M'Auliffe Declares Demp-

BY JACK McAULIFFE

NEW YORK. Sept. 1O.-Jack
IN Dempsey. in almost every re-
spect, is not the same Dempsey who
fought Willard and Carpenter. The
change in him Is most apparent 10
those who have known him wei.
and II is tho cause OF concern 10
many Of his friends.
When Dempsey was training at
Toledo. he was untroubied, full OF
fun and life. Now he seems to be
much more settled than increasing
years should warrant. We all know
that youth declines with each year.
but Dempsey has grown old too
soon. His actions gave me tho inn
preston that he has some doubts
that he Is as good as he used TO be.
once a fighter gets bothered about
these doubts, he is thru. II Is not
cowardice. but II is n lack Of conf.
dence that Ia even more dangerous
than timid heart.
Since returning from Saratoga.

pounds. and that he will enter the

FIRPO GLAD
YOUNG BOB
WILL HELP

EIRPo seems elated because the son
l. OF Bob Fitzsimmons will help him
train. Some people who do not keep
close tab on fights and fighters may
agree with Firpo in thinking that
the younger Bob will be Il great help.
But the fact Is that the boy" as
the elder Bob called his son, cannot
help E'irpo much. because he isn't
much as a fighter himself.
= The elder Fltz was a terrific and

ABOUT $1,000 PAID
in TO See fight
Dempsey Will Receive Approx.
mately s450,000 as His Share
Nv THE Associated Press.

BY The Associated Press.
New York, Sept. 1o.-Approxi-
matcly $1,000 fans paid more than
$1,000. 900 to see Jack Dempsey knock
out Luis Angel Firpo. according TO
the estimates early today OF Promoter
Tex Richard. Fully $4,000 more
were massed around the Polo Grounds
unable to gain admittance.
The battle in point of attendance
and receipts ranks second only TO the
Dempsey Carpenter spectacle two
years ago at Boyle's 80 Acres, Jer-
sey City, where $4,000 paid $1,sco,-
600 to see the champion conquer his
French rival. The Willard Firpo fight
at the same arena last July was
credited by Richard with attracting
close to 100000 but official figures
showed a paid attendance of only
$4,000.
Dempsey reaped with his triumph
the greatest fortune of his career.
Receiving 371k per cent Of the gross
receipts his share on the basis Of esti-
mated receipts would be about $780,
600 while F'irpo, with 17h per cent
would get $4,000. This amount
was nearly twice as much as the Ar
gentine received for knocking out
Jess Willard,
