South American Fighter
Not Afraid of Champion
TTS
■V
By “WAG.”
IRPO, the “Wild Bull of the Pampas,” the
man who expects to slug Champion Jack
Dempsey unconscious September 14, is in
town. He arrived in Omaha early Monday
morning and will remain here until Friday
night, when he meets Homer Smith in a
10-round bout at the ball park.
Surrounded by his Interpreter. G. Wldmer; Hugh
P. (iartland. representative of Tex Rickard; Alfred
Mayer, special correspondent of I.a Nacion, a South
American newspaper, and a flock of Interested per
sons, Flrpo withstood the attack of newspaper men
and raniera sleuths In the lobby of the Fontenelle
hotel this morning for half an hour, then through his
Interpreter announced that he was ready for his morn
ing nap.
Out of the ring Flrpo strikes one as would a big farmer. Just arrived
from Wahoo or some other Nebraska farm tow n. He look*-about the room
when his interpreter is talking and seems so unsure of himself. There is
a blank look on his fare when English is spoken to him. but every now
and then when the word "Dempsey" is spoken Firpo's eyes sparkle and the
big man from the Argentine immediately starts a line of chatter with his
interpreter.
Firpo has been In this country a
year now. He appeared surprised
this morning at his surroundings.
He never smiled, and when he shoves
out his right hand to welcome strang
ers it moves slowly forward. The
right that many expect to fell Demp
sey next September remains lifeless
In the hand of the other man. Firpo
doesn't squeeze the slightest with It.
The 'Wild Bull of the Pampas'' ap
peared to the writer as If he was
sad; as if he had been slighted.
But we were told that it is the way
Firpo generally acts. His eyes are
always sad; his face unsmiling.
His interpreter informed us tlisf
Flrp« I* fairly well educated, a
chemist, a lover of music and a
lover of nature. In his home coun
try I„uls is somewhat of a hero
among his people. He must he all
that because a special correspond
ent of a Buenos Aires newspaper
accompanies Kirpo on all his tours.
This correspondent has a special
wire to his newspaper, lie writes
great gobs of "stuff" about the
“Wild Bull of the Pampas,” and he,
too, believes Kirpo will knock our
.lark Dempsey for a row of wheat
fields when they meet for the cham
pionship in New York September 14.
But the coming fight.
I.iils Kirpo is not making any
predietions about the Idr title scrap.
I.uia, through Ills interpreter, told
us that he considered any man with
two hands a hard man to whip, and
Dempsey Ifas all of two hands.
According to an announcement
that eame nut of New York the
other day, Kirpo doesn't want to
meet the world’s champion this
year.
‘I would rather wait until next
year to meet Senor Dempsey," said
Firpo via Mr. Wldmer. "But I signed
a contract witli Klekard last March
to meet Dempsey within a year, so
must go through with my contract.
"I want some tough lights under my
Delt. Would like to meet Harry Wills,
Tommy Gibbons, Georges Parpcntler
and heavyweights like that before
tackling your champion. One needs
hard fights under his belt, to he ready
to meet such a man as Dempsey.
"I will not seek n postponement of
the tight. I am not afraid of Demp
sey. Please don't get that impression
of me, but I would like to get a lit
tle mors experience before meeting
Dempsey ”

Chances of Tex Rickard
Getting License Not Good
New York Commission Believed to Have Become Unfavor
able Toward Tex and Would Like to See Some Other
Promoter Fall Heir to'Big Title Scrap.
International News Service.
By DAVIS J. WALSH.
WEW YORK, July 30.—In spite of announcements
I to the contrary it develops that the Dempsey
Firpo enterprise may not be held at the Polo
I ^^MB grounds—or elsewhere—on September 14. Mr.
A j-j, Rickard, it was said, overlooked the fact that,
✓'—v owing to the proposed change in his base of
operations, it will be necessary to apply for a
new license at the boxing commission meeting
tomorrow, and it is said on semi-reliable au
thority that the application will be tabled.
The commission is believed to have become unfavorable
toward Rickard and would like nothing better than to have
gome other promoter fall heir to the Firpo business. An Indication of this
attitude is found in the promise, alleged to have been given unofficially,
that the commission would waive Its rule, naming J25 as the top price for
tickets in the event that a promoter other than Rickard can line up Demp
sey and Harry Wills.
Another angle that may redound
to Rickard's disadvantage is the
threat of Paddy Mullins, the negro's
manager, to go before the commission
and protest against any action that
would give Firpo the first shot at
Dempsey. It is said that Mullins has
been given the benefit of some back
stairs gossip, which has led him to
believe that a protest at this time
will not be out of order.
All of which may mean that Demp
sey will fight neither Firpo nor Wills
this fall. The commission has al
ready, in private statements, declared
Dempsey and Wills taboo In this
state, and if It fails to grant Rickard
a license for the Polo grounds, pro
motors would face the strenuous and
very hurried business of signing
Dempsey and Firpo to another con
tract and make arrangements for
handling one of the largest crowds
in the history of boxing before col<f
weather sets in.
The improbability of this is made
quite clear when It is realized that
Rickard has had the foresight to
handcuff Firpo. legally, and he would
be a tough citizen for another pro
moter to handle.
Boyle's Thirty-Acres is Rickard's " ^
only "out." if the commission fails
him tomorrow. It Is not a very en
couraging prospect, Jersey authori
ties being what they are.
National Race Would Be Over
If Luque Belonged to Giants
I'nlversal Service.
EW YORK, July 30.—If the announcer
were barking these days:
“Luque pitching for New York”—
Well, the National league pennant race
would be over, the Giants would be “in.”
Manager McGraw of the Giants wanted
to get Adolfo Luque, the only Cuban in the
big leagues, during the off season.
“Huh, I guess that dope’s wrong,” was
heard when the news of such intention first
came out. ‘Why, that bird only won 13 and
lost 23 games last season.” ,
The statistics, while often eloquent,
didn’t begin to tell the story of Luque. But
wise old Pat Moran, manager of the Reds, knew it.
So Luque stayed on with the Reds. Now tt is evident why McGraw
wanted Luque. And also why Moran wouldn't let him get away.
Luque sits In the throne of the mightiest among major leaguers of his
railing with 16 victories and only three defeats.
The Giants, world champions, have resembled the Phillies and the Braves
on days, with Luque on the hill Two of his victories were by shutouts. -
All clubs look alike to Luque
these days and his loopy curves
Honors Come Late.
The laurels of renown are coming
to Luque rather late. He was born
In Havana 32 year* ago last March.
He has been In this country since
1912. I’p until 1913, when he Joined
the Reds, he has seen a lot of scen
ery In shifting about.
He first caught In the states with
Long Branch, then of the New Tork
and New Jersey State league, made
up by his countrymen. The Boston
Nationals drafted him, but he got vlr
tuallv no chance. Back to Long
Branch he came In short order.
Then Boston again, after he had
won 22 games and lost five with Long
Branch. In 1913 Then Jersey City.
Boston, Toronto and, at last, a haven
In Louiaville, Ky He was with
Louisville three seasons, starting ha
1915 and leaving in 1913, when he
went to the Reds.
He made good right away with the
Reds, winning six out of nine games
At Toronto Luque had won IS and
lost 9. which was good work, but he
didn't like the chilly Canadian city.
Temperamental Hurler.
That used to he the trouble with
Luque. When he didn't like s thing.
he got very temperamental. He still
Is temperamental, but "Pat'' Moran
has a way with such fellows.
Luque's hard luck In 1921 and last
season was enough to rile the most
even-tempered. The jinx dogged him
so last season that at one time he
walked off the field and started for
Havana But he came back and de
manded to be traded.
The trouble »a« that no matter
how splendidly Luque would pitch,
costly errors would occur, a hitter
would fail repeatedly at an opportune
time, and so on, Luque being charged
with many losses by a one-run or
slightly larger margin.
But he had stuff, the control, the
brains, and Manager Moran held onto
him. He now figures on Luque win
ning jo games for him—and probably
the pennant along with Rixey. Dono
hue and Benton. The Reds have a
fine chance for the pennant.
The Jinx has been banished by
Luque He hurled as good the last
two years as now. But the jinx, now
slain, was always in his path. Luque
had won 6? and lost 59 games in six
seasons with the Reds.
