ZJntess Frenchman's Right Can Tap Champion's Jaw
Early in Fight His Chances of Grabbing Title
, Are Not So Good
' ny ROnEItT W. MAXWELX,
Sports Editor Evening Tublto ldtfr
Atlantic City, July 1.
WITHIN the next twenty-four hours another brief paragraph Is going to be
added to the classic history of flntiann. Both Jacques Dempsey and Georges
Carpentier arc nil set and the curtain Is nbout to bo rung up on the greatest
international fistic drama slnco Charllo Mitchell, of England, was hovering In
the offlng when John L-. Sullivan and Jim Corbctt were the main frigates
of war.
Now that everything Is set there Is no use In passing nny more blarney
bout what is what. Dempsey appears to be a better mnn than Georges
Carpentier ever was or ever will be. There are a lot of elements which hand
tha Champion this cnll to supremacy.
In tho first place Dempsey is a murderous puncher. He packs a wallop
probably half again as hard as Carpcntier's and he has It in both hands.
Carpentier has a deadly right hand, straight cross nunch that he has developed
to an exact science It brought down Beckett, it l.iought down Lcvlnsky nnd
It knocked Bombardier Wells goggle -eyed.
Measured against that Dempsey has a right which Is capable t! knocking
Carpentlcr's head loose from his shoulders. As for tho left, Carpentier has a
fine straight left as straight lefts go, but Dempse can hit harder with his left
than he can with his right. lie broke AVillard's cheek bone with that left, and
It is doubtful If Jeffries, in his palmiest days, could have inflicted a harder
wallop.
But there are other factors. A lot has been said about the advantage
that Carpcntier's superior speed and brains will give him. Granting all that
hat been written on these things, it must not bo forgotten that Dempsey, in
action, is n lashing whirlwind of fists, nnd that nny bralnB he may lack arc
made up for b marvelous fighting instinct. In other words, Dempsey always
seems to do the right thing at the tight tinio without having to stop to think
about it. His body rencts without conscious direction. He has fighting
Instinct down to tho ultimate degree.
Added to this there is that old difference In weight and n degree of
ruggedness favoring Dempsey which Carpentier docs not even approach. In
plain brute strength there is absolutely no comparison ; it Is nil Dempsey.
In other woids, Dempsey is a true, natural fighting man, while the
challenger is a scientifically made one.
Now to get down to what may happen tomorrow.
It must bo remembered that Carpentier has a knockout punch In his right.
Ho can knock Dempsey out if he lands.
Dempsey Is not in as good condition today ns ho was when ho met
Willard. A slight edge of tho old speed is missing nnd he is slightly over
weight, but in excellent condition nevertheless.
Carpentier undoubtedly can hit Dempsey, nnd will unless Jack's first
pnnch knocks him out.
1 But all Carpcntier's chances of victory seem to be centered on one
campaign. It Is inconceivable to think that tho fight will go twelve rounds
..with the Frenchman's sheer boxing ability enabling him to stay.
To win Carpentier must get Dempsey in the first two rounds. Dempsey
will leave openings, and the Frenchman will have to pick one of them
early in the fight nnd slip across the straight right which he delivers with
a leap like a jaekrabbit.
If he fails in this he is done. If that right misses, Dempsey will tear
his body apart, nnd if the bout goes over two rounds everything points to
Dcmpsoy crushing him down with those terrific punches to tho Btomach and
heart, followed bj that famous left hook to the head.
1'SAT sums up all the artrance dope. There is a chance that it all
may he knocked into a cocked hat. The bout matt no Ucelve rounds
without cither being floored. But Dcmpsoy should win by a knockout,
and there arc about three chances that he will to one that he won't.
Champion Loafs Away Last Day at Shore
DEMPSEY loafed away his last day at his training camp at the Airport
yesterday. Before the sun sets this afternoon Jack will have left the
seashore for the scene of the battle, and ha will spend the night before the
contest in the defense of his crown against Carpentier, the Invader, some
where in Jersey City. No one knows the time of Dempsey's departure from
here and no one knows where Jack will be tonight In Jersey City. In fact.
America's representative In the International contest doesn't know himself
the" location of the private residence where he will stay. Jack Reams is
guarding that secret.
Yesterday afternoon was Dempsey's last on the porch of the White
House where he has made his home during ten weeks of strict training.
Surrounded by his handlers, sparring partners et al., a merry time was
had by nil, although Dempsey showed some signs of being very serious. Once
he forgot himself and took a strangle hold on Joe Benjamin, one of his
sparring partners, when the California lightweight attempted to show his
ability ns a Mngor, but it was all in fun. Benjamin had to cry "Uncle"
before Dempsey let go his grip.
TiESIDES the alleged singing there also was a general flow of eon
D venation on almost every subject but boxing.
Dempsey Takes Shot at "Experts"
A BAIN-SOAKED messenger boy, while delivering a yellow, sealed envelope,
gave Dempsey the inspiration to take n sock at soveral newspaper men
who were included in tho porch party. "What round are you going to put
hlra awny. Jack?" aked the boy. "Walt for forty-eight hours more," was
f the champion's come-back, "then I'll be an expert on the fight myself. See
these guys here they all think they aro experts. Ask them."
Hundreds of telegrams arrived during the day, which was n busy one for
all attaches of the enmp. while Dempsey was lolling around, keeping In out
of the rnln. Trunks nnd traveling bags were packed for the departure today.
The first ones to leave camp for Jersey City were Dempsey's three Belgian
y police dogs. These animals have been with Jack throughout his entire training
j"V,utay at tho Airport. Jack's brother, Bernard, was custodian of the dogs on
U their trip from Atlantic City, it being made by motor in the champion's
ii limousine.
M ...
nEQIXXIXO with 9 o'clock, the Reading station here this morning
D began to fill tcith sunburnt people who were anxious to get a final
glimpse of Dempsey leaving the city. None of them lcneto the time
of leaving, nor did they seem to care. They wanted to be sure, how
ever, that they would be among those there to sec Jack off.

hearing for days that no trades would
he made but that the Phils were on
the market for nny good bnscbnll plnycr
the swap was made that confirms the
many rumors that traveled nround
baseball circles since nnd during the
ilslt of the Xcw York Giants to this
tlty recently. This morning It was an
nounced that Casey Stengel, star outer
gardner, and Johnny Hawlings, regular
second baseman, hnd been traded to
MoGraw's club for Lee King, utilitj
outfielder; Goldlo Rapp, alternate third
baseman, and Lenz Itichburg, an un
known recruit.
Hawlings has been playing a hangup
gamo at the keystone sack for Donovan
nnd his mates and was expected to re
main with tho team ns a regular. TIio
peppery little second sackcr who enmc
ftom the Braves to the locals last ear
according to the official batting averages
of Inst week was batting at a .-S."
average for fifty-four games. Casey
Stengel hns nppenred In but twenty
two gnmes this season, most of the time
us a pinch hitter. His average, accord
ing to the list of last week, was .321.
Stengel has had a long career In tho ma
jors, starting with Brookljn, where ho
remained for mauy years, moving in a
trudp to Pittsburgh, where he did not
play, and then to this city. Ho has
been suffering from n bad arm this year
and has seen little active duty.
Of the thrco new men to wear the
uniform of the Phillies nothing is known
about Itichburg. He doesn't even ap
pear In tho batting averages nnd evi
dently is one of the recruits McGraw
bos had on the bench all year. Ho went
South with the team from Gotham on
the training trip, but never played as
a regular since his return.
Ilapp Minor League Star
Goldie Itapp will bo remembered ai
tho high-priced minor leaguo star pur
chased by McGraw previous to the
training ncason last year. Ho was
started at the hot corner when the
Giants returned from tho South. Frlsch
being moved over to second baso to
mako room for him. Ho played bril
liantly In the field and hit well nt tho
start, but of lata has not been using his
willow with much effectiveness, nnd as
a result has been alternating with Pnt
tcrson at tho hot corner. In fifty-two
games Rapp hit for a .2121 overage.
Leo King was with the Giants last
yerr, being used occasionally in center
field. He came orlglnnlly from Pitts
burgh. In thlrty-thrco games ho has
the beautiful nverage of .100. In the
recent series between the Giants and
the Phils King entered n game in the
sixth inning and managed to share one
single out of three trips to the platter.
u snnrcu two uies in the outlielcl.
Rapp will In all probabilitj bo seen
nt third baie this afternoon, with Jimmv
Smith, late of tho Reds, on second.
King enn hardly expect to dislodge any
of the Philly outfielders at present, for
tho trio of Mcusel, Williams and Le
bourveau Is hitting nnd fielding in great
shape.
Pirates Increase Lead
While tho Giants were idle yester
day, unablo to make hay because the
sun was not shining in Boston, the
Pirates added two victories to their
percentage table. The two victories
widen tho breach between Gibson's
men nnd tho Giants to five full games,
fi nice working margin, though not n
big one, with so mnny doubic-hcadcrs
on me nooks. The first win was scored
in one of those protested nffnirs where
n runner is on baso in such and Buch
an inning and so on. Ycstcrdny it
stnrted in the last half of -the eighth
with tho score tied nnd Cutshnw on
third with Senor Lurjue on the mound
for the Reds. The Pirates fnilcd to
count another run in this frumo, but
whaled the Cuban for sufficient hits to
capture the game in the ninth.
In the second fracas Yellow nore,
the Indian, twirled his best game, de
feating the Reds D to 3 Luquo was the
victim in this game also. Tho Injun
permitted but eight hits.

night an untroubled sleen will be of no
light aid. for tomorrow's jubilee. It
would bo Interesting. If not (mnortant.
to know just what fitful dreams their
sleep will hold.
For here are two men of ordinary
mold, outside of one accomplishment,
who for months have known more
printed space than the Presidents, Kings
nnd Premiers of a' dozen nntions than
wars nnd rumors of wars than all the
foreign relations of a badlv tangled
world.
They have been thrust Into tho most
flaming spotlight any two mortals from
the game havo over known before and
even if their imagination is limited,
they must feel the psychological reac
tion that comes from havlni; nt least
200,000,000 minds nnd 400,000,000
eyes plastered upon their beings,
Tho High Mark
THERE have been many ring contests
before that gave promise of a greater,
better balanced struggle.
Rut from tho viewpoint of world-
uldo interest this one is the high mark
of all time for reasons that have been
enumerated too often to be rencated
here.
Tho mere fact that this contest will
draw at the gate in old-fashioned knlo
of the realm more money than any
three contests of the past havo ever
known is merely one of the indications
of Us attracting qunlltles.
The great white spotlight has been
beating upon them almost without n
break ever since Dempsey stopped Wil
lard at Toledo nnd Carpentier dropped
Beckett in London.
Ench beat down a bigger, stronger
mnn through the speed and nowcr of
one well-directed punch, and from those
two dntcs became incvltablo opponents
for the richest prize sport has ever
offered to nn individual between the
days of Kameses and Huth,
All Set
OW It is all over but the first rush
and tho winning nunch. There
isn't a new word in the dictionary left
for descriptive purposes.
Thoy havo come over tho lone mnreh
to the front-line trench with Zero Hour
set for the jump-off.,
carpentier is tno loriorn nope, but
It is Dcmiiscy who has most to lose
and least to gain.
If Dempsey wins he has merely held
hlo qwn ns 'champion of the world.
Carpentier has only to mako a good
showing to retain his laurels. If he
loses in n gallant fight, his admirers
will promptly point to the big differ
ences in weight and strength. If he
wins, ho moves to n height Demnscy
as champion could never know.
Tho ircuchmnn is making a light
gnmble for n great prize. For nine
men out of every ten figure him beaten
in ndvance by the odds of weight
strength nnd power that nre tossed in
ngainst him.
Dempsey before has nearly always
known the thrill of beating down
heavier, bigger men.
There is less thrill to be enjoyed in
N
THE fight would be but an ordlntq
affair if Carpentier was an Amerli
can. It h tho appearance of a Euro,
pean challenger of merit for tho firrf
time In many generations that hi
stirred up the commonwealth. And oni '
queer turn is that for tho first time In
ring history the American will not bj -the
popular favorite throughout th
country at largo. This, (bo, may havi ,
Its effect. All tho physical advantage!
of the day are with Dcmpsoy. But thi
psychology of affairs Is all with hit
opponent, who, with much to gain, hit
not one-fifth as much to lose. In fact,
even though beaten he will bo a grcatct
hero than ever If he can carry tho conn
bat to eight or ten rounds beforo giving '.'
way to superior power. ,
