pot even with
Jnelt Lellvelt and
his Tulsa Oilers
yesterday w It e n
they walloped out
an IS to 4 victory
over the Tulsans
in the second
panic of the scries,
thereby pettlnp n
little revenge for
the defeat handed
them M o n d a y
when the visitors overcame an ciplit
run lead and won out in the eleventh
inning.
Yesterday’s game was a good one
from the Buffalo angle, if nothing;
else. The Herd set somewhat of a
■Western league record in the first in
ning when it scored II runs. 10 of
which were chalked up before an out
was made.
The handicap the Oilers labored tin
der after the first Omaha inning was
too much, while the fielding of the
Buffaloes also kept the Oklahomans
down *Wj the scoring column. Five
times the Buffaloes committed double
killing* four of them being tacked
up by (lie Wilcox to Thompson to
Cullop combination. This alone is
worthy id note and will, no doubt,
find a ;pjace in the league records for
this season.
Kvery Buffalo scored in the first
inning.; while Thompson anil Cullop
tailed ■ twice for good measure, os
born managed to get two Bits in the
first inning, a single and a double,
•all -of which is a pretty good feat in
itself,
Iho first inning was in one way a
repetition of the eighth inning Mon
day when the Oilers scored nine runs,
only yeeterilay the Buffaloes were on
the scoring end anil didn't stop until
they had registered 11 runs.

LYMPIC ARENA,
Cleveland, 0., A^ik
It.—Benny I>eon
ard, world's light
weight champion,
defending his title
for the first time
in 11 months, eas
ily defeated I’al
Moran. New Orle
ans challenger, in
a 10-round, nn-de
risinn contest lust
night. A tabula
tion by the ring
side experts gave
l/cnnard nine of
the 10 rounds
while the sixth went to Moran.
The champion, boxing with his old
time shill and dash, so far outclassed
Moran that the result never was in
doubt. Is-onard-blocked perfectly and
danced away from Moran's wiki
rights whenever the challenger dared
to carry the fight.
The victory, however, may prove
costly to Leonard, ns he dislocated
tho thumb of his right hand In the
fourth round. This injury may force
him to suspend training in prepare
tion for his match with Mickey Walk
er. world's welterweight champion,
scheduled for 10 days later. The dam
aged thumb was encased tn splints as
Leonard sat in his corner after the
fight.
Billy Olhsnn, the champion's man
sger, said tonight he could not de
tormina what effect Leonard's injury
would have on his training for Walk
er until an examination can be made
tomorrow.
Leonard convinced bis admirers
that he had lost none of his speed as
a result of hi# lay-off of nearly a
year. Ills judgment of distance was
marvelously accurate and be whipped
over his punrhes In championshli
form.
Tho champion continually bait
Moran on retreat except for the sixth
round to escape a possible kfiockout.
In tho eighth round he drove Moran
to the ro|>es under a smashing atta, k
causing the New Orleans lightweight
to sag as a result of solid punches t,
the head.
Moran boxed timidly- and was wild
with his right hand swings. Whet,
ever he poked a loft into Benny’s face
It was feeble and lacked ate«m. Moran
| Slipped and was wrestled to the floor
a half dor.cn times In the enVIler
rounds. •
Tonight's fight, stsged in an open
arena juat outalde the rity limits, at
traded a capacity crowd of 20,000
siiectators with receipts probably
reaching $00,000.
The match was refereed by Tommy
McQInty, who with Matt Hinkle, pro
mated the contest.
The men fought at catch weights.
Moran weighed 183\, but Leonards
weight was not announced. It was
said he scaled 140 pounds.

JACK DEMPSEY TIRES OF MOVING
PiCTURE GAME AND WANTS TO GET
INTO ACTION; MAY GO TO ENGLAND
Manager of World’s Champion Receives Good Offer From I
English Promoters to Meet Tommy Gibbons—Dempsey ;
Ready to Fight Winner of Wills-Firpo Bout.
EW YORK, Aug, 12.
—Jack Dempsey Is

He liaa stuck to

enough.
Now he wants

The writer Sun

gram from Jack
Kearns, the heavy

He said that he
and the titlehold

ready to come east and will probably
quit Los Angeles in about two weeks.
"Jack doesn't want any more of
the movie stuff," wires Kearns, "and
his Is throwing away the grease paint
and pulling on the gloves. He will
start training Immediately. He Is
about 10 pounds over weight.
“We have received a big offer to
fight Tom Gibbons in Kngland this
tail. We are very likely to aerept It.
If Tex Rickard wants Dempsey In Oc
tober with the winner of the Wills
I'lriMi fight, he can have it, but would
ralliet wait until next spring.
"We are making arrnngementa to

"But now It t* different. Every

Klrpo heaved a sigh that blew an

gave full play to hi* sorrow Ijtrgr
South American tears drooled softly
down Ills swarthy pampas.

bag of Imported sob*. He saitlt
"Vou go hack and tell the American
public that It la not true. I am
sorry and disappointed. Hut It le not

the summit only to have my hopes
splattered like a thrown tomato."
Another date of sob* shook Klrpo’*

sofa overcome With the heat.
He said:
"Although 1 have defeated Willard,
McAuliffet Brennan, and will trliftnph
over Wills, \on tell them that I. tail*

his amhttlon crushed.

Peter I'an." ,
Ir.g heavyweight struggle In October,
"but would rather wait until spring,"
as he wires, he is figuring that this
fight, if field In 1925, would be much
mnrt profitable to the champion than
if staged this fall. Dempsey has made
close to a million dollars In the pic
ture game this year and the govern
ment has given this B. It, a healthy
swat per the income and other tax
dtpn rtments.
He undoubtedly would make any
where from $600,00(1 to $750,000 for
meeting the winner of the FirpnAYilU
fight. This added to the million al
ready tucked away would result in
llempaey working almost entirely for
I'ncle Sam.
The fight with Gibbons in England
undoubtedly would draw a tremen
dous gate. If Kearns makes this
match lie will probably see to it that
the promoters pay for the British end
of the tax that would be levied
against the champion's share of the
purse.
The moving picture mobuls will be
sorry to learn that Dempsey has de
tided to forsake the silver screen.
The champion has made a remarkable
success during his short time In the I
game, and some even claim that It
would only be a few months before
he would have had Valentino, Fair
banks and Chaplin sitting up and
taking notice.

Hillside Eies,
THERE are so many course* laid

to play hillside lies, I have aeen
many a player go from a flat home
epurse a hilly one, and there add
10, 15 or 20 strokes to hi* game. Of
course it Is really poor golf architec
ture if good shots
end up on hillsides:
but we do not all
make good shots
and many of our
courses are poorly
laid out. We know
that it is a fat",
that we are con

he finds himself in s very awkward

thing do do Is to look at tha hall
rather than at the position of hands
feet and club, l’erhapa Uie best way
Is to take the different hillside lie*
In the older one L likely to find
them.
We will first suppose the hall lying
on a straight down hill toward the
