DEMPSEY HAS MUCH

Dempsey slipped back into his train

that he will continue work without

The low, crouching Dempsey, weav-
Ing around an opponent, with his
powerful arms always ready to lash
out, is one of the most dcceiVing
fighters the ring ever developed. His
punches. whether with right or left,
are hooked into the ribs, under the
heart or to the jaws with astonishing
precision and power. He has no
swinging blows. His jolts seldom
travel more than a foot; frequently
six inches.
Dempsey fights in a half crouch, al
ways on his toes. He is an open tar
gft to both right and left hand
psnches, but is so fast of foot that
only thScleverest and fastest punches
have been able to land on him effect
lively.
Georges Carpenter. with his fash
ing right, nailed Dempsey Squarely on
tie chin, but the champion, seeing
the blow start, was going away from
the punch by the time it had reached
its mark and the full force of it was
spent. Yet it jolted Dempsey to his
heels. Time and again in his fight
with Tommy Gibbons at Shelby Glib
head, but they did not carry enough
power to hurt the rugged champion.
Firpo resembles fighters of a prim-
;tiVe era in the savage style of his
attack. His club-like right, carrying
more power than Dempsey's. accord
Ag to some experts, has been his
Main punch. and usually effective. He
seldom employs his left, except to jab
or cover up. In the ring he drives
his opponents into retreat with the
impetus Of his rushes, then batters
them with his right.
He has developed no effective de-
Tense, apparently, though he has
steadily improved his general ring
manship. Nevertheless he has proved
beyond doubt his gameness and abil-
ity to take punishment
bJeSS Willard never was able, in the
eight rounds he lasted against Firpo,
10 land his famous right .uppercut.
Bill Brennan's left beat a, tattoo on
FirpoS head in the early rounds of
their fight, but failed to bring the

How high the ball should be
thrown when serving depends upon
the type of serve player uses. But
in general it may be said that the
ball should be thrown: just high
enough so that it will not be neces-
sary for the player to hesitate DE
fore making his serve or on the
other hand to hurry unduly before
making his stroke.
On the average, the ball should
be thrown about three to four feet
above the players head and it should
be hit at the maximum possible
height above the ground.
