XSection Two)'
Long Beach High Has Slight
Weight Advantage On Coyotes
.Team Average Is 167, According To Figures Submitted
By Coast Sport Editor Eleven-Game Schedule Will
Be More Detrimental Than Helpful Locals Start Final
Week Of Practice For Big Game
Phoenix hljrh school jrridlrone rs xvill
enter upon their final lap of practice
tomorrow afternoon In preparation tor
the bijrjrest athletic event in which a
local team ha ever participated a
football game with Lorn? I teach high.
California state champions, to deter
mine the interscholastic gridiron cham
pionship of the southwest.
Only once in six years have Coach
Geary's men suffered defeat and that
was at the hands of a coast eleven
the Santa Anna squad. Will a si '.ond
. coast team again prove u felurnblinK
blo k?
There is nothing- on which to mold
even a mild comparison of the two
squads that will meet nxt Saturday
at Long- Beach in the bifrest game
ever played between high school
elevens in the southwest.' statistics
from the coast, however. m.H.ke the Sea
Eiders a bit heavier and far more ex
perienced than the locals. On paper,
in other words, Long- IScach appears to
have an edce.
L. B. Mas Weight Advantage
The average weight of the Jac k Rab
bits is 167, according to figures sup
plied by J. Franklin Hall, sporting edi
tor of the Ijong Beach Daily TVItKiam.
If this be true, then the coast squad will
have from thr-e to five pounds per man
on the Coyotes. As to experience, the
Seasiders have played an eleven-game
schedule this season a-s compared with
five for the locals. The Lons Beach
record for the season follows:
Long Beach 61; Wiittier Hish, 0.
Long Beach, 6S; Cnmpton High, 0.
Lons Beach, 62; Whittier State, 6.
Long" Beach, 13; L. A. Poly, 0.
Long Beach, 7; L. A. High. 0.
Long Beach, 58; Coronado, 0.
Long Beach, 41; I'asadena. 0.
Ixng Beavh, 21; Santa Monica, 0.
Long Beach, 47; Fullerton, 0.
Long Beach. 41; Dinuba. 0.
Long Beach 21; Berkeley. 14.
But the big question now is whether
this long schedule and long playing
season will work to the benefit of
Long Beach. If the team's play in
the Berkeley game eight days ago is
to be taken as a criterion, it will prove
a. burden that should make the Coyotes
the favorites when they take the field.
Coyotes Not Overtrained, Hardly
The whole world may just as well
know and realize that Coach Geary is
not going to send a bunch of over
trained, season-tired athletes against
Ijont; Beach. N'ot that anyone knows
anything about. On the "other hand,
he's taking about the jazziest, pepperl
est. most tree-heaited wearers of the
moleskin that ever trod & gridiron.
Over-trained! Say, this squad of
Coyotes have got so much pep that
they could run a mile, give their wolf
like namesakes a couple of miles
handicap and then beat the desert
wolves on a ltio-mile jaunt over hill
and dale. If Long Beach is figuring
on catching a team cold-handed, a
worn out, broken down machine, as it
were, the California state champions
are in for one of the hardest blows of
their career.
Norton to Play Quarter
Kvery member of the squad is now
in good physical condition save for the
single exception of Brawner, who is
now hopelessly out of the fray. Geary
has about definitely determined to send
Norton in at quarterback with Cap
tain Bryant callfng the signals. Cof
fey will also probably be out because
of scholastic difficulties.
Two scrimmages are on the program
for this week. Thursday the team will
do but blocking and tackling practice,
after which a fast signal drill will be
run. The squad will leave Thursday
evening for Long Beach.
Alumni representatives now on the
coast have received an invitation from
the Los Angeles Athletic club to have
the entire squad make the club their
headquarters while on the coast. The
invitation yill undoubtedly be ac
cepted. Long Beach has resumed practice af
ter a 6-day layoff and will work out
twice daily for the next few days.
Work was started yesterday in con
structing extra bleachers to give the
Long Beach field a seating' capacity of
15.000. The largest crowd that ever
witnessed a high school football game
on the coast is expected to turn out
for this game.

CHARLES RENTROP
Middleweight Grappler.
Charles Hentrop. holder o the
Kuropean middleweight wrestling
championsnip and possessoj of the
Ixrd Lonberry diamond-studded belt,
has accepted the challenge of (Jus
Pappos, claimant of the American mid
dleweight champion, who recently de
fied any wrestler in Arizona to step
into the same ring with him.
Rentrop, who is wintering in Phoe
nix with the "Wortham shows, read the
challenge and immediately headed for
The; Republican office, offering to bet
a neat little sum on the side that the
Greek over-estimated his own abilities
as a mat performer.
Pappos having Issued the open
challenge and Kentrop having accepted
the same, through The Arizona Repub
lican sporting department, about the
only thing that prevents the two from
getting together is the posting of a
forfeit. All contributions are heartilj
accepted.

Time Is money. Certainly is in the
case of Jack Dempsey. Kvery day he
holds out against feigning for a bour
with Carpentler the offer is raised.. It
started at $75,000 then went to $100.
000 and halted there momentarily
while the ores3 agents took a fresH
shot in the arm. The next halt in the j
thermometer was at the $125,000 and
then it went on upward to $15,000,
$175,000 and $200.0u0. ITcfs agents took
two shots thh; time and came back for
another struggle with the typewriter.
They found it easy to knock off a few
more figures and made it a. quarter of
a million. And someone must have
slipped an extra pill in their pipes for
the next seance, for they "hopped" to
$500,000. Still unconscious, both sport
ing public and the press agents, are
sparrinp for time and they'll come back
with more figures later. There is no
limit. But a buck in the hand Is worth
a whole row of figures on the type
mill.
July 4, 1921 Jack Dempsey today
was offered $20,000,000,000 for a match
with Carpentier. It is believed he is
now too weak to fight, however. He's
been broke for weeks and has eaten
only a few bit3 of dry bread with
water.
If time was money.
Jack would be a millionaire;
The dollars offered him to box
Are freer than the air.
"Oh, winter's camf." the hunter said
And chortled in his glee;
What if it has?" the golfer wailed,
"It ain't no good to me."

To keep out the cold
You can't beat a good, warm Overcoat
for real warmth and comfort, and espe
cially when the days are warm and the
mornings and evenings sharp and chilly.
You can "shed" the "Bennie" during the
middle of the day, and have it ready to
apply just at the right time when it gets
chilly.
Welve had a hard time to keep stocked
with Overcoats this season. We were prac
tically sold out by Christmas, then along
came a shipment of long- overdue coats.
Big, roomy loosebacks, some form fitting,
some belted backs just about the best
assortment we've had this season. Every
one all wool and of assorted color com
binations that leave nothing to be desired.
They're worth more money than we've
priced them: at, and wholesale quotations
for future delivery are still higher. You
can pay more money but you'll just about t
be pleased with those at
99
and
$40
