_a _______-_ - - -— in His Eleventh Fight - ---• '% jOld-Timers i Didn’t Need Long Ring Experience' Jack Dempsey Had More Than 60 Fights Before Winning World Title. >;y DAMON RUN VON. BW TORK, Jan 9. — Critics al moat lnvarlablj say of a young fighter "hs needs more ex perience." Nowaday* a fighter woul0 have to shot* the moat phe nomenal form to escape that com ment. J u at how much experience does a young fighter need? i-tH>K up the record of James J. peltries, said by many veteran* to have been one of the greatest heavy weight champions the game has ever known. Joffrles had his first fight when he tvas several months past 21 years old. That was in 1896. It was in July, the only fight he had that year. He fought four fights In 1887, l,iH first and second battles being 10 months apart, according to his rec ord. In his 11th fight, less than four years from the time h» started his career, he won the world cham pionship. Showed Phenomenal Form. Of course .Jeffries did show phenom enal form from the beginning, at least In results. HI* fourth fight was with Gu* Ruh lin. It went 20 rounds to a draw. His fifth fight was with Joe Choyn »ki. It wont 20 rounds to a draw. A 22-year-old boy who could hold, let us say, Tom Gibbons and Harry Wills to 20-round draws In hi* fourth and fifth fights would attract wide at tention at once. Or do you old timers figure Choyn «ki as good as Gibbons, Ruhlin as good as Wilis? Jack Dempsey, starting his profes atonal career at 20, as near as his hazy recollection fixes Ihe event, had nfare than 60 fights before h» won tile heavyweight title. Had More Experience. He was about the same age as Jef fries when he won his title, perhaps a few months younger. He had had far more experience than Jeffries, if fighting Is experience. The record books suggest that In the old days handlers of heavyweight* did not believe sending them into the ring as often as they are sent today. AD* KRT1NEMENT. IF RHEUMATIC EAT NO SWEETSI Says glass of Salts helps to overcome Rheumatism acid. Rheumatism is easier to avoid than to cure, states a well-known author ity. We are advised to dress warm ly, keep the feet dry, avoid exposure, and above all. drink plenty of good water and avoid eating sweets of all kind. Rheumatism is caused by, body waste and acids resulting from food fermentation. It Is Ihe function of the kidneys to filter this poison from the blood and cast out In the ur ine; the pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this Impurity. In damp and chilly cold weather the skin poies are closed, thus forcing the kidneys to do dou ble work; they become weak and •iugglsh and fail to eliminate this waete and acids, which keeps accum ulating and circulating through the eastern, eventually settling in the jqfnts and muscles, causing stiffness, soreness and pain, called rheums turn. JAt the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of Jad Salts; put a tablespoon ful In a glass of water and drink be fore breakfast each morning for a week. This Is helpful to neutralize aoldlty, remove waste matter, also to riding the blood of rheumatic poi son. >lad Salts is inexpensive, and is mpde from the acid of grapes and lepton Juice, combined with Ilthia, aid Is used with excellent results by trousands of folks who are subject toj rheumatism. >hew a few Pleasant Tablets —Stomach Feels Fine! t reaches the stomach all distress from tcltl stomach or Indigestion ends.

Millions keep it handy, lhug «‘<t« recommend It * Set Batting Records in American Tril Speaker. Tyrus Cobh. Kenneth Williams. CTRIKEOl.’TS were up for discus sion at this pahrticular conclave of the Hot Stove leaguers, and compliments were in order for vari ous gents of the American league Known to possess uncanny skill in gauging hostile hurling. The close of the 1923 campaign saw Faber lioasting a string ot 148 strike outs, Shocker had whiffed 149, Shaw key'» victims numbered 130, and John son, the demon fireball artist, bad leveled 105. Reference to the vital statistics over a period of five years in the junior circuit disclosed some interest ing data. Collins’ record in this particular department ot the national pastime was the best ever established by the White Sox keystone guardian. Since the commencement of the 1919 cam paign, Eddie, appearing in 731 cham pionship battles, has been turned back on strikes just 81 times. This may appear to be a phenome nal performance, yet it ranks sec ond to that compiled by Tris Speaker, the gray-thatched field marshal of the Cleveland club. Spoko never has whiffed as few as eight times in a complete season. During the five years he never has struck out more than 15 times, while in 1922 lie was thus retired on only 31 appearances. Engaging in 697 encounters since 1919, Speaker has fanned just 63 times, which gives him a record su perior to that boasted by Collins, w’ho has participated in 34 more games than the heavy hitting Texan. Spoke has maintained a grand average. Tile master of the Indians v-as-in 134 conflicts In 1919, yet breezed on only 12 occasions. In 15 games in 1920 lie was set down 13 times. Hitting in 132 battles in 1921, he fidined only 12 times, while in 3922 lie took part in 131 games and whiffed hut 11 times The Texan again competed in IBP games last sea son, and the enemy curvers were able to baffle him on only 15 at tempts. You've got to admit the dray Eagle is consistent. Babe Ruth has taken the count via the whiff medium mere often than any of the other truly greats of swat dom during those same five years. The Bambino in 686 Iwttles has whiffed! a cool 392 times, his worst record being that of 1923, when in 152 games he heard-the third count just 93 times. The home run champ, like Speaker, has been consistent in this field of endeavor, for in the three years prior to 1D23 he averaged 80 strikeouts per season. Ty Cobh, in 646 battle over the five season span, whiffed 107 times and Harry Hellinann, who last year lead the junior circuit slainmers, was counted out on 178 appearances in 696 engagements. Sam Rice, Wash ington star, known as a gent who rarely fans, was struck out 84 time* in 639 trips to bat, and Kenneth Wil liams. who dotes on four base clouts, proved to be a frequent w hitter. The tall, somber Brownie struck out exactly 156 times in 652 games since the start of the 1919 race, fleorge Sisler in four je.n s, 1919 1922. saw action in 566 games and fanned 80 times. Says Talk of Dempsey-Gibbous Bout Ballyhoo for Land of Florida New York. Jan. 9.—A well-informed sporting man Imparted the belief here today that all this talk of a re turn fight between .lack Dempsey and Tom GIbbonalaso much ballyhoo for an invasion of Florida by several celebrities and others of the prize fighting bands. At the same time, lie pointed out that It Is never too early to begin a ballyhoo for a Dempsey racket, hnd that starting the chatter now will be an attempt to kill those well-known two birds with one stone, in case Dempsey may meet Gibbons this sum mer. He also indicated a newspaper dis patch from Miami, announcing that Gibbons would fight there January St against an opponent to lie named Thursday night, when Young Strlb ling takes on a chap named Mike Nestor at the Cycledrumr there. Our informant said he did not know how big a “gate ' could Ire taken In under the Florida law governing the price of tickets, or tf there was any such lav. .Vs fni ns he knew, he said, it might be feasible, not to say profitable, to stags a Dempsey Gib bons fight there. But of one thing he expressed him self as pretty certain, and that is that the land of tourists Is going to see a lot of prize fighting at the beach resnrls and elsewhere.
