He lasted through the first round, but It was apparent the boys would be home early. Just after the gong for the second round, both were in a clinch. Suddenly Norfolk curled up, sank to the floor and rolled over. It looked as if he was on his feet at the count of ten and Norfolk seemed surprised when waved to his corner. , The fans didn’t know what it was all about and they let It be known that they didn’t think much of it. Kid McPbartland, the referee, said the knockout came from a “six-inch right uppercut to the jaw.” How he saw the blow Is a mystery because his back was almost turned. The thing happened right in front of the writer and he saw no blow struck Even If Norfolk really did take one, the blow must have been put over in a clinch or when they were going out of one. Wills had been warned about clinching and hitting in clinches. When Norfolk jumped to his feet, his head was clear despite the “knock out’’ blow and a terrific Jolt his head got on the ring door when he took his flop. The same “smoke up“ proceedure is *eing used for the Dempsey-Wills fight that Carpentier had to go through with. According to all interested Wills Is Just the opponent for Dempsey and beyond all doubt he’ll get the roll of the next victim. Last night's fight meant nothing Wills didn't show a thing. But that’s not necessary. The Dempsey-Willis thing is all smoked up and ready to go some place. Turner Actives Annex 140-Pound Net Honors The Turner Actives won the city 140pound basket-ball championship Thursday night by defeating the Meteors in the final game, 32 to 11.

LEGION BOXING SEATS ON SALE Tickets Ready and Forfeits Up for Downey-Block Bout Ma'rch 13. Tickets for The American Legion benefit boxing (jbow at Tomlinson Hall, on March 13, will go on sale tomorrow morning at Clark and Cade's Claypool I Hotel drug store and at Goldsmith's drug- store -at Illinois and Ohio streets. The seat sale will open at II o’clock. The decision to open two box offices was made by the Legion committee because of the heavy mail order seat salt, which indicates ( a great demand. It is predicted that a crowd equal to that which packed Tomlinson Hall at the opening boxing show given by the Elks, will witness the all-star card which the Legion has provided. The proceeds of the show will go to the Legion serrice fund for disabled and unemployed exsoldiers. The receipt of signed contracts and forfeit money from both Bryan Downey and Ted Block, at Legion boxing headquarters, positively assures the appearance of these two star middlewelghts in the main events This is the first time since Bryan DowneJ- broke into the “big show” that he has appeared on a popu-lar-priced boxing card, and it was only through the willingness of his manager, Jimmy Dunn, to co-operate with the American Legion that he was secured. Ever since Downey virtually won the middleweight title from Champion Johnny Wilson last fall at Cleveland, by knocking out the title holder in the seventh round, Downey has been a major attraction. < The record ot Ted Block marks him as a most worthy opponent for the Clevelander. Block has met practically every first class middleweight in the country with the exception of Downey and Wilson, and Mara Shaughnessy, Block's manager, has been angling for the match fori several months. Among Block's victims, are Pat Bishop, Jack McCarron, Frankie Breman, George Chip, and many others. In the six-round preliminary on tho Legion card, the great local favorite, Bobby Bridges, will meet Billy Daulton, of Kokomo. Bridges’ showing In his two tjng appearances at Tomlinson Hall has made him a host of friends. In Daulton, however, Bobby Is taking on the best battler he has faced as yet. The boys will weigh In at 142 pounds at 3 o’clock. Daulton is a rugged boxer of the rushing type. He packs a heavy wallop In either hand, and advance word from Kokomo states that Daulton Is coming down prepared to give Bridges a great battle. In addition to the main event of ten rounds, and the six-round BridgesDaulton scrap, there will be an eight round seml-windup of high caliber, and a four round curtain raiser, making a total of twenty-eight rounds of fast milling. Indianapolis boys will be seeu in aclion in ail three of the opening -bouts against carefully chosen opponents. 4 Cancel Swim Meet BLOOMINGTON, lnd.. March 3.—The De Pauw-lndlana swimming meet, scheduled for Saturday night, has been canceled by Coach Fred Walker of De Pauw. who notified officials here that most of the Tiger splashers were either sick or ineligible on account of low grades.
