u,oot,ng truths in general, that those

most about the past AMI future states

- free. for instance. ii is more inn
srortant to give the appearance Of en-

that we should feel that the upper

with the current of life and motion
which is animating every fibre than
that we should know the exact pitch

FULTON CAN'T GET MATCH WITH CHAMPS
 OF GREAT BRITAIN

Tom O'Rourke, the New York promo ter and manager of boxers, who took Fred Fulton to Europe with the hope of winning the championship of that part of the world, and thus putting himself in line for a bout with Champion Jack Dempsey, has been finding the managers of Joe Beckett, the British champion, and Georges Carpenter the French star. much harder to deal with than he had anticipated They are pretty wise over ir London and Paris to all things pugil- istic in America, and with big purses in sight they are taking no chances in buck ing up against tough proposition like Fulton.
 Fred vas beaten in one round by Dempsey, and has put up some miser- able battles at different times, but just the same he can fight when right and IS mighty dangerous customer for anyone, the champion included. And at that Dempsey is just clamoring for another chance at Fred on account Of the story he gave out in San Francisco some months ago in which he intimated that he was double-crossed by some one when he fought Dempsey. Later Frederick denied the story. but that did not help matters, and Jack is laying for chance to even up the score in fact, Jack has come out cold turkey with a statement that he will fight Fulton ahead of any one else just to show him that he can repeat the dose.

|KEARNS LOST S20,000
 THROUGH MIX-UP

Jack Kearns. manager of Jack Demp- sey, claims to have lost s2o,oOo through the nix-up of the timer and referee at the Toledo match, July 1, when Jess Willard was relieved of his crown. Kearns says he had made wager or 5000 against s20,OOO in Kansas City and some other place that Dempsey would stop Jess in the first round. Jack ad- mits that he had merely made the bluff at first, feeling in his own heart that Dempsey would be liable to win in round or two but that after he had been called he had to make good and he did SO He is sore for losing the bet, which rightfully belonged to him, for there is no doubt at all that there was mix-up in the time and that Dempsey should have been declared the winner in the first session.
 The writer held the watch on the men from the time the referee, Ollie Pecord called them to start fighting, after IL was seen that the gong did not sound; at least no one around the rins heard il There was a lapse of at least 20 to 20 seconds after the gong was first sounded before the referee started the 1ight anu that is where the mix up came in tim ing. Willard was down more than io seconds. according to the correct time, but owing to the mix-up it was passed by and Jess saved from count out Tn the first. It was tough on Kearns, for there is no doubt he is out just S2o.0OO on ac- count of the carelessness in making the ring arrangements.

ICarpentier and Beckett
 Anxious for Match
 With Jack Dempsey

Both Carpenter and Beckett would like to get crack at the purse to be offered for a match with Dempsey, for they know it will run St75,0o0 or more, London promoter having already put in a bid for that amount for the bout Carpenter and Beckett were matched for September 8 in London, but a post ponement was announced until the 16th on account of Georges inability to ge. away from the army for training. Beck cit seems more than anxious for the match, as he realizes that Carpenter, being European champion, will get the call, and he would like to get the French man before Dempsey does, feeling cor tain that he has a splendid chance to win, Carpenters showing against Dick Smith, the Englshman, who formerly held the heavyweight title. was nothing to enthuse over, and that is proba bbly the reason Manager Deschamps is not Anxious to let Georges go against Beck ett at this time. It would not be sur prsng if Carpenter cancelled the match until after his trip to America, which he has been planning for the first oe the year He could clear up a barrel of coin doing theatrical work and then get the Dempsey match, In the meantime Eddie McGoorty, the Wisconsin middle weight, is trying his best to get match with Beckett. If the latter can hold Me- Goorty even or better the fans will have greater confidence in his ability as a real contender
