However, there have been a lot of nasty rumors since Gene 1 unnej %von the bea\yweight championship from Ja>k Dentpse). and more unsatisfacton reports since Mickry Walker won the middlet title from Tiger Flowers. There i* ri> doubt that Dempsey looked exceedingly bad in hi* fight with Tunney. and if they should ever be rmatched and Dempsey be ret imed the victor, it :» practically certain that the greater pan of the pubti. would belr.i that last bout was not all

ft y* Looks Rath ra Fishy 1 am not of a tuspiciuus mind, but the reported stipulation in the agreement between Jack Kearns and Walk Miller, respective managers of Walker and Flowers, that thr latter be given a ret uni match within three months in the event that he lose his .itlc. did not make the bout look any too good. It may be all right for MiRer and Flowers to protect fhei intereslv but as soon as sie« an arrangement is made it lays thr bout open to suspicion, espo tally in a fight of this kind, where the
Atlanta negro figured to win.
It will be interesting now to see if Kearns and Walker go through with the alleged agreement to meet Flowers again within three mouths. If Walker should win. eveiYthing will be all right. But if he daren't it will not do the sport any good. Those who have seen Walker in his last three or four bouts are unanimous in the opinion that he is only a shell of tlx Walker who held the wclterwTtgJit championship and who waged such a great battle against Harry Cireb in thei- dash to' the middleweight title.

but the present game, even though it is played harder than ever before and by a groat many more men and buys, has fewer serious Injuries than twenty years ago. The answer lies not only in the absence of trass Plays, bi In the fact that the training methods of today are ao uiiirh better, and the playera are In vastly sup-rior condition when game time conn* around. Eighteen players were killed In 1»0 5 and about 160 Injured, but you heard of very few fatalltita or serious hurts during the recent
It* bad years. In one season. 102J. six "Knights of ’he Roaring Hoad” were killed. The loss of Jimmy Murphy. Joe Boyer, Dario fiesta. Ernie Ansterberg. Ear! WUsnn. and Ralph Thomas

Indirectly caus’d by Bud Taylor, are few and far between. The supervision of the various boxing commiesions Is usually too strict to permit an unconditioned fight- to enter the ring.
