Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, Feb. 20—Some one around the Garden suggested that I ought to talk with Bobby Dawson. "He’s the first guy who fought Gene Tunney in a professional ring. You can get a good story out of him.” So Mr Dawson dropped around. He laid his business card on mv desk. It read: "Bobby Dawson, expert licensed orthopedic masseur.” And on the reverse side: "Bobby Dawson is a former boxer who has fought some of the best boys In the country, Including Gene Tunney. "ndefeated heavyweight champion. Moreover. "Bobby Dawson has conditioned Jack Britton. Bammv Mandell. Harry Oreb. Leon Errol and others.” Mr. Dawson carried with nim a cony of a weekly magazine in which the Tunnev autobiography is being currently presented. "There are some things he says in here that ain’t so.” remarked Mr. Dawson unfolding three detached, rumpled page? "I ought to know as much about that fight as he does, because I was there, too.” Mr. Dawson then proceeded to read aloud from the Tunnev article. "I found mvself sharing a dressing room with K. O. Eggers. who said, “this Dawson Is a tough fellow but not clever’. I boxed him lour years ago and gave him an awful beating for ten rounds.” Mr Dawson paused. ‘Now that aln t o. ’Eggers never beat me. I beat him. And I wasn’t tough. Fact is. people used to '•all me ’Gentleman Bobby*. X was pretty clever, too. Take a look at mv ears. You don’t see no cauliflowers, do you? Ain’t that proof enough that I clever?” Mr Dawson continued to read: "This knowledge (from Eggers! though given In the best of faith, did not add to mv confidence. I weighed for this natch about 140 pounds and was lust eighteen. "I gotta laugh at that.” said Mr. DawSon. Mr. Dawson laughed. 140! ho weighed all of 155. and what was I? Just a lightweight. 132 pounds at the most. At the most. I’m telling vou.” To make It emphatic Mr Dawson repeated at the most he weighed 132 pounds.

RETURNING to the frayed pages Mr. Dawson read a paragraph appertaining to the weighing in formalities: “Come on, I want to see what you Weigh,” growled Dawson. "That ain’t right, either. People who know me will tell you I never growled at anybody in my life. Ask Leon Errol. I’ve been rubbing him for fifteen years. He won’t let anybody else rub him. Says they don’t know what rubbing is." Mr. Dawson read some more: . "Toward the end of the seventh round 1 haDnened to catch Dawson coming In ■with a wild uopercut which knocked him down. The count reached nine when the bell rant!. He did not come up for the Cl "There/s n< a lot of things wrong with that.” insisted Mr. Dawson N *asn t the eighth round, it was the ninth, and it wasn’t that X didn’t 9, om ® j D t bell, the referee stopped it. and I was on tnv ioet still' in there trying. . . I wanted to know if the referee should have stopped the fight. aKnllt . "Aw. there wasn’t any auestion about me being smacked aroufld. I was being smacked around plenty. But what I -an t understand is whv Tunnev don t get tnese things straight if he’s going to write apout th Mr Dawson took the thumb marked sheets and folded them carefully. "I don’t want to appear as if X am putting in the ran for Tunnev. Healways been o>tev with me. I remember teiling him that night after ne naa smacked me around that he was going to be a champion. Even in those days ne was a good boxer, and smart and no ouitter. „ * m course, I never expected to kJ see him trotting around with the high society birds and ranking with the millionaires.

PURDUE 1$ FAVORITE /? 1/ United Press CHICAGO, Feb. 20.—Undisputed lead in Big Ten basketball—perhaps for a few days only—hinges on tonight's contest between Northwestern, defending champions, and a dangerous challenger, Purdue, on the Boilermakers’ own floor. The speedy, clever Boilermakers, pre-season favorites to wrest the title from Northwestern, were expected to fulfill that prediction tonight. Each has lost one game this season. Northwestern, however, has won seven to Purdue’s five. The strongest combinations possible will be put on the floor by each, with individual contests expected between the two scoring aces. Joe Reiff, Northwestern’s all-America forward, and Johnny Wooden, Purdue's all-America guard. Reiff is leading the conference in individual scoring but Wooden has a better average. If the title defenders lose this game they still may beat Purdue on the home floor later, but Northwestern must also play Ohio State and Michigan away from Evanston. The Wildcats defeated both—by one point margins—on their own court. Purdue, however, has a longer, more intensive schedule remaining. Michigan will attempt to stay in third place, behind the Boilermakers. by beating Illinois at Champaign.

Whitney is the grandson of William Whitney, who raced the first filly to victory in the Derby In 1915, The younger Whitney retains the silks of his grandfather, and sentimentally, and also on two-year-old records, Top Flight is called upon to do what no other filly has done since Regret’s day. Tick On Strong But there is to be no walkaway for this game filly. The Greentree stables of Mrs. Payne Whitney, whoe Twenty Grand won in 1931 and established a track record, has nominated six possible starters; E. R. Bradley’s Belair Stud has named four; Three D’s stock farm has named four, and three each have been named by C. V. Whitney, Brookmeade stable and Mrs. John Hay Whitney. Top Flight was the undisputed champion of her division last year. She met and vanquished all comers, setting anew mark for juvenile earnings. She is the favorite in all Derby winter books. Tick On, winner of the Saratoga Hope for Mrs. Louis G. Kaufman’s Loma stable, looms as Top Flight’s most dangerous threat. They staged thrilling battles as juveniles. Lucky Tom Improves

John J. Robinson’s Lucky Tom rates as third choice. He has filled out nicely over the winter and has been sweeping all before him in New Orleans. Burning Blaze, a fleet-footed son of Big Blaze from the Shandon farm, is another strong possibility. He won six of his twelve starts as a juvenile, earning $83,625 to take second place in the list of 2-year-old money winners for the year. The western colt has yet to prove his ability to go a route, however.

Dempsey Maps Plans for Major Ring Test in July

BY GEORGE KIRKSEY, United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Feb. 20.—Jack Dempsey was more determined than ever today to make a success of his comeback campaign. Dempsey had no alibi to offer for his loss of a newspaper decision to King Levinsky Thursday night, but it developed Friday that he has been suffering from a cold for weeks, which has settled in his chest. Dempsey plans for the future are: 1. Continue the present tour until sometime in April. 2. Take a month’s rest. 3. Establish a training camp about Mav where he can train uninterrupted for six weeks or two months. 4. Fight a leading contender, probably Primo Camera, Max Baer or King Levinsky, in a tuneup bout in July. “I am positive that Dempsey’s efforts in his comeback campaign will surprise the most skeptical critic before the summer is over,” Leonard Sacks, Dempsey’s manager, announced. “Dempsey has been busier on this tour than I had intended him to be. He has attended outside functions, visited hospitals, and appeared wherever and whenever the public demanded. Change of food, strange beds, sleeper jumps and shaking hands with thousand of well-wishers have proved a strain on him.

Tuesday night Wiggins will return to the local ring wars and will meet Benny Touchstone of Detroit in the ten-round main event of the legion mitt show at the armory.

The bout was staged at Springfield, 111.

a hard right jolt to the jaw. Only forty-seven seconds of the round had elapsed when Townsend was out. The end was unexpected, because the Vancouver boxer had won the first round, giving Ran a terrific body beating. Ran weighed 147; Townsend, 145. In the other feature ten-rounder, Chick Devlin, San Francisco middleweight, easily won the decision over Young Terry of Trenton, N. J. Devlin’s victory entitles him to a bout with the National Boxing Association’s new champion, Gorilla Jones.

“I am satisfied with his progress to date and he is satisfied with himself. When the time comes for Jack to meet a major foe in an important bout over the distance with six-ounce gloves, he will be in 100 per cent better condition than he was in the Levinsky match. “I don’t want to take any credit away from Levinsky. He can punch and is decidedly a heavyweight contender. Three or four more opponents like Levinsky in four-round bouts is what Dempsey needs to tighten him up.”

Notre Dame Noses Out Bulldog Quintet for Twelfth Win in Row

Sensational Rally Gives Irish Cagers Triumph Over Butler Before 8,000 Fans; Brilliant Offensive Play, Stubborn Defense Features Rivalry Tussle. Notre Dame's brilliant cage pastimers were South Bend bound today with their twelfth consecutive triumph, a hard-earned 37 to 32 decision over Tony Hinkle’s courageous Butler Bulldogs. A sensational spurt in the closing minutes of a hectic battle gave the Irish the verdict before more than 8,000 fans at the Fairview coliseum Friday night. It was a classic struggle between two great teams. The local Bulldogs, decided underdogs before action opened, scored from the mediocrity which has marked their recent play and exhibited the best orand of ball shown this season.

From start to finish the rivals fought on nearly even terms in an almost perfectly-played contest. The swift passing, fast breaking Irish offensive, with big Ed Krause shining at the foul line pivot, was matched by the Bulldogs’ hard driving, speedy and machine-like thrusts which sent Chadd, Proffitt, Miller and Davis smashing under the nets for points. Bulldogs Top Averaged Tony Hinkle’s proteges held a decided edge in the shooting average, connecting on twelve out of thirty-eight field attempts, and seven of eleven gratis offerings. Notre Dame tallied fourteen out of fifty-four chances from the field, and a<jded five points in eleven charity efforts. After Tackett had cracked the scoring ice with a free throw, Notre Dame stepped into a 6 to 1 lead when Crowe and Krause hit the first two field goal attempts of the game nad Newbold added another from under the hoop. Open Fast Attack Butler rallied to knot the count, but Notre Dame pulled away again and with less than a minute to play, held a 14 to 10 advantage. Blue plays clicked twice and Davis and Chadd swept under the net for fielders to knot the count, 14-14 at the intermission. Changing their style of attack, the Bulldogs rushed into action in the final period and swept into a 25 to 16 advantage in the first five minutes. Searle Proffitt, who had performed brilliant, scoring four field goals and dividing defensive laurels with the brilliant Marshall Tackett, was forced to the sidelines on personal fouls, and this proved a break for the Irish. De Cook Ties Count Krause and Nebold flipped in onehanders, and then the fireworks started. The rivals swept up and down the court, and with five minutes left, Butler led, 32 to 28. Leo Crowe counted from long range and De Cook tied the count with a close-in two-pointer. With the count tied at 32-32, Chadd missed a free throw. Voegele made good on ohe of his two charity offers, however, and a minute of play remained. Grabing the tip-off, Voegele sped down the floor and looped in a freak overhand shot as he was shoved toward the sidelines.
