II goes the full twenty rounds and the
referee has to determine the winner
on points, 1t is thought that Carpen-
tier will receive the award.
Dempsey In Interested.
Jack Dempsey, holder Of the worlds
championship. is interested in the out
come OF tonight's battle in London,
for he will have chance to gather in
some coin meeting the winner. Jack
has been reaping some financial re-
ward with circus. but that's done
now. He is said to be performing in
the movies, but we haven't seen any
Of them yet.
II tonight's contest In London ends
with a decisive winner. the clamor
for battle between him and Jack
Dempsey WIZ begin at once. Brit
ish promoters have already hoped
out into the limelight with offers for
the bout, but Dempsey wants to be
assured Of several things before risk
ing his title in England.
II Dempsey agrees to defend his
title in London or Paris many
Americans will consider him foolish.
He Is in a position to dictate to
either Carpenter or Beckett. II
either wishes a chance at the worlds
title, he should be willing to come
to America and battle Dempsey under
the same conditions obtaining at To-
ledo.
However. tonight's scrap hasn't
been fought yet. Possibly after IL
is over, some word may come from
the Dempsey camp.
