PECORD TO Be
FIGHT REFEREE
Maj. A. ]. Drexel-Biddle
And Tex Rickard to
Act as Judges.
By H. O. HAMILTON.

Toledo. o.. June 27.-Ollie Pecord
was named today as referee for
the willard championship
battle July 4.
Pecord will be assisted by Maj
A. J. Drexel-Biddle. of Philadelphia.
and Tex Rickard. who will act as
judges.
Pccord and his associates were
named by the Army. Navy and
Civilian Board of Boxing Control
Rickard announced their appoint
ment on receipt OF a telegram
from the board headquarters in
New York.
Jack Skelly, Yonkers, n. Y. was
named, as alternate referee, and w.
Warren Barbour. New York, will be
the time keeper.
Skelly was once amateur feather
weight champion. He fought George
Dixon in New Orleans for the pro-
fessional title. but lost.
William. Barbour. a wealthy New
York clubman. is a former amateur
heavyweight champion. His friends
once wanted him to fight Jack John
son.
Jack Dempsey expressed himself to-
day as vastly pleased with Ollie Pc
cord as referee. Give me an honest
man, who can count ten." he said.
I'm hit Willard early in the scra p
and 1t will be over. All | ask for is
that they send a referee in who will
not be afraid to start counting the
seconds and who will not be influenced
by superficial things"
Dempsey's training did not slacken.
despite assertions made by himself
that II likely would. He tied into
Jamaica Kid and Bill Tate with such
vigor that Jamaica Kid slid to his
launches after one murderous clout
on the chin and Bill Tate entered the
ring with the challenger only after a
heart-to-heart talk with Jack Kearns
Ollie Pecord is a former professional
boxer and ball player. He Is 50 years
old. Pecord came to Toledo thirty
nine years ago and began his pro-
fessional boxing career as a welter-
weight in the nineties.
Pecord was in the ring about five
years. When James ]. Corbett spent
a week here training for his last con-
test with Jeffries. Pecord donned the
gloves with him several times at his
training camp. near the present site
OF the Dempsey camp.
In 1888 Pecord was a member of the
birmingham team of the Southern
League and played with the Toledo
Club of the old Western League the
following year. In 1895 he played on
the Galesburg and Rock Island teams
OF the Three-1 League. His career as
a referee began in 1894. when he Of
ficiated at the bout between two ne
groes held in a barn at Williston,
Ohio, for $3.50 side bet and 25-75 per
cent division of the receipts Bouts
at that time required a fearless ref
cree. and Pecord was handed a 3S-
caliber revolver for protection be-
fore the contest began
Since that time Pecord has refereed
about 400 bouts. He was appointed
official referee OF the Toledo Boxing
Commission when it was organized a
year ago last April and has officiated
at all contests held under the direc-
ton of this body.

CARPENTER TO
FIGHT winner
Next Title Match Will See
French Heavyweight
In Action.
By FRED TURBYvILLE.

Toledo, Ohio. June 27.-The next
worlds heavyweight championship
match will be between the winner
of the Dempsey-Willard imbrogliO
here July Fourth and the champion
of Europe. The latter in all prob
ability will be Georges Carpenter.
for he is now recognized as the pre-
mier f1stic performer on the other
side and chances are he will retain
such honors for a time yet.
II the winner of the July Fourth
fight is Jess Willard very likely the
battle will be held on this side of
the pond and a good bet for its To-
cation is Chicago where the ten
round boxing law. recently passed.
has set the fight bugs agog.
II the winner of the fight here is
Jack Dempsey it Is highly probabl
that Jack Kearns will take the new
champion to Europe and the first
big match on that side of the pond
will be between Carpenter and
Dempsey.
II Dempsey wins he will want ac-
tion and lots OF it. He will appear
in the ring much oftener than any
other heavyweight champion Of mod.
ern days. He doesn't like TO loaf
Both Dempsey and Kearns have
promised that in event of victory on
Independence Day the public will not
have to clamor for the appearance
in the ring of the champion.
Kearns is OF the belief that matches
between the best in England and
France with the American champion
will do much to create an even
greater interest in the sport
American boxing fans and critic.
probably are unanimous in believing
that either Willard or Dempsey
would triumph in a match with Can
pentier, but just the same they
would go long ways to see such a
match
