FACTORY IS CHANGED

Bemidji citizens are interested in
a corporation procedure which makes
the Bemfdji Box company, part. Of
the Embellishments concern,
which operates plants at Cass Lake,
Washburn. Wis.,, and Bemidji. The
name of the Bemidji concern has also
been changed and all three plants

follows: President, NJ. s. Lamoreaux,

DEMPSEY WINS TITLE
!. WHEN WILLARD THROWS.
SPONGE IN THIRD ROUND
Challenger <Dslivex. ,;Bloa.,+~s;lii,l &
First Round From Which
champion Never Recovered.

Ringside, Toledo, Ohio. July 81
Jack Dempsey, in three bloody
rounds. during which the issue was
never in doubt, attained the worlds
premier fistic championship by de-
feating Jess Willard. The first round
Dempsey sent home body blow
which the big fellow never re-
covered. T.
The gong alone saved him from
defeat in this round, for with swol-
len cheeks, right eye closed, Dempsey
knocked him down or threw him
helpless against the ropes seven
times. Dempsey though he had won
when the gong sounded and had to
be brough tointo the ring. Willard,
who lowered above Dempsey, his an
tagonist,:. like, lighthouse over a
tug acted. Like sick man. He was
beaten and knew 1t. He swung
wildly and feebly, while his relent-
less antagonist pounded blows like
a great riveting machine. There were
cries of stop it," "Stop it," Its
murder!" Jess managed to last out
the third round and sank into his
corner where he was given aromatic
spirits Of ammonia. Tried to smile
and then his seconds surrendered
the match.
Willard said: In the first round
when Dempsey hit me with a left
hook, tried hard to continue, but !
was rapidly losing my strength. My
eye was closed at the AVID of the third
round and I realized that it would
be useless for me to continue, as
could hardly see. 1t is hard to ad-
NIT defeat, but Dempsey is the hard
est puncher ever faced"
Dempsey said: II told you would
knock him out in the first round and
to all intents and purposes that Is
what I did He took lot of pun
ishment in the next two rounds but
was soon so feeble that I hated to
have to hit him." -
1t is probable that Champion
Dempsey's first move will be toward
the vaudeville or burlesque state, he
told friends today. His purse for ad-
ministering the most effective wal
loping ever given in 9 ring is mere
pittance compared with the roll col
lected by willard for assimilating the
punishment. Willard, the giant, who
fell seven times in the first round be-
fore the Utah battler's pile driver
brows, rested today, his wife sooth-
ing his wounds.
There were rumors all night that
Willard suffered a broken jaw but
he claims this a mistaken report. He
does not admit that he lost any teeth
but Dempsey and others claim they
saw him spit out three on the canvass
of the ring. Dempsey claims he
knocked Willard out twice and that
he should have been given the ver-
dict in the first round.
