MUST KEEP
JACK SMILING

ATLANTIC CITY, n. J.. June 2-The
task Of keeping Jack Dempsey mentally
1T through the restless days prior TO the
big fight at Jersey City requires more
Judgment and tact than the compare
lively simple process Of conditioning him
physically.
Dempsey today is where he should be
about ten dayes prior to the battle. phys
ically. He Is not more than ten pounds
above what he will weigh for Carpenter.
Most Of the avoirdupois Is clinging to his
mid section and a few days Of intensive
training VIII melt II of. When he steps
into the ring al Boyle's Thirty acres. "
Dempsey win be physically At. but what
will he be mentally Some say this and
some say that.
Without pretending 10 possess occult
knowledge Of what effect the undoubted
strain Of the next thirty days will have
on the champions mind, some venture
that he will pRcs through the nervous
stage some time within the next twenty
days and be the Dempsey Of Toledo
when he faces the French flash.
Already there are many little evidences
Of Jacks irritability. He hasn't shown
any peevishness In his public work outs
or In his association with the newspaper
men, but now and then he gets fused
up about little things that ordinarily
would not concern him. Don't imagine
that he Is crab, or anything Ike II, for
he isn't. Perhaps no champion ever
stood the marking time process better
than Dempsey.
Signs OF restlessness, however, mea n
that Dempsey is already in great con-
dition and the biggest question from
now on will be how to keep him cheer
full and occupied without letting him
work too hard.

Waning Youth Casts
Shadow of Doubt on
KubGne's Standing
Feather Champ Faces Danger
of Dropping LaureLs After
Brilliant Career.

Nine years ago, on George Wash
ington's birthday, Johnny Kilbane won
the featherweight championship Of the
world from Abe Attell. The boy from
Cleveland he was then % years old, beat
the thin-legged, slippery, cunning chap
from San Francisco in twenty rounds. 1t
was a real battle and in the end Referee
Charley Eyton gave Johnny the decision
over Abe Attell.
This year, the ninth anniversary Of his
great victory, 1stic authorities are
mentally comparing the form of the chnl-
lengers Of Johnny Kilbane TO that OF the
Kilbane of just a few short years back.
They forget that this Kilbane-the Kill
bane Of few years ago-ls no more, that
the Kilbane of today is past 80, and has
taken on the weight of ease and idle
ress.
They remember him as a slim, active,
clever young champion Of the world, and
naturally against this young fellow the
present day crop Of feathers may not
seem to class.
But, the slim, active KfTbane has passed
away. In his place stands a gray-haired'
rather pudgy man who has done little
boxing for a long time and whose eye
cannot possibly be as keen as the eye OF
the Kilbane Of a few years back, and
whose former skill has undoubtedly been
dulled.
Meantime, these present day cha1lengers
are strong rugged young fellows, who
are boxing steadily and gathering knowi-
edge Of their craft every day. The first
one that gets Kilbane in the ring over a
long route. granting that he is one OF
those who are in the first fight of chal-'
lengers, probably will be the new feather
weight champion Of the world.
The authorities look at Seiger, Beecher,
Vulgar CLANCY, De Foe and the rest, and
wag their heads and say that such as
these will never do against the skillful,
experienced Cleveland man. They have
nothing of Johnny's old form. They cam
not hit like Johnny, and so forth. Then
some night they will see john in the
ring against one of the rugged, ambitious
youngsters, and it win be the old story.
It is not in the fstic cards that man
can lay OF as long as Knbane at his
age, take on weight and develop soft
muscles, and then hope to compete with a
strong, fast young fellow.
Incidentally, no one knows this any
better than johnny kilbsne. The feather
! weight champion is no fool.

NEW YORK, June 3-Just as many
