JACK AND
;ll HAVE OWN IDEAS IN
i PREPARING FOR BOUT
Carpentier Bars Public From His Training Camp, and
So Does Dempsey Those Who Haven 't Gqt the
Price of Admission
By BOBE1XT W. MAXWELL
Sports Editor KTvnlnr Fnblle Iedfcr
THE first round of the training season with Georges Carpentier and Jacques
Dempsey as the principal characters has begun. Georges has announced
' an old-fashioned idea of working behind closed gates four days a week and
allowing the newspaper men to be present the other three days. N"o admission
will be charficd, and Carpentier will pay his bills without the help of an
enthusiastic nnd anxious public.
Dempsey also will work behind closed gates closed to those who cannot
dig into their jeans nnd produce one Iron man to bo used for admission pur-
posen. The arena nt the Airport has been completed. First, the ticket offices
were built and roomy entrances placed nearby. Then came a high fence, nnd
last of all, the ring. Now everything is ready for the mob.
Modern training for a big fight Is n profitable business. Jacques expects to
get something like $50,000 beforo leaving Atlantic City for Jersey City on Juno
2. This will mako it possible for the champion to cat three squares a day nnd
y keep several flocks of wolves from the door.
On the other hand, Carpentier will havo to kick in with real dough from
his own bankroll. This is a terrible social error. Paying one's own money
for one's own expenses isn't done any more. Perhaps Georges will get
hep to the system after he has been here a short time. In tho olden days the
boxers used to go under heavy oxpenso in the training period. Jim Corbett told
"me that it cost him $15,000 to train for his fight with Charley Mitchell in
Jacksonville, Florida, in 1S94. Money could go a long way in those days, too.
Carpcnticr's old-fashioned ideas might be best after all. lie will not be
- annoyed by crowds of fight bugs who insist on shaking his hand until he yells
,for help. Those guys are at every training camp, nnd Georges will not miss
them. Also, he will bo nblo to work in his own way and not feel that he hns
to give the spectators a run for their money. If he feels like boxing with his
sparring partners, bo will do so. If not, ho can loaf nil day.
Dempsey will be forced to mnul his partners around the ringicvery day and
fcland for the jibes and jeers of the cash customers. There arc advantages and
disadvantages in training in the open, where the turnstiles arj clicking, but as
long as tho'dlcks are numerous, the boxer should worry.
TEE champion pulled a ni&i little publicity stunt when n invited
Carpentier to sec him train and would tend complimentary tickets
any old time. Furthermore, he announced he would not have anybody
at Manhasset to lamp the Frenchman.
Jack Kcarns Is Shretvd Manager
ITTHEN Dempsey was training for the Willard battle. Jack Kcarns, his man
VV ager, pulled one of the smartest tricks on big Jess and got away with It.
No matter what you say about Kcarns, he is about the smartest and shrewdest
manager in tho boxing game. He knows every nnglc of the sport and knows
how to uso his brains. He proved it before the Toledo disaster.
Willard was one of the most suspicious persons that ever boxed. ITe wai
' afraid of everything and kept away from strangers. He also feared Kcarns
and sat up late at night wondering what the cunning manager would do next.
Jack learned the number of Willard's private phone and late at night he would
:have somebody call up and ask : "Is this the Old Man's Home?" Then when
,J "Willard would answer the negative the voice on the other end would say :
"Well, you ought to be there", you big stiff."
That was one little trick that used to get the big boy's angora. Another
'"'was to spread n report that Kearns climbed a high trco near the arena every
day and watched Willard through a strong field glass. Jack nevcT did this,
but Jess believed every word of it. Guards were stationed around every high
tree from then on.
Later a report was spread for Willard's benefit that detectives, wearing
heavy disguises, were at the ringside every day taking notes on every move
made by the champion. This caused another commotion, nnd Jess couldn't
work touch because he was looking over the audience to spot the spotters.
One day a couple of comedy sleuths appeared and eat In the front row.
One wore false whiskers hanging over his left ear and the other n phony
mustache stuck under one of his eyes. Big notebooks completed the picture,
and when Willard saw them, be became enraged and had them taken out. After
that curious customers wearing their own whiskers were closely scrutinized at
the gate and made to prove the spinach was on tho level.
Willard fell for that Bort of stuff and that was the reason for pulling it.
Carpentier ia built differently. Ho is too smart to be fooled like that, and
everybody knows It. Therefore, it's a cinch he will not be annoyed.
'mwn-lLL of which proves there are many little tricks which are used
in the boxing game.
LcbourvcaiCs Atonement
OS THURSDAY the boys dropped an eleven-inning game to the S'Lose
Cardinals by a count of 3 to " when "Bevo" Lebourvcau pulled a Snod
grass, lfwas hard luck for "Bevo" and the rest of the crowd, especially as
they deserved to win and might have but for that muff.
However, that was on Thursday. Yesterday was another affair. Yester
day the boys came Tight back and met the ferocious Cards in the third game
of tho series. Before the game started each team had won a gnme. Now the
Phils have won two. The score was 4 to 3, and it was Lcbourveau who brought
it back where it belongs.
He came up In the fifth Inning with Jimmy Ring roosting on first and
two gone. Prior to that the Phils had tallied twice and thus overcome a
one-run Cardinal lead. After Lcbourveau swung the ball seemed to have a
business engagement In tho general direction of Kensington, and the Phillies
were leading by 4 to 1.
- No matter what the experts say, it's handy to have a bird hanging around
who can come through with a homo run once in a while. It was certainly
a fitting atonement for tho blunder of the day before. Also it developed after
ward, that without that home-run tock the Phils might have been licked, for
the Cards put over two runB in the ninth.
A few of the lnteretslng little sidelights yesterday included Fournler's
home run In tho first, when he slammed the ball so high Into the bleachers
in deep left center that it almost unroofed the clubhouse.
rADDITIOy to that, the only infieldcr in the big league) who
wears spectacles teat trotted out to be exhibited. His name is
Top order, and ho grounded out while batting for demons.
Wrestling a Great Sport
rVO DATE there Is no indication of who the next heavyweight wrestling
X champion of the world will be, but the chances are that whoever it is
has a pretty good idea of It.
It may be a little early to start figuring on the next holder of the title,
ilnce Stanislaus Zbyszko copped the honors only the other week when he
pinned the massive shoulders of Ed "Strangler" Lewi to the mat in N'Yawk.
Zbyszko is a remarkable athlete beyond n doubt. Approximately forty
U years old, he still Is good enough to match bis strength, speed, and power
against the best of them, but that doesn't enter into this little discussion.
The wrestling game is a great spoTt. If vou don't believe it, ask the
promoters who pack 'em in to see a oouplo of birds built like the side view
of a hippopotamus slam each other around until one gets a dislocated spine
or finds his car interfering with the sight of one pye.
At least, it used to be a great sport in the days when Frank Gotch and
n lot of Terrible Turks and others with names like prize-winning German
police dogs were hanging around getting a one-line head in the newspapers
occasionally when they broke somebody's neck.
"Them was the days," as Ilughey Jennings said to Connie Hack.
IirT note things are different. The boxing promoters, oil-wrll
D Wallingfords and even old P. T. Barnum himself could learn a few
wrinkles from some of these wrestling promoters.
Interest Not Allowed to Lag
FTTHEX don't allow the title to rest on the dome of n champion long enough
X to leave a crease in his hair, let alone forfeit public Interest.
'Since Gotch retired the title holders have been considerable of n joke,
and the showman methods used in putting the big matches over are even
mere of a laugh.
"When Caddock got the tide the old publicity wheel started to gTlnd.
H vna billed as tho wonderraan with a hundred holds. Then nlong came
Jo Stecher and they fixed up a nice little match with Caddock for him. Then
Stecher's scissors hold got Into the pink color sections.
But with Stecher apparently Buprcmo there was danger of the crowd
fvins back to vaudeville for entertainment Instead of passing their shekels
& at the wrestling box office.
That would never do. They brought along "Strangler" Lewis, nnd had
him toss Caddock to show that he was as good o man as Stecher. Then they
turned Lewis and Stecher loose at each other and Lewis got the title.
But ngain there was danger of some loss of interest, so they dug tip
old Stan Zbyszko, who still Li a mighty good wrestler and probably far
superior to any of the others. They had blm throw Stecher to show be was
aa food a man as Lewis. Then they turned him and Lewis loose at each
other and Zbyszko got the title.
Scnr they have got to Ret eomebody else to throw Lewis just to show
fcsfr M good a man as Zbyszko, and then the big Pole win probably get a job
afifTif the ferryboats off ontil they need him again. All of which proves
great game and Barxram was right.
T1LBO Frank Ootoh could have tied the whole crowd into boteknots
T the same evening without mussing his hair.

Best Amateurs of Great Britain and America to Clash Ua
First Matches of Big International Tourney on" 1
English Links . l)j
Br GRANTLAND RICE
Liverpool, Eng., May 21.
FOR sixieen years ever since the
triumph of 10&1 ve have been at
tacking Uritish golf ramparts, oil and
on, only' to be repulsed with heavy
slaughter. v
uutsfdo of Bob Gardner s gallant bid
last Juhc, thero has been an indigo
setting around each invasion; but the
time has come at last when America
seems to be in striking distance of tho
goal.
The Eagle and Lion have been
training together at Hovlnke. onlr n
. ". . . : . a . . . ... . i.
short journey out of Liverpool, for.
several oays, ana witnin the next forty
eight hours wo will begin to get the first
returns.
For on Monday the first of the big
international series geta under way
and the opening act will be a joust at
golf between the best amateurs that
Great Britain and the United States
can muster.
Tho II. S. Team
Captain Bill Fownes, being an In
timate student of golf history, under
stands" the long ltnc of disasters that
his team must wipe out to recover our
golfing prestige and let British galleries
understand that an Amcricnn isn't ex
clusively allied with bunkers and trnps.J
oo no nas Deen grooming his two
divisions with extreme care. The main
attack, beginning Monday, will be
launched by "Chick" Evans, Francis
Ouimet and Bobby Jones, with strong
reserves moving up in the persons of
Captain Fownes, Jess Guilford, Fred
Wright, Woodlo Piatt and Paul
Hunter.
Fownes isn't a boaster In any sense.
But he has great faith in the skill nnd
courage of his force, and ho is willing
to admit that wo havo the finest chanco
in history to start tho big international
season off with a brilliant triumph.
Boston leads with three representa
tives in Ouimet. Guilford nnd Wright.
Chicago, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia
and Atlanta have one each, while Paul
Hunter divides his allegianco between
Chicago nnd California. The Big Town
located on Manhattan Island, with all
of its 7,000,000 delegates to drawn on,
hasn't a member in the cast..
Brilliant Tournament
British galleries, that will range
from 10,000 to 15,000 a day, aro look
ing forward to the greatest international
golf championship that the game bos
ever known.
Heretofore it has always been Eng
land vs. Scotland in the main, with the
United States tossed ln one of the early
cantos.
Now it is Great Britain vs America,
and the insiders who have been watch
ing the play are not so sure thnt Tollcy,
Wethcred, Simpson. Iloldcrncss, Jenk
ins, Armour, Hope, Scott, etc., can
weather the storm.
With both wood and iron, most of
these forming the American team have
Philadelphia All-Scholastic Eight
to Meet New York Crew
in Henley
COACHED BY JOE WRIGHT
The recently organized crew of West
Philadelphia High School students and
called the All-Scholastic eight will row
in two races against a crew composed of
New York schoolboys on the l!Sth and
30th of this month. Tho first race will
be rowed in the American Henley on
the Schuylkill, nnd then the crews will
travel to Gotham, where they will be
pitted against each other on Memorial
Day.
Not so long ngo the Supervisory
Committee on Athletics in the Philadel
phia public high schools decided to dis
continue the water competition as a
high school sport. This was a severe
blow to the boys from across tho river,
ns they had just bought a new shell
nnd had banked on getting n champion
ship clghl together this year.
About this time there was a youngster
about fiye feet high roaming around the
institution with a Rolcmn fnr. Tin wi
red hair, and no one knew him by his'
iint. name, ivciiy wob all Ho ever was
called. Tho year before ho had been
tho coxswain of tho varsity, and when
tho crew was disbanded ho foun,! blm.
self out of a job. After walking about
tho school for some time with thla vpi-v
dissatisfied look nn expansive smile dec
orated ins countenance.
beveral members of last venr'a elirht
were assembled In n pornrr nf thn orinni
building when Kelly appeared upon the
scene. Ho told tbcm he plnnncd to put
together a crew that would not come
under tho school laws; that ho had
nlrcady arranged to use th0 Malta Uont
Club as Its headquarters. Ho also
planned to get Joe Wright, the fnmous
Penn tutor, to help him out, if possible,
in his spare momenta. When tho boys
heard this they fairly bubbled over with
enthusiasm.
The next day Bill Bicswanger, foot
ball star nnd former stroke; Snvder,
jjuiuiukui, uurnntm, Aicyuarle, Dea
con, Piatt and Wells, nil former oars
men nt West Phillle, reported to Kelly
on the river. ,
It didn't tnke Lew vcrv long to got
nil his plans working to perfection, nnd
.then he decided to arrange a race with
a crew from Gotham that was made up
of high school boys. Tho result was he
outdid himself and arranged two races
Joe Wright gladly lent his services
to the hoys as coach, and as a result
of his tutoring they expect to cop both
races from tho New Yorkers.

should mako good headway, and ont of
them in the easier side of the bracht '

frame. Thero is no medal play httt.
They ' plunge into an elgnteen-hoU
match-play test right off the bat and
then battle through two matches a dtr
until tho thirty-six-hole final. Tall
two-match-a-day test, at eighteen
holes each, is a much more harrotrlaj
affair than the dally thirty-six-hole test

fresh start. They are all three play

happen differently when weather coad
