IS Kearns Denies Charges Against Dempsey
Molineaux Claims Right
 to Meet Cribb Second Time
Thinks That Victory of Englishman Was Fuke-Friends Back Him Up-Defeats Rmmer-Remat- shed Against Cribb
By JAMES J. coRDETr

Editors Note: This is the fourth of series of six articles that deal with the memorable battles fought in Europe more than a century ago by Thomas Molineaux, the first American tighter to invade foreign territory in quest of worlds championship. The next chapter will appear tomorrow)
 A few days after being defeated by Tom Cribb in their sensational battle, Tom Molineaux the American negro gladiator, sent the following letter to his conqueror:
 My friends think that had the weather of Tuesday been not so unfavorable, and had l not suffered the misfortune to severely injure by head in the fall against the stake, I might have won my battle with you. I therefore challenge you to d second meeting at any time within two months, for such sum as the gentle men who have confidence in me may be pleased to arrange.
 q cannot omit the oportunity of ex- pressing the confident hope at this time that the circumstance of my being of different color to that of the people among whom l have sought protection will no in any way operate to my preju- dice''
 AFTER NEW BOUT
 Cribb did not make an immediate re-
 
 fact that he had received such letter from Molineaux. But number of thor oughbred English sportsmen. who sym pathized with Molineaux, and were will- ing to back him in another fight had made a copy of it. This, in due time, they turned over to one of the London newspapers which gave it space.
 And then strange thing happened. :. The English sporting public which had | clamored so loudly for Cribb to whip ! Molineaux began to agitate for another ! chance for. him. The splendid and cour- l ageous fight which .Molineaux had twaged Illad won for him admiration from peo- pie who were prejudiced against him. l And even the newspapers joined in the general clamor for another meeting, point ing out that although Cribb had won. ii | was, at best fluke triumph, and that Cribb had not demonstrated any real su'
 peTsority.
 On January g, 1S11 benefit was give for Cribb. Among the participants wes
 a youngster named Rimmer, whose bat ting in an exhibition contest that nigh greatly impressed the champion. So aftel
 Rimmer had won his match, Cribb an nounced: .sn
 'Rimmer appears to be really mar
 vicious fighter. l think he can whil
 Molineaux. So sure am I that I vii make this condition: l will bet $500 tha Rimmer whips Molineaux and if h. , doesn't and Molineaux wins decisively, will agree to give the negro anothe | fight with me.

United States May
 Be Represented At
 The Henley Regatta

The United States probably will be represented at the Henley rowing re- gatta in England next summer by crew from the Union Boat Club of this city, but the selection of June 30 to July as dates for the meeting, which was announced today, is expected to re- strict American entries.
 / Yale and Harvard Universities, it was learned today, have had under consideration a proposal to send their
 varsity eights across to compete for
 the Grand Challenge cup now held by
 Harvard as result of the victory or
 Crimson crew at Henley in 1914. With
 the annual e-Harvard regatta to be
 held at New London on June 25, how
 ever, selection of June 30 as the open
 ing Henley date was said by Harvard rowing authorities to make it doubtful whether either university would be represented.
 The Union Boat Club already has set about preparation of crew to chal- lenge for the Grand cup and may. also
 send individuals as competitors in the
 diamond souls event. Lothrop With
 ington former Harvard captain, now
 captain of the Union crew, said today 30 men had appeared as candidates. The
 squad includes Lund, stroke of the
 Harvard eight which won the Grand cup in 1914; Kreger, coxwain of that crew; Whitman, Cutler and Murayr who explained Harvard eights of recent years; Lothrop Wilmington and his brother Major Paul Wilmington, coacn and stroke of the A. E. F. crew which rowed at the last Henley and with the inter-allied event sat Paris last year Amory Jeffreys, member of the A. E F. crew, and Shoemaker, formerly o1 University of Pennsylvania.

KEARNS SAYS JACK
 WAS NOT ASLACkER
Claims Dempsey Did His Bit At Home, Raising Funds
 for Charities

Los Angeles. Cal, January 14.- Denial of charges that Jack Dempsey was draft -dodger' 'and"slacker'' and defense of his conduct during the war was made by Jack Kearns, Dempseys s manager. in signed statement issued here today.
 .spempsey was not draft-dodger during the war" Kearns statement savs. "Any one who makes such charge cannot support it with facts.
 when the draft came Dempsey was placed in Class A because he was mrried. and in addition was supporting mother. an invalid brother and sis ter. Dempsey made no claims TOT exemption.
 sometime later the draft board read iusting classifications placed Dempsey in Glass Ali, but almost immediately afterwards put him in Glass 2-B. He remained there during the rest of the war If the conflict had lasted lew weeks longer it seems certainty he would have been in service"
 Kearns recounted Dempsey's services as riveter in Philadelphia and Seattle shfpyards and added:
 He was also appearing in fistic en- counters for benefits of the numerous war charities. By this means, aproxi- mately s10O0o0 was raised for the var ious war funds"
 Dempsey paid travelling expenses and fought without remuneration, kearns said and frequently was broke" as a consequence.
 Those who are charging Dempsey with being stacker because he worked in the shipyard and helped to raise nearly s10o,000 for the various war charities" the statement con cluded, "are smudging the reputation of every other exempted man who served the nation in the army at home'

 CRIBB BEATS REMMER
 But Moineaux, ignorant and illiterate' though he was in the affairs of the world. was crafty as fighter. He figured that. . Cribb would school Rimmer in turning- aside the attack that Molineaux had used. in the Cribb fight. So the negro per- fected an entirely new style for the Rim-- mer contest.
 Rimmer opened up with flash and a . whirl of. speed. He attempted to. beat Molineaux at his own game-rushfng ] And so he played right into Molineaux' $, hands. The negro met him, toe-to- toe.' and IM the slugging match that followed Rimmer was novice.
 Molineaux held the advantage from the. very start His blows landed oftener than Rimmers and with far more crush-- ing force. Before the second round tAds ended it wasn't case of who woud' win-7it simply became a question of how. long Rimmer would last. And the total time something like 15 minutes, with Rimmer clinching and holding as much as possible during the, | last 10

They had seen him in This four fights, and they had seen enough Ito decide them against him as a foenan, I So for a second time Molineaux de- clared: g sa@ VI
