But that is unimportant. Mr, Dempsey i§ signed for a period of many weeks and there is more chance of La Follette leading three cheers for the Morgans than there is of Mr. Dempsey allowing anything so vulgar and commonplace as a prize fight to interfere with his tookings. It Mr. Dempsey s seen in the ring growling savagely at a profes- sional enemy before next May at the very earliest, it will be due to a widespread antipathy on the part of | the customers for the champion as a talented vaudevilllan who com- bines according to his manager, Jack | Kearns, the top-most merits of Jol- son, Barrymore and 'Turpin. You may eare to listen in on a part of the act. Miss Whoosit: the ring? Mr. Demps2y (blushing behind his fluttering eavs): Who told you I hail bought her ona? This is supposed to knéck the boys right back on their Se«ich, and s a fair, or unfair example, of what the outlying cities have in store for them this winter, besides the usnal kardships that accompany a long winter, Mr. Dempsey presently sheds his soup and halibus and steps forward in silk fighting trappings.

There will e no ' Dempsey fight of any kind this winter, By May he will be ready to take on efther Tommy Gibbons or Jack Re- nault, as a warm-up for a Labor Day mill with either Tirpo or Wills, Promoter Rickard still thinks he can build up make a return meeting with the champion more desirable than one with Wills, the really logical con- tender, i For some reason or other the Dempsey-Kearns combine are cold on Wills.

The contest was a great disap- pointment for the boxing fans were looking for a short -fast Lattle, figuring it impossible for men of the iype of Delaney and McCarthy te go any distance ofter they cut loose, Pat Refuses to Fight Instead of there being any real serapping, Pat all the way through refused to pitch in. He kept hold- ing on. In the whole fight he did not hit Delaney more than five times and slopped around so that Delaney had no chancs ty extend himself, al- though he produced several sweet left jabs and had his way In every rovnd. The referee kept telling the local {man to get onto himself but the ad- ionitions had no effect. Friends of the Nutmeg Stater were afraid that cue of Pat's terrific wallops was likely to land with results on Jack's tender chinbut their fears proved to have no f.undation at all.
