"DEMPSEY JUST MADE FOR WILLARD TO LICK," SAYS SPARRING PARTNER, MONAHAN
HARD FIGHT FOR SCHIFF
WITH YOUNG MAHONEY
Baltimoreans are predicting a
future for Young Mahoney, the
gentlemanly little lightweight boxer,
who suggests that former master
of lightweights, Joe Gans. While
little is heard of him hereabouts,
except when he is booked to ap
pear in this city, it is ring history
that he has knocked out Eddie
Loeckner in four rounds; beat Terry
Ketchell and bested Joe Jackson,
two crack New York boxers. These
bouts were held in Baltimore be
fore the Triple A Athletic Club,
since Mahoney's last appearance in
Karrisburg three weeks ago, and
the local fans are up in the air
over the ten-round bout scheduled
before Joe Barrett's Iron Division A.
C , in Steelton, next Monday night,
at Quartet Hall, between Mahoney
and Sammy Schiff.
While Schiff looks to have the
edge on the Baltimorean as to ex
perience, it cannot be denied that
Mahoney is a natural born tighter
and his many admirers, both here
and in Steelton. are looking for him
T,o spring a surprise on Schiff.
For the first time in history of
local boxing, according to a letter
from Mahoney's manager, Max
Waxman, a party of at least twenty
Baltimoreans will come over to root
for their favorite.

"Tony" Biddle Says No
Referee Is Chosen Yet
'.-A-. '..
•.; >■■,--*- ~. . ~ ait-u, „&
aSess "W iiuaanjt. ✓*>*.
A recent picture of the big champion working hard at the pulleys be
fore a big crowd at his training camp in Toledo.
The referee for the "Wlllard-
Dempsey world's championship bout,
to be held at Toledo on July 4, has
not been named yet.
On Tuesday night, when word
came from Toledo to the effect that
Major A. J. Drexel Biddle, U. S. M.
C., of Philadelphia, who is the head of
the Army, Navy and Civilian Board
of Boxing Control, had been appoint
ed to name the referee, judges and
other officials for the fight, Major
Biddle was immediately reached on
the telephone and asked who he
would name.
He replied that he had selected
William H. Rocap, of this city, after
having, suggested him and Jack
Skelly, of New York, a week ago.
Major Biddle said that he had wired
Tex Rickard, promoter of the fight,
on Tuesday night that his final se
lection would be Mr. Rocap.
Yesterday Major Biddle said that
a mistake had been made and that
the matter of the referee would have
to be taken up by the entire Board
of Boxing Control. His statement
follows:
"When I recommended names of
referees I did it in a purely private
capacity. The position is now
changed. I have others to consider,
and there is a big responsibility upon
my Board. We will call a meeting
of the Board in a few-days and de
cide the matter in our collective ca
pacity. In behalf of my Board I
wish to acknowledge the great com
pliment which has been paid this
organization. It is characteristic of
Mr. Rickard and the Toledo Boxing
Commission that they should han
dle this matter in such an open and
straightforward way. It certainly
must silence all those who-have sug
gested that everything is not perfect
ly straightforward in this exhibition.
And it will strengthen the hands of
the promoters in afty action that
might be taken at this exhibition by
those who are opposed to it. '
There is one man, at least, who
is so confident that Willard will put
Dempsey away before the twelve
rounds are over that ho stakes his
reputation on the claim Sergeant
Walter Monahan, U. S. A., who
knows Wilard more intimately than
any other person. Three years he
traveled and boxed with the cham
pion, and he says: "Dempsey was
just made for Willard to lick." Ho
goes on to explain:
"You know Jess has a tantalizing
way of making them come to him.
Let Dempsey tear in with his head
down with a view of putting Wil
lard away by a series of body punches
and he will find himself on his back
taking the count. And when they
get it coming in, the force of the
blow is doubled; it is an impact,
too. It is 254 pounds meeting 190,
and something is sure to drop.
"It does not matter how Dempsey
fights Willard; the result is sure to
he the same. The big fellow has a
straight left, and he knows how to
use it in an unerring fashion. He
is perhaps th 6 only heavyweight
who has ever graced the ring who
can drop a 200-pound man with a
straight left and if it cops him on
the chin the bout will be over,
whether it be tho first round or the
I twelfth.
"Now don't let anyone delude you
with the ideil that Willard Is hog
fat. He knows the comfort of good
physical condition. He has a superb
foundation to build on. It does not
take him long to get in fighting
shape. All he needs is a cushion of
muscles across his stomach and his
wind so that he can travel at top
speed for twelve rounds. I know he
can accomplish that.
"The last time we boxed in Texas
it was at a war charity carnival. The
oilmen and cattlemen wanted to see
a real fight. We went at it hard. X
was in splendid condition, being vir
tually trained to the minute. Wil
lard began to touch me up hard, and
X returned the compliment. The
crowd, including the timekeepers,
became so excited that the latter for
got to pull the bell, and the first
round lasted five minutes. We boxed
three additional rounds, United
States Army rujes, and Willard was
fresh at the finish.
"Yes, Jess Willard can get in
and he will beat Jack Demp
sey. The protege of Jack Kearns
was just made for the world's heavy
weight champion."

"Lefty" Hummel and "Dutch"
Conner opposed each other in a
pitchers' duel la'st evening in an Al
lison Hill contest that was won by
Reading 2 to 0, over St. Mary's.
An error in the second inning that
would have retired the side gave
Reading the only two runs that were
scored during the entire contest. Hits
were few and far between, both
teams gathering only a total of
seven. Support on the whole was
good. Catcher George Swartz banged
out two of his team's three hits,
while Catcher Schaeffer also drove
out a pair of peaches.
Had Mayor Keister been present
at the contest last night, he would
undoubtedly have ordered one of the
"ossifers" to "pinch" "Mose" Swartz
for robbing a batter. In the opening
of the third. "Lefty" Hummel shot
a hot one off his bat past third base.
The youthful made a one
hand stab, and hurled the pill to first
in time to retire the runner. It was
one of the star plays of the even
ing.
Catcher Schaeffer also pulled a
thriller when he kicked the bucket
in going after a high foul. Schaeffer
gave the water boy some extra work
and in spite of the fact that he had
to put on his life saver to keep him
self from drowning in the water
bucket, he made a pretty catch that
doused the batter.
To-night Galahad and Rosewood
will fight it out for second place, as
the two teams are tied for second
place. The same two aggregations I
