JACK DEMPSEY new
HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMP
JESS WILLARD LOSES TITLE IN
THREE ROUNDS
Dempsey FlOOred Opponent Five
Times in First ROund-DecisiOn
Was Never in Doubtless Willard
HOpelessly 0utclassed.

Toledo, Ohio, July by virtue Of
one of the speediest and most one
sided battles which ever decided a
big fistic event, Jack Dempsey, who
may now wish to be known by his
full voting name of William Harrison
Dempsey, today became the worlds
champion heavyweight boxer.
To all intents and purposes he
whipped the huge Jess Willard, IA
forte in the meager betting, in one
round. Dempsey thought the referee
had announced him winner and &C.
tually left the ring. But he was
called back and the butchery contin-
ued for two rounds more, when Jess,
sitting in his corner, with bewil-
dered look on his swollen countenance,
failed to respond to the gong for the
fourth round.
1T was no use to continue" said
the ex-champion. my strength went
from me in the first round".
He. sat there, apparently the most
surprised man in the United States
at the moment. His right eye was
closed and his ditto cheek swollen
and blue with bruises. Blood covered
his body and his arms hung so help
lessly over the ropes that it seemed
as if a child might give him further
abuse without arousing his interest.
Dempsey was breathing hard when
the fight ended, but It was from exer-
tion and not punishment. He es-
caned almost unhurt, but as he had
been using lis arms like trip-ham-
mers on the anatomy of his opponent
for nine crowded minutes in a sun
that set the thermometer to ITO de-
grees, his heart was still pumping
at high pressure and he appreciated
the breathing SPELL
In the first few seconds of the con-
test it looked as if the experts who
had been assigned to keep detailed
account of all blows struck might
come measurably close to doing so,
but it was only for a fraction Of a
moment. After that the experts did
well to count Jacks blows, let alone
take note of how each was made.
The challenger knocked the big fell
low down five times in the first
round and had him hanging helplessly
on the ropes or draped over his own
shoulders most Of the time when he
was not taking advantage Of the
count.
The crowd thought The fight was
over ii that round. Willard was
down for the fifth time and the

count was apparently about to end
when the gong sounded. 1t was a
modest gong, which could not make
itself heard before so many people
and even Dempsey did not get it. He
crawled through the ropes and was
headed out onto the shoulders OF
screaming fans when the truth was
broken to him and he was hauled
back.
Such fighting as the Kansas ranch
man produced was placed on exhibit
ton at the onset. He had stood in
his corner a picture of confidence
His smile seemed that Of one who
had brief and not unpleasant task
before him. He certainly was all set
to go, for just before time was called
he was heard to remark:
Lets get this thing over"
He measured the attendance, which
disappointed estimates by about so
per cent, with an appraising eye.
Dempsey presented a contrast. None
of the confidence of his training
camp statement appeared in his bear
ing. The man across from him out
weighed him 40 pounds and looked
as big and impregnable as a metro
politan bank building. The mood of
the challenger was plainly thoughtful
and more than one ringside gazer
whispered; "He's licked right now"
When they were introduced Jess
sauntered over in the cordial manner
Of one desiring to reassure a young
ster and took his hand in the friend
Hest way. Jacks handshake was
friendly, too, just then, but it was
the last token Of friendship, from
those loves. A minute or so later
they were using Willard for a chop
ping block and some in the crowd
were crying "Stop i'll Stop i'll It is
plain murder"
Denpsey's first effective blows,
and the ones which apparently set
tied Wizards fate, were right over
Jess shoulders to the Jaw, left to
the body and a right to the jaw. Jess
staggered. His right eve was closing
and he reeled, and the challenger,
with all the energy of his pulsing
youth, began hitting him at will.
The attendance was below expecta-
tons. Seats were built for $4,000 and
the estimate was that not more than
half of these were occupied. Specula-
tors lost heavily. They resold their
tickets at anything from SIS to SIS
under gate prices. No betting was re-
ported at the ringside, nor was there
much elsewhere SO far as could be
ascertained.
