[ (OTHER SPORTING JEFFRIES FAILED IN GOMEBACK ROLE Californian Met His Master in Jack Johnsen In the long list of decisive ring bat- tles through which the mantle worn by Sullivan has passed down the years to -the bronzed shoulders of Jack Dempsey, there is no page to com- pare with that recounting the clash between Jack Johnson and Jim Jeff- ries in a sun-scorched arena at Reno on July 4, 1910. Tex Rickard reared a great wood- en saucer out on the plains of Ne- vada to accommodate the thousands who gathered from all over the coun- try to see the tilt. He hung up a purse of $101,000, unprecedented prize in those da H Jeffries had not fought in more | than five years. In the days of his § reign in the ring, none had been his master and he had retired voluntar- ily with no defeats recorded against him. He was years old, an age often reckoned as dotage in the realm of sport. The attempt on his part to restore the championship to the white race was an effort to which he had been induced by a constant clam- or for those who despaired of John- son ever being beaten by the crop of white hopes then seeking matches with him. Crowd Sees Battle. It was a great throng that assem- bled for the battlé. Fringed around the great arena packed were rows of “birds’ nest built to shelter the sweet sisterhood from the Reno di- vorce colony.

Jeffries trained down to 225 pounds to meet the sleek op- ponent three years his junior and then in magnificent physical trim. There was vigorous fighting at the start, with Jeffries crouched into seri- ous mien and his opponent erect, grinning and talking as usual. Kidding Jefl. In the fifth round Jeffries sent a stray left that rocked Johnson and momentarily wiped away his smile. But the worried look on the black face passed, big white teeth again gleamed and through them came the admonition “Don’t Rush, Mistah Jeff, doncha heah what a’hm tellin’ you?" “Come on, Jeff, it's easy,” he re- peated often through the bitter rounds. Boilermakers' Finish. Age and five years of freedom from the rigors of training told on Jeff- ries and the power of his blows grew “less strong as the battle went on. In the 15th round—the last one—John- son sent him to the ropes with a sav- age uppercut. Against the drooping head of the weary white man the black fighter then pounded away with one uppercut after another. The challenger had tried and failed and he fell taking punishment. His manager hopped into the ring to stop the slaughter whereupon Rickard held up Johnson's hand in signal of victory, FOR GLORY NOT COIN Georges Carpentier Wants American Public to Know He Is After Cham- pionship Rather Than Dollars. Manhasset, N. Y., June 18.—The story that Georges Carpentier lost his fortune during the war and consented to fight Dempsey as a means of re- plenishing his bank account has been branded here as “idle talk.” One of the challenger’s most inti- mate friends said today that Car- pentier has been much annoyed over this deport and wants the American public to know that he is fighting Dempsey for glory. “While his share of the purse will be large in the gross, it will dwindle in the payment ot taxes and division with manager, trainers and other members of the party and will be comparatively small,” his friend said. “Few persons in America know that Carpentier has money enough to permit his retirement from the ring right now and keep him and his fam- ily in luxury for life. “His beautiful villa at Dieppe is one of the show places in the coun- try. He has a large number of ser- vants there and at his parents’ home which also is a place of beauty and luxur He keeps half a dozen auto- mobiles and has valuable property in different parts of France from which he realizes a comfortable income. “Georges wants to be heavyweight champion of the world.” Carpentier was much refreshed to- day after his enforced idleness of vesterday when he was compelled to cut the training program short be- cause of rain.

DEMPSEY 4 TO 1 FAVORITE. Wager of $1,000 to $1,000 Made on Champion in Wall Street. New York, June 18.—As high as 4 to 1 was quoted yesterday in the bet- ting odds in Wall Street on the world’s heavyweight championship bout between Jack Dempsey and Georges Carpentier. W. L. Darnell & Co., 44 Broad street, placed a wager on the champion of $4,000 to $1,000. Wagering on the battle was brisk throughout the day, with Dempsey a pronounced favorite. James W. Ball & Co., 67 Exchange Place, and the Darnell house reported having placed several good-sized wagers at 3 1-2 to 1 that Dempsey will win the bout. Darnell & Co., offered §500 against $4,000, odds of 1 to 8, that Carpen- tier does not respond to the clang of the gong for the second round, and. $1,000 at odds of 6 to 5 that the challenger does not answer the call for the seventh round. However, there were not takers for either proposition. JOURNEE GETS LICENS Carpentier’s Partner Receives Per- mit to Box Under Walker Law.

JEFFRIES FOR REFEREE Bob Edgren and Tex Rickard Favor Former Champion As Third Man in Ring on July Atlantic City, June 18.—Robert Ed- gren, stakeholder and final arbiter of all disputes between Jack Dempsey and Georges Carpentier, and Tex Rickard favor the selection of James J. Jeffries, former champion as ref- eree of the championship contest. Edgren made this announcement after a conference with Manager Kearns on the referee situation over which a controversy is raging be- cause of the desire of New Jersey boxing commission to appoint a New Jersey referee. “If the referce finally is left to me for selection 1 shall recommend the choice of Jeffries,” Edgren said. “He has an unimpeachable reputation for hones knows the me and has a de reputation as a former champion. “When the Carpentier-Dempsey match was first made, I was the choice of the princip: s referee. 3ut I am willing to step aside in fa- vor of Jeffries or anyone else if the situation can be adjusted.” There will be another the commission Monday time the referee question will be ttled. Wm. (Pooch) Donovan, the veter an of Harvard athletic teams ex- pressed the opinion today that = hard work for the next two weeks would place Dempsey on edge for the de- fense of his title.

Battling Ghee, the Memphis, Tenn., 185 pound negro, who waited for ht days for an opportunity to take a few punches t Dempsey probably is sadder but wiser today.
