THF. LINCOLN Jack Dempsey Drops in Hole of His Own Digging i INTO FIGHT TRAP Telegram Agreeing to Mix With Wills Stands As Legal Document. Message On File With New York Commish Binding On Dempsey. GREB FIGHT IS OFF. LOS ANGELES, July Dempsey, heavyweight champion, refueed today to either deny or confirm a re- port that he will box Gene Tunney under the promotion of Charles Stoneham and his associates.

Jimmy Deforrest, former trainer of Dempsey and now agent Stoneham who is in Los was reported to reached an agreement with both the cham pion and his manager, Jack Kearns, for the Tunney bout Deforrest declared he was here in an attempt to sign the Dave Shade-Mickey Walker bout for the Polo Grounds on Labor day or some other date in September and denied he had even tentatively arranged the Dempsey- Tunney contest. Dempsey apparently has no tention of fighting Harry Greb Michigan City in September claiming the time is too short for him to get into that the adjustment of his with Manager Kearns will occupy too much of his time to permit proper training. BY DAVIS J. WALSH. NEW YORK, July Dempsey has signed a contract to meet Harry Wills in a heavyweight championship bout in New York on Julv He may not know it but the die h.

been cast and the direful deed done. He did It with his little telegram, announced from Los Angeles yesterday, In which he duly accepted the time, place and the opponent. In the eyes of the law', that telegram becomes a legal it Is just as binding as though ie signed the formal papers calling for this. Caught On ths Hook. Mist akes will happen and sometimes the hangman finds his rope taught on the under side of his Adam's apple.

If Dempsey has no real Intention of meeting Wills, that telegram will constitute one of several managerial errors he has committed since his interlocutory divorce from Jack Kearns. Another is his inactivity in permitting Kearns to come on to New York alone. That mental gymnast Is not taking the trip just for the ride. He has business here and by the time he has everything fixed up he no longer will be under the local ban. He will he able to manage, second, console, advise and otherwise control the activities of Mickey Walker.

Kearne Seeks Reinstatement. Kearns is coming hack to New York to obtain reinstatement. If this Involves anything unpleasant for Dempsey, such as forty-five minutes or less in the same enclosure with an unfriendly colored man, so be it. Kearns, I have been given to understand, is now ready to line up with the forces that are attempting to heckle Dempsey into a match with Wills. In order to make the telegram binding, the commission, of course, must first receive it.

The message of good had not arrived at the local office up to last night and Chairman James E. Farley could not he reached this morning for a statement. Room in Filing Case. Rut if the commission is smart, It will make no statement. It will merely take the telegram and place It on file with the rest of the contracts.

In a court of law-, the commission might have to prove that Dempsey signed the message but that should be easy. He proclaimed its existence to the world yesterday. He was proud of the thing. His motives, of course, were quite plain. He knew, unless something definite was done before next Tuesday, that the commission would read him right out of his title.

This might prove to he nothing more than a minor operation at the worst, hut it would be a painful one, nevertheless. He Discovered Cobb and Gray MACON, July fans have been told innumerable times that Tyrus Raymond Cobb, the flalming Georgia Peach, was by George Leidy, veteran club owner, manager, scout and umpire.

Fort Worth in turn shipped him to Paris, Texas, in the Texas-Oklahoma circuit, and Gray, after winning 23 games agiiinst four losses, was snatched off by the Athletics. In 1924 Sammy won eight against seven defeats and started the 1925 season like a whirlwind, gaining nine victories before receiving his first loss of the season.
