ERASES COLOR LINE Jack Kearns, Manager of Champion Dempsey, Announces His Man Bars No One Hereafter Atlantic City, New Jermey, May 25.— Jack Kearns, manager of Jack Demp- sey today eradicated a color line. Kearns sald that if the champlion eliminates Georges Carpentier on July 2, all barriers will be let down. The next opponent of Dempsey after Car- pentier has been conquered will be the man whose services will guarantee a purse “worthy of consideration” by the heavyweight champign of the world. Kearns made this announce- ment when asked whether Kid Nor- folk had refused advances to come here as a sparring partner. Kearns waid that all reports that he had made “special rates” to Norfolk are unfounded. Norfolk would be wel- comed, no doubt, but as far as going to the point of guaranteeing a meet- ing the thecbgkoink woynw kiknknk ing a meeting with the colored heavyweight, Kearns would make no promisos, Dempsey considers the only task before him at present is the elimina- tion of Carpentier. He regards the European champion the only logical contender for the crown. Kearns as- | serts Dempsoy will retain his laurels | after the battle in Jersey City and de- | elares that his next ensmgement will { depend upon the trend of public clamor, If the American public demands that he meet Kid Norfolk or any other negro and the promoter is found who will guarantee the sum necessary to promote such a match, he will be ready in behalf of Dempsey to eliminate the color line KILBANE AND JACKS Cleveland, May 25.—Johnny Kil- bane, featherweight boxing champion and Froddie Jucks, British champion meet here tonight in a ten round no- decislon bout in the firet open air show of the seasons.
