CARPEXTIER COXCEDES MUCH Manager of Frenchman Willing to Journey to V. S. PARIS, Jan. 7. Georges Carpentier is willing to give concessions in the matter of weight in order to meet Jack Dempsey, according to a state ment made tonight to the Associated Press by Descamps, Carpentier's manager. Descamps said he was willing to split the 400,000 purse of fered by James Coffroth on a basis of 60 per cent for the winner and 40 per cent for the loser. "Carpentier is willing to Journey to the strange land, face an exotic climate, give away from 25 to 30 pounds in weight and accept a split of 60-40 of Mr. Coffroth's offer," said Descamps. "We had intended to demand a 60-50 split but are willing to accept a 60-40 division in order to show this is not merely a money making proposition but also a sporting event. We will endeavor to give American sportsmen a real championship battle." Descamps' attention was called to dispatches from Los Angeles, which reported Dempsey's manager as ex pressing a willingness to limit the proposed bout to 15 rounds and an nouncing that it was his opinion that the contest would last only one round anyway. "That is exactly my opinion." said Descamps. "You may note, however, that Manager Kearns fails to state who he thinks will win in one round. "If Kearns is fearful that the spectators will not receive a run for their money unless the bout is billed for 45 rounds." added Descamps smilingly, "perhaps we can .arrange for the managers and promoters each to contribute a 15-round battle, in addition to the principals in the world's championship bout."

IOWA LAW BLOCKS BOUTS Promoters Seek Way to Evade Pro visions of Stale Act. DES MOINES. Ia.. Jan. 8. Pro moters of professional boxing in Iowa are trying to figure a way to continue matches and comply with the state law. A letter from Attorney-General H. M.

CASE ATTRACTED NATION Prominence of Defendant as Ath lete Draws Country-Wide Atten tion to Government's Charges. SPOKANE, Wash., Jan. 8. William II. (Lone Star) Dietz, today began serving a 30-day sentence in the county Jail here following his plea in the United States court of nolo PUT. 1 1 't " T7Z William H. Dietz, Famous Coach, Sent to Jail mm Self-Conf enned Slacker. contendere to an indictment of falsi fying his. draft questionnaire. The indictment against Dietz charged that he had falsified his questionnaire for the purpose of evad ing selective service in that he had stated he was a non-citizen Indian, born on the Pine Ridge Indian reser vation in South Dakota; that he had received an allotment of land from the government, and that he was en gaged in an occupation necessary to the winning of the war. The indictment declared Dietz to be an American citizen A jury in United States district court here disagreed last June 26 after having heard the presentation of evidence on a similar indictment charging Dietz with evasion of the selective draft. He was reindicted the same day by a federal grand jury. Case of National Interest. The Dietz case has attracted na tional interest because of the promi nence of the defendant and because of the charges filed by the govern ment, namely, that of falsification ot a questionnaire in order to avoid military service with the American forces. Dietz was indicted January 31, 1919 when a true bill was returned con taining two charges. The famous Indian coach and graduate of Car lisle was arraigned before a United States commissioner In Spokane, June 13, at which .time he pleaded not guilty. A Jury was impanelled, test! mony was taken In the case June 23, 24 and 25, and on June 26 the jury was discharged after it assured Judge Rudkin that It would be impossible to reach an agreement. Deputy United States Attorney Charles H. Leavy, who tried the case, immediately appeared before another grand Jury then in session, presented a new indictment covering certain elements which were overlooked in J! i r" - i ' ' I e A f F I s - - - r V - 'V? - f , ..... kl the first indictment, and asked thatix rounds, dropping the visitor for a true bill be returned. The grand jury heard the government's case and returned a second true bill less than 24. hours after a petit jury had dis agreed on the counts of the first in dictment. Coach Pleada Not Guilty. Dietz entered a plea of not guilty when arraigned on the consolidated indictment. This plea was withdrawn today by Dietz. when he appeared before Judge Rudkin and entered a plea of nolo contendre. The two counts of the new indict ment under which Dietz would have had to -stand trial, and which he avoided by pleading today, are that he falsified his questionnaire in order to evade the selective service draft by registering as a non-citizen when in reality he was a citizen of the United States. Dietz claimed in his questionnaire that he was born on the Pine Ridge, S. D., Indian reservation, that he was not a citizen, that he received an al lotment from the United States and that he was engaged In an industry essential to the successful prosecu tion of the war, namely,, the produc tion of motion pictures. The latter company, the American Indian Film corporation, was represented by Dietz In his questionnaire as employing 15 persons and that Dietz headed the motion picture outfit, which was en gaged in an essefftial war enterprise. Government Disputes I Ira. In the indictment the government contended that Dietz was not born on .the Pine Ridge Indian agency, but in Barron county, Wisconsin; that he never received an allot ment of land by the government; that he was not engaged in the pro-, duction of an essential war enter prise and that 15 people were not employed by the American Indian Film corporation. On the other hand, the govern ment declared that pietz is a natural born citizen and that he never was on the Pine Ridge Indian reservation except to visit Indians and after be was indicted by the government. The trial of the Dietz case last June attracted wide attention because of the charges, importance of the de fendant in the sporting world and because of the variety and promi nence of the witnesses Sally Eagle Horse, whom Dietz claimed as a Bis ter, and who denied his kinship in the courtroom; Dietz' mother, who swore that Dietz was an Illegitimate child of her husband's, and other tes timony which lent much apice to the trial. Dteta Noted mm Coach. Dietz is one of America's leading football coaches and for three years was coach- of the Washington State college eleven. Later he was coach of theIare Island marine teams. When Dietz appeared before Judge Rudkin today he answered firmly but quietly In the affirmative, when questioned by the court as to hie guilt in falsifying his questionnaire. The court then listened to a briet plea by the defendant's counsel, after which Dietz stood, faced the court and received his sentence. Accompanied by United States Mar shal Jamea E. McGovern, Dietz went to the county building 'this afternoon at 4 o'clock and entered the Jail. Dietz wore the same light gray suit of clothes which he wore during his trial last June, and a light overcoat. He seemed- somewhat nervous as he entered the marshal's office to give himself up to the authorities. Later, as he sat In the marshal's office and chatted with employes, he seemed to gather himself together and laughed and chatted about bis case.
