United Press Sport Critic Sees Former Champ the Victor Tonight. VISITED BOTH CAMPS Forms Glowing Opinion of Dempsey’s Condition. By HENRY L. FARRELL, United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, July 21.—After watching the two fighters in training, after listening to the conversations of their managers, thentrainers, their rubbers, their sparring partners and their hangerson —the opinion of the writer is that Jack Dempsey will win from Jack Sharkey when they meet tonight in the Yankee Stadium. Dempsey said in Saratoga, before he came to New York, that he expected to win in three rounds by a knockout, but that if the fight went the limit- he was sure to win the decision in fifteen rounds. Wednesday afternoon, after Sharkey had gone through a rub down and some gym exercises in Tex Rickard’s Garden, he said he was going to win just as soon as he could punch his way through to it. Buckley’s View But Johnny Buckley, his manager, warned “we’re betting that we win in eight rounds and we’re betting all the money we have Jfchat Sharkey will not be on the floor once during the fight.” Buckley’s last minute statement that Sharkey was sure to win in eight rounds was taken to mean that Sharkey was going out to box with Dempsey and that he would not be reckless enough to step out and punch with him. The betting odds had Sharkey a seven to five favorite on the theory that he would go out against Dempsey as he did against Maloney and use his boxing against him. But Sharkey is so cocky that the smart betters feared he would go out and start to trade punches with the former champion. Dempsey Stronger Hitter All the experts figure that if Sharkey goes out to swap punches With Dempsey he will be sure to lcse, because Dempsey is on record with a punch that can knock out any opponent in one swing, and Sharkey never has stopped one of his opponents with one puwfch. In his training camp at Saratoga, Dempsey looked as well as or better than he did in Atlantic City, and he assured all his newspaper friends that he was ready for the best fight of his life. I think Jack Sharkey is so cocky he will go out to swing punches with Dempsey from the first round, and that if he does that he will be in great danger of being stopped. Sharkey’s Left Good Sharkey is a good boxer, however, and if he goes out to fight along the. lines his manager, Johnny Buckley, intimated, he can win. Sharkey has one of the best left hands that any heavyweight has in the profession today. He murdered Jim Maloney with it. But Sharkey is so confident and so cocky that he may go out and swap punches with Dempsey, and if he does, he hasn’t a chance. Sharkey has only been fighting since 1924, and we do not believe that in that short time he has picked up enough experience to enable him to go out and fight against a former champion like Jack Dempsey.

Dempsey Can Beat Any Man Alive —Loughran

Bj/ NEA Service NEW YORK, July 21.—Supposing Dempsey and Tunney fight again? That question is causing a lot of chatter in and about the cauliflower circles as this Dempsey-Tunney-Sharkey business goes on. Tommy Loughran, the clean-cut, smart-looking young man, who belongs to the new school that is crowding out the old “plug-ugly” pans of the past, can discuss boxing as keenly and impersonally as a professor analyzing chemistry. ‘“How about Dempsey versus Tunney again?” he was asked. He looks speculative for a moment

Following men please note: Shaver. Broks, Sullivan, Coley. Bucqner, McDaniels, Trefry. Gartner, Genler, Everroad and Dietz and any third baseman, shortstop and pitcher. Manager of the Bridgeport team is urged to call Drexel 3250 immediately and ask for Lawrence. The Fideltis team will play the Y. M. S. Sunday at Garfield diamond No. 3 at 3 o clock. All players are requested to be present at park not later than 2 p. m. FRENCH DISAPPOINTED By United Press PARIS, July 21.—Withdrawal of France from the 1928 Olympic games to be held at Amsterdam has aroused resentment among French athletes and plans were under way today to force the committee to change its decision. The French Olympic committee announced it would not be represented either at Amsterdam or at the winter sports carnival at St. Moritz, because the senate adjourned without voting necessary credits. BREWERS AGAIN B 'MILWAUKEE, July 21.—A fiverun rally in the seventh won for Milwaukee when they defeated Louisville, 10 to 3. Eddleman, who pitched for the Brewers, started the rally that won the game. None of the three Colonel runs was earned.

Bust of Ty Cobb Proves Bust to Sculptor

By United Press DETROIT, July 21.—While city officials and an irate sculptor sought far and wide Wednesdapfor an unknown enthusiast who ordered a work of art, a clay bust of Ty Cobb, the first step toward a projected statue of the baseball player was crumbling for lack of attention. Nilson Tregor, Russian sculptor, said someone ordered the bust of Cobb last spring after a dinner givby Ty by his Detroit friends. Mayor Smith said he remembered vaguely that someone suggested a statue be made and put in a city park. He suggested several persons who might have had something to do with it, but they all said it was someone else. Tregor said the statue, of which the best bust is an integral part, would cost around $20,000 including his fee and materials. But no one has turned up to claim the distinction of fostering the philanthropy.

and then came this interesting reply. “I dislike making any more predictions. I led a lot of my friends wrong on *that last fight. I don’t want to do it again. I can’t help but believe though, if Dempsey Is In even the condition he was in training at Atlantic City, he can whip any man alive.” All this from the man who fought Tur>ney to a draw—some papers gave him the decision—in eight rounds In ’22 at Philadelphia. He was only 19 then. He is 24 now and the outstanding contender for the light-heavyweight title. “Dempsey,” says Loughran, “I’ve always contended and still contend is the greatest fighter that ever lived. I don’t know what was the matter with him at Philadelphia.” Then he grinned and turned around as a parting shot. “Get me straight. I’m not predicting now. Deep down in my heart I think, and I’m telling you, Jack Dempsey'can whip any man alive—and that includes Gene Tunney!”

He kept whipping a piston like right hand to the veteran’s body, he outboxfed him, and he beat him to the punch.
