J., Jack Dempsey is at the wire edge of his training for the defense of his title against Georges Carpentier at Jersey City next Saturday afternoon. The champlon ended his hard work with a forty-five minute workout In his open alr arena yesterday after- noon. Today he rested and on Tues- day he will begin the tapering off process. The program mapped titleholder leading up to the contest calls for the He boxing on Wednesday ably will not work with heavywelght sparring partners in his final two days of boxing, but face smaller and lighter opponents to increase his speed and sharpen judgment of dis- tance. He also will cut down his pad work to long walks, with an oc- jonal sprint to help his wind. Jemprey balanced the scales at ex- actly 194 pounds before he climbed into the ring. He plans to take off three or four pounds in the final two ts, but Manager Kearns said may go into the ring around the pounds mark, Instead of 190 pounds, as has been expected. Despite overcast skies and thre: ening continuation of rain, about 500 sat on the rainsoaked pine of the arena to see the champlon maul four sparring partners in seven rounds of boxing. Dempsey's work was impressive, but the cxperts thought he did not box with as much speed or with as much drive to his punches as he has been showing in earlier workouts. Manager Kearns explained this, how- ever, by saying that he had cau- tioned Dempwey to work lghtly. Wearing the headgear to protect the healing cut over his left eye, Dempsey boxed the first two rounds with Eddle O'Hare and the third with Herman Miller, a Baltimore 180 pounder, who was with the champion before he won his title. Larry Wil- Mams faced Dempsey for the fourth and fifth rounds and Jack Renault the sixth and seventh. Before box- ng, Dempsey pulled the weights for fice minutes and shadow boxed for two rounds.

Manhasset, b 5 27.— Georges Carpentier will go into the ring City next Saturday with only one thing in mind, an in- vincible determination to wrest the world's championship from Jack Dempsey. This was the assertion of Gus Wilson, the challenger's chief trainer. “There will be no snap for Jack Dempsey,” Wilson said. “He will have to be more ghan a greal fight- er to beat Georges. Never before in his fighting career has Carpentier displayed such determination as he does today. When he talks of the fight he grits his teeth and clenches his fists and remarks, ‘He shall not beat me. Something tells me that I can defeat him and I shall do it His hardest blows will not find me and those that he lands 1 know 1 can stand.’ " The challenger deal of sentiment to the hundreds of letters he receives daily from war veterans and other Americans in all walks of life. “They want me to win,” he said. “They expect me to emerge from the ring champion and I will not disap- point them if every bone in my body is broken Before June at Jersey attaches a great to America according to Georges came this last time he had, Wilson, naturally, a great desire to Dempsey. But this desire has ased to such an extent that now Carpentier cannot describe just what he feels. “The Frenchman takes of interest in the daily mail because he likes to the many good things the rican public has to say about him,” Trainer Wilson said. “He requires me to read every one of them.and he is like a big boy in displaying his appreciation. Really, they have helped him, strange as it may seem, to attain the physical per- fection you see in him today great deal Am —— TO LEAD YAL New York, June drich, of Fall River, elected captain of the Yale 19 ball team at a dinner Satur Aldrich who will also capts football team next fall, plays short- stop on the nine.

INTEREST IN FIGHT. British Sporting Public Will Get Re- turns at Opera House. London, June 27.—Interest in the Dempsey-Carpentier fight is eclips- ing that shown in any ring event within the recollection of English followers of the sport. Special cor- respondents of the London newspa- pers are sending over long accounts of the routine of the two training camps and other gossip which prominently featured, while articles signed by both Carpentier and Demp- sey are daily appearing in the Lon- don press. ' At Covent Garden, London’s prin- cipal opera house, round by round stories of the fight will be received next Saturday night. As ring affairs in England are usually dress occa- sions and women are generally pres- ent in large numbers, a smart crowd is expected. Two bouts have been ar- ranged for entertainment betwcen dispatches. Rickard Exercises His Contract Privi- lege by Recalling Percenthige Clause. New York, June 27.—gack Demp- sey will receive a flat. sum of $300,- 000 and Georges Carpentiér $200,000 regardless of the outcome of the charapionship fight at Jersey City on July 2. This became known today when the announcement that Tex Rickard, the promoter, had exercised his con- tract privileze of recalling the pre- vious arrangement whereby Dempsey was to receive 36 per cent. of the re~ ceipts and Carpentier 24 per cent. Th guaranteed purse of half a million dollars is by far the greatest in ring histery. This highest pre- vious record was the $127,500 guar- ante2 for the Dempsey-Willard match at Toledo in 1919.
