THE EVENING WORLD, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER Ti, i Practically No Chance Now of Dempsey Boxing Carpentier Abroad. ACK DEMPS trip to Burope J feems to have knocked him out of & match with Carpentier in elther England or France, although a bout was tentatively arranged for neat June. Since Dempsey's return to ‘America the promoters have been Uatening to public comment, and find that there is little confidence in Car- pentler’s ability to even make a good showing against the champion. People have seen Dempsey and they know he 1s too big and rugged to be beaten by @ small man like Carventier, Carpentier nus slened a three Moving picture contract with Stuarc Blackeon, whi is now in England, and it's likely he won't fight again after his match with Battling Stki, the Sen- egalese heavyweight. Siki, a big, rangy fellow, not quite as dark of complexion as Sam Langford, took up hoxing when he came to France dur- ing the war with Senegalese troops He has beaten many middle and heavy weight boxers, and boasts that he will knock Carpentier out in less -year time than it took Dempsey to turn the trick, Running short of oppo- nents in France, Siki was offered a match with an American Negro boxer, but announced that he was of supe- rior stock, his ancestors having been free from the time of Caesar down, and thathe draws the “color line” on that account. Bik! ts said to be a dangerous op- ponent for Carpentier, The match hag been postponed several times and 1s now on for the end of September, but may be postponed again, indefi- nitely, because of Carpentier's movie prospects. If Carpentier drops the Siki match it's a sure thing he won't risk having Dempsey knock him out of the pictures, IT see that a Frank Moran-Joe Beckett match |= causing some ex- citement in England, where Moran hag won a lot of fights in the past ten years, and |s still regarded as one of the best American heavyweights. Moran was a rugged citizen for sev- eral years, although never anything more than a slugger, but his star dropped into the sink with a 1 splash when Fred Fulton knocked hi out four yaars ago. In his few suc- ceeding ring battles he never was anything but a punching bag for his opponent: If Beckett can’t beat Moran it's time for England to look ‘up some new heavyweight. V4 Commission ruled that Johnny Dundee would lose his New York boxing license’ if he boxed Johnny Kilbane jn New Jersey, it performed an acrobatic stunt. Dun dee was proclaimed featherweight champion—in New . York—because Kilbane ignored his challenge and posted forfeit. Kilbane's world title was annulled—in New York State— for the same reason Both Dundee and Kilbane are 'n good standing in New Jersey, and to a mere outsider It seems absurd that the New York commission should claim any right tq control or even influence boxing outside of its own Btate. In any case, it is entirely to punish Dundee for boxing HEN the New York Boxing iNomtcal Kilbane after condemning Kilbane tor not boxing Dundee, 'LLY MISKE, whose knockout B string was broken by Bot Roper, who fought a twelve round draw with him at Oklahoma City, says he sees no reason why he shouldn't be Dempsey's next oppo- nent. Miske has been fighting in the best form of his life, He might b Brennan or any of the other heayy- weights boxing around the country and still not be a mateh for’ the champion. Miske told me—afier } first ficht with Dempsey, years ago that he didn't know what happened after the fourth rownd and that Dertp sey “must have held him e"That fellow can knock me out in half a minute any time he wants to," Was Miske's exact state nt Perhaps he changed his mind later for he fought Dempsey again and did his share of fighting until he was knocked out, He was game enough to take it. For all that the only question to be settled in another Miske-Dempsey match would be just how many rounds Miske could stay on his feet. And that doesn't make @ very interesting bout ESS WILLARD | still in training in Hollywood, determined to get the return mateh for the cham. Plonship that has often been prom ised nim.
