SURPRISE IN WITNESSES
 FOR BASEBALL TRIAL

Chicago, July 1.-Announcement of 9 list of witnesses to be used by the state in the prosecution of the former White Sox players and the alleged gamblers charged with having been implicated in the 1919 baseball scandal today caused stir when it was discovered that the list contained the name of William Burns, former Chicago American play er
 For some time there has been much speculation as to whether Burns had turned states evidence He is the only one on the long list of witnesses who is actually under indictment.
 Surprise also was manifested at the appearance of the name of Joe Gedeon, former St. Louis player who was called before the grand jury but who was not indicted. The fact that the members O the grand jury which originally in vestigated the baseball scandal were in cluded in the list, made it appear that the state will try to get into the rec ords the confessions which were safc to have been made although later repud:at- ed by Joe Jackson, Eddie Cicotte and CIaud Williams.

such bombardment.
 Comparison of the Combatants.
 Considered in a general way, 1t may be said that Carpenter is the better and faster boxer both with glove and afoot, while Dempsey reverts to some extent to the older type of fighter al ways willing to take a blow in order to land one. If it should prove that tomor- rows encounter is contested along these lines. Dempsey will have the advantage of at least 20 extra pounds of weight be- hind his blows. While the gloves weigh eight ounces as required under the New Jersey boxing law, it is not thought that this will take much of the sting and power out of the drives of these two exceptional pugilists.
 Another advantage for Dempsey will be the fact that the bout will be fought in an 1S-foot ring thereby limiting to some extent the area available for Car pentier's flashing footwork Apparently the size of the ring has not in any way affected the confidence of the French man who has stated that he expects to win by a knockout. Dempsey also Is said to believe implicitly that he win stand over Carpenter while the latter is being counted out before the sched- uled 2 rounds are half completed.
 It is only by a knockout or a foul that the heavyweight championship can change hands. Under the New Jersey boxing laws. all bouts are limited to 12 rounds without official decision. While T. Harry ErtIe will be the third man in the ring, his sole duties will bn to see that the princinals and their seconds ob- serve the boxing code Tn case of a knockdown or knockout he will count over the fallen boxer until the expiration Of spproximately ten seconds. Should either man deliberately strike a foul blow or one of his seconds enter the ring during the progress of round, it will be within Ertle's province to declare the un- offending boxer a winner. Should the bout go the full 12 rounds. there cannot , be an official winner. Any decision which may be rendered as to the respective merits of the principals by newspaper writers, boxing experts or officials con- nected in any capacity with the contest will be purely personal opinions and without weight in official ring annals Dempsey and Carpenter, on arrival al the arena, will be taken to dressing rooms large and commodious, as are all other features of the structure. Demp- sey's room will be directly below Section A; Carpenters below Section E, in the i big stand. Each room is 20 feet square i fitted with lockers, rubbing benches bathing equipment and accommodations | for the handlers as well as for the con ! testants.
 The dozen preliminary boxers win oc l cupy a third dressing room similar tc | those occupied by the two main bou | principals, but located several section. | away from the others.
