DEMPSEY WORKS
DURING A RAIN

There was one thing that Detnp-
sey got yesterday that Willard
didn't get. If it rains on the after
noon of July 4, Jack will know
what it feels to have the rain drops
patter on his carcass, for it rainCd
while he was doing his shadow
boxing.
The spill was more than notice
able and the combined rain and
perspiration made Dempsey a
rather damp person when he lett
the ring. The fans didn't duck to
cover. but stayed and took the
drenching with good nature.
1t threatened to rain all morn
ing, but Willard managed to get his
workout off his chest before the
clouds opened.
When not talking of workouts
and condition of the scrappers last
night the fellows assembled here
were Cabling about a big eating
party scheduled for today
noon. All are to be guests at
Dempsey's Maumee bay camp.
Mayor Cornell Schneider. head of
the Toledo boxing commission;
Tex Richard. Frank Flournoy, and
others, including the scribes, who
now number about thirty, will
stick their kickers under the table.
Jess Down to Work.
The days of play are at an end
for Jess Willard. The champion
has decided that from now until
July his training will be real
fighting, not boxing and kidding
with his sparring partners. The
fans will miss his repartee.
Wizards decision to emulate the
example of his challenger, Jack
Dempsey, by fighting in the Ca
sino, wasn't entirely unexpected.
Just before he motored out to the
camp a statement by him was the
cue for what might be expected.
He said:
I've REACHED the turning point
in my training now. I've found out
where l stand. Perfection of wind
comes next, but there won't be any
trouble there. Don't worry about
me firing"

Toledo, Ohio, June 17.-Jess Will

a voice in the selection of a referee
to judge their heavyweight cham
pionship contest here July 4, de-
spite the prevailing impression that
the third man in the ring will be
chosen by the army, navy and

This developed today when the
board, in accepting Promoter Rick
ards invitation to pick the officials
for the contest advised that both
boxers be consulted before
definite selection is made.
Willard changed his tactics in his
workout yesterday and promises to
repeat the performance today, much
to the discomfort of his sparring
partners. Instead of handling his
sparring mates gently as he did last
week, the champion showed himself
a Furnishing, hard hitting fighter
Willard warned his partners what
to expect and bluntly told them
that they could look out for them
selves.
