M the DOPE By YEDDERGARD

mF we’ve had one we’ve had a dozen ask us if we’d read the account in Collier’s last week about Jack Kearns trying to persuade Jim Maloney, Boston heavyweight, to double-cross his own manager and sign up with him (Kearns) and become champion of the world and a rich man. Bill Cunningham of the Boston Post is the author of the article which says Kearns told Maloney that he would “smoke his reputation up” in some fight3 with third raters in New York and later in a series of movies after which Maloney would be matched with Dempsey for the title. Then as the date of tlic fight drew nigh, Cunningham declares, Kearns promised to arrange for Dempsey to pass tho crown over to the Boston heavy, saying “I have been away from the ling too long.” The happy ending is that Maloney decided to stick to his boyhood pal McGrath, his manager, and rely on the force of his fists to win the title some future day. The story is very probably true. In fact, the managing editor of Colliers announced that if Kearns wished to dispute the matter in court the owners of the magazine would be pleased to meet Jack there. Very likely nothing much will come of it. Kearns can deny it. Nothing much more than conversation passed between the interested parties. The public doesn’t doubt a great deal that Kearns did attempt to get Maloney under his wing and made rash promises. t Mr. Kearns’ ethics on various occasions have not seemed lily white. But there is one thing nobody seems to think about—that is the national publicity given to Maloney by the him more attention than slick, shrewd Kearns himself could have put across. Maloney is played up big in the Boston papers. And we do not say he is not good. We don’t know. Monday night he got a decision over King Solomon, a pretty good scrapper. Boston, you know, hasn’t such an enviable reputation in sport ranks itself. It is a headquarters for sport gambling. And Boston loves its own even more than Podunk Corners. It is a trait of the Beantown press noticed as late as the open golf tourney this year. Boston was vitally interested in the outcome until Ouimet was put out. Then all enthusiasm died. Some of the statements in the Collier article -were, at least, decidedly flattering to Maloney. They were the kind of things managers like to see in print about their fighters. And the story went from coast to coast. Jim Maloney is more or less of a national figure right now, (hanks to Bill Cunningham, who spread the glad tidings about a wonderful Boston boy so honest and so good who was lured by k the bad Mr. Kearns. * * *

He arrived from across the sea just ahead of time for the international competition. He believed his sea legs would be better than his readjusted land ones. In a previous trip to this country for the Pennsy Relay Carnival this spring he thought he felt better upon arriving than after a week’s acclimating. The new plan worked all right Saturday in the 220-yard dash, which he won. Maybe he felt the boat rolling down at this time.

Many a track athlete has said he’d rather run a mile for nothing than walk a mile even for a cigaret. Walking in competition is a real science and not many understand it. A competent judge is needed to assure contestants who comply with the regulations a fair deal over those who are ignorant of the restrictions or trying to slip something over. The heel must come down first and the knee is required to be straight as the step forward is taken. Fast walking is the most tiresome on the list of track events.

GOLFERS IN MATCH BATTLES Thirty-One Players After Western Amateur Crown of Harrison Johnston. Bu United Press LOCHMOOR COUNTRY CLUB. DETROIT, July 15.—Thirty-one golfers whom - young Dexter Cummings, intercollegiate star, led to qualification in the first two days’ play of the western amateur golf championship, hooked up today in eighteen-hole match play along with Harrison Johnston, the defending champion from St. Paul, for the title. For the third consecutive time the day opened without much wind. A blanket of clouds kept the sun’s rays from falling so direct upon the players. Cummings' performance over the two days when he made a record 68 and 70 for 138, leading his nearest rivals by seven strokes, was the outstanding feat of the medal play. Ruddy Knepper of Chicago and R. A. Stranahan, Toledo, were tied for second place honors with 145 and only nine strokes behind these two were bunched the entire field. First round matches began at 9 o’clock today with Harrison R. Johnston, the defender, taking on Rial Rolfe, of Chicago. Jimmy Manion, St. Louis star, went out third with Keefe Carter of Oklahoma City. Cummings was to play Russell Martin and Chick Evans took on Lee Bunning of Chicago. TAYLOR IN AURORA GO Bu United Press AURORA, 111., July 15.—Bud Taylor, Terre Haute bantamweight, will be one of the principals in the windup of a boxing show here July 31, according to Promoter Mullen, who declared he will sign the “best bantamweight available” as Taylor’s opponent.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

RISKO IN ANOTHER MAIN GO Cleveland Heavy at Harrison Next Week—-Atherton and Lavelle Win. By Eddie Ash John Risko, aggressive Cleveland heavyweight, has been booked for a return engagement at Ft. Benjamin Harrison arena Tuesday night, July 21. Risko, who knocked out Butch Carr here recently, again will appear in a main event, this time with Jack McDonald, Jamestown (N. Y.) heavyweight. In the jemt-winri-up July 21 lArry Posen, Toledo middleweight, will go eight rounds with Eddie Staten. Louisville. Prelim bouts will be announced later. Good Show Given. A swarm of fistic followers packed the outdoor arena Tuesday night to witness this week's show and the fans viewed a splendid bill. Happy Atherton was awarded the decision over Harry Forbes in ten rounds; Louie Lavelle punched and battered Tommy Milton for ten rounds: Johnny Walker outpointed Wallie Patterson in eight rounds and Tommy O’Laughlin outfought Abe Kabakoff in eight sessions. George Grammell, Terre Haute, refereed and gave the verdicts. And the referee didn’t miss hi? shots. Forbes Gets IJcked Atherton surprised many fans by outpointing the speedy Forbes, not by a wide margin, but wide enough to earn the honors. Happy weighed 114 and Forbes 115. It was an interesting fight between light-hitting little fellows. Lavelle mauled Milton, the wellknown punch catcher, and was still dealing out hard punishment when the tenth round ended. Johnny Walker and Wallie Patterson staged eight rounds of scrappy going and the fans received much action out of this go. Walker scored one knockdown, Patterson taking nine.

FRANKIE GENARO SLATED FOR DEAD BOY’S TITLE N. Y. Commission to Recognize Gotham Lad as Flyweight Champ Following Villa’s Passing. By Henry L. Farrell l nited Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, July 15.—Little Frankie Genaro, from that section of the East Side known as “Little Italy,” will be recognized as the new world’s flyweight champion at the next meeting of the New York boxing commission.

William Muldoon, senior member and former chairman of the commission, said today he had no doubt the little fellow who won the Olympic flyweight championship for the United States at Antwerp in 1920 was entitled to succeed Pancho Villa, the former champion, whose career was ended by death Tuesday in -San Francisco, Villa died during an operation for throat infection. Has Fine Record There is no question that Genaro is entitled to appointment or recognition as the new champion. He has to his credit one victory over the former champion, among others in the class. There are not enough good little fellows among the flyweight to take part in an elimina* i, 'n tournament. It is a freak class where few can make the weight for long. Jimmy McLarnin, on the coast, must be a good little fellow as he ben* Villa July 4, but he is oaicl to ’ - filling out so rapidly that he may be in the featherweight cla*> by the time he reaches his majority. Genaro Willing Boxer So, the best thing the commission could do would be to announce Genaro as the possessor of the title and tell him to go out and defend it —and he would. Villa was one of the most colorful of all the boxers. He had a passion for music and for clothes. He

The Tribesmen were carded to open a round of struggles with the Millers here today in a series that will extend through Saturday. After the contests here, the Indians will move to St. Paul to battle the Saints. The Tribesmen were idle Tuesday and during their one-day's vacation they were passed by the Kansas City Blues. In fourth place now, the Hoosiers are only a few points ahead of the Millers. Unless the over-worked pitching staff recovers from the battering received in Kansas City and Milwaukee, when ten games were played in seven days and only six hui let's available, the Bushmen doubtless will slip more and fall into the second division., BOXERS GET THEIR COIN Physician’s Report Shows Berlen* bach Fractured Hand in Bout.

Trap Stars “Bear Down” in Annual State Title Competition at Indianapolis Gun Club. Trapshooters in the State tourney at the Indianapolis Gun Club put forward their best today in an effort to win the most coveted of honors in the tourney, the singles championship. Each entrant shot at 200 of the little clay disks as they whizzed in all directions from the trap.

It was a test of consistent accuracy. One let up and the chance to win was lost. A large entry assured plenty of j competition for M. E. Dewire of Hamilton. Ind., who won the title last year. Dewire got 190 out of 200 on Tuesday in the preliminary and class shoots. He was topped by eleven others. -But today's the day.
