So marked had been Renaults fac
ulty for eyading Dempsey's rushes
that more than one ringside observer
mad remarked: You see, that's wiiAk

He can keep away from Dempseys
rushes as long as Re wants"
Now. ! don't for minute want any
one to think that j am compsr ring
Jack Renault with Georges Carpen-
tier The Frenchman. from all have
heard and seen. is the fastest boxer
the champion ever has been called
upon to meet But the idea is this:
Dempsey in his early workouts had
been easy going, and wren Renault
kept away Dempsey was willing TO let
II go at that But on this particular
day of which i speak the champion
was out to show every one present
something. He had been criticized the
day before for working out sluggish
Iy. He tore into his sparring part
ners with such tigerish activity that

RenauIt Had No Chance.
Renault didn't have a chance to es-
cape Dempsey. He was cornered the
hrst time he tried to back away. He
couldn't escape from the fury of tre
champions attack. And this was be-
cause Dempsey had made up his mind

i haven't any idea how the French
What his plan of campaign ik I
oont think he will attempt to stand
toe to toe with Jack and slug. No
man living can do that with the
champion. The popular belief is that
tne Frenchman will try to keep away
ana STICK in the struggle as long as
ne can. j prefer TO alter that opin-
ION somewhat and say that Carpen-
uer will try to stick in the contest
oy staying away as long as Demp-
sey will let him.
Inough it's far cry from sparring

nauit to fight with Georges Car
penuer, the mode of procedure isn't
great deal different. Dempsey will

tast as he is reported to be. can keep
from mixing it with Jack for any
great amount of time.
Rest Will Not Hurt Jack.
Though there WAS more or less
groom around Dempsey admirers for
the past few days because of the re-
openihs OF the cut over Jacks eye,
neither the champion nor l are con-
cerned about it. The cut will have
had plenty of time to heal when
the champion takes UP boxing once
more. and there will be no letup in
his actual physical training. SO 1
can't see that the rest will hurt him.
IN l had II In mind to lay him off for
three or four days later on anyhow.
dempsey, the SYcelIepr in
which he new finds himself, needs
only a little boxing to put himself
right on edge for the defense OF his
title. He wasn't going to get that
good boxing until after June Is any,
how. SO these days of rest will not
be harmful
All the observers who have appear-
ed at our camp SO far have marveled
At Dempseys condition, and at his
frame of mind for this bout. The
champion is not in the least worried
Not that he regards the match as
soft one, or is taking IL easy Far
from it. Dempsey simply looks upon
the bout with Georges Carpenter
July as work that to be done and
done well. He takes il as matter
Of course that it is his part of the
AFFAIR to get into the fight and win as
quickly as possible. He is confident
that he will. But he is not overcon-
ident, and no matter what turn af-
fairs will take. the world champion
will be prepared.
