Mulvihill has been Irvine to ret ud
a boxing bout between Fulton and
Dtmpsey, to be fought In Danbury,
04an July 4. He has been busy send
ing out press noticed, and J. the II.,
t6o claims a right to guide tho des
tinies of Jack Dcmpaey, sends out
rxtUnter (iters notices. J. the It. says
Ibat he will horn In on Dempsey'a
money, or thcro will be no fight. MuU
Tljilll says there will bo a fight, and
'.the It. will bo standing on the cor
i itar outside.
jMulvlhlll explains that he Isn't run.
alng the fight for financial gain. Far
from him be such a thought. He Is
rtfiitilhr It to give 10 per cent, of the
gross receipts to the Danbury War
Cljarltlea. Mulvihill writes that his
father was a Civil War veteran, and
that all of his own brothers are now
Injthc sen-ice and fighting for France,
.ffturally ho wants to do something
ret the soldiers,
f f. the II. admits that hla Idea In
i trilng to prevent tho tight at Dan

own pocket.
3. the U. takes one mean swat at
promoter Mulvihill. He writes his
namo "Mulverhlll."
Meanwhile, Joe Mulvihill goes right
aJing serenely. His latest "flimsy" In
a masterly article on Mulvihill and

"Tho Fulton. Dempsey contest to be

Itut while he mentions each flrlitei
I but once ho makes up by mentioning
tho name of Mulvihill (that In to say,
"Mr. Mulvihill") no less than rJevei
times. Which strlkei a fulr averaga.
fpn the other hand, J. the II. type
writes, with many protests of
honesty and sincerity, a short b-it
touching account of his own firmness
nd sterling sense of justice, not to
mention truly humanitarian syrr.
l.rny with "Mr. Mulverhlll." So that
the1 newspapers won't make any nils
take, and leavo bis name out of th
headlines, he writes his own head
line. The first word In It Is" a name
and the first letter of tho name Is
"It" 'We'll let it go at that.

Ray Rivers Writes From
He Misses Evening World Sporting Pages

Ray Rivers, the California boser, who did quite a bit of finhting
hereabouts, writes from "over there:"
FRANCE, May 30.
To the Sportlno Editor, New York Evening World:
Deor Friond: A few lines to let you know that I have been hsre
In France now a number of weekt, getting ready for the blggtit fight
of my career, but you can gamble on one thing, and that is that I will
be in better ahape than I waa for a lot of my bouts in New York.
There is one thing that I miss more than anything else (even Droad.
way), and that fa the sporting sheet or The Evening World. Qee, I'd
give anything If I could only see John Polloek'a Flatlo Column onee in
a while. We get a little basebsll pews here, but no fight dops, and
am Just wondoring how all the battlers ore getting along since I left
that good old U. S. A. Don't forget to lot all the boys know where I
am, also give my beat regards to Mr. PollotK Mr. Edgren and Denny
Kaulf. I plsced a littlo bet on the Giants a few dsys ago and I hope I
don't net "knocked" before I collect. Drop me a line when you have
n a mtr ne
time.
As ever.

hard pressed by Mrs. THomuH Huek

took 9j.
This tournament, with a larger
cntrv than u year ago. Is a oubstltu
tlon'for tho tifitiu.il championship. The
committee, which Is practically hold
ing the event for the benefit of the
Hed Cross, has net out to raise J500
this week, and more than half that
amount was In sight as a result of the
m.i... ti.nm.v. Thrro was a - fee.
but a number of the women doubled
and tripled that amount.
If several motnher.i of tho executive
Commute.! found It dltllcult to do
themselves Justice In a scoring way,
it was not surprising, nil things con
sidered. Mrs. I'. K. Donohoc. the
President: Mrs. C. F. Ubelackor. the
Secretary, and Mrs. M. H. I rayno of
the committee all have sons In tho
strvlre. As Mrs. William Chllvcrs
put It: "Wo are all doing what we
can. and little wonder our golf has
suffered."
When 't i remembered that Mlaa

she put up jeatcrdav appears tho
more creditable.

bringing ur tn the rough In front of

It Impossible to get hotter than a 7
for the hole. Another bad spot was
e.n S at the ninth, but that hole, more
than fi"0 yard, hnd ull the players
worried. As It was. Mrs. Stockton
reached the turn In 48 Coming back
several retlier short putts wera
missed although nothing worie than
G's were recorded.
Mrs. Hiu-knnll. who. like Mla Lounav-
bery. was a late entrant, had never aeen
the couro before Sunday when she
played iuid round. She found the greens
n trine deceptive, although after once
settling down she played well cnouath.
Severn! topped "lint were responsible
for her taking Go to tlin turn She also
had u 7 ut the tenth, but played the next
eight holes two better than i'r. At the
thirteenth the Forest Hill woman ap
proached cloee to III", flng and gut down
the putt for a 3. Tlio hole is ISO yards ,
long.
Miss Lotimury's longest drive, a JftO
