Firpo Still Classed as One-Hand Fighter as Clash With Dempsey Impends

LUIS USES BOTH HANDS, THOUGH, IN GETTING COIN Pegler Doubts Challenger's Courage to Stand Up and Take Punishment and Points Out More Crudeness, By WESTBROOK PEGLER, United News Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Sept. 13.—Evven among those who prefer to take their prize fights with a liberal splash of levity, there is a notable straining of the humorous sense at this moment as they are to laugh away another of those million-dollar knuckle conclaves. Tue impending professional amities between Jack Demprc v and Lais Firpo may be only another prize tight after all. and a prize fight isn’t much. But the latest quotations say a million dollars is just one million dollars net, and something for the rarest humor to approach with respect.

One has blown light banter at Luis Firpo from time to time, gently twitting him for his extreme thrift, and his stupendous Ignorance of the socalled sport In which he would now excel the universe. One has made siy reference to the fragrant aura of Jack Kearns, who is addicted to perfumery. The Fact Remains And yet the non-derisible fact remains that these two, acting with Tex Rickard, have rustled up another million dollar prize fight within a space of no more than two months and the wild raspberry cry Is throttled in the public thorax as the thing becomes Imminent. Crude as he is. Luis Firpo has made 5200,000 dollars thus far, and his share of the gate receipts of Friday night, if they run to the expectations which have almost been realized already in the advance sale, certainly should run above 1100,000. In his training camp at Atlantic City, with his country, who were at first Inclined to be secretive and suspicious of all American visitors, no matter how disinterested their missions, Luis Angelo brought himself into super-physical condition, but remained true to his earlier scorn for boxing science. His Defense Is a Rush Firpo is still a one-hand fighter, pitching a right mitt with the -weight of an anvil; and he still has no defense but to rush in and try to hit the other fellow harder than the other fellow can hit him. Firpo probably expects to be hit first, but he thinks he is one of those who can take a punching. The ability to take it is, no doubt, an asset, but the ability to let it alone has always been accounted a more profitable virtue in the prize fight business. But Firpo's conduct when hurt has been rather peculiar for a man who : goes by the trade name of the ‘‘wild I bull.” Jess Willard, with a mere left j jab on the nose, made Firpo abandon [ his right swing for most of two i rounds and fall into clinches for peace and meditation. Os course Willard s long jab is no soothing caress, but neither is it the shocking jolt of Jack j Dempsey’s left hook, delivered with the power of a forearm as th'ek as an ordinary man's calf and as quick as a fang. Was Hurt by Brennan Bill Brennan never meant any harm i to any one, but in his rough, goodnatured way he batted Firpo a few times acres* the nose and cut open cne of Luis Angelo’s eyes when they fought in New York last winter. About the middle of t|ie fight, between rounds, there were sounds of controversy in Luis Angelo’s corner and ’ it was reported that he was looking for the springboard. Jimmy De Forest had to blast to get Luis Angelo j cut of the corner for the eighth round, j Firpo confounds his advisors. ‘‘When I try to box. I get hit,” he said Wednesday. When I fight, I hit so hard that ihey cannot hit me. See, I have not the cauliflower ear. My nose is not broken. My teeth are all here. I have done well my own way. I have beaten them all but Dempsey. Why should I try to box?” And so Luis Angelo, if he wins the title from Dempsey, will he a most Interesting anamoly—the champion boxer of the world and the worst boxer in the world at one and the same time.

ITEM FAIL 10 GET ’EM SAFE OFF NEW HURLER Bradshaw of Hens Beats the Home Crew—Whelan Soon to Leave, Manager Terry of the Toledo Hens used a big youth named Bradshaw against the Indians in the series opener at Washington Park Wednesday. and said big youth, held the Indians to four hits and one run. The Hens scored four runs. Bradshaw displayed a good change of pace and has the earmarks of a real hurler. In holding the Tribesmen to four hits, however, he had some luck with him. The Indians crashed the hall hard many times, but it went on the dead line into an opposing fielder's hands. Danielly .Stars All three of the Hen outfielders hooked vicious liners and Danielly in the middle garden covered an acre of ground. He appeared 'to be riding a motorcycle with his glove serving as a side car. * The Hens scored two markers in the second and two in the third. The Indians crossed the plate for their only run in the second, when Whelan an-, Campbell negotiated a nifty double steal, the former scoring. Bill Burwell was found for nine hits, a few being of the scratch variety. Barbare Crashes Homer In the third inning Barbara clouted a home run with his manager on base. Barbare also poled a double. For the Indians Tom Whelan socked a triple and double. Sickifig was out of the game because of -a suspension by Prez Hickey. Whelan will leave the club in a few days. He Is to be an assistant football coach at Washington State College, Pullman, Wash., and must hustle out there to teach the padded warriors a few tricks. The second of the Hen-Tribe series was on at the ball yard this afternoon.

Sept. 13.—This city is almost as excited over its two major league baseball teams at the close of the 1923 season as it was at this time last year, when it looked as if a pennant might be in store for the local fans. Internal troubles over discipline are current both among the Cards and the Browns, involving some of the best known men In each club. Urban Shocker, pitching ace for the American Leaguers, became the latest victim Wednesday when he was suspended for the balance of the season. without pay. The moundsman is reported to have resented a recent club ruling prohibiting ball players from taking their wives along on trips. The auspension is only optional with Shocker, how ever, according to Bill Friel, business manager, who says the pitcher can come back with the team whenever he will agree to abide by the rules. This new instance of dissension among the Browns follows closely the release by Manager Rickey of the Cardinals of Eddie Ainsmith. veteran catcher, who "missed a train.” and the reported fist fight between Rickey and Rogers Hornsby.
