JACK SURE
WINNER
Declares Champion Will "Do
1t" Within Three Rounds
Friday Night.

NEW YORK, Sept. 12.-Jack
Britton, former welterweight cham
pion of the world. believes Jack
Dempsey a certain winner over Luis
Angel Firpo Friday night at the
Polo Grounds.
Dempsey will win inside Of three
rounds" declared Britton. "Firpo
has nothing but right-hand swing.
Dempsey is a two-handed fighter
who can hit harder with either
hand than Firpo can with his right.
Dempsey has forgotten more than
Firpo ever will know. He is fast,
shifty, experienced. Firpo is slow,
cumbersome and crude. The Argen-
tinian will be nothing but a chop
ping block"
"Supposing Dempsey takes it in
his head to carry Firpo?"
Dempsey doesn't carry anybody"
answered Britton. HE doesn't have
to. He doesn't have to fight every
week or month to get a living"
Didn't Dempsey carry Brennan
and Gibbons?" some one asked.
mo, sir" responded Britton.
Jack never was in such poor con-
dftlon in his life as he was when
he met Brennan in the Garden.
The doctors examination on the
afternoon of the contest showed
that Dempsey had to come out Of
the stable for Gibbons, but chat
wasn't what prevented Jack from
slowing Tom away in Jig time.
There were too many guns parked
around the ringside ready to pop
over some one, II Jack got too
rough with Tommie. When Demp-
sey is right there isn't a man in the
world who can go more than half a
dozen rounds with him. Dempsey
would have more trouble with a
fast. clever small man, like Gibbons,
than he does with the bigger ones,
but there isn't man alive with
speed or cleverness enough to stay
away from Dempsey for more than
half a dozen rounds"
Then you think Dempsey can
stop Harry Wills?" Britton was
asked.
willis would be easy for Demn-
sey," was Britton's reply "Demp.
sey is just as strong as Wills, much
more clever and a harder hitter.
Wills doesn't know what to do when
he Is hurt. He goes all to pieces.
Wills hasn't done any fighting late
ly and Is slowing up. Dempsey will
batter down Wills almost as quick.

quicker. for Dempsey Is sore on

USUAL ROBE OF
GsLACK|NG
FORCHANP

The bathrobes that boxers wear
into the ring have always been in
wonderful color combinations. A
lemon and black checked robe with
purple trimmings has been made
fs nous by Luis Angel Firpo. Other
ideas range from startling shades
of color. with nlonograms. or names
Of the wearer blazoned thereone,' to
a hodge-podge of shades and figures
that fairly take the breath away.
Jack Dempsey. the worlds chem
pion has yet to appear in bath
robe when he makes his entry into
the ring for the defense of his title.
And old sweater, either faded red
or purple, a towel thrown over his
head and shoulders is all the wrap
ping the champion affects. His
trunks are invariably white, with
his country's colors knotted ut the
waist.
Ih his training camp Dempsey
Affects a dressing gown OF dark
purple. He wears this during the
journey from his cottage to the
ring and back again.
There is nothing about Dempsey's
wearing apparel, in or out If the
ring, that cal be termed loud"
In fact his color tastes are ex.
treInelv modest.

BOOTLEG RING SPREAD
TERROR THROUGH COUNTY
Fired Upon Citizens Who Were
Hospitable to Officers Shown
at Trial.

ANDERSON. S. c., May 25.-A story
of a reign of terror" in the long
cane section of Oconee county, in
which men and women who extended
hospitality to law officers compelled
to remain away from home at. night,
were fired upon, was told in United
States district court here yesterday.
The story was told by Oconee county
officers just prior to the sentencing
of Clarence Phillips to serve two
years in the federal prison at Atlanta
and to pay fine of $1,000 for con-
spiracy.
Former Sheriff B. r. Moss and Dep
uty Sheriff Milling of Oconee county
said many people in the long icane
section were afraid to go out at
night Persons who allowed officers
to remain in their homes at night and
who gave the officers meals were
fred upon from ambust, the officers
said.
Many people who previously wera
willing to accord officers every aid
and to open their doors when the
occasion arose are now afraid to even
offer assistance" Mr.. Moss said.
The conditions were laid by the Off
GERS to bootleggers.
Federal Judge Watkins, in sentenc-
ing Phillips said that it was the
duty of the court to break up the
condition that had "terrorized the
community for years" adding that
liquor is at the root of the thing"

BRITISH HAVE 81 RULES

Tying Tin Can to Dogs Tail and
"Cuss" Words Among Cen
Sored Elements.
By the Associated Press.

LONDON, May 25.-American film
producers who wonder why some of
their motion pictures have been ruled
off the British screen may find their
explanation in the remarks of T p
O'Connor, oldest member of the house
of commons and chief censor of the
cinema in England.
Mr.. O'Connor, who with his asso-
ciates passes judgment on about
twenty-five miles of film every week
mentions sixty-seven elements, any
one of which will cause a film to be
forbidden. The board will not permit
naturalization of the figure of
Christ, cruelty to children and to ami
mails, disparagement of public char
acters and officials. prolonged death
bed scenes, too much revolver shoot
ing, or a picture which holds up as
laudable the sacrifice of a womans s
virtue.
The censor will not allow little boys
to tie cans to dogs tails, and he will
not let trained movie" dogs pretend
that they have been hurt. He allows
the bad man in the film to say, go
to hades" but not, GO to helln'
Girls taking part in crime, women
drunk and women being branded are
not allowed to be shown on films. and
no one may say, What the devil" on
