The monotony Of the training camp

q foe whose real ability was deep.
ring. The champion has his own ideas
Of scclusion and privacy, and he is
practicing them religiously.
The titleholder spent yesterday mo-
toring about the city and surrounding
suburbs. Dempsey. according to Kearns,
left his quarters at the Hotel Belmont
carly in the morning and did not return
until il was time to retire last night.
There was no announcement of the
champions plans Yesterday. His i'm
mediate itinerary is uncertain. He is
just enjoying himself quietly, without
ostentation, adjusting himself to the re-
dictionary conditions consequent to a
battle Of such Importance. Kearns said
the champion was motoring with friends
yesterday and visited Jersey City to
pay his respects to Mayor Frank Hague.
Where Dempsey went after the visit
kearns didn't know. The manager de-
clared vaguely that "the champ is out
riding in the country
He has not yet. in fact. seriously
considered any proposition. He is just
recovering from the strain Of the big
fight. The champion, Kearns said. has
earned rest and that Is the first thing
to be considered. After that may come
the different offers for work, and prop
ositions for the defense Of the title, to
which numerous boxers aspire.
Kearns is prepared to arrange a
match Immediately. IL proper induce
ments are forthcoming from any of the
country's promoters. He is not partic-
ular whom Dempsey boxes next. Just so
long as the remuneration Is proper and
the opponent agreeable to the public.
Dempsey will be ready for another
battle on Labor Day. Kearns leans to
a return skirmish with the husky Bill

CARPENTER MUST
TAKE LONG REST
Frenchman Will Hardly Be jr
Condition to Meet Gibbons
on Labor Day
MAY GO HOME IN MEANTIME

New York. July 5.-Tex Rickard's
plan to bring Georges Carpenter and
Tom Gibbins together on Labor Day in
bout for the light heavyweight cham
pionship Of the world is not likely to be
realized on that particular day.
The French boxer. who now holds the
light heavyweight title. was advised
yesterday by his physician not to at
tempt any boxing for the next six weeks
or he will risk the danger of per-
manently injuring his right thumb.
At the end Of the time stipulated the
physician believes that Carpenter will
feel no Ill effects from the fracture
sey at Jersey City Saturday.
Manager Francois Descamps esti-
mated yesterday that 1t will be about
twelve weeks before Carpenter will be
ready for his next opponent in an
American ring.
There must be six weeks Of rest. nc
cording to the Doctors orders, and then
Georges would need about six weeks Of
training to be in the best possible con-
dition for Tom Gibbons or any other
opponent" explained the little mana
ger through Trainer Gus Wilson, serv-
ing as interpreter.
''That means that twelve weeks must
elapse before Georges will again appear
in a ring. This program would keep
him out Of the ring until early Octo-
Der. There is a possibility, Of course,
that his hand may be all right again be-
fore the first six weeks have elapsed.
in which event he might be able to box
in September against Gibbons, but at
this time we cannot figure on doing
anything except following the doc
tors orders"
The idea Of a Carpenter Gibbons
bout appeals strongly to Descamps, who
plans to have a conference with Tex
Richard at Madison Square Garden this
afternoon. Whether he will receive n
direct offer for Georges to book up with
the St. Paul light heavyweight is not
certain, but this appears to be the next
logical bout for Carpenter.
He could remain in his native coun
try for three weeks and then return
to begin training for Gibbons. Brennan
or whoever may be picked as his next
opponent. Asked IL he would return to
Manhasset to train for his next bout,
Descamps said that would be up to the
people owning the training quarters
Descamps will accompany Carpenter
when the latter returns to France.

Rommell and Naylor operating on the
