A tenpacy himself was the promoter, ticket-taker and a principal on that boxing program, which grew out of an argument with another youth at Montrose, Col. They were about to scttle the difficuity in the usual American style, with fists, when Dempsey, showing a certain business acumen that has been noticeable in l:oth him and his manager in later days. suggested that they hold the bout indoors and charge admission. A few days later they pitched a ring in the town dance hall. Dempsey old and collect Soor until it was time to fight. They lit the $50 “gate” and declared it as “easy money.' B That bout staftcd Jack Dempsey in the profession which was to make him subsequently the highest paid athlete any sport has seen. He fought twenty-seven battles during 1915 and 1916, winning eight- ecn by knockouts and five on deci- sions. He fought three draws and was defeated once, by Jack Downey. l Descamps “Finds” Carpentier. How Georges Carpentier, taken from a Lens brewery, where he worked as an office boy, won his first battle by knocking out Francois Descamps, his instructor, when the latter attempted to chastise the youth, is one of the choice legends of boxing. Descamps’ keen perception on that day, as well as his shrewdriess and perseverance, has been a most important factor in bringing the French boxer to the prominent position he now occupies. Three four-round contests consti- tuted Carpentier's first year of ring activity in 19 Two of these he won, defeating, on points, Bourgeois and Wetinck, French boxers. There was more opposition in the third bat- tle, and at the end of four rounds Carpentier was the loser to one Mazoir, another Frenchman, who has sunk into obscurity. Carpentiers total ring earnings for that year are said to have been $184. The following gear was more suc- cessful. Twice in his fifteenth year the young Frenchman won by knock- outs, stopping Moinereau, a_fellow countryman, and Salmon, an English- man, the first in three rounds, the latter in eighteen. In another bout with Salmon, Carpentier won on a foul in thirteen rounds. He then de- feated Lepine in six rounds and fought two draws. Descamps had been bringing his youthful protege along carefully and already he was showing excellent form among France's best bantamweights. FAWCETT HIGH GUN.

Y., June 20—A question oft asked the tralning camp of Georges Carpentier is—why doesn’t he | let out his punches and drop a few sparring partners? This query probably was prompted by the nature of the work down at the Dempsey camp in Atlantic « few of his work-out opponents. The reason for this sort of training I: no longer a secret. One informant. who asked that his identity be withheld, ex- plains it thusly: “Carpentier has been in the boxing game for fourteen Years and he knows what he is about. He knows, too, what he can do. So I8 there any reason in the world why he should fill his camp with sparring partners and slam away at them every day? His trainers do not think so; they are developing his powers and his morale, the latter being so vital in a big fight of the sort that will come on July 2. All his knowledge of the fighting and his strength could not be brought to command if his mind were not right. “He hasn't any desire to knock out sparring partners—only an all-possess- ing desore to floor Jack Dempsey.

There was very little boxing in the heavyweight championship bout be- tween Jack Johnson and Jim Flynn, the Pueblo fireman, at Las Vegas, N. M., on the Fourth of July, 1912. Flynn attacked Johnson somewhat after the manner of a bull charging a bolshevik banner. Johnson devoted most of his energy to holding Flynn's arms, like a ticklish person defending himself from a playful comrade. The police stopped the performance in the ninth round. decision to Johnson, as he had had the upper hand during those sporadic periods when it appeared that a boxing bout was taking place.
