injury TO his left arm and will not be

nice for the many feminine visitors at

back door and arrived at the gymnasium
unseen by those without.

DEMPSEY TO REST,
CARPENTER STICKS
TO HARD TRAINING
American Champion to Begin
Intensive Training Work
After a Weeks Loaf"
BOTH REPORTED NEAR FIT

by Associated Press to Every Evening
Atlantic City. May 2ss--With Jack
Dempsey rounding into fighting con-
dition almost too rapidly. Kearns decid-
ed today TO give him four days rest be-
ginning next Tuesday. After boxing to-
morrow and Monday Dempsey will lay
aside hts gloves, suspend Lis road work
and loaf until called upon to begin his
intensive training program a week from
today.
Dempsey could get himself ready
10 defend his title within six days,
"Kearns said today. "A lay OF next
week win put him on edge for the
final three weeks of training.
II want to add little weight to him
so he will be ready for the serious bust
ness OF training. He win scale around
the 1875 mark now and I hope he will
weigh around 200 week from today"
Dempsey started to ease off in his
training yesterday when he limited his
boxing to four rounds. taking on Jack
Renault and Leo Houck, in rotation.
Martin Burke, the New Orleans
heavyweight, probably will work with
Dempsey tomorrow or Monday. Burke
went to New York today to purchase
headgear to protect himself. Larry
Williams also will be ready TO face the
champion tomorrow.
Dempsey's wrist is bigger than his
ankle. His right wrist, according to
latest measurements is 9A inches; n
quarter of an inch larger than his
ankle and nearly two inches bigger than
the wrist of the average man. The
champions waist measurement. 33
inches. is evidence that he already is in
good condition.
Dempsey and Carpenter are alike in
at least one respect They both insist
of having the fssst Of food. To obtain
French dishes, cooked just as no likes
them, Carpenter brought chef from
Paris.
Dempsey also has his special cook.
She is Mrs. Lizzie Hutchinson, a
motheriy person. who serves the kind
of old fashioned meals Jack so greatly
relishes. The champion usually eats a
substantial breakfast. Hot waffles or
corn mullins, ham and eggs, and
potatoes, a cereal and milk or occasion
ally a little coffee. put him in the best
of humor for his days work
Mrs. Hutchinson serves all the meals
herself. If there is a particle of food
left on the plate, she gives the champion
a scolding and he usually replies by
telling her that there is no one except
his mother who can cook such meals.
a light lunch at noon generally con-
sists OF cold meats. cakes and tea. and at
six o'clock for dinner he eats roast beef
or steak. baked potatoes. salad and

NOT TO PARADE.
National Guard and World War Feter-
ans VIII Observe Day Otherwise.

ans VIII Observe Day Otherwise.
Due to a difference of opinion as 70
who should act as chief marshal of the
Memorial Day parade on Monday,
neither the National Guard nor any of
the military veterans organizations will
be in the line Of march. Statements to
the effect that these organizations had
withdrawn were corrected by the asser-
tion that they had never agreed to
participate and consequently could not
withdraw The former soldiers point
out that should they participate it
should be under military direction
They win observe the day otherwise.
Those in charge of the parade point
out that the honorary marshal is Past
Commander Robert Liddeli Of Snyth
Post, No. /, G.. A. r, and that the
younger man is merely taking the bur-
den of the work from his shoulders.
They claim this virtually places a vet
eran at the head of the parade.
