Tough luck is the portion of Connie Mack. It now appears that he Wasn't enouph players m his list to make up a team and he isn't very hopeful of getting enough. When Connie announced recently that he didn't have a whole team to take south the Philadelphia fans replied that they didn't think he had a team at all. It may be that things have reached the stage where players can't be found who are willing to play on the Athletics, At any rate, it seems that the team will have a tousrh time next season.

By H. C. HAMILTON (United Fresa Staff Correspondent.)' NEW YORK, Feb. ?. After all it may not be Fred Fulton who gets a crack at Jess Wlllard's bothersome title. There's a guy from The far, far west

andering- around mussing up the ; heavyweights and h's having so much J Jnck at it he's actually petting sorac ; onsideration as a probable opponent J for the pacifist champion. , j Jack Dempsey is. his name and its a! sood old monicker, recollecting that the ! famous "XonparieV totted it with him! when he was considered the very best of! all heavyweights. Jack has oodles and j oodles of fights with alleged heavy-! weights and has taken their measure v it!i orar case. i addition he has 1 clashed with one or two real good boys! FO-cal!ed. and lias managed to escape) wi'hout annihilation. j Dempsey's latest stunt was to polish ' ofC Homer .Smith, a mid-western gent of! the ring, and lie did it in the first round j of what had len scheduled to be a' whole evening's entertainment. He madi a tremendous hit with his work find immediately they began saying that

here was the man who should meet Fulton and really prove whether or not the Minnesotan is the lad to meet big Jess. v Xu the course of his battling Denipsey has defeated A Norton, a veteran of the ring; Iob McAllister. Charley Miller. George Christian. Carl Morris. Gunboat Pmith, AVillie Median, twice, and Homer Smith. He also has met Andre Anderson and Battling Jim Johnson. going ten rounds with each of these accredited beef exhibits without danger to himsrir. I.-mpsc's experience would be agaiit him in a scrap with either Fulton or WiHard. Fulton, despite criticisms, is the. best heavyweight in the country, with the possible exception of the 'h.uv.pion himself. If Pempsey Is good enough to defeat Fulton he's certau.ly good enough for a bust at AVillard. After Moran and Fulton pull oft their muss down Xew Orleans way it will be time enough to talk about a DempseyFulton bout, for Moran, descrepit as he is. is just the man to rut a knockout over on Fulton should one of his wild swings land by chance.
