By Joe Williams ana Normile Smart Manager a a a He Looked After Finance a * * Dempsey Handled Fighting

>TEW YORK. May 22.—Dempsey and his manager are in town. K A few years ago that would have been significant in prize fight circles. Todav it means that the manager is herp getting readv to open a book at Belmont, that the fighter is resting up between tank town engagements. That's how' things change. ... I don't refer to the manager who is generally associated with Dornpsev—the man who supposedly made him what he was at xOledo. I refer to a pudgy, double-chinned Irishman named Normile. Kearns may have made Dempsey, although I have a suspicion the fellow had quite a bit to do with making himself. Nevertheless. Normile pulled him through one of the toughest phases of his career. That was before, during and after the first Tunney fight. a a a ana I DON'T suppose there ever was a fighter who was more beleaguered from so many different angles as was Dempsey in those days. To begin with, he was practically broke and making a comeback. Second, he was coming back without Kearns who in the past had handled all his affairs. Third, he was being bombarded by court actions at every turn. Normile was more of a social friend than a fight manager. He had good business sense, a certain shrewdness, but he wasn't important in the training camp, or later in the corner. As it turned out, Normile could have been the greatest corner man in the world and yet done Dempsey no good. The fight was that one-sided. What Normile did do for Dempsey was to collect and deposit e' - er cent that was coming to him in the face of a small army of sheriffs led by Kearns. A few moments before Dempsey weaved out of his corner that rainy night in Philadelphia to walk directly into a stiff poke In the pan his brother was collecting his end of the purse in full out in Los Angeles. Normile had gotten the money from Rickard and wired it west. Meantime the complacent Kearns and representatives of the law were sitting at the ringside waiting for the proper moment to make their move. When they finally made their move they learned about the existence of Normile. They had been outsmarted by a busher. ana ana NORMILE remains unconvinced that Dempsey wasn’t doped. To most of us that was a laugh in the beginning and in retrospect still is. But Normile will always believe the old Man Mauler w'as given a pill. He tells you Dempsey couldn’t pull his shoes off before undressing to go into the ring—he was that near gone. "And another thing." he tells you, "the man didn’t even know he was riding to Philadelphia for the fight. I was in the back seat of the automobile with him. After some time he turned to me and asked, ‘Where's Normile? Why didn't he come?’ And there I am sitting right next to him all the time.’’ a a a ana DTD Dempsey fake with Tunney? Many people thought so. Some still do. Invariably they ask. "If he wasn't faking why didn't he hit Tunney when he had him on the ropes in the fourth round?’’ You may remember the incident. Dempsey had crowded Tunney into a corner, his o'.vn corner, and before the challenger could get out of it the champion hit him on the neck with a heavy right hand. Tunney’s knees sagged; he began to crumple; with one hand he reached up and caught hold of the top rope. It looked as if he were about to fall. A full second ticked away. Maybe two or three before he straightened up and shuffled out into the clear. Meanw'hile Dempsey, with both hands poised for killing punches, stood there and matched him. That was all. Just watched him. How come? "I’ll admit that must have looked peculiar.” said Normile. ‘ But do you want to know the low-down on that? Dempsey was afraid to hit him again.. Yes, sir, afraid, and not because of cowardice. He was afraid because he saw him sagging and he thought by the time the next punch handed one of Tunney’s knees would have reached the floor and he would be ruled the loser on a foul.”

THE eves of central Indiana golf- [ ers centered upon Connersville today where young Frank McCarty staged a 36-hole invitational open tournament over his country club course. Frank held the event in order ! that the home folks might get a glimpse of the state's best golfers before they swing into a series of tournaments that will occupy them in June. July and August. Connersville boasts a tough course, par 38 and 3.363 yardage. ; over which open tournaments! played before with an absence of | I par shooting. a a a BECAUSE of this, the home folks' are proud, and Frank en- ; countered little trouble in solicit- : ing a S3O advance purse that will be added to the entry fee prize money. In addition Frank gathered together: ten attractive prizes for the ama- j teur entries, and in the field of j starters today, which is expected to J total about fifty, there undoubtedly; 1 will be some of the best of the pro I and amateur players in the state. a a a THE advance pairings made up last night did not contain the j names of Guy Paulsen, Ft. Wayne, j state open champion; Johnny Wat-! son of South Bend and Walter Murray and Herb Walters of Gary, but there were Ralph and Russell Stonehouse of Indianapolis, both of whom qualified recently for the national open; Bill Heinlein. runnerup to ! Paulsen in the state open last sum- i mer: Neal Mclntyre, ex-state open champ; Roy Smith, Marion Smith, j Charlie Higgs. George Stark. Johnny ! Vaughn. Bill Wilkinson and other stars who can put on a good golf show for any gallery. The boys expected Paulsen to drift in for the ! action today. a a a THE gallery was out in full force Monday afternoon to witness the pro-amateur eighteen-hole tournament which always forms a sort of prelude to major tournaments. They watched fifteen teams tour the Connersville course twice, but tailed to see any of them battering par individually. Bill Wilkinson, assistant pro at Coffin, and Hutson Ferris of Connersville teamed to register a best ! ball score of 69 and take first money. Neal Mclntyre and Max i Buell teamed to score a 73 and take second place, while Chuck Garringer and Jack Foland tied with Bill Hemlein and Malcolm Carlisle for third place with 74s each. Following the play. Max Buell, who is tournament manager for the Indiana P. G. A., paired up the entries for the thirty-six-hole open event today and announced that next week's pro-amateur will be played over Massie Miller's Forest Park course at Noblesville. Pros will draw their amateur partners by lot. a a a IDLEWOLD golf course at Pendleton was the scene of a golf tournament and outing for seventy-one members and guests of the Stano- ; lind Golf Club, made up of employes of the Standard Oil Company.

Lull Precedes Speed Storm at ‘soo’ Oval Quiet Will Be Broken by Resuming of Trials on Thursday. The quiet that precedes the storm prevailed at Indianapolis Motor Speedway today, broken only occasionally by the roar of motors. Cars, some qualified and others awaiting the resuming of elimination tests Thursday at 2 p. m., were scattered over most of the garages, mechanics tinkering with the little speed creations in preparation for the big event. A few of the drivers were expected to take the track today, weather permitting, for break-down tests. Meanwhile, speculation continues along gasoline alley as to the probable minimum qualifying speed. Although some of the fastest buggies have not yet qualified, it is believed by many that 105 miles an hour will get a starting place n the thirty-three-car field. This does not include the two Diesel oilburners, who have to do only ninetyfive miles an hour to face the barrier. Last year the thirty-third position went at 108 miles an hour. Rex Mays, the 23-year,old coast flash, took his first ride on the speedway bricks yesterday, wheeling Fred Frame's front-wheeler around the oval at a slow speed. Mays is the youngest driver entered and was a sensation on the California tracks last winter. Two of the three Fords which will seek starting assignments were tested yesterday, Jack Petticord at the wheel of the Don Hulbert special, the big red job with the fin on the tail, and Wesley Crawford in the little white job which failed to qualify last year. Rick Decker, the Staten Island pilot who attempted to qualify Sunday but quit after one lap. also was on the track for several laps in his front-wheeler. Billy Arnold, 13:40 winner, visit*d Ih* trark again yesterday, watching th* lark of activity from the grandstand. Bob Wallace, who was scheduled to drive the Kemp car. will serve as relief driver for Deacon Litz instead. Wallace is a local pilot. The Kemp car will not be prepared for the race. The Julius C. Walk and Sons sportsmanship trophy will he awarded ajrain this year to the driver showing Ihe best ! sportsmanship during the 500-mile rare. This award started in 19*27, when the | late Norman Ratten Mas the hero of j one of the most thrilling arts ever | seen at the Speedway, driving his flaming car down the straightaway while | standing on the hark. He pulled the ; blazing auto into the pits and stopped. Ira Hall was la*t year’s winner, after holding his disabled ear against the wall on the southwest curve to keep it from sliding down the trark in front of the other speeding chariots. The award, as usual will he a jeweled Swiss watch with a split second timer. Speedway addicts have a lingo all their own. For instance, during the excitement one of the drivers might be heard to say; "He did a Gilhooley while apeing it around the southwest curve and draped it on the white stuff.” All of which means he went into a spin while speeding around the southwest curve and crashed into the wall. Some of the common words along gasoline alley are: Bucket • • piston I’ol carbureator. Gat* valve Stick camshaft. Crate car. Iron car. Alligator car. Jilloppv ear To bend It to turn it. Cog gear. Soup speed. Apeing . going fast Doughnuts lires Bladders (ires. Drape it on the white stuff hit the wall Gilhooley spin. Blower supercharger The grppn flag which has started more than a score of America's fastest automobile race drivers on their road to victory in the 500-mile race here will send the Burlington Zephyr, modern streamlined train, on its record attempting run this week from Denver to Chicago. A request for the famous flag was made last night to Colonel E. V. Rickenbackcr. war ace and president of the Indianapolis ; Motor Speedway and it was sent to Denver this morning. It will be returned here immediately to be used in starting the 500-mile grind on May .30. A good time was had by all. as. usual, at the Speedway dinner last | night at the University Club, where Colonel Rickenbackcr. T. E. Myers and Joe Copps were host to approxii mately thirty-five press representatives. Gilbert Becomes Orioles’ New Pilot By T'nitrii Prett BALTIMORE. Mri.. May 22.
