TO FIGHT AT
GAR Y, MAY z

The fistic fans around Chicago are all
primed for the reported fight which Is
to take place at Gary, Ind, between
Kid Norfolk, the champion dark
heavyweight scrapper and Jack Wilson,
a most worthy trial horse. Norfolk has
been engaged as head boxer in the Demp-
sey training camp and his work Is said
to be particularly adapted to the white
champions needs for his go against the
great Frenchman. Carpenter. Joe Jean
nette, who fought the Frenchman some
years ago, is officiating as head trainer
in the latter's training camp, and many
OF the wise ones predict that the foxy
Joes' advice will go long ways towards
aiding the foreigner to hold his own, il
not trot under the wire a winner, With
the well known ability OF Norfolk as a
.crapper, it is said that the most inn
portant part OF the Dempsey training
will be in private; the part of the camp
stunts intended for public gaze, will be
all stereotype and carefully rehearsed IN
advance Many experts believe Norfolk
capable OF snatching the crown from the
terrible Dempsey, and host OF the Nor
folk friends frown upon his willingness
to act as a sparring partner to the
champion in his workouts. They cite
the refusal of Harry Wills to offer him
self as training aid, and fans through
out the whole country agree with the
| Wills stand in the matter. One thing is
certain, if a negro boxer is an undesir-
able in a regular ring encounter, then
the headliners among the dark scrappers
are lowering their prestige as well as
lending valuable aid to the enemy, when
they go into the training camp offering
themselves as recipients OF the many
hard punches OF the Dempsey mitt. while
they act under instructions to pull their
best blows that the training fighter be
not injured. There has been a long
string of colored fighters in the past who
have offered themselves for slaughter in
the training camp, and from Bob Arm
strong's time on down to Big Bill Tate,
not one OF them has fought worth a
tinkers dam in a regular fight after the
training camp rough fare. Like Fulton,
whose great proves as fighter keeps
| him on the tabooed list of the head slam
mers, Norfolk is compelled to assume
various and many ticklish positions for
a livelihood, but he would make trem-
cndous and favorable impression upon
the whole fighting fandom if he point
blank refused the Dempsey assignment
as aid in the training camp stunts.
