JVo News of Sensational Happenings Is Coming From
p Respective Camps of Dcmpsey and Carpentier Per-
taining to Their Preparations for Battle July 2
By nOBKUT W. MAXWELL
Jf SporU Kdllor Ktrnins Tulille I-edcer
TWO week from next Haturday Georges Carpentier nml .Incquen Dcmpsey
will settle their little nfffllr In the ring In Jerxcy City, anil after it Is all
orer Or-orgcs Tex Itichard will Kettle with M. Carpentier nml M. Dempsey.
eTIiUB far the final pettlement seems to be the most important feature of the
ifreat International boxing contest for the championship of the world.
As the days roll by nnd the gladiators put on their training stunts the
Mear old public 1 getting nil steamed tip and wondering how n pair of ngtle
'allilctcs can keep from lljing at ench other's throat before the big day arrives.
Oeorgcs Is doing great work at Manhnssct, I.. I.,. nnd Jacques is doing the
'tame at Atlantic City, N. .1. They have trnined enough for a down fights,
but it doesn't icem enough.
Nothing nensntloual has been pulled ns yet. and this not only Is strange,
btit also unusual. First Dempsey stepped into the picture when be knocked
a few sparring partners cookoo nnd had to get om new ones to .work on.
Much space was deroted to the punching powers of the champion some
thing everybody was hep to. Jacques can sock with cither limit nnd from nny
angle, but everybody wanted to rend about It ngnin.
Carpentier trnined privately. The lowbrowed writers were nllowcd to
crash the gate three times a week to tec the French marvel go through the
motiona of a boxrr In training. His work was not startling, but the afore
Vaid L. B. writers were told confidential that Cleorgcs did all of his heavy
work in the mornings nnd the semi-public workouts were wlint the upper
c.IMt refer to as hokum. Frnhnswah Descnmps. the manager, is mysterious
at all times and, although he talks considerably, he sns uothlng. Therefore,
one gets a lot of dope from Mnnhasset. I,. I.
All we know is that Carpentier is getting into condition for the crucial
battle of his career In his own original way. He Is working behind the scenes,
und when he docs wonderful work nobody is there to see him. His agile
sparring partners, Joe Jeanctte and Sam McVcy, to say nothing of l'nul
Journce and Itallon Joe Clans, declnrc he Is the fnstest boxer they ever saw,
fcut those guys would say the same If they were working with Willie Median.
STRAXOE thing, this thick, heavy, impenetrable trail of privacy
which hat been smeared over Carpentier' t icorkoutt. In private
ho it great. In public he does not look to good, All of ichich leads
the publio to believe that Qeorget hat something up his tlccvc. Hut
they don't iccar tlccvct in the ring.
Both Men Will Box Their Best
NOW all of this stuff probably is on the up-nnd-up and according to Hoyle.
Wc are not saying It luu't. nor are we attempting to cast any suspicion
on the affair. Far be It from that. Dempsey will do his best and so will
Carpentier, and nothing could be fairer than thnt.
, Just tlic same , wc cannot help but recall the methods uted by Jes Willard
nen he trained for Dempsey at Toledo. Nobody ever saw him do nny road
Jwork, but it wnt whispered about that he was out every moriiluc. using un
V frequented roads, nnd was in wonderful shape. Also thnt his daily workouts
at the Cisino were mere matters of form to collect the dough from the
cuiious spectators.
Afterward it was learned that Willard did a lot of road work In the moni
tors nnd used up two sets of automobile tires while doing It,
Jess also had the same kind of sparring partners ns Carpentier. Accord
ing to reports from the camp of the Frenchman, the boxers are wnrned to be
'careful ami not hit too hard. They also must keep their elbows down to
'prevent Georges from hurting his hnuds. Perhaps that Is a good training
.stunt, but Dempsey doesn't do thnt. Instead, he tells his opponents to do
'the best they can and It will be every man for himself.
i Willard hot1 Walter Monnhan nnd n couple of others in his camp who
traveled with him a couple of years and boxed with him tlnily. They were used
in the sparring exhibitions and they put up n good performance. Jess looked
jfttoa against those guys, becautc It was part of the act. He would not mix
rith utrangers. One day Battling I.evlnsky wanted to work out with him,
3ul Willard refused. He did not wnnt to take any chances.
ti Carpentier has his own private boxing partners nnd they seem to be good
jjnnnih. Thsy arc slow, clumsy nnd cumbersome nnd easy to get along with.
ucorges takes no chances and can show his wonderful speed In every bout.
Slv also has no difficulty in hitting them when he wants to, thus showing to
the L. B. writers nnd specially Invited guests thnt he, too, has a wallop,
Johnny Burns, the Kensington flstle Impresario, has seen Carpentier In
action, and boldly predicts an easy victory for Dempsey. "I saw Carpentier
lose to Joe Jeanctte in Paris In 10M. nnd win on a foul from Gunboat Smith.
Georges was groggy and ready for the long voyage when he claimed a foul In
the sixth nnd got away with it. I don't think he was fouled. I also was
present when he knocked out Bombardier Wells with one punch, but that
fight meant nothing.
"f nOX'T think Carpentier it in Dcmpscy's clam and I don't tee
how the fight can last more than three rounds."
The "Breaks" Broke Moore
WHEN the Browns galloped away with the big edge of the scries against
our A's yesterday by winning n lfMo-0 verdict In the tenth inning It
was ull due to what happened In the eighth inning.
Up to that time the Mnekian lend was a fl-to-4 one. The nine counters
were mostly due to a quartet of home runs the boys poled out. There was
something funny olAnit the way thoso home runs came nnd the big honors of
top day went to Jimmy Dykes, who collected a pair of them.
In the third Inning he slammed one over the right field wall, nnd "Tillie"
Walker followed by busting one Into the bleachers. Then, in the sixth, Djkes
again connected with one nnd it landed in the bleachers, proving thereby that
the big Uainblno of the Yanks has a contemporary In local parts, However,
the funny part of It is that this time it was Boy Moore who followed Dykes
with the circuit bust.
Now, to get back to the brenk that cost the game. A mentioned before,
the Macks wore leading by !) to 4 when the eighth 'ossion rolled around.
Williams drew his third base on balls and Hevereld singled. Still nil was
, pnccful nnd tranquil. Then Kllerbe soaked one on the nose. Witt ran back
to the fence nnd leaped for it with his gloved hand. Und Witt been n little
taller he might have snared it. However, It hit the fence, while Witt crum
pled in a heap.
!. ii'en k nVnS F?cn that thc workfi Iln'1 beon dimmed. Had Dykes plaved
the Hit as all jood second basemen nre supposed to plnv such hits things
might Still have been in fairly good shape. But Jimmy didn't, and the ball
rolled merrily around In right until Djkes awoke nnd chased It. Bv that
timu Klltrbe was rounding third nnd kept right on home while Dykes threw
ytt lcrvlnt.
'THAT seemed to finish Moore so far as effectiveness iras concerned,
t ,'n ' ., V,0Uptc ?f d.ruhlf 1o "P"1 "" '"'" was sufficient for him.
Rome Baylor took his place and Rolllc didn't have sufficient to stem

By LOUIS H. JAFFE
The Phillies' boll park will bo thc
scene of a series of frcsh-ulr bouts
this summer. After several attempts to
get the grounds at Broad street and
I.ehlgh nvenuc for pugilistic purposes
Promotcis Herman Taylor anil Boliert
II. Gunuis finally succeeded. They

tween Joe Tiplltz. of Philadelphia, and
Gcorgic Chaney, of Baltimore. This
bout was clinched after n lot of dick
ering. It will be remembered thnt Tiplits'.
knocked out Chancy In a round at Shlbe

up just when It looked as if the bout

their Intentions of staging oncn-nlr
bouts nt the big league ball parks, but
one by one tliev gradually dropped out.
With the officlul announcement of
Tnylor nnd Gunnis for their opening
show June 120 it now is n certnlnty that

scries of star fresh-air bouts during
the summer season, ns In other years.

McCrne decided to start a professional
page in his clouting career. Although
he has had only eleven bouts since start

Brooklyn man's opponents hnve been

Willie Crystal, Knockout Billy Angelo,
Allle Nnck nnd Bed Cap Alison.
"There nro only two boxers whom I nm
barring just now," said Hoff. taking thc

have Mac's game."

Bambino Sixteen Days Ahead of
Record Traveling at Rate of

JIMMY DYKES A SLUGGER
Babe Ruth selected the first appear
nnco of Tyrus Cobb ns manager of the
Detroit Tigers In New York to shatter
his record for home runs on consecutive
dnyn.
Ittith'H two home runs yesterdny
placed him idsstccn dayn ahead of his
lecord last year. They also marked, so
far as Is recorded, the only occasion
on which the stnr has hit two home
runs each In games on successive days.
They also established tho record of
seven home runs In five days.
Ruth Is speeding nt the rate of sixty
fivo nnd one-half home runs n acason.
There nre. however, several home-run
records left for him to break. Like
nil other American League players, he
has not been nble to make more thnn
two circuit hits a game, while the Na
tional League record is four, made by
It. Ij. Lowe, Boston, In 1804. and
cnunlcd by 13. Dclnhanty, Philadelphia,
In lfiilO.
With the heavy hitting of the present
day Huth might yet perform thc feat of
batting two In one Inning, which wns
done by Lowe in 1804 nnd by C. Jones,
Boston, in 1SS0. Another high mark
Is fivo homo runs In two games, set by
A. C. Anson. Chlcngo, in 1881.
Ruth's two-n-dny performance wns
equaled yesterday by Cruise, of thc
Boston Nationals, and Dykes, of the
Athletics.
In making four wild pitches yester
day Ring, of the I'liilndelphin Nation
als, fell one short of equaling the rec
ord, held jointly by Cheney, formerly of
the Brooklyn Nationals, who threw five
in 1M8, nnd J. Ilngcn, of the Philadel
phia team of 188,'!.
Thc major league mark of accepting
only one chnnce nt first base was
equaled by Grimm, of Pittsburgh. The
Plruto player ulio made an error.
