CONTRARY to a number of opinions
the entire sporting whirl isn't
going to cease abruptly after Mesiri.
Dempsey and Carpentier have exhibited
their wares in .Terser City and have de
parted with $300,000, with all taxes
deducted at the window.
We will then have n ehnnee to focus
our blase attention upon such sedate
sports as baseball, tennis, gnlf, racing
and what not with a clearer vllon no
longer obscured by a wall of gold.
Quite a number of folks will emerge
from their trance to find that Cleveland
and New York In the American league
and that Pittsburgh and New York in
the National League rre having quite a
time of It in off nwinits and that Babe
Ruth still persist. In prodding a base
bal out of the park at certain stated
Intervals.
All this Dempsey-Carpcnticr chatter
has been extremely annoying to the
Babe, who for over n year has been
accustomed to standing ns Number One
on the program. Once in a while a
horse known as Man o' War horned
In on M.n last summer, but only In
pots.
To have the curtain rung down on
him for a six weeks' stretch when he
was In his most prodigious mood has
been quite another matter. Quite.
The Loser's Future
IT IS just as well to shed no sad tears
over the wretched fate of the loser
in today's spicy joust.
If It Is to be Carpentier, he will take
away, net, something over $100,000.
He will still be the champion of Europe,
with all the engagements he cares to
fill. He will still be light heavyweight
champion of the light heavyweight uni
verse, with an endless line of promoters
seeking his signature to certain papers,
calling for worthy stipends.
If Dempsey, by some whim of fate,
Is the party hooked, he will find nt the
age of twenty-six more openings thnn
ever from n number of parties who up
to date have been a trifle coy.
Tom Gibbons Is waiting to meet the
winner. But he might be sent out
ngainst the lover in n testing jubilee.
There probably will he no $T00,000
purses for n week or two But one
can still exlvt, for a ear at least, on
half this amount.
In the menn while a flock of golf
enthusiasts are looking forward to the
return of .lock Hutchison and Tommy
Kerrigan, who wrecked tradition by
leading Great Britain's greatest pro
fesslonnl in the recent Open Cham
pionship. They ore now headed for
their home shores, where quite a time
will await them for an achievement that
deserves all the laurel we have saved
up. No two men from one nation ever
did this before and so their early arrival
will add considerable to the gaycty ot
at least one nation.
The alibi in the drift of most big
fights has been "over-trained" or
"over-confident" or "lucky punch.
We trust that the lover in n contest
of this Imposing caliber will be thought
ful enough to dig up a new one and
so carry out the sensational nspect of
affairs to absolutely the last notch.

Once Office Boy, Carpentier Be
comes Idol of France Has
1 Great War Record
Oeorges Carpentier ts n fighter In
rrery sense of the word. He has been
described ns the most picturesque and
the most colorful man known to pugi
lism. To the sportsmen of his native
France he is their "Man of, Destiny."
All the superlatives and more are ap
propriate In referring to the man who
will strive for the world's heavyweight
title on Saturday. He has earned the
highest honors of the ring In Europe,
where he is idolized as a boxer and a
gentleman. He is the possessor of an
enviable war record and has been
decorated with the Croix dc Guerre and
the Medaille Mllltare. He is the in
spiration of Ids devoted admirers abroad
nnd n brilliant example of the highest
Ideals In manhood.
Carpentier Is not an ordinary fighter.
His appearance discourages associating
him with the accepted theory of the
ring and his personality adds to this.
He is as different from the recognized
tnnflol nf flnf .atahrltv na Hnr u from
who dark. This, together with his ring ex-
.troubj ploits nbroad. is responsible for the
world-wide reputation he enjoys.
CorpcntierV greatest recommenda
tion is the wonderful war record which
recently was substantiated by investi
gation. He spent eighteen months at
the front Hying n two-seater observa
tion airplane. He enlisted ns n chauf
feur at the outbreak of the uor and
received n license as an air pilot In
May. 1015. He remained three months
with n squadron at the front, nnd was
then nsslgncd to general reserve avia
tion as a spare pilot. On August 2S,
1015. lie suffered a leg injury, but re
covered speedily, and was sent to the
front for reconnaissance work in prep
aration for the Champagne offense,
i which began September 12.r, HUB. He
J received the Croix de Guerre on the day
the offensive began, nnd on November ,i,
1010, received the Medaille Mllitalre
for heroic action under fire.

in his ring career, compiling n compre
hensive record and improving nnd
taking on weight steadily. He now
enjoys the distinction of hnvlng held
every ring title of France from ban
tamweight to heavyweight.
Carpentier met his first American
opponent In 1011. Frank I.oughrey, of
Philadelphia, carried the French boxer
through fifteen rounds, Carpentier re
ceiving the decision. Later that year
he won a twenty -round decision over
Hnrry Lewis and was knocked out in
five rounds by Dixie Kid.
The following year he knocked out
Jim Sullivan in two rounds at Monte
Carlo for the middleweight champion
ship of Europe. He experienced re
verses against Billy I'apke nnd Frank
Klaus that same year, being knocked
out by I'npke in seventeen rounds and
losing to KInus on a foul committed by
the resourceful Descnmps In the nine
teenth round of a bout at Dieppe. Pre
vious to these engagements Carpentier
had gnined u twenty-round decision
over Willie Lewis.
Cnrpentler's outstanding bouts In
lOl.'l were his two meetings with Bom
bardier Wells, British heavyweight
champion. The French boxer won the
first bout in the fourth round, after re
covering from n knockdown in the first
round, nnd in the second bout knocked
out Wells in the first round. Cyclone
Smith, Bnndsmnn Hice nnd George
(iunther were other English heavies to
fall before Carpentier thnt year.
The following year Carpentier lost
the decision to .loo Jeannete In a fifteen
round bout at Paris, but his perform
ance In this encounter attracted par
ticular attention to the Frenchman.
Twice he floored .lennnette for counts
, of nine, hut in the end he had to bow to
tile superior experienre in ine rruit
.lennnette. Carpentier won on a foul
from Gunboat Smith In the sixth round
of a bout in London before discarding
his gloves for wnr service.
In the interim to 1010 Carpentier en
gaged in exhibitions behind the lines,
but experienced no actual ring battles.

HAS GREAT PHYSIQUE
Jack Dempsey has hnd n varied
career In his twenty-six years. As has
been true of most ring chnmplons, the
world's heavyweight tltleholdcr has ad
vanced from obscurity to International
fame In remnrknbly short time.
Dempsey rose from the career of n
nondescript to the world's heavyweight
title and its nccompnnying distinction
nnd riches In the space of four years
of actual fighting. He really advanced
to the ring's grentest honor In the short
space of two years, for nil his serious
ring engagements occurred between
11117 nnd Independence Day of 1010,
when, at the age of 24, he battered
Jess Wlllnrd helpless in their memor
able battle nt Toledo,
Dempsey embodies the qualities of
three lighting nationalities. He claims
the strain of Irish, Scotch and Indian
blood in his veins, and the fighting
qualities of these three races have been
generously bred In hls'bone and blood,
contributing to the rcmnrkable piece of
fighting machinery he now typifies. He
hns led a rugged, though careful, life
In the open for the most part, a con-
dltlon which hns assisted materially In
molding his remnrkable physique.
The champion's real name is William
Harrison Dempsey. He was born June
24, 1805. nt Mannssa, Col. He is the
sixth child In a fnmlly of eight. Three
of his brothers nnd three sisters are
alive. The youngest child of the
family, who was named Bruce, died
about two years ago. When Dempsey
was but seven years old his parents,
Hirnm and Cclia Dempsey, moved with
their children from Mannssa to Mont
rose, Col. Here the family lived for
nine yenrs, nnd then traveled to Salt
Lake City, I'tah. which the champion
nnd the rest of the household claim
ns their home town.
Takes Nnmo of "Jack"
The prefix "Jnek" was assumed by
the champion when he attained his
mnjorltv and turned to the ring fpr i
livelihood. He adopted the name of the
tiv Hll Tn1s rnmtlNPV. Of
Brooklyn, on the theory that by as
suming the former miiiiiicwviRiii '"
nlnn' nnmn Mime of the clamotll' anil
distinction of the famous old fighter
would revert to him.
Most of bis early life Dempsey spent
in the open, working ns n farm hand.

He unneared In bouts in the East

In the following year, however, Demp

out At Norton and Charley Miller, each
in one round, and added victories over
Willie Meehan. Carl Morris, Bob McAl

bouts in California. Ho buffered n one

Manhassct. N. Y., July 2. "I've
hod a good sleep nnd feel fine."
This wns (ieorges Cnrpentler's smil
ing comment ns he came out of the
house at 7:4fi o'clock this morning.
He arose nt fl:.t0, indulged in fifteen
minutes of setting-up exercises, "to
open his eyes," as his trainer expressed
it. nnd then ate a light breakfast nt 7
o'clock.
He lounged around the house until
7:45 when, attired In nn old Annuel
shirt, old gray trousers, cap, checkered
socks and worn shoes, he emerged for
a little light rond work.
Surprised to find newspapermen
waiting for him at the gate, with a
brond smile on his face, he remarked :
"You're up early; haven't you been
to bed all night?"
Accompanied by his trnlncr, Gus
Wilson : his friend. Pierre Mnllettc,
and his Pelginn police dog, Felipe, Car
pentier stnrted for a short hike along
the roads near his camp. He seemed to
possess the naturnl abandon of a school
boy on n picnic. He had gone but n
few steps when lie pulled up his trousers
nnd executed n jig for the edification of
his companions nnd the two newspaper
men who trailed him.
"Doesn't seem worried, does he?"
remnrked Wilson,
Cnrpentier kent up n constant steam
of banter nnd light conversation with
his friends, mnking no reference, how
ever, to the fight.
Manager Descnmps hnd mapped out
the day to coincide with the training
schedule the challenger hns followed for
six weeks. Luncheon wns served nt
11 :Ii() o'clock; then the motors took the
party to Port Wnshlngton. on Mnnhas
set liny, where they boarded the sixty-five-foot
power yacht Lone Star.
One of the bunks wns fitted up for
(Ieorges, and he slept an hour while the
little craft sped down the sound to a
.lersey City dock. There a closed car
nnd a special guard of six motorcycle
policemen nwaited the party.
Strict orders were given by Mnnngcr
Descnmps to keep everybody out of
the chnllenger's dressing room until he
starts for the ring. He said (Ieorges
w opld le ready when the time for th"
mnin event arrived.
Manager Descnmps, Trainer Wilson
nnd little Charles Ledoux, the French
bantamweight champion, will be in
fieorgos' corner and will work in the
ring with him between rounds. Pnul
Joiirncp, the French hen vj weight, will
be the fourth nan behind the challenger
but will not be permitted to enter the
ring.
Oeorges hnd a brand-new pair of
white trunks with blue stripes down
each hide. He said this morning that
he dlil not intend to wear a belt of the
tricolor of France, as had been reported.
The confidence of Cnrpentler's com
rades in his ability to defeat Dempsey
wns displayed today in the nnnounce
ment thnt several of them hnd bet close
to S.'OOO that Oeorges would win by a
knockout. They said they had been
given three mid five to one.
The usual privacy was observed nt
the Mnnhnssct camp yesterday. In fnet,
with the approach of the bout this pro
tection of the challenger was continued
with even greater attention to detail
than nt nn other stngo of the chal
lenger's training period, Cnrpentier
likes seclusion from the multitude, nnd
he found this isolation in his Long
Island retreat.
Trainer Ous Wilson oflieinlly re
counted Cnrpentler's Inst dny in camp.
The challenger, Wilson s.nid, did ab
solutely no heavy work. He contented
himself with 11 short trip over Nnssau
County ronds and through nearby woods
in the morning. The hike wns neces
sarily more restricted than what the
chnllenger hns been accustomed to. It
wns raining hard nnd steadily, and
even the thick woods offered little pro
tection against the downpour. Cnr
pentier was accompanied by Paul
Journre, his French heavyweight spar
ring partner. The pnlr returned in
about three-quarters of an hour, both
drenched,
Cnrpentier then received n stiff rub
down, and ns a precaution he was
swathed In blankets to guard against
cold ns a result of his reckless exposure
to tho elements, in tho nfternoon the
challenger devoted n short time to light
enlisthenlcH, Intended merely to keep
him in trim. The cnlisthenlcs took plaej
in tho barn gymnasium.
Chnls on Front I'orrh
For the remainder of the dny Cnrpen
tier occupied himself ns best he could
In vnrious forniH of recrentlon. He
chntted nminbly with intimnte friends
who Journeyed to the enmp to wIhIi the
challenger luck in his Important task.
He lounged ubout the front porch re
counting tales of wnr nnd exchanging
jokes with his enmp "family." Fight
talk was banned by mutual const nt.
The topic Itself seemed furthest from
the mind of the man most concerned
Carpentier. His camp assistants nnd
advisers willingly foreswore discussion
on tho particular subject.
Trainer Wilson then exhibited himself
as a buck-and-wlng dancer of no little
skill. Always Carpentier was light
hearted, when soveral boyu appeared
nt the front gate of his retreat, the
chnllenger interrupted his porch story
telling for a little practice in ball play
ing. At 0 o'clock, whistling snatches of
an American war song, tho picturosquo
boxer tripped lightly up tho stairs to
his sleeping quarters nnd called a cheery
'Good night" to his comrades.
An incident which occurred during
wiu unit game in ine ntternoon rcilccted
clearly the ease of mind of the chal
lenger. One of the lads with whom
Carpentier wns playing has been a per
sistent visitor at the camp und the
challenger has been very friendly with
him. Carpentier named the youngster
"Marshal Foch" because of his strategy
In getting into the enmp on private
workout days. When Carpentier ad
vanced on the gathering of youngsters.
"Marshal Foch" stepped forward and
sold: "Georges, I think you're about
the nicest fellow I ever met, but Demp
sey's going to beat you tomorrow."
The greeted elicited a laugh from the
challenger, who patted the boy's back
nnd replied :
"I'm glod to hear you talk like that.
You're what I call a real good Ameri
can." Manager Francois Dcscamps exhibit
ed similar unconcern on the eve of bnt
tlc. He visited the Manhasset barber
for a tonsorlnl session and In the best
English at his command instructed the
scissors wiclder to use Cnrpentler'a
haircut as a model. The barber did,
with approved effect. Returning to the
camp, Manager Descamiis proudly doffed
his cap and instructed Carpentier to
look. The challenger got one look and
Inughcd loud and long. Dcscanips got
as much nmusement out of the incident
as did Carpentier.
Later in the morning Dcscnmp vis
ited the city for n conference with Pro
moter Tex Ulcknrd. Upon his return
the manager took up a position at the
farm gate und discussed the impending
battle.
After Descamp hnd finished, Trainer
Wilson discussed the bout as follows:
"Many people think thnt this will be
11 dancing exhibition nnd that Georges
will wait out Dempsey nnd keep away
from lilm for the entire twelve rounds.
I nnt not saying thut Carpentier will
dive in foolishly nnd slug from the
moment tho first bell rings, but I do
mean that he will fight Dempsey and
fight him viciously.
Greatest Fighter in World
"Georges is dangerous nnd, I think,
is the grentest lighter in the world to
day. They talk about Dempsey being
100 mrong lor mm. 1 want to know if
nny of these people mnking such ro
marks ever snw Joe Ueckett. Ileckett
could pick up Georges in one hand and
Dempsey in tho other and knock their
heads together, he is thnt strong. Yet
Oeorges floored him in one round.
"It's nil a matter of ring knowledge
nnd Georges knows too much for the
champion."
Captain Thierry J. Mallet, Cnipen
tler s close personal friend nnd adviser
in tills country, was inconsolable Inst
night. Cnntnin Mallet hns been looking
forward eagerly to witnessing the ap
proaching bout, but bccniisi of n severe
nttnek of sunburn ho will be unable to
do so. "For fourteen yenis." he said,
"I hnve been George's friend nnd hnve
watched hint win one championship after
nnother, Now I have to miss the great
est fight of his life, prol.ibly the great
est fight in ring history."
Cnrpentier will remain at his enmp
today until nbout 11 o'clock. Then he
will motor to Port nsliington and go
aboard the sixty-five-foot iitenm yacht
Lone Stnr, which is to enrry hint to tha
Jersey City shore. Carpentier plnns to
lunch nbonrd the craft. According to
Trainer Wilson, the challenger's lust
meal before the light will consist of 11
small steak, string beans, toast, baked
apple nnd weak tea.

Jersey City, July 2. "Never felt

night.
The chnmpion slept without Inter

frame of mind. Teddy Hayes, his
trainer, who occupied nn ndjolnlng
loom, was still nsleep and Jnck amused
himself by tickling his trainer's nose
until he opened his eyes. Then he pulled
Hayes out of bed.
Dempsey's breakfast consisted of two
boiled eggs, toast and a pot of ten.
Accompanied by Hayes, he started
out for a walk but such n large crowd
followed at his heels that he was forced
to return to the house. Hero worship
ers had spent most of the night in the
vicinity to get a glimpse of the defender
nnd to shout words of encourngemen.

percentage of women among the spec

generally picks his gods In the flesh, was
well represented.
After returning from his brief walk,
Dempsey amused himself by playing
jnzz records on a talking machine. He
nppenred to be the most llghMiearted
member of his entourage and didn t
show a single trace of the nnxlety that
he nnturnlly would be expected to feel

Dempsey Says He Is
Fit to Defend Title
By JACK I)I!MISKY
1 nnt ready for the battle, and my
eondltion, which I think is even
better than It was at Toledo, In stieh
thnt I will be able to give tliV best
efforts of my career. I nm not one
of those who expert nn easy fight,
nnd I nm prepared to fight nt my
best, be the bout long or short.
I nm nwnre that Carpentier Is n
shifty, elever boxer nnd a hunt hit
ter, and that is a combination not
easily overcome. I hope to win nnd
thus keep the title in America, but
If I am defeated I will bo the first
to eongratulnto the victor.
