Jer worlc meet man ey City, July 28.—~Jack Britton, velterweight npion, will Kid Lewis of England, the whom Jack wrested the in an eight round bout at the Armory A A. tonight. Though experts say the psychological effects of the knockout at the hands of Britton will be a dif- ficnlt thing for Lewis to overcome, Ted is confident that he will regain the laurels. That means that the Englishman hopes »p Britton, for that is the can take the fitle, in bout an eight round no decision affair. Britton’s knockout of Lewis came as a big irprise, for in recent years Jack has depended chiefly on his speed, skill and cleverness and seldom landed a haym on worthy rivals. Lewis took the American title from tton on a questionable referee’s decision. The pair have met in many no-decision cont 5 The only de- cisive victory scored by either man W Britton's knockout triumph Both men have trained hard for and are fit for the hattle of their lives. Lewis' friends say that Ted is going to make a rushing fight he real the only wa regain his is to stop Britton. If Lew make it slugging match many will be sur- prised, for heretofore he has been s a defensive boxer and has done his best work standing off and catching the other fellow coming in. However, Charley Harvey, manager of Lewis. insists Ted is going to throw science to the winds in an effort to batter Britton to the canvas.

New York, July 28.—Here is little set of figures, the gentleman who compiled it them E. J. Lynch, an Internal Revenue agent, is the man who vouches for them. If they are correct, then Jess Wil- lard sold his golden egg for a poke on the nose.

That was the differ- ence in the pay of the two boxers. Willard was actually given $100,000 by Rickard and Dempsey received $27,500. “But Willard did not profit $100,- 000 by the beating he received. When the government got through taking its cut, Jess boy had but $44,620 more than Dempsey. ‘Of the $100,000 he received, the former champion paid a normal in- come tax of $7,840. Then Jess paid a sur-tax of $23,570, which In total makes a tax of $31,410, which left him $68.580 for his few minutes’ work at Toledo. “Dempsey is not hit so hard His normal tax was $2,040 and his sur- tax $1,490, making a total tax on his Fourth of July income of $3,630, which, taken from the amount paid him by Rickard, left $23,970."
