KEEN COMPETITION EXPECTED IN STATE COLLEGE MEET SATURDAY

HEAVIES SET FOR CONFLICT Boston Rivals Clash Thursday for Right to Mix With Dempsey. By Henry L. Farrel United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, May 18. Tex Rickard's genius in manufacturing million dollar gates will get its first real application of the year in the Yankee stadium, Thursday night Vhen the two Boston heavyweights, Jim Maloney and Jack Sharkey, meet in the first of two bouts intended to lead to a world heavyweight championship match. _ The winner will meet Jack Dempsey and the survivor will go into the ring early in the fall against the champion, Gene Tunney. Right here the opinion might be expressed that the championship match will be fought by the same principles who fought the Sesqui lecord breaker, Dempsey and Tunney. Maloney Flavored Maloney looks like the winner Thursday night and Dempsey ought to beat him when they meet. If Sharkey wins from Maloney, Dempsey ought to beat him. The Maloney-Sharkey contest is not billed as a million dollar attraction, but it is a part of a series that ought to bring in close to three million dollars. Rickard expects the gate Thursday night to be between $400,000 and $500,000 and if the winner should make a sensational showing—something that isn't to be expected—he would make a million dollar attraction with Dempsey. Then Dempsey with the winner would pack any stadium in the country. Not Deadly Punchers Maloney probably will weigh 203 pounds Thursday and Sharkey says he will be around 188. For all their bulk, neither is a deadly puncher, however. Maloney is a slight favorite in the betting, although very little betting is being done. Many of the smart bugs figure the contest a toss-up. Fred Lucas, formerly of Columbus of the American Association, joined the Mobile Bears recently.

LIKE the fellow in the song, I "never saw the sun shining so bright never saw things going so right.” For I’ve found Prince Albert and complete pipe-enjoy-ment. I thought I knew all about pipes and pipe-smoking. I had no idea what a change for the better P. A. would be. What a treat it was to open the tidy red tin and free that wonderful Prince Albert fragrance! To a pipe-hungry man, no other aroma ever came within a mile of that. I could hardly wait to tumble a load into the bowl of my jimmypipe and light up. And then • • • that marvelous taste!
