how 10 size up a man

jumped into prominence. was
with him at Toledo. I boxed with
him when ne was training for Bren-

Atlantic City. II the champion has
temperament subject to nerves
don't know him.
II Dempsey is Kissed and booed
when he enters the ring I don't be-
lieve he will hear IT, When he steps
inside the ropes he is transformed
from a smiling and good natured
man into almost a savage and he
doesn't hear a thing from outside.
One thing is sure and know this.
II the crowd is hostile toward the
champion II will not undermine his
morale or spirit II will put the
fires OF hell in him and instead OF
helping Carpenter by its attitude the
crowd will speed his downfall.
haven't seen Dempsey this week
but 1 know that ne Is not worrying.
OF course he viii be nervous SO
will the Frenchman.
1 said last week that Dempsey
would win in three rounds. still
believe IT, I might be induced 20
change my opinion when they enter
the ring. When I see them lined up
ready for the gong 1 might change
my mind and say Dempsey would

NEW YORK. July 1. Omitted

II will be n the first round. perhaps
not till the third but not later than
the fifth.
That's our opinion after watch
ing the opponents up until within a
few hours Of the big fight
It seems that Carpenters stock
has jumped greatly in the last 4s
hours. Tales Of the worry and
anxiety that Jack Dempsey is going
through apparently have caused
some Of his hackers to seek lower
odds than three TO one.
II is hard 10 believe when one
knows the champion. that worry is
eating into his flesh 80 that ne will
weigh less than the Frenchman
when they get into the ring tomor-
row.
A lot Of shrewd willy things have
been credited to Francois Des-
camps. Jack Kearns is no yearling
as a manager and it looks like he
is doing a little propaganda work
himself.
We do not under estimate the
ability Of the Frenchman in pick
ing Dempsey to win. Carpenter is
smart. fast boxer and can hit-a
slow moving man. He will hit
Dempsey. OF course, because IL is
we'll known that the champion can
be hit. But Carpenter cannot hit
him with enough power TO knock
him out. II the Frenchman elects
10 run he will prolong his downfall
but Dempsey will catch him. In
real ring speed the champion is al
most as fast as the challenger.
