NEW YORK, April 29.—Details for the Dempsey-Carpentier heavyweight championship battle in Jersey City July 2 are rapidly being arranged. It has been decided to send the prin- cipals to the center of the ring at 3 p-m., daylight saving time. The tickets are promised for de- livery during the coming week, and these immediately will be distributed throughout the larger es of the country and placed on sale by author- ized agents. With the exception of a few of the cheaper sections, every scat will be reserved. Prices will range from $5 to $50. So great is the early demand for press seats that tentative provision has been made to divide the reporting section into two divisions. Approximately 140 seats will be as- signed to the press at the ringside, and these seats will be awarded to those who will operate telegraph, telephone and cable wires. Directly back of this press section will come the arena boxes and other high-priced seats for spectators, while a second section of press seats will follow for writers who will not re- quire wire connections.

American yachtsmen are sufficiently numerous and enterprising to make a lot of a national yachting season with- out the stimulus which international competition applies to whatever sport. But there may be no question that tie year 1921 on tho water will have an added flavor of zest because of the com- petition among yachtsmen of the (wo greatest maritime nations which the coming_season will involve. And, be- sides, there is in prospect the race across the Atlantic ocean for a cup offered by King Albert of Belgium, Then, too, the New York Yachut Club for the first time since 1916 will be on the water with a full itinerary of events, ranging from the June regatta for the spring cups at Glen Cove to_the annual lenger. There will be the ocean race be- tween the fishermen of Gloucester and Canada in early October. Two new schooners have been built; for the Americans, the Mayflower, de- signed by Starling Burgess, and for the Canadians, the Bluenose, launch- ed last month at Lunenburg. Other events will involve races for the gold cup fisher trophy and Fisher- Wood trophy, both for power boats; a regatta for the Manhasset bay chal- lenge cup, windjammers; and re- gattas for the Puritan cup, the Green- wich cup, and other trophies for sail- ing craft.
