ed Fulton NO M0tch For Another Bout With Dempsey
Cdrpentier- Dempsey Fight
 M Europe N0zU Proposed

New York, Jan. 14-Ring follow fers. conceding with Tex Rickard that another match in America between Jack Dempsey and Georges Carpen- inclined to believe today that such a scrimmage might be staged abroad with fair profit.
 There have been reports from time to time that the Frenchman again might like to face Dempsey and this is confirmed by dispatches from Car pentier's camp abroad. after his vic tory over Cook. the Australian heavy weight. DempSey's manager said thu champion was ready to defend his title any time the guarantees were posted.
 Rickard admitted that there would be no money in another Dempsey Carpenter battle - at least in the United States.
 But abroad?
 Carpenter is still the super-fghter of Europe, having promptly disposed of all his English, French and While the F'renchman's decisive de- feat by Dempsey came as something Of surprise to Europe, he has said that if he were to meet the American again, he would adopt different diff ferent ring tactics. He indicated he would box at longe range and seek to wear down his heavier opponent to point where a knockout could be reSAANtSo "iII4OuI ILS peru Ol an a toe to toe miXup.
 Dempsey Would Be Strong Gard.
 Realizing the boxing skill, speed and footwork of Carpentier many of his supporters abroad are inclined to believe that such a ring campaign might succeed. Dempsey's appear ance in a foreign ring might prove a strong card, for he would be at least an even money favorite against Car pentier whereas in the past the Frenchman has ruled long odds-on favorite in his fights with Bomba- dier Wells. Beckett, Cook and other heavies.
 If Georges stuck to his proposed plan of boxing Dempsey at long range. it is probable that European spectators would witness a longer contest than any he has yet partici- Dated in.
 Owing to the serious financial con- ditions abroad the attendance and gate receipts would fall far below those in Jersey City. Dempsey, how ever, has no adequate opponent for next summer and might be willing to box abroad for considerable less than he received from Rickard for facing Carpenter.

Bridgeporters There.

Srld9eIOrCeFS HhSfV.
 About thirty Bridgeport fans were at the ringside and cheered on Le- vinsky, their former townsman-
 LevinsI1y made Q. gallant effort to retain his title, but the speed. V1gor and power of the younger man were too much for the courag geous but aged boxer. Tunney, showing the best form he has yet displayed in recent montbs, out-boXed, out-hit and out generated the clever and resourceful Levinsl1y.
 The new champion had his oppon- ent in serious trouble several times during the 12 rounds. and one or two occasions the Battler had difficulty in staving off a knock out.
 The Batt1er sealed 1761A pounds, but as Tunney weighed only 172 pounds, three pounds below the limit, his acquirenent of the title was en- tirely legal.
 Tunney Bombards Body.
 Tunney, hitting straight and hard with both hands, landed smashing blows to Levtnslxy's body with his punishing left that drew blood and puffed up the nose and eyes of the champion. Devinsky rallied at times and carried the fight to his opponent against the Battler. and usually sent the Battler back to his corner tired man.
 There is small doubt that Tunney will eventually get a match with Car pentier, who holds the light heavy weight championship of the world. Some question was raised as to the transfer of the title owing to the fact that Levinsl1y was pound and half above the light heavyweight limit of 175 pounds.
 FuIton's Poor Showing.
 If the improvement in Fred Full toms fighting form was accurately measured by his drawn battle with little Bartley Madden at Madison Square Garden, then the tall pIasterer reach of Jack Dempsey and Harry Wills. F'u1ton's performance was sad dening. With advantage in weight of 37 F pounds, six inches in height not only to stop the little chap but was himself on the verge of a knock out in the tenth round.
 Fulton was slow. clumsy and tinnid throughout the contest and was very tired at the bell in at least four osf the rounds
 Madden. win bulldog courage, car ried the fight to his giant opponent Although handicapped by cuts over both eyes. he continued a furious on- slaught from the first gong to the last. Madden's attack was in the form of swim gs, many of which 1and- ed flush on F'ulton's jaw. Beginning with the third round. Fulton used his left to the face and right uppercut to the chin with effect Yet the little chap made so gallant a fight against great odds that the decision Of draw was justified.
 Record Crowd.
 More than 14.00O persons, the 1arg- ison Square Garden. witnessed the bouts. The net receipts were $3S.- 444.60. The number of persons who paid to see the contests was 5S266.

WATERBURY AFTER Ex-BIG LEACUER

New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox and now a member Of the Buffa- To team of the International League, is a possibility for the Brasscos next year.
 Only a possibility. however. There are so many strings on him that it will be hard to land him. NeVerthe- dickering for his services If he is ob- tained, he will most likely have to be purchased.
 That "GilP' is still somewhat of an outfielder is revealed tby the fact that he hit for .314 last season. He made twenty-eight doubles and seventeen triples and one home run, his num- Der of total bases being 266.
