While he training at Atlantic | -City two years ago for his match with Georges Carpentier, someone brought to camp a tiny roulette wheel. Mild gambling was immediate- ly in order. Finally Dempsey got tke wheel and put it out of sight. It re- appeared a few days later and Demp- sey announced that he had found a “system” to beat it. After he demon- trated this, he told the camp-mates that he had tampered with the wheel until it would “do as it was told.” Pinochle, hearts and “rummy” are Dempsey’s favorite games. | COMPARISON OF FIGHTERS MEASUREMENTS Comparisons between Jack Demp- sey’s measurements and Luis Angel Firpo, contender for the heavyweight | title of the world, which will take} place on September 14 are as follows: Dempsey’s Measurements Biceps ...

Dempsey Prefers Drab Colors New York, Sept. 11—The bathrobes that boxers wear into the ring haye | always: been in wonderful color com- binations. A lemon and black check- ed robe with purple trimmings has jbeen made fagnous by Luis ‘Angel Firpo. Other ideas range from start- ling shades of color, with mono- grams, or names of the wearer blaz oned thereon, to a hodge-podge of shades and figures that fairly take the breath away. ' Jack Dempsey, the world’s cham- pion has yet to appear in a bathrobe when he makes his entry into the ring for the defense of his title. An olq sweater, either faded red or pur- ple, a towel thrown over his head and shoulders is all the wrapping the champion affects, Hie trunks are invariably white, with his country’s colors knotted at the waist. . In his training camp Dempsey af- fects a dressipg gown of dark pur- ple. He wears this during the jour ney from his cottage té the ring and back again.~ There is nothing about Dempsey’s wearing apparel, in or out. of the ring, that can be termed “loud.”~In fact his color tastes are extremely first created just such a situation.

NATIONALS WHEN a champion fighter en- gages in a no-decision contest you can rest assured that the title-hold- er,seldom steps at top speed. No- decision, bouts -are regarded as the soft spots by champions. In taking part in such a contest the only thing they must guard against is a possi- ble knockout. As a rule they per- mit their opponent to be the aggres- sor throaghout and it doesn’t mat- ter how many points are piled up against the champion. Such things mean nothirig in a nodecision bout, At the finish the champion collects the Wig end of the receipts and departs. THE above is prompted by the fact that the wires recently catried the report that “Kid” Wagner of Ph: eaaiphia had decisively outpoint- ed npion Dundee in all but one of the eight rounds of a no-decision affair. Some of Dundee’s followers read the item with much alarm, feel- ing that it boded no good for Johnny in his coming, bou} with Lightweight Chanipion Benny Leonard, WHILE it may not be to the’ credit ofthe champions, they seldom do their best in a tic-decision affair, As & tule such bouts are regarded in the light of training.

The threatened entanglements were brushed aside in supreme court when Justice Hagarty denied the applica- cation of Harry Willg, negro ch: lenger,. for a tne bore? injunction against the championship struggle. Wills charged that he had been un- justly discriminated against by the state athletic commission and that his challenge to Dempsey more than a year ago had been ignored, but the court ruled that he had put forward no basis for interference with the forthcoming bout. . FIRPO_LIVENS UP WORK Atlantic City, N. J., Sept. 11—(By the Associated Press)—The same heavy sparring sessions, made more interesting bygtheir liveliness, were done today by Luis Angel Firpo, who meets Jack’ Dempsey for the world’s title in New York Friday night. The Argentine’ worked for speed, practiced defense and gave his sparring mates, John Lester Johnson, Young Bob Fitzsimmons and Joe Mc- Cann, ds usual, left the ring pretty well worn. The South American seemed to have acquired the knack of shoot- ing. left, thensright, and viceversa, instead of launching the ‘famed right, then backing away and ‘letting it go again, Hg saw the effect of this sort of punching and appeared pleased. There had been talk early today that Firpo’s left arm was giving him trouble; but there was no evidence of soreness during the workout, 'ALKER SEES DEMPSEY Saratoga Springs, N. Y., Sept, 11. (By the Associated Press)—Plunging into his final two days of training, Jack Dempsey revealed an amazing burst of speed in five rounds of box: ing against four sparring partners yesterday, convincing his admirers that he was ready to defendhis title against Luis Angel Firpo at the Polo Grounds Friday night. “The worlds heavyweight“champion, satisfied with the power back of his punches, intends to devote the last two days to shaping his judgment of distance, Jack Kearns,-manager of the titleholder, before leaving for New York last night, said Dempsey would box today and Wednesday, but only against light sparring part- ners, - Mickey Walker, world’s - welter- weight champion, believes.

The Polo Grounds, home of the New York Giants and one of the big- gest baseball plants in the country, will be converted into a massive arena, with a seating gapacity of ap- proximately 80,000. “ The playing field will be covered with temporary seats around the ring, which will be erected in the center of the diamoud, The greatest crowd that ever suw a boxing contest gathered in the pine bowl on Boyle’s Thirty Acres in Jersey City, N. J., July 2, 1921, to see Dempsey defend his title against Georges Carpentier. Close to 3,000 persons were jammed into the great spaces of the bowl that day. The to- tal_ receipts approximated $1,600,000. Claims were made that this figure was exceeded at the recent Willard- Firpo fight in the Jersey City arena, Rickard estimating the attendance at 100,000, but revised figures showed that the paid attendance was only 76,000 and the receipts $429,920. The championship bout between Dempsey and Willard at Toledo on July 4, 1919, although seen by only 19,650 spectators, drew a gate o! $452,522. This enormous ~rate wank made possible because of the high price of the tickets, Ringside seats sold for $60, while the cheapest benches brought $10 each. The bouts held in the Yankee Stadium May 12 of this year for thy’ benefit of the New York Milk Fund attracted 63,000 persons,-who paid $390,000. In the principal bouts Firpo knocked out Jack McAuliffe II, Willard knoekéd out Floyd Johnson, and Fred Fulton lost to Jack Renault on a foul. The first of the two contests be- tween Benny Leonard, world’s light- weight champion, and Lew Tendler, held at Boyle’s Thirty Acres in 1922, was wignessed by 59000 with a gate of $367,862. But all records for a lightweight champioriship were brok- en when the same men met in-the Yankee Stadium two months ago. It ‘was estimated that about 60,000 per- sons paid tlose to $400,000 to”. see Leonard defend his title. The famous battle of Reno, Nev., of July 4, 1910 in which Jack John. son, negro holder of the heavyweight title beat Jim Jeffries into submis- sion in 14 rounds, was witnessed by 20,000 persons, Unusually high prices swale the ‘gate receipts to $270,- The fourth of Jfily battle between Dempsey and Tommy Gibbons, fought in the boog town of Shelby, Mont., July 4, wa®perhaps the biggest fin. ancial failure in the history of cham- ploiwhip glove fights. Due to the last minute turn of events, when th: guarantee due Dempsey was nef’ forthcoming, causiig rumors that the battle would not~be held, the at- téndanee was held to’ approximately 12,500 with estimated receipts of $201,485.
