Mcleod made a great showing In
the tournaments in England. In the
British open he was thirteenth. In
the Glen Eagles and other tourns-

rank.
The slight Columbia player win be

Mcleod knows the Columbia eourse'
as no other player. II he should win
the national open here IL will be the
first time in the history of play that
a home pro has won the title on his
own course.
The return Of Mcleod Is looked for

because champions almost
without exception can hit. Jack Demp-
sey and Georges Carpenter have BOTH
proved themselves wonderful hitter,
Neither has shown himself able 10
take much. Carpenter has failed as
an absorber OF punches. Dempsey has
really never been punished much. He
has done most OF the punching HIM
self.

Well. II should be a sizzler from the

ing defense to the winds. II Car
pentier happens to receive one or two
of those terrific Dempsey wallops TO
the wind. he may slow up bit and
try to box. What success he will
have remains to be seen. Personally,
we don't think his left lab good
enough to keep Dempsey away.
II Carpenter happens TO connect
with a couple of solid rights to the
champions jaw, the latter may for
get everything save the danger of
losing his title. In that case he
should pile right into his opponent,
and the winner will be the first bloke
to land in the right place.

written about so much by European
experts, means nothing. Americans
have n habit, when in any kind of
a fight, of going right to the work
in hand and getting somewhere.
They waste no time thinking Of psy-
Geological causes and effects. And
Jack Dempsey today may be expected
to wade right in from the first gong
to knock out his man or be knocked
out.
CHAMP NO FANCY BOXER.
Ever see rat-terrier let loose at
wharf rat? Notice how he leaps
and rushes, this way and that, until
he has cornered his foe and got him
That's the way Dempsey acts in a
ring. There is no fancy boxing, no
posing. He Is all business. His head
is. swinging frem side to side and in
short half circles. roth hands are
moving. He is always In position to
hit with either hand. That's the way
he fought Jess Willard and that's the
way he'll fight Carpenter. IL is his
natural way of hghting, and a mans
natural way is his best.
From all accounts, Carpenters
method is vastly different. Allowing
for greater weight, he is said to move
around much like Johnny Dundee,
ieapins and jumping and crouching
and feinting with his head and hands.
Against slow w-footed. slow-thinking
Beckets, he must have looked like a
ring wizard. Whether or not he will
look so fast against Dempsey Is a
mystery until they meet today In
Tex Richards huge arena.
Carpenters speed should be in
evidence until Dempsey lands his
nrst bone-crushing right or left 20

nay he expected TO begin fading.

With 18-Foot
Ring

. JERSEY CITY, n. j., July g.
Despite the protests of his friends
Carpenter is satisfied with the
eighteen-foot ring in which the
big fight is to take place, he said
today. Carpenter has been train
ing in a sixteen-foot ring, which
was built small so that he would
have a chance to become accus-
timed to small enclosure.
Carpenter could have insisted
on either a larger or a smaller
size ring when the articles of
agreement were drawn, a clause
to that effect being included in
the agreement.

Dempsey is a real nghter. He has

hit with either hand and is good

What do the so-called experts
think of the battle today? Well,
no matter what they're writing,
they're ALI thinking Dempsey will
win. The majority expect the end
to come somewhere between the NTH
and seventh. We are stringing along
with a few who expect the hrst
round to settle the Frenchman, who
may by great and good luck last 10

Carpenter will manage to last
twelve rounds and look good enough
to get another bout, probably In

ought to be banished. We are all de.
nanding too much. We want our Ills
cured while we wait. We forget that
they are the product, not of q day, or
q month, or a year, but of several
years. Some of them, indeed, began
with the war seven years ago. -
We are apt to forget, too, that the
whole world is affected. There are ills
everywhere. No quick recovery is
possible anywhere. But there will be
recovery, and when it comes wesshall
share it. and help buttress it.
We are expecting a large export
