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.

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- uous: workouts which will be held 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.

In the high jump the com- petition will be among Weeks, Roth, 'Waldo and Burgwin, with the former Ihavin an edge on the other three. 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. Munz is the best Michigan entry in the shot, while Doyle is most able in.I the discus throw. In the hammer,, IMichigan will be represented by Haw- kins, winner of this event at the Penn relays.
