There are certain blows which
are peculiarly effective In boxing.
Some Of these blows, in my judG-
ment, would b. more effective
against Dempsey than against Car
pentier. while others would b
more effective against Carpenter
than against Dempsey, and I'll Try
to explain Why.
WAat . Kneck.Out Blew Deea
Every one has heard Of the solar
plexus blow. The solar plexus u Z
kind OF abdominal brain, . sub-sta-
ton Of the autonomic or so-called
sympathetic nervous system. sit
uated Just above and behind the
stomach. It freely communicated
By sympathetic nerve nbres with
other solicitations Of the same sys-
tenn in the abdomen and In the
chest All Of these sub-stations are
concerned in the control Of such
functions as digestion. circulation
and other involuntary body func-
lions. Now q sharp blow upon the
region commonly called the pit d
the stomach Is . shock to the solar
plexus and produces that peculiar
sickening faintness or goneness
which nearly every one has expert
enced at one time or another. i
would naturally put boxer out d
q contest or make him incapable To-
the moment Of further pardcipa
ton. l have an idea that Carpen
tier could withstand such q blow
better than Dempsey, for the reason
that the French champion seeml
better equipped with muscle ovel

LOOMS up FOR J
JACK DEMPSEY
Takes Workout b Secret b ca,
vince Himself His Condition
is Good,

Atlantic City, N. J.. June H.
Jack Dempsey today is within Z
hours from the end Of his training
grind. The champion Is scheduled
to do his last boxing in public thu
afternoon and tomorrow. After Tia
secret workout with the heavy.
weights yesterday, Dempsey vii
box the lighter men in camp In the
two final sessions with the glovea
The champion and his handlers
had no explanation to offer today
for the secret workout late yester-
day afternoon when he toiled for S
minutes at top speed. Dempsey
worked out in the stuffy old han
gar q quarter of . mile back Of his
camp after announcement was made
that he would take a day of.
Two correspondents. however,,
managed to get by the guarded
gates along with Battling Nelson,
former lightweight champion.
Perhaps the resasSn the title
holder decided to work in secret
was to satisfy himself that he had
not gone stale or slowed up in ais
boxing or footwark. Some noted
trainers and athletes have been
rather strong In their criticism
that they believed Dempsey was too
finely drawn. that he had over
trained and was on the verge Of 60
ing stale. But the champion, By
his workout yesterday, satisfied
those privileged to watch him that
he is at the top Of his form and no
danger of going stale.
Dempsey had not finished driving
powerful rights and lefts into the
heavy felt-stuffed bag before he
broke out in Precipitation. He
started his practice with three
rounds of punching the light bag
and then waded into the heavy
swinging target. He worked for
nearly an hour with only intervals
of 30 seconds between three min
ute rounds, going two each with
Eddie O'Hare and Larry Williams.
O'Hare, who boxed the first two
rounds, was SO tired at the finish
that he sat down and rested for q
few minutes before going to the
showers. His face was puffed aad
his ribs were sore from the punch
ing Jack gave him Dempsey bat
tered Williams with less considers
ton than the veteran sparring mate
desired. He confined his blows to
the body. forcing Williams to grunt
with pain and retreat
