Appears i'm Fine Spirits.

Much has been written about the
ex-champion's mental attitude" since
he came here. He appears to be in
fine spirits and he really appears to
get a bit of enjoyment out of the
grind. But he is not as full Of fight as
he was in the old days when he held
supreme sway in his class. The spirit
may be willing enough. but the old
fire just isn't there.
No matter what happens, r think
it will be interesting. Dempsey is a
hard man to fathom. He wants to go
in there with something in reserve.
He feels, l know, that he'll want to
have something left to put over the
finisher If the opportunity comes. He
reasons that Sharkey is not the classy
boxer, the cool ring general that Tun.
ney Island I really think he believes
he can beat Tunney if he gets another
crack at him.
But that's always the way with a
man who has been a world champion.
He is hard to convince that he was
actually licked.
Jack doesn't think he's trying a
comeback. He believes he never
went away" He still clinss to the
belief that he just had an "off night
when Tunney "outpointed" him.

w THlTE SULPHUR SPRINGS,
n Saratoga Lake, n. Y, July
NV 9.-Jack Dempsey cannot
afford to take many more
''lay.offs' from training
like he did this week. 1t looks to me
as if Jack needs every bit of intensive
work he can get. He is not near
enough to his fighting weight to have
to fear going "stale"<or entertaining.
He still needs all the. practice he can
crowd into the time remaining for him
to sharpen up his hitting and tighten
his judgment Of distance and accuracy.
1t looked to me, come to think of
it, as if Jack wasn't seeing all the
openings left by his sparring part
ners. If he did, he wasn't taking
advantage Of them. And I know
that Dempsey never "saves" a spar
ring partner. He may think he is
saving A man, but he doesn't.

his absence hurt the quartet.
Whites started fast and one goal

another by him in the second enabled

Maj. Hoyle.'s first point resulted from
a fine long shot. In the third period
the Fort Myer men got busy and

each found the uprights for a tally.

care you all right?" called out
Dempsey, and he hesitated until poor
Monte was able to nod his head to
signify that he was "all right" Then
"Bopp" over came Dempsey's right
on the other side OF Monies phiz, and
that was about all for Monte.
The thing was that Dempsey sim
ply could not pull his punches il he
tried. He thought going easy" with
an opponent meant smacking him
good one. and then holding him up
till he was able to stand alone and
then let him have another. This is
the worst kind of punishment you
can inflict.
Therefore. his knockouts of a cou.
pie or so Of sparring partners in the
last week do not prove much except
that Dempsey can hit pretty hard.
This doesn't mean that he is hitting

yes, Neutrality-suspicious., who could
slap over these same men more i'm

Michael McTigue, is not supposed to
be terrible hitter, yet I venture the
opinion that if he wanted to, he could
step out there in that ring and knock
over tHoSe SpdrIllg partners as last
as he wanted to.
And yet Dempsey, as I have said
before. looks very good right now.
He is coming along in his training.
From the way he is working here it
seems to me that he is going out to
do or die in the early rounds when he
meets Sharkey. He'll sail in there
to take a chance, or am very much
mistaken.
You see. this time he'll have no
title to defend He'll really have
everything to gain and nothing to
lose by taking chance. He found
he couldn't hit Tunney in Philadel-
phia. and no matter what he may
think, he was in there trying to wear
down Tunney and save that precious
title the last time he fought.
