The June is meet, although it is
the initial effort of the associat ton.
will bring into competition ma
jority of the best individual track
men OF the country. Approximately
100 colleges in all sections will be
represented by about 500 athletes.
Eastern entries probably will be
fewer than those from other sections.
but the scarcity in numbers will be
somewhat Offset by the caliber of tho
men who will make the trip west.

testant in the Olympics, will head the
list of Eastern stars. The Bukor twins

Dempsey Says
Nothing in Stories
Secret Training

Atlantic City, n. j., June 1.-THE
mo training" sign probably will re-
main hung up at Jack Dempsey's
camp until Thursday or Friday &C
cording to indications today when the
worlds heavyweight champion will
swing back into his conditioning
grind with the prospects of resuming
boxing along with the other gymna-
SUM routine. Until Dempsey takes
up the full training program again,
the public will be denied admittance
to the camp.
Dempsey explained the mystery
concerning his lay-off by saying that
he was so thoroughly satisfied with
his condition that he thought a lay
off of three or four days would do
him good. He appeared to be amused
at reports that the camp had been
closed to the public so he could en-
gage in secret training.
Il don't know where they get the
idea Of this secrecy thing" the cham
pion said. II don't need any training
at all this week, much less secret
training I shall start in late this
week and keep it up to the finish. I
never felt better in my life and I
never was in such good condition
three weeks before match, not ex-
cepting my contest with Willard"
For a time yesterday even newspa-
permen were barred from the camp
because Dempsey suddenly developed
a crouch.
Manager Jack Kearns is taking
Dempsey's cranky streak with a
smile. He regards it as good sign
that Dempsey rapidly is getting into
his fighting condition. It was recalled
that Jim Jeffries acted much the
same way when he was getting in
shape for an important fight
Dempsey did absolutely no work
yesterday despite reports of secret
training. He loafed around camp,
played cards and took a stroll down
town in the evening.
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1921-06-15

he has better than an even chance 10
win. If willingness, a clear eye and
deadly right hand coupled with
speed and endurance can win, Georges
thinks he win be the worlds cham
pion.
He realizes that Dempsey will be
the best man he has ever met, but
notwithstanding he is going in de-
termined to do his best and if he loses
he will take it like man. Carpenter
always before his big fights has eX-
pressed something OF the sort | have
just quoted and invariably his predic
ton has come true, although in many
cases We have disagreed with him.
I'm the fight with Bombadier Wells,
personally thought that Georges
would be battered to a pulp and ad-
vised Deschamps not to consent to
the match. But Georges settled the
whole thing in the very words he has
spoken with regards to the Dempsey
fight. In that fight, Georges went
down for the count of nine in the
first round and when he came to his
corner said his chances still were ev
en-. He went down three times for the
count of eight in the second round.
The third was neutral and he knocked
out Wells in the fourth. When he
came to his corner then he said:
L had an even chance and | took
it,"
Today, Carpenter will take his duly
prescribed trip to the golf course and
hen will work on the road for a while.
There was no sparring scheduled for
today. although Georges intimatcd
that he might want some of this
work late this afternoon.
