New York, Dec. 17. It look as

CS4i indication is that

early next month.
The consensus of
opinion is that
Greb will hand
Johnny a stiff

the crown.
The. match vir

.JOHMNT WILSON.
ed when Wilson and Tex Rickard got
together a few days ago and Johnny
agreed to meet Greb. A fortnight
ago Harry declared that he was so
anxious to get a crack at the middle
weight championship that he would
fight Wilson for nothing. No hitch
is expected from the Greb end.
The sporting world practically is
unanimous that if Greb can make
1 he weight and he strong and Harry
says he can do it easily the Pitts
burgh bearcat will tear the crown
from Johnny's dome.
Every boxing fan also knows that
Greb is the one man who can make
Wilson fight. Johnny can do no
clinching and stalling with Greb.
Harry's rapid fire attack will keep
Johnny busier than a pup bird dog
in a briar patch. Whether or not
Wilson retains the title, Johnny will
have to fight for his life.
Would Make Popular Champ. .
A victory by. Greb will be a great
boost for boxing. Harry is of the
type which makes au ideal cham
pion. He is ready at all times to
box, and whenever he does box in
variably gives all that is in him.
- Incidentally Wilson's friends insist
that it will be a new Wilson who
will box Greb. "Johnny realizes the
mistakes he has been making." said
a friend of his. "He thought the
big thing to do was to hang on to
the title regardless of anything else.
Now he realizes that a champion
must deliver.., tbo-ftoc;ds the same as
any one else.'-' Arid1" don't you think
Johnny can't deliver the poods when
"he has to. If you think Greb is go
ing to have' any cinch with him you
are making the mistake of your
life." ' ... V
The rivalry in the tiantam division
is keen and the situation as it stands
today holds the novel possibility of
l'ete Herman coming back to win
the title for the third time. This
would establish a precedent and an
entirely new record in the long and
rugged history of the ring.. For that
reason, if for no other, the fans are
pulling for a return bout between
Herman and Buff. The latter has
shown no very apparent desire to mix
with Pete again, although Johnny is
a willing scrapper and will probably
not try to dodge. such an encounter
it' Pete goes out add rings upfa few'
preliminary victories to his credit.
Pete Herman is taking great care
of himself and is gradually rounding
into shape for his come-back cam-i
paign. '
Now that Joss Willard has stepped
out of the picture the only white man
worth considering as an opponent for
Jack Dempsey is Tom Gibbons.
Offers for this match are beginning
to reach Jack Kearns from various
points. St. Taul got ahead of New
York by submitting the first definite
offer for a Dcmpsey-Gibbons match.
. Tex Awaits Results.
This offer came from Frank Mc
Cormick and Kearns sayS he will
- give it due consideration. However,
there is little chance of St. Paul be
ing able to outbid New York for
such an attraction, and if Tex Rick
ard wants the match there is no
doubt he can get it. Rickard evi
dently would rather wait until Gib
' boris meets Carpentier, and then if
Gibbons should . win a Gibbons
Dempsey match would be a much
greater attraction than it would be at
the present time.
If Gibbons should beat Carpentier
in sensational style the Dempsey
match would then loom up so big
that it would require an ' outdoor
arena. - On the other hand, there is
a chance that Carpentier will flatten
Gibbons, and in that case Rickard
would' be left without an opponent
for Dempsey, as the Frenchman
could not be used in a return match.

Peter the Great Again Leads
All Other Sires in Number of
Standard Performers on Track
With the returns practically com
pleted for the 1921 harness racing
season the statistics show that the
marvel among sires, Peter the GreaS
S.w 1-4, again leads all other sires
in the number of new standard per-.
formers, i. e. trotters with records
ot wJ:JU or better, pacers with
records ot :Zi or better, liaving 24
new trotters and 19 new pacers in
1921.
;. Commencing with the 19(4 season
the aged premier 'at Laurel Hall has
led all other sires each season with
out interruption and now has a
total of 517 standard performers to
his credit, 416 trotters and 101 pacers.
Just how much he stands out over
any other living or dead harness
horse sire is shown by the fact that
no other sire has 300 standard per
formers to his credit. The end is
not- yet with Peter the Great for,
while 26 years of age he is still
strong and apparently good for sev
eral years yet. "There are 19 wean
lings at Laurel Hall bv him while
20 yearlings by him were disposed
of at the. recent sale in. New York
and there are probably two dozen
marcs at Laurel Hall in foal to him.
Now .' admittedly the greatest of
harness horse sires, Peter the Great
was probably knocked as enthusi
astically and persistently as any
sire in the register. . In his early
years in New England he was pro
nounced a counterfeit until his
daughter, Sadie Mac came along and
won the Kentucky futurity and other
rich events, followed bv Czarevna,
Grace, both futurity winners, and
others. Then his detractors, admit
ting that he had sired some classy
fillies, pointed to the fact that none
of his sons had particularly dis
tinguished themselves. Along came
Peter Volo, 2:02, Peter Scott, 2:05
and a score of other-high-class staU

THE licro worshipers play a bit
too strong for World's Heavy
weight Champion Jack Demp
sey. Wherever he strolls there al
ways is a mob following, and his
car$ ring with the word: "That's
the champion fighter of the world."
As an example of liow "vox pop"
tramps on the heel of Utah Jack,
seeking to mitt him and ooze words
that tell of how wonderful he is, we
might describe what happened one
attcrnoon on the sunny Boardwalk
of Atlantic City, where the champ
was training lor his bout with
Georges Carpentier for the world's
title. It was one of the afternoons
when Jack took a layoff from the
daily "prepping grind and he felt
like taking a hike into the city to see
now business was going on the fa
nious Boardwalk.
He alighted froni his car near a
hotel and, accompanied by the ever
faithful Teddy Hayes, started . to
move along the Boardwalk. He
hadn't gone half a dozen steps be
fore he was spotted by someone who
knew he was the champ of 'em all.
This admirer milted Jack, who es
sayed to move along, but he hadn't
gone a block and blocks on tlie
Boardwalk aren't half as long as in
most places before a mob had
gathered and halted his progress and
be was the center of an aggregation
nf fpllrwL'C Un rpvpf llarl ceeM l,efnr
Dempsey stood in the heat listen
ing to a lot of conversation as long
as was politely necessary, in the
meantime maneuvering his way to
the edce of the throng. Then he
saw a chance to escape and galloped
over the Boardwalk rail, where a
friend was standing, leaving Hayes
to entertain the gang he bad just
left. But the champ ihad not talked
with his friend more than a minute
before a new crowd, spotting him,
horned its way into his presence.
Once more Jack had to pull a "get
away," and this time he left his
friend behind to do the honors.
That finished the Boardwalk
stroll, and he stepped on the gas and
finished the afternoon motoring on
the outskirts of the summer resort
town.
"I run into a great bunch of curi
ous eye-pepping fellow's in this
champion business," said Jack.
"They sure do crowd me when I
get out in the open. I guess they
think a champion fighter isn't
human like anybody else. At least
you'd think it was money in the
pocket the -way they crowd me to
shake hands. If I answered all the
questions they put to me, I'd run
out of gas before I even got started."
Jack tells a little story which is a
pippin. lie heard it trom leaay

Dempsey 's side,
"Hayes told me," says Ja'ck,
"that he heard one of the fellows who
crowded me once say he had a, no
tion to get rough with me so that I
would sock him one, so that he
could tell his friends the champion
of the world pinned the 'shiner' on
him."

Those victims of mud and rain

means that the Harvard-Yale gams
will be contested on the laat Satur
day of November. L"nlr the serv
ice classic clashes with I he event in
the Yale howl, that game will have
to be in December.
Already the shaping of the 1922
foot -ball schedule lias begun, ami
the present outlines indicate that the
next year in college foot ball will
provide a more evenly balanced ar
rangement, one that will continue
the interactional idea and at tlio
same time advance the sectional con
tests to a higher plane. One of the
institutions in the eat that is settim?
the pace in booking hard games for
next soasou is me cniiru aw
Naval academy. 1 he Mirttlies are
trying for a game with the Univer
sity of Pennsylvania for 1922, anI
have already signed up with Georgia
Tech for a home and home scries,
starting next fall.
Eli Abandons Prejudice.
Yale has given in against its preju
dice regarding-interscctional games
and has agreed to a contest witli
Iowa. But of more importance thaii
that is the fat that Ohio Mate anl
Iowa have signed a three-year agree- 4
nicnt, thus shaping tho western con-
ference schedule into a more co
hesive affair, from which some assur
ance that in tlie future a four-team
tie, such as nearly took place this
year, can be avoided at the outset.
Harvard is going to continue rela
tions with Centre and Penn State.
Princeton will play out its agreement
with Chicago, which terminates next
year, and has added Notre Dame.
Army will clash with Notre Dame
again next year, and Nebraska s
going to meet Pittsburgh again. De
troit and Washington and Jefferson
are cortain to play a game in 1923,
and Cornell and Penn will continue
their old relations. In fact, Cornell
may book a game with one of the
big three in 1923, and still has a
chance of getting in in 1922, since
all schedules at present arc only
tentative.
East Will See Centre.
The east will see Centre. Georgia,
Georgia Tech and probably Vander
bilt and may be induced to come
east next year, and it would not be
surprising if Penn State invited the
University of Washington east for a, .
play at San Diego on Christmas or
the day after, this year, and If Stan
ford or the University of California
care to it is understood that either
can have a booking in the south,
probably at Louisville, with the
praying colonels" next season.
"All in all, the 1922 and 1923 sea
sons give greater promise than was
held out for the season just closed,
and as it has been pointed out by
everyone who has followed the game
this year, this was the greatest season
in the history of collegiate foot ball.
