NEW YORK, March IA veteran
Nobserver Of ring affairs says that
Jess Willard and Jack Dempsey, the
two heavyweights claiming the worlds
championship, are not making money
as fast as did the heavyweight cham
pions Of only a decade ago.
Willard and Dempsey might have
done better recently but for the fact
that they asked more for a bout be-
tween them than any Of the fight
clubs Of the present day were really
willing to give.
There has been no vigorous COM
petition on the part OF fight clubs in
recent years to land men Of the cali
Der Of Willard and Dempsey. The
club managers and those back Of them
have been prone to claim that the
demands OF Willard and Dempsey
were beyond them. These club man
IDENTIFY lost sight OF the proposition
that competition in boxing as well as
in any business is all right.

In New York, II one Of the cham

were disappointed.
Liberal percentages were allowed
to the principals, and they abused the
public's encouragement and patronage
