Pitcher NlF.Ti Luque of Cincinnati has been rior to that of other pitchers for a period five years hat he easily has earned the honor of being the leading pitcher of his league. It is interesting to note that he has soared to the top after quite a drop from his 191'9 form. He dropped to .591 in 1920, to .472 in 1921 and to iu 1922. credited with a fine season in li)3. but it seems that he did better even than he has been given credit for.

Gourley, assistant secretary of the sand lot unbeaten, his reign will have lasted five years. And two days before the Fourth the champion will be 29 years old. Five years a champion at the age of 29 is something for a starter.

Dempsey in these four and a half championship years all ready checked off has kept himself in ideal physical condition for the business at hand. He has done just enough training to keep good general health, with his speed unslackened, and he has done just enough loafing and relaxing to keep from going stale. He won the title at 188, and even through a two-year rest he went at top weight only a pound or so above 200. He has needed only a fortnight to reach 195 or under and pick up most of his old speed. 1 The Age Average.

How long will Dempsey laat? John. Sullivan lost his title at the age of 34; Corbett at the age of 31: Fitzsimmons at the age of 36: Jeffries at at 37, and "W'illard at 38. Only one champion in over thirty years haH been whipped before he was 34 and that was Corbett referring here to heavyweights. organization, upon his' return from the east last night. However, is me oest recora attained in all that time in the National league with the exception of the one Luque rolled up in 1923 For pitchers who took part In five complete games or more, the records for the National league, beginning in 1919, were as follows: In 1919.

Luque, Reutlier, Sallee, Fisher, .737 all Cincinnati players. Jess Barnes of New York has a .735. In 1920 the only National leaguer to pitch .700 or better was Clarence Mitchell of Brooklyn, whose percentage was .714. In 1921 Glazner and Adams of Pittsburg tied with .737 and Doak of St Louis pitched .714 ball. In 1922 Douglas of New York led with .733.

Luqtie's skill in 1923 was so manifestly supe in the American league who have done better than Luque. These are Bush and Kolp, in' 1922. Kolp, however, did not pitch near- The plan which involves cooperation with the Play Ground and Recreation Association of America, depends upon division of iy as many garner l.uque ami the. lattar's record ia better by cotnparlaon It will be noted that In 1019 the Cincinnati club possessed four pitchers with a better average than 700, which Is tine of the really big events nf modern haxe. the country into geographical sec tions, uourlev said.

hampions of each section will be decided in in tercity series, the winners to be sent to the tournament to deter mine the national champion. Courier said that -he had re ceived assurances that the Balti more meeting will be the largest ball, and it is no wonder that Cincinnati won the championship that year. Bush atttalned his record of .70 tn 1022 by Pitching twenty complete games, bm un.ua obtained hia record ot .771 In 1023 by pitching twenty-tight complete games. Of course, the latter performance Is better than Pen-nock in 102a pitched twenty.otie games to make hia .700. The more l.uque'a pitching is analysed la 1123 the greater hecomcs in com-paiison wiih the work of his rivals.

Ha set out in 1023 to pitch thirty games and fell short of that by only two. And, while doing it, he jumped from the booby prlzedom of 1022 to the top of Ms leaguiv The average age of defeat is a trifle over 35. Dempsey to reach the average has six more years to go. And is certainly above the average heavyweight champion. He has durability, stamina, speed and punching power, and, approaching 29, he is still in fine physical shape, with his speed intact.

3j Erminio turn deal out niore than the human frame can stand. Tom Gibbons and Bill Brennan alone have lasted more than four rounds against him in the last six years. The Combination. To our way of thinking Dempsey combines more qualities for prize ring greatness than any champion that ever fought. He has every quality for attack speed, power, craft, coolness, ring courage, lightning reactions and durability.

This may appear to be laying it on a trifle thick, but it is true. His one weakness is in defensive fighting, but no than can be a great defensive boxer who concentrates almost entirely upon attack. You can't think one way and act another and get away with it. Dempsey thinks in terms of assault, and so leaves himself open to be hit. Fortunately for him, he can take a lot of hitting.

Willard, Brennan, Carpentier, Gibbons and Firpo have all landed squarely, but none of them has sent him to the resin for the count, Firpo alone starting the melancholy toll by driving him through the ropes. The Gamble. This comparatively defensive weakness of Dempsey may cost him the title within the next, year or But we doubt it. It came near costing him the crown against a man he had knocked down seven times in less than two minutes.

The strong Creighton university basketball team, which drubbed the Indiana university five, added another victory to its list last night when it walloped the Iowa university quintet, last year's Western conference champions, 36 to 13. A powerful offensive in the second half, which completely smothered the Iowa Hawkeyes, enabled the Blue tossers to win by such a heavy score. Oreighton outplayed by Iowa in the first half of a nip and tuck battle, the invaders having a 11 to 10 lead at the intermission. It was a thriller during the first twenty minutes of play but the last period was a walkaway for Coach Schabinger's athletes. In the second period Creighton played sensational basketball.
