When Winter Stove Leaguer meets
Winter Stove Leaguer there's always
lometlilng doing, and so it proved when
J. Wood Plntt. now deposed us city
champion, played George Hoflner,
champion In 1010, yesterday nfternoon.
One of 'em only bents the other over
busted sticks nnd the act was put on In
realistic fashion yesterday nt the scn
aatlonal finish. The two head officials
cf the W. S. L. came to the eighteenth
all square.
Thought It Was Over
Hoffner was straight off the tec, but
not so long, while l'lntt had a bummer
om the trees to the left. Hoffner's
iron was sliced and ohort aud It looked
about over when IMntt got off a Bcrcamer
which hit tho green bnnk.
But it kept on going and rolled up
under the hedge on the dirt, leaning
against tho turf, which was about tho
height of the top of the ball. It was
a mean shot and Piatt stroked his
blond locks n minute. Then he busted
his iron in tho center, took the busi
ness end and tried to get it out. It
was the only way, but there wasn't
any clearance. The ball spun around
and stayed up there on the grass above
the green.
His next Just managed to roll over
the top of the mound. Hoffner. mean
time, had clipped some twenty feet from
tte pin. Piatt trailed by n stroke, but
Hoffner inado it unanimous when he
holed that long put without the flicker
cf a cigar ash.
The crowd, In n perspiration over
both the match and the heat waves,
burst into Impnrtial applause for both
the young stars. Whenever they meet
there s bound to be a rucous and this
was no exception.
Started Well
..Pjatt started to walk away from
Hoffner at first and should have been
wall up but missed easy chances when
hla putter started going bad. He had
three putts on many greens, though
!t,,.1ier too AlAnt ''la rollers going
"'the latter part of tho match.
Hoflner made some gront recoveries nt
Je finish, a pretty chip on the four
teenth, a fine out from traps on the
mtecnth and sixteenth and that putt on
the eighteenth.

THE EVENING
PUBLIC LEDGER'
With Champion in Fighting Con
dition, Manager Kearns
Orders Less Work
TO REST ON HIS BIRTHDAY
Atlantic City, "N. ,1., June 124.
Champion Jack Dempsey ensod up on
his training routine yesterday doing no
boxing. Ho shortened his program be
cause he is on so fjne an edge that
hard boxing work In the brisk seashore
air might possibly send him stale. This
is the plain statement of both Jack
Kearns and Teddy Hnyes, his trainer.
Dempsey now weighs 10(1 pound".
"Jack is in perfect condition1, nnd
could fight Cnrpcnticr today or tomor
row as well as lie can on the 'Jd of
July," declared Hayes. "If he kept nt
work In the ring he would simply go
down in weight, perhaps, also strength,
and it is merely n mntter of training
wisdom to have him lay oft and rest."
The tentative training program for
the champion now includes a total rest
today, when Jack will celebrate his
twenty-sixth birthday with ii gathering
of friends nnd training companions at
his home in Airport.
Unless plans are changed. Dempsey
will go bnck to n stiff workout on Sat
urday and Sunday, including his exer
cises nnd sparring bouts with severui
heavies.
Asfdo from Jack Renault, Larry
Williams and two lightweights, Joe
llenjamln nnd Ilnbe Hermnn, there is
likelihood that tho chnmpioii mny have
troublo in securing renl opponents for
his ring work because of the tremendous
hammering he hns been indicting on
some of those who already have met
him.
It is reported here that Dcmpsey's
fierce attack has gone out through fight
ing circles and that n number of for
merly enthusiastic scrappers now in
tend to stny at home. The present sort
of layoff is to he resumed on Wednes
day or Thursday, according to Teddy
Hayes, who will probably keep the
champion idle from then on to get him
into exactly the proper condition for the
big fight. Jack probably will keep up his
morning road jaunts, but otherwise will
spend more of his rest time on his own
front porch or in his car with his dogs.
Jack Kearns reiterated yesterday his
stntement that he and Dempsey were
perfectly sntisficd to have J. Harry
Ertle, City Marshal of Jersey City, as
referee of the big bout. On his re
turn from meeting the New Jersey Box
ing Commission, which nnmed Ertle on
Stnte law authority, Kearns stated that
he had been given a chnnce to express
his choice of several names of New
Jersey men submitted by the commis
sioners, but snid he was willing to abide
by tho decision.
Dempsey today received congratula
tory telegrams from Georges Cnrpen
tler nnd Francois Desenmps on his
birthday. The champion was pleased
by their courtesy.

Sketches of Ring Battles
Of Dempsey and Carpentiet
During the journey across the con
tinent Dempsey was establishing a rec
ord which would have made the name
One-Uound" Dcmp-sey not Inappro
priate. The record book recites with
monotonous regularity his list of
KnocKouts: Homer Smith, one round;
Jim Flynn, one round ; Wll Hrcnnan,
six rounds; Hull Hadoe, one round;
Tom Itiley, one round; Dan Ketcher,
two rounds; Arthur l'elkey, one round;
Kid McCarthy, one round ; Hob Devore,
one round; Porky Pljnn, one round;
I'red Fulton, oue round; .Tuck Mornn,
one round ; Carl Morris, one round,
with others of more or less note meeting
the same fate.
It was in mid-summer, lillS, that
Fred Fulton, the Miuniotii plasterer,
six feet four and a half inches in height
and weighing 220 pounds, was selected
to stop this M'UMitlonnl drive of Demp
sey. The bout was hold In the open in
Jersey City July 27, t!)18, and proved
to be one of the shortest bouts on record,
Dempsey winning in twenty -set en sec
onds. Georges Cnrpcnticr, fighting from the
bantamweight ranks to meeting first
class iiiiddlewelglits, scored his first
great sensation ln 1012, when he won
the Europcnn middleweight champion
ship from Jim Sullivnn, nn KnglMi-
man, ln two rounds.
The bout was fought at Monte Carlo, i
English sportsmen, confident that their '
man would easily defeat the French-
man, journeyed by hundreds to timt
famous sporting resort to wnger thou
sands of pounds on bulllvan.
Witnesses of the bout declare thnt
Cnrpcnticr, with his clever footwork
and speed, was the winner from the
time the first blow wns struck. Feel
ing out his man in the first round, he
started with the gong of the second to
administer terrific punishment, which
the Englishman could not withstand
nnd took the count. The result made
Cnrpcnticr the most tnlkcd-of boxer lu
France.
In the same year Cnrpcnticr scored
twenty-round victories over George
Gunthcr and Willie Lewis, the Ameri
can middleweight, and also knocked out
Hubert Hoc, a Frenchman.
The victory over Willie Lewis force
full impressed the worth of the French
boxer lit the minds of ring experts both
ln Europe nnd America.

ON HIS TOES
Referee Got Dizzy in
Counting So Often Over
Jess Against Dempsey
Jack Dempsey
nlaycd
the
accom-
paniment to Joss AVIllard's swnn
song
on July 4. 1010, nt Toledo, O. It was
nil over in the third round. Jess got
5100,000 for the performance, many
times the amount Curuso earns in n
whole opera. Dempsey got .527,000.
The champion fell down nnd got up
so many times ln tho first round thnt
tiie referee became dizzy from count
ing, nnd failed to hear the bell. This
was on the fifth liaison between Willnrd
and the floor.
The gorq; sounded feebly on the
seventh count, but Referee Pecord con
tinued chopping the air over Willard.
When he bad finished he informed
i IJempsey thnt there hud been i knock
i out nnd the champion left the ring,
only to have his manager come run
ning after him with the information
that there hnd been n mistake.
' That first round wits awful. Hut
i it prepared everybody for the worst,
and no one was surprised when Wil
lard lost In tho third round.
Dempsey opened the light by ac
cepting some taps on tho face. Then
he hauled off and busted Willnrd ln
the stomach so hard that a dazed ex
pression overspread tho champion's
countennnce. Dempsey then landed
several blows to the jaw and Willnrd
dropped to the floor for six count
nly to fall ngain with a blow that
K' nis nose
As he EOt 1111 n SPOnnd tlmn he tumor)
Ills head away, but the Glnnt Killer
struck him twice nnd lie fell on his
hands and knees.
1 Arising once more, Willnrd was
cornered by Dempsey, who pounded
him to tho mat with rights and lofts
to the face. Again lie got up and once
more he wns knocked down.
Somehow, the giant groped his way
through tho second round, suffering
i nothing more humilinting thun u fall
) partly through the ropes. Deiupso
tore into him again when the third
i round opened. Willard wns groccv
and weak, with one eje out of shape
nnd everything gone wrong. Ills sec
onds threw the towel into the ring and
called It u day.

ANOTHERNET TITLE
Adds to Philadelphia's Triumphs
by Taking Delaware Doublo
Crown With Mrs. Whitoman
MISS THAYER TAKES FINALS
ny SPICK HALL
Wilmington. Del.. June 24. The
long list of lawn tennis titles held by
Phlladelphlans Is Increasing as the sea
son ndvnnccs. There has not been n
tournament in this vicinity in n long
while thnt some one of home talent did
not carry nt least one slice of tho bacon
home. Wallnce Johnuson nnd Stanley
Pearson won all the honors In the Phil
adelphia tournnniont at Cynwyd. then
Johnson nnd Carl Fischer captured the
Pennsylvania titles at Merlon. Miss
Anne Town-end and Miss Phyllis Wnlsh
between them took nil tho crowns thnt I
w-cre oiiered in the women's Pennsylva
nia and Eastern States tournnmont.
while Miss Molly Thnycr nnd her brother
won the mixed doubles.
jw Miss Walsh bus added one more
io i-niiiiiieipiiio's winning list. Yester
day, paired wltli Mr V.. 1 Wlilfetniin
Nowlnnd Park, she nnnexed the Deln
ware doubles, beating Mrs. Marion Zin
dersteln Jo.ssup and Mrs. F. II. Oodfrov
in the final rnllnil )u n fnst bntti0( 2.0i
n-u. ri.. The winners last year were
miS" :..,ss,, n,,l Miss Edith Sigourney.
.miss Siconrney was unable to be present
i.i i '"' because sl'o ls in Kurope
with the Americans playing in the Brit
ish tournaments nnd French tourna
ments. The semi-finals in the men's singles
wore a decided disappointment as fnr
as contests were eoneerned, but were
very encouraging to Phllndolphians be
cause of tho brilliant form displayed by
niiiii-e .lonnson nntl Minnicy t'cnrson.
Johnson mot Philip Neer. the Lelandj
htnnford boy, who wns hailed as a pos
sible winner of the Delaware tourna
ment. Johnson evidently believed that
Ncor would nt leost mnke him extend
himself, so ho begnn right off the reel
to snood his tilnv nn. The roHiilt wn
that he tore through the Californian's i
defense mercilessly, tnkins the first set
0-1 and the second at 0-0.
Pearson Going Well
Stanley Ponrson nlsn rlomnnntrntnrl
that ho has hit his stride at last, for
he completely crushed Wallace Hates,
the tali, blond California player, in '
two love sets that were finished in '
short order. Lnst week Pearson met
Johnson in the finals of the Pennsyl
