Maurice Looks for
 Kayo From Dempsey

Maurice Goldstein is another Bir- minghammer who thinks Georges Carpenter will be as close to the canvas as an oil painting at Jersey City July 2, when he meets Jack Dempsey, and Maurice is so popped up over the fight that he is making his plans to go to the scrap on the special train, which is being run out of Birmingham by Paul Taylor and Gene Henry. Maurice thinks Jack will apply she kayo to the Frenchmau.
 MT. Taylor stated Thursday that six more reservations for the trip to Jersey City came in at the court house Thursday morning, and added that the quota for the trip was rapidly being filled. This means that the fan who Is contemplating going to Jersey to witness the biggest in- ternational sport attraction ever staged had best list his name with Messrs. Taylor and Henry before the train is filled up and the special of fer no longer holds good.

JACK DISPLAYS
 FIRST CURIOSITY CONCERNING CARP

Atlantic City, June 9.-Jack Demp- sey displayed his curiosity for the first time today to learn the fight ing style of Georges Carpenter, his opponent in the worlds heavyweight championship contest at Jersey City. July 2.
 Dempsey sought this first hand in- formation from newspaper corre- spondent and old time friend who had just arrived from a weeks stay in the French boxers camp. The heavyweight champion wanted to know if Carpenter fought from a crouch or hit from standing up position and the position from which he started the dangerous righthand punch.
 from a standing position, rather than crouch, Dempsey asked: "Is he hard to hit? If can hit him can lick him."
 Is Confident
 Dempsey was told that Carpen- tier was a sharp, accurate hitter and was liable to whip anybody he could reach with the first punch. The champion, after thinking for a sec ond, remarked that he had plenty of speed himself and was hitting with greater force than ever.
 Dempsey's workout in his indoor arena this afternoon was no differ ent' from yesterdays, although he fought the heavy sand bag from a crouch instead of a standing posi- tion. Dempsey worked at top speed for 35 minutes drubbing the punch ing bag for four rounds, the heavy bag for four, and two of shadow boxing.
 "Spy' for Georges
 Jack Curley, who is regarded as Carpenters American representa- tive, arrived at camp just as Demr sey was finishing his workout. Cur ley sTnilingly announced himself as a spy for the Carpenter camp Dempsey was steaming with perspir- ation and was just pulling on his sweater. so Curley did not have an opportunity to see him in action. York admirers who presented Demp- sey with a gold case in which to carry his Elk mbership.
 The plan to have Dempsey resume boxing or Saturday was switched to- night. The champion may not put the gloves on until Sunday. The cut over his left eye is healing rapidly.
 Jack. Kearns, manager of Demp- sey, announced tonight that the champion would lay off tomorrow, doing no work whatever. Dempsey will drive his car to Camden, N. J. 60 miles distant, to get his Belgian police dog, Sophie Ginsberg, which was left with veterinary a week ago for treatment.
