All boxing records for attendance and gate receipts appear certain to be shattered when Jack Dempsey crawls through the ropes in the Sesqui-C'entennial Stadium at Philadelphia to defend his title against the ex Marine, Gene Tunney. The expectations of Tex Rickard and Sesqui officials are that more than l.'tn.OOO spectators will pay approximately $2,000,000 to see the first heavyweight championship match in over three years, with the gigantic concrete structure, centered in the historic exposition grounds, witnessing an unprecedented spectacle in sports. Over two billion SET PREVIOUS RECORD Rickard reached astonishing promotion heights in 1021 when he at traded a throng ol' Oo.ooo fans who paid $1,(100,ooo to see Dempsey knock a month! out the, spectacular Frenchman, Georges Carpentier, in four rounds in the smoked wooden saucer at Hoyles’ Thirty Acres, Jersey City. These records arc the high marks for boxing now but they promise to be substantially bettered at Philadelphia. —how dot you it? It has been only in recent years that boxing, especially in the heavy- explain weight class, lias reached such planes of frenzied finance. The era of big ; bowls and stadiums, plus great popular interest, has made million dollar sr^. affairs of these big title bouts, with Dempsey the central drawing card. The present champion lias fought only six times in seven years, inclttd ing the bout in which he look the title away from Jess Willard In 1919. but these half dozen appearances have attracted gale receipts approximating $4,000,000, with Dempsey’s share running around $1,000,000.

  • Harry Wills and the Image of the Black Boxer from Jack Johnson to Joe Louis
    Harry Wills and the Image of the Black Boxer from Jack Johnson to Joe Louis B r i a n D . B u n k 1- Department o f History University o f Massachusetts, Amherst The African-American press created images o f Harry Will: that were intended to restore the image o f the black boxer afterfack fohnson and to use these positive representations as effective tools in the fight against inequality. Newspapers high­ lighted Wills’s moral character in contrast to Johnsons questionable reputation. Articles, editorials, and cartoons presented Wills as a representative o f all Ameri­ cans regardless o f race and appealed to notions o f sportsmanship based on equal opportunity in support o f the fighter's efforts to gain a chance at the title. The representations also characterized Wills as a race man whose struggle against boxings color line was connected to the larger challengesfacing all African Ameri­ cans. The linking o f a sportsfigure to the broader cause o f civil rights would only intensify during the 1930s as figures such as Joe Louis became even more effec­ tive weapons in the fight against Jim Crow segregation. T h e author is grateful to Jennifer Fronc, John Higginson, and Christopher Rivers for their thoughtful comments on various drafts of this essay. He also wishes to thank Steven A. Riess, Lew Erenberg, and Jerry Gems who contribu:ed to a North American Society for Sport History (NASSH) conference panel where much of this material was first presented.

  • Max Baer, Jr., He Cried and Had Nightmares Over the Incident for Decades Afterwards
    Biography He was born Maximilian Adelbert Baer in Omaha, Nebraska, the son of German immigrant Jacob Baer (1875-1938), who had a Jewish father and a Lutheran mother, and Dora Bales (1877-1938). His older sister was Fanny Baer (1905-1991), and his younger sister and brother were Bernice Baer (1911-1987) and boxer-turned actor Buddy Baer (1915-1986). His father was a butcher. The family moved to Colorado before Bernice and Buddy were born. In 1921, when Maxie was twelve, they moved to Livermore, California, to engage in cattle ranching. He often credited working as a butcher boy and carrying heavy carcasses of meat for developing his powerful shoulders. He turned professional in 1929, progressing steadily through the ranks. A ring tragedy little more than a year later almost caused him to drop out of boxing for good. Baer fought Frankie Campbell (brother of Brooklyn Dodgers Hall of Famer Adolph Camilli) on August 25, 1930 in San Francisco and knocked him out. Campbell never regained consciousness. After lying on the canvas for nearly an hour, Campbell was finally transported by ambulance to a nearby hospital where he eventually died of extensive brain hemorrages. An autopsy revealed that Baer's devastating blows had knocked Campbell's entire brain loose from the connective tissue holding it in place within his cranium. This profoundly affected Baer; according to his son, Max Baer, Jr., he cried and had nightmares over the incident for decades afterwards. He was charged with manslaughter. Although he was eventually acquitted of all charges, the California State Boxing Commission still banned him from any in-ring activity within their state for the next year.

  • The Panama Cannonball's Transnational Ties: Migrants, Sport
    PUTNAM: THE PANAMA CANNONBALL’S TRANSNATIONAL TIES The Panama Cannonball’s Transnational Ties: Migrants, Sport, and Belonging in the Interwar Greater Caribbean LARA PUTNAM† Department of History University of Pittsburgh The interwar years saw the creation of a circum-Caribbean migratory sphere, linking British colonial sending societies like Jamaica and Barbados to receiving societies from Panama to Cuba to the Dominican Republic to the United States. The overlapping circulation of migrants and media created transnational social fields within which sport practice and sport fandom helped build face-to-face and imagined communities alike. For the several hundred thousand British Caribbean emigrants and their children who by the late 1920s resided abroad, cricket and boxing were especially central. The study of sport among interwar British Caribbean migrants reveals overlapping transnational ties that created microcultures of sporting excellence. In this mobile and interconnected world, sport became a critical realm for the expression of nested loyalties to parish, to class, to island, to empire, and to the collective they called “Our People,” that is, “the Negro Race,” worldwide. †The author is grateful to Rob Ruck, Theresa Runstedtler, and three anonymous reviewers for the Journal of Sport History for very helpful comments on earlier versions.
