Kearns Expects Matter to Be
Settled Within Next
48 Hours.
By Afldociattd FreM.
Kew York, July IS.—Tex Rickard’s
efforts to sign, seal and deliver the
proposed Jack Dempsey-Firpo match
for the world's heavyweight cham
pionship either in the United States
or the Argentine, apparently were no
nearer completion today after a series
of conferences among the promoter,
Flrpo, the latter’s trainer, Jimmy De
Forest, and Jack Kearns, manager of
, the champion.
Rickard declined to reveal the ex
act status of affairs, heyond saying
that ’’ a number of things were hold
ing up negotiations," but Kearns
added that he expected definite de
velopmepts within the next 48 hours.
He may confer with Rickard again to
morrow on the match, he said.
Flrpo Wants More Money.
The chief difficulty surrounding the
bout was believed to be its site, al
though it was said an additional hitch
had developed in the form of in
creased financial demands by Firpo.
Regardless of this angle, however,
Flrpo reiterated to Rickard his desire
to fight Dempsey In his native city,
Buenos Aires, while Kearns adhered
to his preference for two title bouts
In this country, the first with Firpo
around Labor day and the second
with Harry Wills, negro challenger,
about world% series time. The cham
pion’s manager was to have decided
definitely today on Rickard’s pro
posal to stage the Firpo match in
ths Argentine but he reserved final
answer pending possibilities of ar
ranging the match in this country.
At the same time the belief gained
ground that Rickard is now less
enthusiastic about an Argentine ven
ture, feeling that despite assurances
from his agents of probable financial
success, considerable risk would be
involved. Color was added to this
today by advices from Buenos Aires
quoting newspaper opinion as being
skeptical of the prospects of a paying
"gate’’ for the proposed match.
Still Considers Argentina.
While Rickard has not withdrawn
Argentine proposal, he admitted to
day that he had several other sites in
mind outside of Buenos Aires, and
Boyle’s Thirty Acre*, his arena in
Jersey City. What these are he
would not reveal, although there was
a revival of talk that he might effect
al working agreement with Tom
O’Rourke, match maker at the Polo
ground*, f°r the use of the Giants'
ball park as a championship site.
Neither promoter, however, would
admit thle possibility.
"Argentine Can’t Pay For Figlit.
Bu*nos Alrta, July 18.—"While all
South Americans are proud of Firpo.
not all will pay big prlcdfr to see him
fight. Quite a lot would bo content
to read about it al^erward. ' says the
Herald, English language newspa|>er.
In an editorial today declaring the
proposed Flrpo-Dempsey bout in
Buenos Aires would not be a financial
suoceea
Asserting that the gate receipts In
exceea at 8260,000 are too large to lie
attained, the newspaper adds "Rick
ard had better forget Argentina, once
for all. ..It is no palce to stage a
world’s championship, because there
ip not enough population.” The
Her&W thinks few Brazilians would
make the ocean voyage to see thj* fight
and few Chileans would attempt the
expensive trans-Andean trip.
The Standard which is also printed
In English, says it Is too much to
expect the reportedly required gate
of $800,000 from Argentina's popula
tion of 9,000,000 people.

«ey, heavyweight champion, an

Benny Leonard Confdent That
He W ill Knock Out Lew
Champion Lightweight Declares He Is in Best Condition of
His Fight Career—Does Not Intend to Retire From Ring
After Next Monday’s Bout—Might Go Across Creek and
Do Some Battling in England.
By International News Service.
ANNERSVILLE, N. Y., July 18.—For a cham
pion who is about to defend his title against
admittedly the most dangerous contender, in
a year that has seen the eclipse of a number
of other champions, Benny Leonard today is
unusually carefree and exuberant.
To say he is confident of the outcome
of his bout with Lew Tendler at the Yankee
stadium in New York next Monday would
be superfluous. As well one might say the
Woolworth building is tall, or some equally
obvious fact.
“Of course I will win,” Leonard said,
and then explained his showing in his bout
with Tendler a year ago.
"You know southpaws are very peculiar. For instance, if you write with
your right hand all your life, it is hard and takes time before you can ac
custom yourself to write with your left. I've been fighting right-handers all
my life and the first time I fought Tendler I was a lilt confused and puzzled.
"But I have had a year’s time to scheme out the tactics of a southpaw.
I know how they fight and I know how Tendler fights Tendler Is a good,
strong fellow. He is no easy man to beat and will take plenty of punishment.
But still I will beat him.
"I feel fine, lietter than I have felt in a long time. I am In great shape
Today I weigh 13G pounds and it won’t be a difficult matter for tne to make
the prescribed weight of 135 pounds on the afternoon of the fight."
Leonard mushed when he was re
minded that 1!I23 has lieen a "jinx"
year for champions, has witnessed the
passing of Johnny Kilbane and Jimmy
Wilde and loss of prestige by Jack
Dempsey.
"Well. I've thought about that," he
admitted. "Hut you can tel! my
fr.ends that Leonard is one champion
that will get by.”
Hail Keen in Had Straits.
In his fights with Richie Mitchell
and his last bout with Tendler, Leon
and was In laid straits, hut is said
to have saved himself liy talking his
opponents out of their advantage.
The writer asked him about this, par
ticularly of the eighth round of his
fight with Tendler. In this fight, It
will tie recalled, Leonard Is supposed
to have talked the Philadelphian out
of the fight after Tendler had him
groggy with a terrific punch to the
Jaw.
"Why, that Is all foolish." Leon
ard exclaimed. "If I was In such a
groggy condition ns they pay 1 was,
then I could not very well have lieen
In condition to talk to him. lie clipped
me a good punch on I lie Jaw. I said
to him, 'That was a good punch, Lew.'
Rut as for talking him out of the
fight, that Is foolish '
Leonnrd said he had no Intention of
retiring after the Tendler bout.
"Nothing of the sort," he said. "I'm
only starting Whj, I'm only a young
kid yef."
lie added he intended to engage In
a vigorous campaign after the fight
with Tendler and possibly go over to
Kngland to do some fighting there

Atlanta Hals
Bobby Jones
Atlanta, Ga., July IS.—Robert T.
Jones. Jr., and the national open go'.f
hampionshlp were at home last
night after several hundred Atlantan*
had given "'the young master” a
rousing reception early this after

Atlanta hailed the new champion
with song, handshaking and con
gratulatory slaps on the back and
wound up with a brass band parade
through the city. Formal and very
informal praise was heaped upon the
youthful golfer, who, after a number
of harrowingly close approaches to
the highest golf honor, won the na
tional open golf championship at In
wood last Sunday when he defeated
Bobby Cruikshank in the playoff of
a tie.

ago when the old Baltimore Orioles

that time was playing third hase for
the Orioles.
