DEMPSEY CAREFUL
ABOUT RING RULES

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 1s.-UnIess
the British referees change their
style Of officiating. London will never
see Jack Dempsey, champion Of the
world.
Dempsey is a decisive fighter. He
believes in winning by the Knockout
route. His record proves that. A re-
cent statement made by Eugene Cor
ri, the foremost referee in Europe
and the hstic spokesman Of the Ma
tional Sporting Club. has made
Dempsey and his manager, Jack
Kerns, do some deep thinking.
Corri is reported as stating that
the National Sporting Club rules,
which virtually govern all the big
contests held in England, were
framed to develop and place a pre-
MUM on scientific boxing. In the
interview Corri is reported as say
ing IL he were a referee of a 20-round
bout eand one contestant had out
boxed the other three times in nine
teen rounds and then was sent to the
floor for the fun count, he would re-
ceive the decision. In other words.
the man who scored a knockout
would be the loser.
II those rules had prevailed in
this country James J. Jehries would
never have been worlds champion.
On June 9, 1899, the late Bob Fitzsim-
mons, who had won the title from
James J. Corbett. March II, 1897. met
Jeffries. For ten rounds Ista out
boxed Jeffries two to one, thsn his
hands went back on him, and he was
knocked out in the eleventh round
Later, May II, 1900, Corbett met JEFF
fries in a twenty-five round bout at
Coney Island. For twenty-one
rounds the former California bank
clerk made the eK-boiler maker look
like a novice. Then he. got care
less and in the twenty-third round
slipped intot a jolt on the jaw and
was counted out.
According 70 Eugene Corri's defni-
tion OF the British rules Corbett won
the decision by a mile. Champion
Jeffries would have been dethroned.
In fact, Fitz could have been given
the decision over Jeffries without any
stretch OF imagination IL knockouts
do not count.
So no one will blame Jack Dempsey
and Jack KeaTns if they insist before
signing articles for a bout in London
that an international Interpretation Of
the rules to govern the contest form
part OF the contract.
II the winner Of the Beckett-Car-
pentfer bout cannot be induced to
come to America, Dempsey would not
be averse to "crossing the pond" But
the financial inducements must be
right, and, above all, the rules must
be fair and square. and not discount
the ability OF the man who can punch.
