Billy Evans Declares Tommy Gibbons Deserves Bout With Jack Dempsey

UPSET BY HARRY greb IS ONLY THINGJN WAY Thinks Size Should Not Enter Into Discussion of Opponent for Champ. By BILLY EVANS AVho will be Jack Dempsey’s next opponent? Will Harry' Wills, admittedly the best of the colored fighters, get the

first crack at the champion? What about Floyd Johnson? Did his win over the veteran Bill Brennan place him in line for consideration? Should any at tention be paid to the demand on the part of Jesse Willard for a return bout. Dempsey won the Champion ship from Willard, and usually a defeated fighter receives considera-

EVANS

tion when seeking a return engagement. A year ago Gibbons was considered a certainty for a Dempsey meeting. Then came the upset by Harry Greb, which coet Gibbons at least SIOO,OOO. He could have easily demanded and received such a sum had it not been for his setback at the hands of Greb. Greb Bout Costly Harry Greb is the most difficult fighter in the world to fathom. He will outpoint most any fighter in the business who fails to land a sleepproducing punch. Prior to the bout with Gibbons I had a talk with Harry before he stepped Into the ring. I asked him how he felt about,the outcome. "Nothing to it unless Gibbons slips one over and stops me. He will see a million or more boxing gloves if the bout goes the limit.” AD of which makes it seem that possibly the public and the promoters are attaching entirely too much importance to Gibbons' defeat by Gj^b. When the mention of a bout b° tween Gibbons and Dempsey is made, the question of siz° is always raised. Some of the ring experts feel that physically Gibbons is not a big enough man to have a chance with Dempsey. Only recently the New York boxing commission vetoed a Dempsey-Gibbons bout for that reason. Such talk is ridiculous. Working along that line of reasoning it was cruelty to let Dempsey step into the ring witli Willard. Jesse towered over Dempsey in every way. There Is no such difference between the physique of Dempsey and Gibbons. Gibbons Is entitled to consideration, as are a number of other heavyweightwho are clamoring for a chance.

The main game is to start at 8 p. m. There will be a curtain raiser between Tech seconds and Shortridge seconds. Coach Black has had better luck with his new combination than with the older players. The probable lineup in Wednesday’s game will be Shultze and Welirel. forwards: Hagaman, center: Feltman and Gordon, guards. Os these players Hagaman is j a freshman, Shultze a senior and the others sophomores. Other men on the squad. Chandler. Clift, Hickman •ind McClain, are sophomores. Hickman is anew player that will be eligible for the coming battles. He is from Vincennes and played with the “Alices” for a few weeks at the start of the season. Vincennes has a magic sound in basket-ball circles and the new player seems to have the stuff to go with the reputation. He is a center. Franklin has had none too successful a season. Injuries and the loss of all its stars has held the team down. It is very likely, however, that Davis and King will he in against , Tech. With these players in the 1 came the State champs are formidable and the Green and White has a •..nigh foe.

HOPPE SHOWS OLD TIE FORM 111 EXHIBITION GAMES j I Fans See Fancy Assortment of Clever Shots as Willie Trims Peterson, This is clever-manipulation-of-the-cue week at. the Occidental parlor and the eyes of Indianapolis billiard fans nearly pop out of their sockets as Willie Hoppe, w'orid’s champion, and. Charles F. Peterson, the fancy shot "wiz," go through afternoon and evening performances. The cue wonders opened a three-day engagement here Monday and they are here for more demonstrations today and Wednesday. Hoppe plainly ehows he has taken off about fifteen pounds and the reduction of poundage has Improved his stroke. He is better able to get around the table. Hoppe is using this exhibition tour as training for a title match with Jake Schaefer to be played in the Pennsylvania Hotel, New York City, In March. It will be a three-night event for 1,500 uoints, 500 points to the block. Hoppe demonstrated his come-from-behind powers Monday night when Peterson had a big lead over him in a 300-point match. The game was going against the champion in the early innings. In the pinch, however, he braced and came through with a long run of 123 and an unfinished run of 63 to win the exhibition, 300 to 230. Hoppe averaged 33 1-3 both afternoon and evening. Peterson’s night average waa 88 5-3 and his afternoon average was 18 V 4.
