WILLS OR TUNNE
WLBE OPPONENT
Veteran Promoter Arrives In New
York With Contract Calling For
Fight In September
JACK PREFERS WILLS
(By Associated Press)k
NEW YORK, April 27.-Tex Rickard!
came home today with Jack Dempsey's
signed contract in his pocket. The
contract, he explained, signs Demp-
sey to fight under his promotion in
defense of his heavyweight title
against either Harry Wills or Gene
Tunney, some time in September,
"somewhere in New York or New Jer-
sey."
Rickard refused. to stipulate just
who would be Dempsey's opponent andj
furthermore, he said, the opponent
may not be announced until two
months before the fight, the final datP
for naming the challenger under the
terms of the agreement with the.
heavyweight champion.
"I don't know who it will be," said
Rickard, "but I'll tell you right now
Dempsey would rather fight Wills
than Tunney. He figures the negro,
will be an easier opponent."
"As soon as Pm ready with an op-
ponent, I will go to the State Athletic'
commission, lay out my plan and ask
for official approval.'
Rickard scoffed the report that
°Tunney and Wills would meet in an
elimination test before the Dempsey
light under his direction. But, he ad-
mitted, he knew Paddy Mullins, Will's'
manager, had signed a contract with
another New York promoter, signing
Wills to fight Tunney in the event his
alleged contract with Floyd Fitzim-'
nons for a Dempsey match is abrogat-
ed.
v Harry Wills said today he had never'
received any money from the Floyd
Fitzimmon's interests for a proposed
match with Jack Dempsey. Rickard
contended that Mullins received $25,-'
000, but that Dempsey did not receive
a cent and therefore the Chicago in -
terests abrogated their contract with
Dempsey and made it ' possible for
Rickard to step in and get the cham--
pion's signature.

NEW YORK, April 27.-Suzanne
Lenglen will not compete in the
United States Women's Tennis cham-
pionships at Forest Hills in August
in connection with her forthcoming
trip to this country to fulfill a motion
picture contract.
This was disclosed today by Charles
JC. Pyle, Chicago promoter, after filing
a request with the United States Lawn
Tennis association for sanction for ex-
hibition matches contemplated for the
French women's champion.
The advisory committee of the, U. S.
L. T. A. was to have considered this
request at its regular weekly meeting
but postponed action until next week
without indicating what course would'
be taken.
Mlle. Lenglen's plan to stay out of1
the American title tournament is not1
expected to meet with favor among
tennis. officials who pointed out today'
that inasmuch as she is coming to this
country anyway, it would be looked
upon as a return courtesy for her to
compete here in view of the entry of
Miss Wills in the French champion-
ships.
According to Pyle and his repre-
sentative, William IH. Pickens, who,
closed negotiations with Mlle. Leng-i
len abroad recently, the French ace
plans to arrive here late in August.,
Her intentions now is not to compete
either in the national championships,i
scheduled to start August 16, or in the
proposed Franco-American women's
team match here, inasmuch as she ex-
pects to try conclusions abroad with
Helen Wills, as well as other Ameri-
can stars, in the French and English
championships in June and July.

Coach Fisher excused the remainder
of the men from practice and gave
them the day to rest up for the stren-

during the remainder of the week. The
cessation of practice was hailed by
the majority of the players as a bless-
ing, for they have spent the last four
nights in railroad sleepers in addi-
tion to indulging in two trying games
on foreign soil.
The squad as a whole will be in
much better physical condition against
Syracuse, as Dutch Wilson's leg should'
be' totally healed by that time, andIi/
Kubicek's shoulder should not bother
him this week-end. The hitting'

'Waldo and Burgwin, with the former

Michigan was weak in the high jump
in indoor meets, but with the addition
of Weeks, who was ineligible previous
to spring vacation, the"squad will be
strengthened considerably.
No trials will be held in theuhurdles
as Coach Farrell knows what men will
mane the trip. Voelker and Snider are
the probable Maize and Blue entries
in both the high and low hurdles.
i Voelker showed up well in the indoor
season and can be counted on to place
well Saturday, providing he recovers
from his injury.
In the pole vault Northrup, Huff and
Prout will fight it out to determine
what men shall make the trip, while
Stirling and Snider will compete in
the broad jump. Both Northrup and,
Lovette are good permformers in the
javelin and the latter is also an able
performer in the shot put.
