It hits at the very center of the
mom commission's weakness.
"Two years ago. at u. meeting of

"The reply was to the effect that

Corbett. speaking of the
backs tucouutcred by the
game. says:
"Still more serious is the leniency
shown by the boxing commission
toward boxers. They do not make
fighters open up. To go into one’s
shell when one is fresh. to be afraid
to try oue's skill and equipment of
blows then. is to defeat the purpose
of boxing. No science is shown. In
fact more would be displayed in
running inlay. as that might take
some fancy footwork. None of the
spectators can learn anything of
the art and do not. get either ac-
tion or a run for their money; they

He beat Sum Langford in i:

He fought Jock Dempsey twice
and won a. decision the first time.
That was early in DClllPS"Y'S cart-er.
But it stands as an achievement.
So let us say that Mr. Smith
should have some idea of things “5-:

Now he arises to remark that:
Jack Dempsey should be rated
high as a heavyweight and a chemo
pion. but. the fact. that he has had
poor opposition has made him up.
pear greater that he really is.
Dempsey can lick Tommy
bans in three rounds.
He can flatten Harry Wills in the

As fer Gibbons. Bartloy Madden
would make him look foolish were

Smith’s remark anent the respect-

was caused by recent rumors that.
the two may be matched as part of
the campaign to work up another

from him. Smith, however, weather-
ed the blow and had the fight. won

Csrpentier has a. trick of steeping
low. especially after he is hit. and
than coming upland in with one of
his famous leaping punches. Smith
had clipped him on the coin and the
Frenchman had gone down. Smith
figured that when Carpentler did re-

Chapman come out on top in his
bout with Dundee there will then be
two featherweight champions. one
prochimed by the New York State
Athletic Commission and the other
recognised by u very large portion
of the Istic world.
Johnny Dundee stepped down from
the featherweight throne several
months ago when he informed the
boxing fathers that he no longer
could nuke the required weight of
126 pounds. A tournament was
then put in operation and after some
keen fights. Kaplnn finally was ad-

the 126 pound crown. but if Chap-

will be disputed. for the New Eng-

as featherweight champion on the
ground that titles are won and lost
in the ring.
