In the mean time some Interesting Information Is being furnished on the fighters themselves and their records and will be published In continued story form until the fight takes place. The following article by the Associated Press is the first In this series: William Harrison "Jack" Dernp sey. born In Manassa, Col., June 24 189S, is a novice in ring aiTsIrs when compared with the fistic experience of Qeorgea Carpentier, his chtllen ger. Carpentier a earliest ring en gagements date back to 1907, when the Frenchman was but a slip of a boy. Dempsey's first official battles were fought In IRIS. A con A test with one Kid Hancock, whom Dernpsey knocked out In a sin gle round, is the first official engage ment credited to the conqueror of Jets Wlllard. Dernpsey, however tells with evident delight, of an ear lier bnttlo. . 1 Dernpsey himself was the promo ter, ticket-tnker and a principal on that boxing program, which grew out of an argument with another youth at Montrose, Col. They wore about to settle the difficulty In the usnnl American style, with fists, wben Dempsey, showing n certain business acumen that has been noticeable in both him and his manager In later days, suggested that they hold the hoiit Indoors and charge admission. A few days Inter they, pitched a ring In the town dance hall. Dempsey sold and collected tickets at the door until it was time to fight. They split the tSO "gate" and declared It was "easy money." That bout started Jack Dernpsey In the profession which was to make him subsequently the highest paid athlete anv snort has seen. Ha fought 27 battles during 191S and 1916. wlnnine IX by knockouts mid five on decisions. He fought three draws and was defeated once, bv .Tack Downey. Dnmpsev. In 1915 and 1916. when "'t week's meals were not always lefinlce.lv scheduled, traveled on brakes and beams, rather than tn cushioned compartment cars on his lournev from one fistic engagement to another. His travels took bltn to New York In ..the late .months of 1916. White In Now York. Demnsey met Mi fi-t onponents of any class, box ing with Andre Anderson, Wild Burt Kenney and John Lester Johnson In in-round, no-decislon bouts, all eo Ine the limit. Dernpsey was credited with heating Anderson and Kenney, hut the vetoran negro, Johnson, knew a bit too much for this "dia mond In the rough" from Colorado. Johnson cracked two of Jack's ribs In the second round and Dempsey showed ring gumeness by standing up to the negro for the remainder of the fight. Dempsey and his manager now talk, in the hundreds of thousands when discussing purses. For his first bout in New York City, with Ander son, the westerner received $16. For boxing Kenney, he was given $43 by tho promoter. He signed to box John Lester Johnson for $500, but received only $100. In those days there was no Jack Kearns present to haggle for the boxer, and he decided that New York was not the gold filled city that western stories had led him to believe. The young fight er returned to the west and to ob scurity for a few months. trvman. and Salmon, an Englishman the first In three rounds, the latter in 18. In another bout with Salmon, Uarpentler won on a foul In 13 rounds. He then defeated Lepine In six rounds and fought two draws. Uescauips had been bringing his youthful protege along carefully and already he was showing excellent form anions; France best bantam-weights. The second and third years of Georges" Carpentier ring career started him off like a future ban tamweight champion of the world. In 190s be fought six battles, win ning two by knockouts, one on a foul, one on points, while each of the other two resulted in a draw. Descamps gradually became more daring in choosing opponents for the llvyear-old boxer. Salmon, the Englishman, whom he defeated by a knockout the first time in is rounds and again on a foul In 13 rounds, was among the best of the English batamwelghta. Legrand, on of the shiftiest of the French bantams. twice beld him to a draw, once for six rounds and again for 20 rounds. The following year promised to be even more successful. In one of the earliest bouts he knocked out in one round Wetlnck, who had nearly held him even In one of the 1907 contests. Four victories by knockouts and nine bouts won on points, Including triumphs over Charlie Led mix and Paul Til. both famous bantams, com prised the record for tha year until Carpentier ran Into Gloria, a vet eran, who stopped hi m In six rounds. This was the first time that the Lens youth bad taken the count. Defeat at the hands of' a more ex perienced boxer did not discoursge either Carpentier or Descamps for, on the whole, Carpentler's develop ment had been phenomenal and none recognized the fact hftter than the shrewd little man who has piloted the boxer to his present pitch of prominence.

NEWLAND How Georges Carpentier, taken from a Lens brewery, where he worked as an office boy, won his first battlerby knocking out Francois Des camps, his instructor, when Des camps attempted to chastise the youth, is one of the choice legends of boxing. Descamps s keen percep tion on that day, as well as his shrewdness and perseverance, has been a most important factor in bringing the French boxer to the prominent position he now occupies. Three four-round contests consti tuted Carpentler's first year of ring activity In 1907. Two of these he won, defeating on points Ilourgeois and Wetinck, French boxers whose only claim to fame is that they once tiHt Georges Carpentier. There was more opposition in the third battle and at the end of four rounds Car pentier was the loser to one Mazoir, another Frenchman, who has sunk Into obscurity. Carpentler's totnl ring earnings (or t hat year are said to have been $184. The following year was more suc cessful. Twice in his 15th year the I young Frenchman won by knockouts, stopping Moinereau, a fellow conn Apricot Growing In Valley Urged The growing of apricots in Oregon may become one of the great fruit industries of western Oregon. There are benches in the ltnseburg district, areas in the South Umpo.ua and bench lands near Grants Pass that are especially adapted to apricots, according to C. I. Lewis, chief of horticulture for 14 years at the O. A. C, and at present assistant mnn nger of the Oregon Growers Co operative association. Other sections of the state that are adapted to apricots are at Sam's val ley, Wagner creek, Griffin creek and other bench districts extending from Jacksonville to Central Point. Ten or fifteen years ago quite a few apri cots were grown In the Rogue river valley, but at that time they could only he sold locally for home can ning. After making an Inspection of apricot districts In California last fall, Mr. I-wls returned convinced that the Tilton variety of apricots is the one that should be planted in Oregon. The Tilton apricot blooms ten days later than other standard varie ties. II Is a heavy yielder and pro duces fruit of large size and desir able color. Another factor in favor of the Tilton apricot Is the fact that It is a favorite with canners. JX, Is superior to either the Illenheim or Royal for canning purposes. The Tilton apricot tends to bear regularly. It is not an alternate bearer, which is true of a number of varK'tles. Hut the Blenheim apricot might be planted on a smnll scale and might prove desirable, accord Ing to Mr. Lewis. Apricot trees are planted 30 feet apart on good soil, while on poorer soil 25 fet apart Is the right dis tance. The trees are headed 20 to 25 inches and are cut back after the first year to from 18 to 30 inches. In Oregon, apricots are being now A lloscburg, Oregon. Phone 458. ' . .

Sporting men of many nations, clad III the formal evening gnrb with which Europe honors its boxers, were part of the throng. Johnson was proud of his victory, for U will be the first time that a champion as old as he had ever de fended his title and won. He was then 36 years old, Moran's senior by almost a decade.

Jack Johnson was Indicted on charge of violating the Mann act but he evaded arrest and finally jour neyed to Paris. When tire exenequer shriveled a bit, he finally accepted a challenge from Frank Moran, of Pittsburg, and they fnced one another in France on June 27, 1914. The negro wnrrlor scored a victory on points In 20 rounds. Moran was game and stubbornly stood up to Johnson's assaults, which had not th steam of the champion's earlier attacks. Johnson possessed all of his old-time skill, however. . There was not a single knockdown nor anything that smacked of a fin ishing blow. Johnson's superior skill and his Incessant upperciittlng kept Moran In subjection. Moran's attack laclced the powor to dispose of his adversary. The crowd was as cosmopolitan as Paris Itself.
