DESCHAMPS
HE HAS SEVERAL
OFFERS FROM US,
Match Will Go to Promoter
Who Secures Dempsey's
Signature First-Kearns
Fav0rS RiCkard.

Paris, Feb. 24.-That a fight be-
tween Georges Carpenter and Jack
Dempsey for the heavy weight
championship of the world, will go
to whatever promoter succeeds in
signing Dempsey to a contract, is
the gist of an interview with M. Des-
champs, Carpenters manager, which
will be published Wednesday morn
ing by Sporting, weekly publica-
ton.
II have given my signature to c.
B. Cochrane of London, Theodore
Vienne of Paris. William Fox of
New York and Tex Rickard, as I
shall give it to any one who shall
bring me sufficient guarantees, al
ways, however, with the provision
that Dempsey's signature /be OBJ
tained," said M. Deschamps.
"Mr. Cochrane is personal friend
of mine. That is why gave him
the preference after Carpenters
match with Beckett. But up to this
date he has been unable to secure
Dempsey's signature. Meanwhile |
have received telegram from Jack
Kearns, manager of Dempsey, say
ing that Dempsey had not signed
with any one. He also advised me
strongly to deal with Tex Rickard
and asked me to go to the United
States, where he said Kearns and
Rickard were awaiting me. Carpen-
tier and | will leave March IS.
81 am not forgetting that Coch-
rane holds Carpenter practically
bound until the end of the year, but
inasmuch as he has not succeeded
in securing Dempsey's signature and
when he realizes that it is impos-
sible, he is too good sport to stand
in our way of putting the fight
through, because, should Dempsey
sign with either Rickard or Fox, the
contract Cochrane has with US be-
