Greb and Wilson May
Enter Ring on Even Terms
Odds on Philadelphian’s Coming Championship Bout With
Wilson Shortened at Alarming Rate During Recent Days
—Weight Reduction on Part of "Rubber Ball” Largely
Responsible for Drop in Greb’s Chances Friday,
Ily DAMS .1. WAI.SJI.
International News Service Suerial Cnrre “nonilenf.
V YORK, Aur. 29—largely because Harry Greb seems to
lie reaching the middleweight limit by methods that might
give a few’ points to the exponents of the Spanish inquisi
tion, the odds on his championship bout with Johnny
Wilson, Friday have shortened at a rather alarming rate
during recent days. When the match was first made,
Greb was figured a favorite at 3 to 1 or better. Today,
he is rated at 9 to 5, with Wilson money so plentiful
that it is altogether possible the men will enter the ring
with the odds cut to nothing.
Greb's fight against weight Is a heroic one He la
not the type that reduces easily and it is no secret that
160 pounds vn the afternoon of a fight is shooting dan
gerouslv close to his physical limit.
It is believed that weight weakness may beat Greb, If Wilson does
not weaken.
The Pittsburgh entry is said to have reduced seven pounds In the first
two days of training by running himself to a shadow. Since then he has
concentrated himself upon holding his own In his /fight against his body.
It has been nothin* fur Greb to
top off a seven mile run with an hour
or so of the usual training ritual
followed by as much as 14 rounds of
boxing. Even Philadelphia Jack
O'Brien has found occasion to remon
strate with the Pittsburgher.
Bed" Mason, the latter's manager,
has other ideas on the subject.
"Greb never worked differently,” he
declares. "Harry can make any kind
of weight and be strong. Hard work
makes him fast."
Meantime, Wilson’s air of quiet con
fidence while training at Summit, N.
J., has been impressive. The cham
pion claims he has no Illusions about
himself but that he figures he has
Grrb in the bag.
"I’ll lick him by tearing the atom
ach out." is John’s rather forceful
way of expressing his visws on the
situation, if any.-' Wilson is quite
calm about the Impending issue and
gives the impression that if he is
l)eaten, It will be merely a case of
Greb being the better man.
War Wounds Wrecked
Guisto’s Baseball Career
l.KVEHAND, Aug. 29.—Gas wound* received In the worts

Two Carloads of Runners

"The greatest harness amt thor

That'* the motto Charlie Trimble,
secretary of the Al< Mar Ben exposi

Pip, the i omlng fall festival race
meeting Is going to be a whopper,
bOR some reason or other, this
coming Dempsey F'irpo fight isn't
causing any great amount of in
terest among Omaha followers of the
knock 'em dead and drag 'em out
sport.
The fact that dear little I,uls Angel
didn't knock out the veteran, Homer
Smith, in 10 rounds in their bout In
Omaha has caused a lot of the fistic
gents to look on this coming bout
as sort of a setup for Mister Dempsey.
Fellows we have talked to who saw
the Dempsey and (iibbnns bout and
then threw tlicir optics on Firpo and
Ilomer Smith tell us that Dempsey
will make short work of F'irpo. How
ever, they can’t explain just what
was the trouble with Dempsey when
lie fought (ilhhona at Shelby.
These same fistic gents who saw Fir
po against Smith will tell you that
the South American will be “duck
soup" for Dempsey. F'irpo didn't
show any great signs of boxing
against Smith. That's sure.
Reports coming from Flrpo's train
ing camp say that Duis Angel Is train
ing with an "I don't care attitude."
Dempsey s got a bad cold and isn't
training.
There is a well known saying that
reads something like this: "You can't
teach an old dog now tricks." That
might be applied to F'irpo. The Wild
Hull has his own style of fighting
and DeForest or anyone else can't
teach him to fight any different. Just
because F'irpo doesn't knock a couple
dogtn sparring partners cuckoo each
afternoon la no reason to believe that
he isn't training.
□ NIE MAT’N. Wichita hurler
who has been sold to the New
York (Hants. Is the kind of a
hurler who should make good. Flrnle
has a head just like any other human
being, but inside his dome he has a
lot of stuff that is mighty valuable
to a ball player. He just a young
ster and Is always willing to listen
to advice from veterans.
To he sold to the (Hants is the
highest ambition of any minor
league player. They always finish
up In the race and. more tlien that,
(Hant salaries are said lo be second
only to the Yankees.
The western league loses a good
hurler in F'mie Maun. Hut there
Isn’t a player or fan in the league
who doesn’t want to see a hall play
er advance In Ills occupation.
Ileres hoping Maun develops Into
one of the best minor pitchers in the
big leagues.
He's got the stuff and. more than
that, Ernie is a fine fellow.
