forced to work up a new order for his hurlers, and this handicap has caused

Weismuller Challenges Hawaiian Champion CBy Associated Press.) -HONOLULU. June 14. Johnny Weismuller, swimming marvel of the Illinois Athletic club. Chicago, through his trainer, William Bachrach, today challenged Warren Kealoha, of the Hul Makanl, Honolulu t,o a 100 yard

tank backstroke swimming race on any date to be set by the Hawaiian branch of the A. A. U. . The challenge is the outgrowth of a dispute which arose after a similar race during the meet of May 27, when the judges awarded first place to Weismuller, while the timers clocked Kealoha's time as the faster. Weismuller stipulated in his challenge that the proceeds go toward the fund being raised here to send Milton Bcamer, Hawaiian champion sprinter, to the National A. A. U. track meet at New York.

With lithe and graceful step.

He was a jolly umpire;

His soul was full of pep,

The shades of night were falling fast,

When he was carried home.

RUMORS THAT WILLS

FRAMED IN DEMPSEY FIGHT ARE FOOLISH

Br FRANK G. UKXKB Every time a big championship

tussle is contemplated, stories gain cir

culation anent "frame ups."

It was so in the Jeffries-Johnson tilt

when it was whispered that Johnson

was scheduled .to take a nose dive. It

true In Havana when Johnson

was to flop in the tenth round, accord

ing: to insiders. In Toledo It was wnis

pered for days before the battle began

that Willard. having been paia liuu,.

000, was going to take it on the chin

in the seventh. I And, as everyone known, Dempsey was to lay down to Carpentier in the Jersey City fight. So widespread, and so authentic-appearing became that rumor, that even veteran reporters were so fooled by it that they hunted up Dempsey on the night before the battle to get his statement on whether or not it was true. The Dempsey-Wills match hasn't been made. It may never be made, and, even if made, the fight never may be put on. Yet already one hears that Wills is going to do a little lay-down act for the champion. It's rumored already that Wills is to get $150,000 for permitting Dempsey to punch and batter him around for two rounds and then take a few stout ones on the chin and go to sleep for something slightly beyond ten seconds.

But when logic la applied to that mental twist it practically precludes the possibility of such an action by the black man. Couldn't Afford It First of all, Dempsey perhaps would

not get beyond $300,000 for a Wills; fight Wills might get about $100,000. If Dempsey gave Wills $150,000 as the price for a lay-down, it would mean that Dempsey would get only $150,000

out of it all, end Wills would get $250,000. Of course. If Dempsey didn't think he could beat Wills, and yet knew that public sentiment demanded he meet the black man, it would be "good business" for him to pay out $150,000 to clear Wills out of the way. But what assurance would Dempsey have that Wills wouldn't pull a double cross? Suppose Wills did put up $100,000 to guarantee that he would lay down; if he didnt if he won out and won the fight he would be $100,000

out But he'd have a championship infinitely more valuable than $100,000.

Wills might agree to lay down all

things are possible. But suppose in the first or second round he drove one

through Dempsey's guard and sent the champion reeling backward, do you think he then would pull his punches and let Dempsey recover and then take it on the chin at the appointed

timer

The chances are all against it. If

Wills, having agreed to a frame, land

ed a punch against Dempsey and

rocked. him, it's 100 to one that the negro would forget all about that laydown promise, forget about the $100,000 forfeit and go on to finish Dempsey.

It is beyond the realms of solid reasoning that Dempsey would want Wills to agree to lay to him. For Dempsey, beyond all else, is superlatively confident In that boyish way of his, he feel3 that he can whip any

man in the world. Wills may stack up a a tough Dempsey foeman, in the minds of the public but not In the mind of Dempsey. Negro Confident Now as for Wills: The negro has a deep rooted conviction that he can whip Dempsey one as strong and unswervable as Dempsey's. Nothing so far- and perhaps nothing before prospective battle can really alter it Thinking so. Wills probably has it all figured out in this way. "By whipping Dempsey, I, first of all, achieve the loftiest heights of pugilism a glory tha tfals to few and is worth a lifetime of effort. Victory would mean at least $500,000 for me because, as champion, I can pick up big money for several years taking on all comers." So here is the situation: Dempsey, on one hand, figures Wills will be soft for him. Therefore, why should he pay out money to insure a lay-down by a man he thinks he can flatten with comparative ease? The handlers of Dempsey feel the same way as the champion. But even if they should weaken on that point

they know it would be a foolish move to guarantee Wills big money to quit. They know full wel the possibility of

a double cross. They know that even

if Wills agreed to lay down he might

if he saw a chance of winning, shift the

ONE MCGRAW MISSED. He is Walt Henline, the young catcher who is slugging and catching hi way to the limelight with the downtrodden Phillies. Manager Wilhelm's action in moving Henline from seventh position in the batting order to the cleanup post recently indicates the speed at" which the backstop has been hitting. All of which may make John McGraw irritable. For Henline broke into the big show as a Giant in the spring of 1921. His work with Indianapolis the previous season won him promotion. With the Hoosiers Walt fielded .970 behind the plate and

hit within six points of the charmed j circle. He's a Fort Wayne, Ind.," boy and is twenty-five. He hits from the right hand side of the plate. Jones (In the golf club smokingroom, describing an unusual triumph) : "Yes, to start with everything was in Smith's favor. Rub of the green against me, though I was playing a top-hole game. Four down and five to go! And then I finished ab-so-lutely like a tiger; won all the last five holes, and took the beggar's money, begad!" Smith (simultaneously in,the dressing room): "I had Jones boiled to a rag. Four up, I was, and five to go. But then the bounder's flukes! Never in all my life have I seen anything like it. Cannons off bunkers, topped approaches, blind putts all trickling down. To make it worse, the bumptious idiot fairly talked me out of it at the end."

BRAVES ARE STAGING DRIVE REMINISCENT OF 1 9 1 4 ACHIEVEMENT

(By Associated Press) NEW YORK, June 14. The Braves may not duplicate this year their remarkable achievement of 1914, when they fought their way from the cellar to the top, won the pennant and trimmed the Athletics four straight in the world's series, but right now they are staging a drive reminiscent of that

feat and upsetting championship contenders right and left. Hank Gowdy, hero of 1914 champions and the team's only playing survivor of that outfit, was a hero again yesterday when the Braves humbled the Pirates for the third time in four games, 6 to 5. The result gave Boston a record of nine victories out of 11 games with the leading three clubs of the league, including three out of four from St Louis and three straight from the Giants. The hub men also made a clean sweep of four games with the Cardinals in the recent western invasion and although still in 7th place are only three games from the first division. The Giants meanwhile outslugged Cincinnati for their fourth straight from the Reds, 7 to 5, and had a margin of four games over the Pirates, with whom they opened an important series today. Two other first division clubs In the National also fell by the wayside, Philadelphia's International league recruit Singleton, blanking St. Louis while his mates club out 16 hits for

14 runs off four Cardinal hurlers and

"Jimmie" now claims the welter-weight championship of the world. His recent wins are over L. Ackerman at Fostoria, Ohio, in two straight falls; Tommy Stutz, of Ft. Wayne, two straight falls, and Matty Matstda, at Muncie, in straight falls. Chanos is now making his home at Richmond and Muncie and came to meet the carnival wrestlers, who are in the city this week. "Jimmie" will wrestle at the carnival grounds Wednesday night and will wrestle to a finish on Satyrday night.

Barrett, those on the inside must have known, didn't have a Chinaman's chance against the rugged southpaw. Barrett bad not licked anyone who could claim to be a brilliant performer. The only thing that could be said about Bobby was that he had shown a terrific wallop, The Giants copped all four Qames of the series with Pat Moran's once in-

program and, instead of losing, go on to knock out Dempsey. In other words, arranging a deal with Wills would not insure a positive victory for Dempsey and simply give Wills more money for the fight than Dempsey got, if Wills did lose.

And Wills hardy can be expected to sell his chance to gain championship glory and probably $500,000 afterward for $150,000 or so. So where's the reason for a frame-up?- -
