Golfing, dinner and dance engagements flow In on him. Soma of them he finds time to aocept. The good nature for which Dempsey is famous is leading him Into permit-j ting much of his time to be taken up by the curiosity seekers who always flock around a celebrity. Os course, from a financial standpoint it Is good business. The crowds of idlers passing away their play time in the vicinity of Saratoga, flock, at 55 cents a head, into his camp to see the champion maul his sparring mates around. Jack docs not believe that he ■will have to train as strenuously for Firpo as he did for Gibbons. He says: "Training for Firpo will not be 60 hard as for Gibbons. Physical Condition Good "Then I had to overcome the effects of two years’ lay-off. I got into first-class shape for that fight and one month has not taken away anything from my physical condi-' tlon. "Right now I could go In and fight tomorrow. I am going to take It easy until just before the fight, because I do not want to take off | ;ny weight. "Firpo is a Wg man and I don’t want to have to give away any more weight than necessary. "The few’ social engagements that i fill are really good for me, as they help to relieve the deadly monotony of training.

LITTLE JOY FOS TRIBE ON FINAL WESTERN'JAUNT! Hendricks Changes infield,. But East’s Horher Ruins Indians’ Efforts, By Times Special MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 24 —Third Tribe-Miller struggle today, the word "struggle” describes it exai tly from the Indians’ standpoint. They haven't-, won a ball game for a week. years ago Pitcher Dan Tipple, then of the Indians, was sold to the New’ York Americans for SB,OOO. He didn’t make good in the Big Show, but in the opinion of the Hoosiers he is still worth the SB,OOO. Only Four Hits Tipple, now of the Millers,'-did the chuckling for Cantillon Thursday and be it the only four hits. He was slightly wild, passing five, but he struck out seven to make up for the walks. Earl East, mammoth right fielder of the Millers, sailed the ball out of the lot in the fifth inning with two mates aboard and that blow beat the Tribesmen. It was Ca/l’s twenty-sec-ond homer of the season. Eddie Brown got two of the Indians’ four hits, one a homer with one on. The batting slump the Hoosiers are in hasn’t affected Brown, but Brown can't do it all. Infield Is Shifted Petty and Bono twirled for the Hendricksmen, the former dropping out for a hitless pinch hitter in the seventh. Hendricks tried a changed lineup, using Sicking at >short. Yerkea at second and Whelan at first. Kirke was benched. The trip through the West is proving disastrous to the Indians. Their batting eyes are closed.
