realized that the reign of Jess Will

the referee stood as though he was
petrifed. But in a trice he leaped
across the ring. and yelling for
Dempsey to come forward.
Dempsey stepped to the center of
the battlefield. Pecord raised the
arm of Jack Dempsey. which an

fight on a technical knockout, and

The final statement of receipts Of
= the Dempsey Willard fight will not
be given out until late to-day, was
the word from Promoter G Rick
ard this morning.
Frank Flournery, who was asSo-
ciated with Richard in promoting the
fight, told Mayor S~chresSer's secre-
tary. Dewitt Fisher, THAI he thought
the receipts would not figure much
above S700.0 900. This amount is a big
because Richard a bank
ed on a million-dollar gate.
~ OF this amount 1T Ia estimated
= That the city of Toledo will receive
about S42.00 0 while the government
tax will come to more than $4,000.
I The city has already received $4,000
of it's share.
> Richard was very much dtsap-
pointed in the attendance and the
receipts because the people out this
way told him hat the fight would
draw heavily from all the cities IN
the middlewest. AS a matter of fact,
local people did not attend the fight
in large numbers at all. Practically
all the high priced seats went to
sporting men from other cities. Rick
ard said that if the fight a been
held in New York or San Francisco,
all the tickets in the $40 and SIS
sections would have been grabbed
up. There was 40 gallery crowd at
this fight at all. The popular priced
seats did not sell.
: While the fight drew the greatest
receipts ever taken in at a glove con-
test, Richard went to enormous ex-
pense to stage the affair. Among the
Arena, s150,0o0; Willard, 500, 900;
Dempsey, s27, 500; government tax,
$4,000: City of Toledo. $4,000.
This makes a total of sS7S,600
without numerous other incidental
expenses. The promoters will receive
as their share an mount much
smaller than they figured on.
Some of the none which was
taken by the city will be used to
aid the children and the poor of the
city. The children are to be sent to
summer camps and many of the little
ones who have neve had a chance
I for a real vacation, will now enjoy
themselves as a result of the fight
having been held here.
, The big arena will be auctioned
to the highest bidder as it stands.
Practically all the lumber can be
salvaged with very slight damage.
The lumber was furnished by local
firms. who pooled their interests in
the big contest.

Dempsey Draws Color
Line, but Will Meet
Any White Challenger

In his first statement since be-
coming world champion, Jack
Dempsey announced that he will
draw the color line and pay no
attention to negro c~hallengers,
but that he is ready to defend the
title against any white heavy
weight. He proposes to do the
atrical work for seven or eight
months and will not fight in that
period. The largest theatrical
offer received yet is $4,000 a
week.
Dempsey says that when he has
finished his proposed theatrical
engagements he will take on any
one who wants to challenge for
the title. He will follow the de-
mands of the sporting public in
his fights, for he does not believe
in disappointing the people who
pay for the game.
His statement that he has
drawn the color line means that
Jack will pay no attention to any
challenges which might come
from Harry Wills, who is just
now the king-pin of the black
heavyweights. Next spring 1t Is
not improbable that Dempsey may
be matched to fight Georges Car
penter, the French heavyweight,
or Jim Beckett, the new English
champion.
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1919-07-07

the ring and some of the ringside
division tried to climb through the
ropes and embrace Dempsey, who was
standing in his corner. Wizards
second were assisting the giant
to his corner and trying with every
means in their power to bring him
back to a semblance of his old self.
Dempsey wins" shrieked the crowd.
But Dempsey hadn't won, not then,
for Pecord and some of the other Of
icials ordered the crowd back. And
before the crowd could realize what
was doing or what happened the
fighters were again at work. What
h~appened?' demanded the crowd, and
then it was announced that Record
hadn't quite completed counting out
Willard before the bell rang. But no
one heard the bell, which was pro-
nounced faulty by Pecord even be-
fore the battle began, and which
sounded but family. Dempsey, real
izing hat he was a certain winner,
played things safe in the second act.
He opened with a rush at Willard
and smashed several ripping blows
to the head and body. just to stun the
champion a little more. One drive
sent Willard Keeling to the ropes.
Another sent him back near Demp-
sey's corner. Then Dempsey slowed
up a little.
willard looked a wreck when he
came out Of the third round and be-
fore 1t ended he was the most bat
tered champion that the heavyweight
division of the ring has ever known.
Whirling from the corner with all
the speed and aggressiveness of
which he is capable. Dempsey went
out to finish willard in h a round.
And he did.
WiIIard's Eye Closed
'Driving his powerful left to Will
lard's head, Dempsey closed WIZARDS
right eye completely. and also In
creased the cash over the left eye
to such a point that willard was
almost blinded. Then Dempsey be-
gan driving for the jaw and stom-
ach, while Willard staggered around
the ring and tried to avoid him. But
