DEMPSEY GETS GOOD
WORK WITH O'HARE
Harlem Middleweight Keeps
Champion on Keen Jump
for Two Rounds.

Speciai Despatch To THE NEW YORK HsRAtD.
ATLANTIC CITY, y. j.. June 1s.-Jack
Dempsey at last has found a sparring
partner to give him just the sort OF
workout he requires fleet and nimble
gambol punctuated with punches that
carry a certain percentage of pep. He
found his ideal to-day in Eddy O'Hare
who made his debut at the training
camp arena where he donned the gloves
with the champion for two ROUNDS.
O'Hare combines accurate hitting power
with cleverness and foot work. He
made hit with the sporting writer's
and the 500 spectators who viewed the
performance and at the close OF the
second round Dempsey was heard TO
say:
That's good Eddie: that's the kind
of stuff like"
The first round was we'll on its way
before the champion managed to hit
O'Hare. The bout was exactly the OPP
posite of that between Dempsey and
Battling Ghee yesterday. O'Hare knows
better than to rush Dempsey. He has
no fondness for the ropes.
O'Hare tapped Jack lightly few
times He made the champion puff and
perspire from his eXertons Jack had
the busiest few minutes of his sojourn
here trying to get close enough to the
willy Eddy to use a practical right or
left. Many times he struck at O'Hare's
jaw. but the blow dented the zephyrs.
on several occasions they mixed it.
but OHare didn't repeat Battling Ghees
folly Of engaging the champion in close
quarters He would come in, feint. dart
back. duck and make Dempsey employ
all the skill in his bag Of tricks TO cor
ner him, which the big fellow did three
I times.
OHare In the second waded in and
tried for the champions jaw. He missed.
and Dempsey returned the fire with n
I slap Of his half opened glove. which met
| with a counter from OHares right.
Dempsey reached OHare with a
merry clip to the ribs and left to the
face and O'Hare rested on the ropes for
a spell.
Dempsey boxed with a headguard un-
til his second round with OHare. when
he DOTTED it, The headpiece was loose
and bothered him.
Dempsey's partners al led him a
merry life to-day. Skill and strategy
stood out in bold relief. Not cEN that.

BY REFEREE DEBATE
Declares He Will Call Off

ATLANTIC CITY. y. j., June ls.-Jack
kearns, manager of the worlds cham
rion. Jack Dempsey, tonight threatened
to call off the championship match with
Georges Carpenter at Jersey City July
rather than submit to the dictation of
the New Jersey Boxing Commission over

Kearns declared that he had no objec-
tion to the selection of a referee holding
a New Jersey license, but that he would
insist csl having voice in the matter.
He asserted that he would be willing to
have the names OF every referee licensed
in the State thrown into a hat and al

the ring.
,"I will absolutely refuse to let Demp-

tensibly to witness some boxing bouts,

ISSUES LEAFLET
DispassiOnate Review of Cat Creek
Field States Facts Indicating
Great Future.

The Lewiston Chamber of Com
merce has issued a leaflet which reads
in part as follows:
"The facts concerning the Lewis
town oil fields. Stated by the Lewis
town Chamber of Commerce, April l,
1921.
"In printing this small leaflet, the
object of the Lewistown Chamber of
Commerce is to give to the public,
in so far as may be accomplished in
small space, a general settlement con-
corning the development of oil dis
covery and production in the Lewis
town oil fields, based on known facts
with respect to things already ac-
complished, and dealing with on
lecture only in so far as a consider
alton of the present situation is in
separately connected with prospects
for the future.
"The Cat Creek oil field, in Fergus
county, east of Lewistown, with 30
producing wells, is now producing
the highest grade of oil known to any
oil fields. Its extraordinary high
gasoline content, in the opinion of
some biologists, indicates that the
oil is migrant from a mother pool

men of the highest professional and
personal standing and ability, we cam
not but believe that all indications
point to the probability that the oil
structures in the territory naturally
tributary to Lewistown will eventually
produce so much oil that the present
excitement will be remembered as only
the pioneer beginning.
"The now famous Cat Creek struc-
ture is but Of many. We can men
ton also the Dog Greek, Arrow Creek,
Sager Canyon, Garneill, Giltedge, Box
Elder, Brush Creek, Button Butte,
Devils Basin, Howard Coulee, Big
Wall, Willow Creek, Square Butte,
Blood Coulee, Bailey W%oodhawk, Val
entine, Piper, Black Butte and Flat
willow as being considered prospect
ing ground by competent biologists.
Lewistown does not base it's hope of
an oil future on Cat Greek alone, even
though the contention be proved that
the high grade oil from those wells
indicates the presence of heavy ac-
c~umulations lower down or nearby.
"Oil makes some people very rich
with small investment. Therefore,
human nature responds avariciously
to the hopes inspired by an oil dis
covery. There have been dishonest
and incapable promoters connected
with the history of every oil field.
That does not mean that true and
honest men are now in the oil devel-
opement business. On the contrary,
it is by the faith and courage of such
men that the real development is
made possible, bringing riches out of
the ground for thousands of people
and creating employment for thou

PRESIDENT ON
ROAD BUILDING
States Receiving Federal Funds for
Highways Might Well Adopt
System Suggested

There is one phase of President
nestle reconstruction, the importance
of which should not be overshadowed
by what may be considered the major
problems Of the day, and that phase
deals with highway construction, and
the necessity for making some pro-
vision for the repair of the roads.
81 know of nothing more shocking
than the millions of public funds vast
ed in improved highways because
there is no policy of maintenance"
said the President in his address to
Congress. "The neglect is not uni
v~ersal, but it is very near it. There
is nothing the Congress can do more
effectively to end this shocking waste
than condition all Federal aid on pro-
visions for maintenance. Highways,
no matter how generous the outlay
for construction, a not be maintain
ed without patrol and constant repair.
Such conditions insisted on in the
grant of Federal aid will safeguard
the public which pays and guard the
Federal government against political
abuses, which tend to defeat the very
purposes for which we authorize Fed
eral expenditure"
The Importance of our highways as
feeders to the railroads, and as "the
smaller arteries of the larger portion
of our commerce." has long since been
appreciated, but in the process of cen
tralization which has been going on
during the past decade there has been
a decided tendency on the part of the
states to "let the Federal govern
ment do it." Since the previous adj
ministration was actively engaged in

part Of the states was encouraged
rather than discouraged, with the re-

and those who have travelled in that
country well know the virtue of French
highways. Germany maintained such
a system, and even Spain, benighted
as she is in many respects, maintains
what she terms the "caminero" sys-
tenn to keep her roads in good repair.
The Spanish system was adopted by
General Wood, when governor of Min
danao, and also while he was military
governor of Cuba. 1t employs a man
to take are of a certain mileage of

it is his duty to keep it metaled and

which receive Federal funds for road
building, could we'll adopt the system
as suggested by President Harding.
