SIXTEEN THE BRIDGEPORT TELEGRAM, MONDAY, JULY 18, 1927 ei I WILLIAMS LED IN HOMERS FOR WEEK Gehrig and Ruth Again Tied for Honors after Lou's 30th Clout. FLYNN PREDICTS K. 0. FOR DEMPSEY CHICAGO. July By Associated Press.) The leading home run performance of the past week was turned out by one who was fairly good at the trick before the present crop of clout- ers was out of shorl pants, the veteran Cy Williams of the Phillies.

Cy delivered three homers, and two of them were helpful In downing the ambitious Pirates in Saturday's double-header. This kept the Plttsburghers from slipping Into first place again. Lou Gehrig. the new aspirant to the home run throne, also collected three circuit drives, making his third one today, and resuming the tie with Babe Ruth at the 30 mark. None of the other leaders got more than one and several of them drew blanks.

The leading home run hitters In each league. Including today's games are: National League. Williams, Philadelphia, 18. Hornsby. New York.

SPRINGS, July 17--In answer to a lot of questions shot at me In the last few days, allow me to tell the woild that Jack Dempsey is in perfect condition, ready to step Into the and knock this Sharkey person for a row of ash cans at any moment. I know It seems odd for a boxer to lay off boxing six days before a fight but I am doing what I think is best for him. He is not going to leave his in the training camp as he did last year. Instead of a srale. worn out Dempsey.

you are going to see a healthy athlete, full of pep and vigor. I called off his boxing because ne show- Ing signs of being drawn too finely. From now on, unless I change my mind, he will do nothing but road woik and not much of that. When a fighter shows signs of growing stale, the only sensible thing Is to stop work immediately. That is why I called a halt.

If he can hold his present edge he will be good enough to lick all the Sharkeys in Boston. j.o show how confident I am, I have laid plans for a training camp for Dempsey's coming battle 'with Tunney. Sharkey is merely a stepping stone in Jack's Journey back to the world's heavyweight championship. In fact I think he would be champion if he had been properly trained last year. I think the fight will be a short one, although Jack Is prepared to go the full distance at top speed if necessary.

I look for a knockout In about three rounds, or any time Dempsey connects with that left hook of his. Sharkey is not a hard man to hit, as he has shown in his recent battles. Dempsey has demonstrated that he can stop anybody he can hit When he shoots over that left hand he is going to Jar Boston All this bunk about Dempsey'a being in poor condition hands me a good laugh. He is better now than he has been since he whipped Flrpo. I have been training boxers for a- number of years and I know what I am doing, MANDELL READY FOR CHALLENGERS ADDITIONAL SPORT NEWS LOU GEHRIG NOW TOPS "BIG EIGHT" BEARS TAKE HARTFORD LEADS Johnny Roser, However, Retains Individual Honors- Emmerich Best Run Scorer.

DETROIT, July 17--(By Associated Press Having punched the championship aspirations out of Phil McGraw In a ten-round boxing contest here last night, at least for the time being, Sammy Mandcll, lightweight tltlehold- er, today turned his eyes to the fistic horizon l.Tseaich of other "formidable" contenders who dispute his reign over the 135-pounders.

Eddie Kane, manager of the champion, Indicated a campaign was being mapped out for Mandell in which the leading contenders of the division will be given a crack at the title in the near future. McGraw's defeat was probably the most decisive in the rugged challenger's career. Mandell took away the play at the opening gong when he caught his foe coming In with a sharp right cross to the chin which came near ending matters at the outset. The blow shook McGraw to his heels and he reeled around the ring on the verge of a knockout but managed to finish the session. The challenger was on the defensive for the next few rounds and seemed to be regaining his strength.

In the sixth round, however, Mandell cut loose with another vicious' attack that left his adversary in a weakened condition. McGraw fought back gamely, but his blows lacked steam and were wild. The challenger landed only three or four solid punches during the entire ten rounds. JACK SHARKEY HAS SEVERAL FAULTS (Continued from Page Seren.) 6 rather, Flynn has done It for him, that he is through with boxing till he puts on the gloves in the ring at Yankee Stadium next Trursday night, Sharkey plans to keep right on going up to and through Tuesday afternoon. I think this is a good tholng.

He'll have two full days of rest and ought to be at concert pitch when he enters the ring. Pay no attention, however, to the yarn thatDcmpsey is throuth with box Ing He boxes every morning, and he has been doing this for 'some time, as I 'told you in an earlier article. It Isn't exactly "secret" because so many people know about It, but it Is done in seclusion, away from the prying eyes of the reporters and the visitors Dempsey is striving mightily to lash himself Into fighting condition and he, for one, believes he has done so Sharkey today went through two rounds of rope skipping and five rounds of boxing, one with Paul Cavalier, two with Johnny Urban, one with Leo Gates and one with Rocky Stone After this he wound up with three rounds of walloping the small bag. He shows an ability to keep going, and this bag-punching at the end of his boxing shows that he has plenty left when he finishes for the day. That's where the youth comes in, my friends.

(Copyright 1927 NEW YORK, July Associated Press Although dropping 20 points in the last week and 39 In the last two, Johnny Roser, of Bridgeport, still holds the batting leadership of the Eastern league. Other leading batsmen of the league chose the same time for a slump and Roser's .378 was good enough to top his nearest rival, Butler, of Providence, by four points. Johnson, of Springfield, clung to third place with a .370 for the period ending with Thursday's games, while Schlnkel, of Hartford, rose four notches In the week to take fourth place with Next came Bedford, Springfield, 350: Gill, Waterbury, Bowman, New Haven, Bates, Plttsficld, and Keesey, Hartford, .340. Wh'lle retaining the individual honors by narrow margin, Bridgeport lost ths team batting lead to Hartford during the week by a slump from .298 to .289. Bridgeport stayed on the bottom In 'fielding and Waterbury which led that department, was i last In the batting column.

In addition to the leading hitter, Bridgeport still had the leading run scorer In Bob Emmerich with 69, although he crossed the plate but twice during the week, Ben Bedford, Springfield, added no hits to his total but the 106 he made previously topped all opposition. Hal Yordy led In home runs with 18; Meyer, Bridgeport, and M. Walsh, Plttsfield. in doubles with 23 each; Rodriguez, Providence, sacrifices, 21; Ray Dowd, Hartford, and Martin. New Haven, stolen bases, 25.

Seven men who tied for the most triples with nine apiece were Roser, Bridgeport; Keesey, Hartford. Albert, Springfield; Kane, Providence: Moore, New Haven; Yordy, Albany, and Sperber, Bridgeport. Ed Baecht, Pittsfield. topped the pltchera with his six victories and one defeat, while Myrl Brown. Plttsfield, had the most shutouts with three.

There seem to be two main divisions of soothsayers who have some Idea of what will happen when Jack Sharkey and Jack Dempsey meet this week In New York. One division believes that Dempsey was at his best last September but that his best was terrible after three years of Idleness and that Jack Sharkey will cut him Into a number of human ribbons and possibly knock him out. The other division believes that for one reason or another--Illness, worry or something else--Dempsey was far below his normal output and that he will overpower both Sharkey and Tunney with more punching force than either can stand. This latter group doesn't believe that elhter Sharkey or Tunney can hit hard enough to keep Dempsey away and this will mean disaster for both when Dempsey crowds In and begins to unroll his fusllade of lefts and rights. They throw out the Philadelphia fight on different grounds, but they don't believe It represented the best Dempsey, at thirty-two, still has left.

The first division mentioned figures that a matter of twelve rounds In the last four years, since 1933, Is enough to suppress any fighter who has spent most of the time Since In living. And they Sharkey well enougn to have complete faith In his ability to win. The Sounder Group. The sounder, group of soothsayers doesn't come out for any flat-footed prediction. These believe that Dempsey must win In the first Nur rounds If he Is to win at all--that If he hasn't knocked Sharkey cold in four rounds he will be vivisected in the presence of some 80,000 people by a much faster and a much better boxer.

And it is about this way that the picture leans. Dempsey Is meeting a man who Is eight years younger, who Is a better boxer, with much more speed, who Is Just as big, just as strong and even more confident. No one could expect him to out- gallop this type of fighter through fifteen rounds and take away the decision. It Is a matter of doubt that he could have out-galloped Sharkey on the day he met Tom Gibbons, and that was four years ago, when Dempsey was twenty-eight. It will take a return at the old ring spirit and the old wallop to beat Sharkey and there is no prophet who can be sure of either under fire until the two men square away on Thursday night.

Dempsey's Chance. I Dempsey whipped Wlllard, Carpentler and Flrpo quickly with combination of speed and the wallop. He has dropped a large bundle of the old speed along the narrow, wind- Ing highway of time. He isn't a doddering old man yet. He still has enough speed to be extremely dangerous if he surges In with i the old rush and stars hammering with both hands to win or lose in a few rounds.

Any fighter who can hit even as hard as Dempsey hits today Is always dan- gerous. For, after all, the main principle of pugilism Is to nail the. other party as hard as you can, hitting hard enough to hurt and make It stick. Sharkey'a main trouble may come through overconfldence as he decides to wade In and swap wallops. This Is no way to fight Dempsey for he has more to trade when It comes to a matter of raw punching power.

He can still hit and If he lands something is going to bend, If not to break. If Sharkey can keep out of close range for five rounds, using-that fast accurate and cutting left, he should have no great trouble the rest of the route. But not even Sharkey with all his youth and stamina, can take too much of Dempsey's medicine and remain on top of both feet. But Sharkey is a cagey rlngman and he isn't likely to risk his shot at a $2,000,000 title by any foolish recklessness. Angles to Figure On.

"I can't see how any one can give Dempsey an outside chance," one of the ring veterans remarked. "Just figure out his record against fast men. When he was younger and stronger and better than he is today, he could not hurt Tom Gibbons. He couldn't hurt Bill Brennan until Bill collapsed because he was all in. He couldn't lay a glove on Harry Greb to one of his training camps.

And he couldn't hit Tunney with a shotgun at two paces. Figure this out and then Imagine him several years later, much slower than he used to be, less accurate In his hitting, falng one of the best and fastest boxers who has been around in years, a cool, crafty, vicious fighter who has been busy at his trade for over a year, a good boxer with a great left hand, who can cut and rip and who can also use a right counter as well as any one who has come along In this generation. Figure it all out. Put your prejudice aside and be Impersonal. Where does a Dempsey who has fought twelve rounds In three or four years figure to beat a man like Sharkey when you remember all the trouble he had with other good boxers--Gibbons, Brennan, Oreb and Tunney--at a time when he was far and away better than he can possibly be now? I don't think it takes an expert prophecy to get the low-down on this fight.

The dope Is spread out before any one who cares to check against It." Ana Then-All of which is true. And yet no observer who has seen how hard Dempsey still can hit Is willing to shove htm completely out of the picture with no chance to survive. Any man who can hit as Dempsey can hit Is nothing to laugh off, even If he has only a few flashes of the ring spirit that carried him to so many headlong assaults. And there is still too deep a haze of mystery over the Philadelphia showing, whatever the cause--sickness, worry or what-not to accept that fight as final testimony in compiling a Dempsey verdict. But no second-rate fighter Is going to have a chance with Jack Sharkey this week for Jack Sharkey is about as likely a looking product as the ring has sent to the front in a dozen years.

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.

July 17 Jack Dempsey's training camp operations here have cost him more money than any other non-champion in history. Dempsey has spent more money getting ready for the brawl with Sharkey than Sullivan, Corbett, Pltz and Jeffries earned In some of the Important battles of their championship careers, The ex-king of the pugs has had at least ten sparring partners constantly on his staff for three weeks. The ave- ragee payroll has been a week, or (4,500 for that part of the upkeep. He has had to pay their board, which has added around (1,500 to the sparring partner total--a grand cost of 500 merely for human punching bags. Dempsey has Leonard Sachs on the payroll as secretary; he has Jimmy De Tarr as press agent; Jerry The Greek as trainer, Gus Wilson as Major Domo or something like that; and he undoubtedly is paying Fred Tapscott, a Chicago detective, and Joe Benjamin, his pal, for loafing around the premises.

He has a cook and a housekeeper and must pay rent for his cottage, and he pays the board bills for that group, too, which, together with the approximate salary of each of the hirelings, perhaps will add (10,000 to the layout. Also there Is Leo P. Flynn to be taken care of, just how much Leo will get Is a secret. Dempsey undoubtedly will pay him (26,000 And so, the figures show that Dempsey will pay out (40.000 or so merely to thave a lot of folks help him to get ready the punching excursion against Jack Sharkey next Thursday night.

HOW TO PLAY THE SPOON. I would like to convince golfers that Just because the head of a club it made of wood is no reason why It should be played differently than If it were of Iron. I don't carry any driving Iron or cleek, my longest Iron being a mldiron. I prefer playing the spoon for those distances, and I play this spoon the same way that I do my midlron. So, if you don't carry the spoon and use the driving Iron or cleek you can rest assured that the following Instruction will apply to your clubs too.

My grip, of course, is the part finger and palm grip, the leather of neceslty touching the lower part of the palm of my left hand. The hands ehould be very close together so that they act as one. I like to feel the balance of the clubhead. Do not grip this club so tightly that you are tense, because with a wooden head even more so than iron there must be a relaxed swinging of It. Of course, you should not hold the clubhead so loose' that Its right angular face position Is affected.

I like the square stance for spoon shets. However, because you use thlr club often on fairways any stance near the square stance Is all right and acceptable. I have my feet Jxist, a little farther apart than on a drive. I like to be In such a position that my feet grip the ground somewhat as the different segments of the swing nre reached. Footwork in the spoon shot a very Important factor.

If you too open a stance you apt to get. In a position where It will be difficult for you to bring your left shoulder around to the clubhead. This would make It almost impossible to get your weight behind the shots, and, therefore, lose much of your opportunity for greater distance. Feet should be so placed that the whole weight of your body can be taken advantage of. As this club Is taking the place of an Iron one the player should think very carefully of his direction and his stance should be taken so that he can get that In the easiest way.

I don't like to see anybody turn his toes in for he can get much better pivot if they are turned out. They don't have to be turned ou(. equally, however. Anything for good pivoting IB the keyword for stance in this shot. The knees should be equally bent, the right one bracing back on the upstroke and the left one bracing back on the follow through.

The ball should lie almost exactly off ths left- heel.
