' BY HARRY B. SMITH.
NEW YORK. June 30. (Special.)
What between 24 hours of continuous
rain and possibility an outside
chance, so say the local weather
prophets that the same sort of
weather will continue over until Sat
urday, as well as all the confusion
caused by the appearance of counter
feit tickets. I can't say that I envy
Tex Rickard his peace of mind these
days. The promoter has been run
ragged in the handling- of this fight
as never before, and close friends say
he is well-nigh sick with the worry
and all.
The unusual weather to which New
York Is treating its visitors (at least
the oldest inhabitant says he doesn't
remember cuch prolonged rain since
Hector was a pup) is naturally giv
ing the promoter as well as persons
who have come on for the fight more
or less concern. Just at this writing
the rain has stopped, but it may re
sume. Those a fairly short distance from
New York had counted on Sunday for
sightseeing and Monday to take them
home, and if it should happen that
the bout has to be postponed until
July 4. that would interfere with their
plans.
Matter Are Complicated.
Visitors from a farther distance
who had made reservations for either
Saturday night late or Sunday, are
.now pestering the sleeping car ofti
cis to see if they can't make reser
vations as well for Monday night or
Tuesday morning in order to be sure.
The coming Elks' convention that Is
to be held at Los Angeles early in
July will complicate matters if there
should happen to be any postpone
ment. "I don't anticipate it will be neces
sary to postpone the fight," eaid
Rickard this afternoon. "A rain of
this sort is most unusual and we are
fortunate that it has come today in
stead of Friday. Of course if the rain
should continue, we have Monday In
reserve as fight day and can make
our plans accordingly."
FlKhters Might Suffer.
The fight will be started unless
there Is a heavy downpour Saturday
morning, and if the rain comes dur
ing the course of the match or after a
majority of the spectators are in
their seats, the fight will continue
with a special umbrella-like arrange
ment hoisted over the ring. There is
no question but that such a change
would raise havoc up and down the
line. The fighters, keyed up for an
event that is now almost within their
grasp, might suffer.
Those secret workouts staged by
Carpentier were apparently not so
much to mystify the newspaper boys
as to give Georges peace and quiet.
Judging from a story Edgren told
me this afternoon.
It seems that when Edgren first
appeared on the scene, Descamps told
him that he was welcome to attend
any of the private workouts at the
Manhasset camp.
"Don't tell anybody," said Descamps,
"bin you can come out any time you
please."
Advantage Not Taken.
Edgren adds that he didn't take
advantage of the invitation, because
he felt it would be unfair to the
other newspaper boys for him to use
his official position as stakeholder
to see something from which the
others were barred. But the point
of the story, to my way of thinking,
is that if the Frenchman had any
secret punches he did not want to
tell the world about It. such an in
vitation would never have been ex
tended to Kdgren, known as a news
paper man as well as stakeholder.
Descamps, by the way, is not wor
rying over the delivery of the $200.
000 that will be due Carpentier when
he has fulfilled his contract. Kearns
was worried about possibility of at
tachment suits that would tie up the
Dempsey coin, but Descamps said he
had nothing to fear on that score.
He said he did not want the check
at the ringside and that any day
next week would suit him.
What the French lad will do de
pends upon whether he wins or loses.
If he loses, the camp will return to
France Just as fast as a steamer
can carry them.
Movies May Be Entered.
If there is a victory Carpentier Is
to leave for southern California,
where he will enter upon the making
of a moving picture which will be
released Just as soon as possible after
the fight.
There has been something of a
slump in ticket values and New York
papers today carried a story that in
some instances the $50 seats were
being offered for $46, or $5 below par.
Even at that, intending purchasers
are almost afraid to buy, as they can't
be sure whether they have the gen
uine tickets or counterfeits.
Rlckard's newspaper advertisements
also carried the statement that the
box office bad a few $50 seats, the
explanation being made that there
were scattering returns from other
cities where they had been put on
sale.
It appears now that Carpentier and
not Descamps is the man who made
serious objection to an 18-t'oot ring
or anything under 20 feet. When
Descamps inspected the ring, Rickard
told him It was an 14-foot ring.
Story LL Out.
"Suits me," said Descamps, "looks
bbg enough. But please don't have
anything published about it, for Car
pentier reads all the papers and It
would bother him."
Just the same, the story did leak,
and it is whispered that Georges said
a few wcrds to his camp. However,
and notwithstanding, the ring will
remain as i is. Carpentier put in a
quiet day at his Manhasset camp and
was very much alone save for a brief
visit from some of the French sport
ing writers. Georges did some shad
ow boxing, but did not don the gloves
with any of his partners.
Report has it that he is extremely
nervous and irritable, both being con
sidered good signs of condition. His
irritation was quite evident in the
course of a game of cards he played
with Journee.
Carpcnt'er's wife sent him one ca
blegram of good cheer; Gaston Vidal,
a member of the French cabinet,
cabled that "all France is behind
you," and urged Georges not to for
get to send him the boxing gloves he
will use 'n the match with Dempsey.

EOLF GALLS J. H. WATSON
PRO ENGAGED BX CALIFORNIA
CICB OF SAX FRANCISCO.
Ex-Waverlcy Tutor Well Known in
Portland and Brother of Fa
mous Arcbitect.
J. Martin Watson, for many years
golf professional at the Waverley
Country club, has been engaged as
"pro" by the California Golf club of
San Francisco, according to word re
ceived here. Martin, who was suc
ceeded by William Hanley at Waver
ley last year, left Portland to engage
in business at Roseburg, Or., but evi
dently the call of the ancient pastime
was too strong.
The ex-Waverley golf tutor is a
Scotch-born professional who knows
every angle of the game and has
the reputation of attending strictly
to business. He is a brother of the
famous architect who laid out the
new links of the Berkeley Country
club and several other golf courses
on the Pacific coast.
Watson is an excellent teacher and
made many friends while at the
Waverley Country club. He is also a
good golfer, though he Is of the type
who keeps himself so busy giving in
struction to his charges and superin
tending other matters in and around
a golf club that he finds little time to
put himself in practice for competi
tion. His best medal over the Waver
ley course was a 68.
Forrest Watson, son of J. Martin
Watson, and. a member of the Waver
ley Country club, is rated as one of
the best golfers among the younger
club wielders of the northwest. In
the recent Pacific Northwest amateur
championships at Waverley the
young star showed his mettle by
fighting through to the semi-final
round where it required all the skill
of the veteran, H. Chandler Egan,
to dispose of him on the 36th hole.
The Portland Golf club Is the only
one of the three local golf institu
tions to announce a special pro
gramme for July 4. The feature Is a
flag tournament. It will be an 18
hole handicap medal play with par of
the course added to the handicap of
each player, who has this number of
strokes to complete the course or
if possible to go further. Each
player places a small flag, with his
name on it where his ball comes to
rest after using the allotment of
strokes. This event is different from
the usual run of tournaments and
the handicap committee expects a
large turnout of golfers on that day.
Many stories and bits of gossip of
the recent northwest tournament are
going the rounds of the local golf
colony, but the most interesting is
th5 story of Clare Griswold's brassie
which played a prominent part in the
winning of the northwest title by
George Von Elm. Griswold noticed
that Von Elm was topping his sec
ond shots in the matches previous to
the final tilt between the Salt Lake
youth and Egan and offered Von Elm
the use of his brassie. Just before
the start of the final match between
Egan and Von Elm, the latter tried
a few shots with the new club and
it was in his caddie bag when the
match started. Throughout the match
Von Elm had little trouble with his
shots on the fairways and It was
Griswold's brassie that turned the
trick.
It will be remembered by those
who witnessed the final match what
happened on the 36th and deciding
hole. After topping his second shot
on this hole Von Elm made one of
the best shots of the match a 260
yard brassie about 12 feet from the
pin. This was the shot which placed
him in a position to win the match
and was made with Griswold's club.
The new northwest champion bought
the club from Griswold before re
turning to his home In Salt Lake
City. -
Sidelights of the Big Fight.
The name of Jack Dempsey was greeted
with hisses when It was mentioned on th
floor of the disabled veterans convention
at Chlcagro yesterday. Declaring1 he under
stood Dempsey was an honorary member
of a western organization of veterans.
Judge Marx said:
"Dempsey Is the last man we would
want as an honorary member of this
organisation."
Jack Dempsey and Georges Carpentier
will meet In an 18-foot ring which was
installed yesterday in the Jersey City
arena. This is the minimum sized arena
permitted under the contract signed by
the boxers. The maximum was 24 feet,
and sporting men both here and abroad
expected that the Frenchman would argue
vigorously for a platform that would givo
him more opportunity for the skillful foot
work for which he is noted. The fact
that no official protest has come from the
Carpentier camp has given ground for
rumors that the challenger intends to boa
Dempsey toe to toe.
Confusion arose Wednesday night ovr
the size of the ring because of the fact
that, although U will measure 18 feet from
rops to rope, there will he an overhang
of a foot or so to prevent the boxers being
hurled from the eta ge.
Five men were Indicted yesterday by
the grand Jury at New York on a charge
of forgery in the second degree in connec
tion with counterfeiting of tickets for the
Dempsey-Carpentier fight. Complaint was
made by Promoter Rickard.
A telegram declaring "We are with you.
Carpentier, and every service man in Mon
tana hopes you succeed in knocking out
the shipyard veteran. Jack Dempsey, when
you meet him Saturday." has been sent to
the challenger, it was announced at Htttte,
Mont., yesterday. The message was sent
in compliance with a resolution adopted
at the state convention of the American
Legion of Montana, which 'concluded its
sessions at Lewiatown Tuesday night.
Jack Dempsey ruled the favorite among
165 sportsmen out of 225 interviewed in
New York yesterday as to the probable
outcome of the match. Fifty-eight pre
dicted that the challenger would don the
heavyweight belt, while a scattering few,
including a college track trainer of con
siderable note, said they expected the bout
to be about even. Men declaring for Car
pentier generally declined to state out
and out that the Frenchman is their
favorite. Their general opinion was that
if the bout goes five rounds, Carpentier
will outbox the champion for the remain
der of the contest. The great majority
professed to believe that Dempsey's hit
ting power will bring the battle to a sud
den close if he can land.
Only a few were willing 'to predict that
Carpentier will knock out the champion
and those demand long odds. Willie Lewis,
veteran welterweight, whom Carpentier de
feated in 20 rounds in France in 1012, was
among the boxers who lined up with the
European visitor.
Whether Georges Carpentier or Jack
Dempsey wears the champion's belt atter
next Saturday's party at Jersey City, the
defeated fighter has something to soothe
his hurt feelings and bruised body.
One of the "big five" packers of Chi
cago yesterday sent telegrams to Jack
and Georges, offering the loser a posi
tion. Should the Frenchman win, - Jack
can enter the intelligence department, and
should Dempsey retain his title, Georges
can return to Paris as the French repre
sentative of the packer.
The gloves which Jack Dempsey and
Georges Carpentier will wear when they
meet for the heavyweight championship in
Jersey City on Saturday reposed last
night in a safe In the office of Tex Rick
ard in New York. Those that the French
challenger will don are a trifle smaller
than the pair made for Dempsey's fists,
ut each glove weighed eight ounces when
tested on the scales.
Each set is dark maroon In color with
blue tape wrist lacings. The best of
leather and curled wool have been used in
their manufacture.
The gates of the arena In Jersey City,
wherein Dempsey and Carpentier will box
for the world's heavyweight championship
on Saturday, will be opened to the public
at 8 A. M.. July 2. This announcement
was made by Promoter Rickard last night
in connection with the statement that
the first preliminary bout will be started
at 1 P. M. sharp, and the principals in
the championship bout had been instructed
to enter the ring at 3 P. M-, eastern day
light saving time, or 2 P. M.f eastern
standard time.
In case the six preliminary bouts should
occupy less time than anticipated, an ef
ford will be made to bring Dempsey and
Carpentier into the ring immediately after
the semi-final in order that there may be
no tiresome wait for the spectators.
It is expected that there will be a good
sized crowd of patrons for the $5 seats
on hand when the gates are opened and
for these the wait will be unusually long
unless there is some early activity In the
ring. All told there will be about 8000
$5 seats, three tiers deep at the top edge of
the arena. The rear-most row will have
an approximate sweep of 1800 feet, as the
arena Is 600 feet in diameter.
The alternate referee to J. H". Ertle and
other minor ring officials, including the
timekeepers, probably will be announced
tomonow.
All members of Georges Carpen tier's
camp are confident that the blond French
man will be victorious. Their various opin
ions, follow:
Manager Descamps "Ah, my Georges
never fooled mo yet. After Saturday I
will be manager of the world's heavy
weight champion."
Trainer Gua Wilson "Georges as a light
heavyweight came into contact with some
of the world's cleverest and hardest hitting
ring men."
-.Captain J H Ma"t. the challenger's
friend and adviser "Georges has always
risen to the occasion. He has never yet
failed to carry out his intentions and he
intends- to beat Dempsey. I believe in him "
Paul Journee, French heavyweight and
sparring partner- 'Ugh, Georges win
easy." .
Lieutenant Pierre Mallet, the challenger's
war comrade "We believe Carpentier1 a
experience and ring generalship will carry
him through to victory."
Joe Jeanette "Carpentier Is too smart
a fighter to lose this bout. He will be
away when Dempsey hits and the cham
pion will not be able to see his right hand
it will be that fast." '
Charles Ledoux, French bantamweight
champion 'Georges will win. He has
plenty of sense and knows how to take
care of himself."
Marcel Denys. French lightweight
Georges will win a one-two punch and I
do not think that Dempsey will be able
to hit him one telling blow."
- Italian Joe Gans, who sparred with the
challenger during three weeks of the train
ing period: "I believe Carpentier will knock
out Dempsey in the fourth or fifth round
with a right to the jaw. Carpentier Is the
fastest man of his weight that I have ever
seen.
Chris Arnold, sparring partner "Car
pentier has a right hand that never misses
and it paralyses when it strikes."

SEATTLE. Wash., June 30. (Spe
cial.) It was Elmer Jacobs' turn to
spank the Beavers today, and he did
the Job up to a chestnut brown. In
cidentally, it was Jake's eighth con
secutive victory, which puts him in
a fair way to break the season's rec
ord for etraigrht wins hung up by
Lefty O'Doul. The score was 6 to 2.
It took the tribe just one inning to
beat Portland. The Seattle lads
handed Jacobs a three-run lead in
the opening- round, and that was all
Jake needed. The Beavers gleaned
their only earned run in the fourth,
the big- Missourian holding McCredie's
youngsters helpless before his sweep
ing curve in the rest of the inninge.
Sylvester Johnson, one of Mack's
more experienced youngsters, worked
for the opposition and he tossed a
pretty fair game. His mates kept
him in the hole all afternoon with
shaky support, and the 11 Seattle
hits did the rest. Tex Wisterzil did
most of the hitting for the Indians.
Tex got four out of five, one of them
a double. The score:

Challenger Said to Be Only Fair
Light Heavyweight Going TTp
Against Great Heavyweight.
BT HARRT M. GRAYSON.
NEW YORK. June 30. (Special.)
The greatest fight crowd in history is
assembled here to witness what prom-
ses to be the worst tragedy In the
history of pugilism.
The advance seat sale Indicates
that George Lewis Rickard, the most
reckless gambler in the world, will
play to a packed house. His huge
Jersey City arena seats 91,613 and
the silent N'evadan said tonight that
he confidently expects the "gate" to
total 81,670,000, or three times the
total receipts of any previous cham
pionship classic. About 30,000 seats
remained unsold tonight.
And what attraction has brought
more than 25,000 out-of-town per
sons? What is the magnet that has
drawn men from practically every
nation on the face of the earth?
No Chance Given Pollu.
Certainly not a boxing contest.
In a contest, the participants have.
or are supposed to .have an equal
chance. Georges Carpentier has about
as much chance against Jack Demp
sey as the Portland club has of win
ning the Coast league pennant.
The poilu is only a.- fair lieht-
heavyweight going against the great
est puncher and one of the most
tricky heavyweights who ever had a
pair pf Levinsons laced on his hands.
The Manhasset hermit will weigh
172 pounds against 191 or 192 for
the son of the golden west.
It looms up as one of the most
one-sidc-d heavyweight championship
iipnts in the annals of cauliflower
aliey. Carpentier will be carried out
of the ring followed by the regrets
of the American public
Criticism May Follow.
It is the belief of the writer that
Promoter Rickard and the New Jersey
state boxing commission will be
mighty lucky if they are not laid
wide open to a lot of adverse criti
cism as a result of this so-called
-battle of the century."
Dempsey should win in two rounds
or less. It may go three. It all de
pends on how the challenger elects to
fight- If he comes out of his corner
and makes an attempt to land his
well press-agented right hand on the
Salt Lake slugger's cast iron chin
like he did on Joe Beckett's, the
battle of New Jersey will be short
and sweet. The instant me frog at
tacks, bronzed John will find open
ings. Should Carpentier go through
with his prepared plan for a "running
fight" his piano legs may keep him
in an upright position for three
rounds.
Carpentier's brilliant war record,
the fact that he is a Frenchman and
that the exhibition has an interna
tional flavor are the reasons for
staging Saturday's show.
Despite the fact that practically
every smart boxing man picks Demp
sey to win quickly there are not a
few playing up the invader's "won
derful right hand," and what has
this brave soldier ever accomplished
with that right fist to entitle it to
be termed "wonderful?"
Frog's Record Cited.
He knocked out the "Old Oaken
Beckett,' Charles Francis Moran,
long ago dead and buried as far as
being a live heavyweight is con
cerned, and who stopped Beckett in
little more time than did Carpenter.
Bombardier Wells? Al Palzer. Gun
boat Smith, Moran and others turned
the lights out on Wells.
Battling Levinsky? The wise men
hereabout insist that the Carpentier
Levinsky match was "one of those
things." Outside of his triumphs
over Beckett, Well3 and Levinsky,
Carpenter's only other impressive
showing was his 20-round decision
over Jeff Smith.
Dixie Kid, Frank Klaus and Billy
Papke made him hear fine music Joe
Jeanette beat him. Willie Lewis and
Harry Lewis, both about through, lost
20-round decisions to him. Gunboat
Smith had Gorgeous Georges down
and all but out when he lost on a
foul in the fifth round. Five years
elapsed between the Gunboat Smith
scrimmage of 1914 and the Dick Smith
affair of 1919, and the pride of France
has fought but three times in seven
years.
Dempsey knocked out Homer Smith,
Jim Flynn twice, the late Arthur
Pelkey, Bob Devere, tjan .Morris
(twice), Fred Fulton, Porky Flynn
(twice) and Jack Moran in one round
each.
Carpentier Held Freak.
Gunboat Smith lasted two before
ihsv arjolled the smelling salt. Le
vinsky, Billy Mlske and Jess Willard
were beaten to puip in tnree. uemp
sey carried Bill Brennan along for
12. after stopping rum in six. v-ar
pentier is a physical freak. He's
built like a heavyweight from the
waiHt down and llae a middleweight
from the hips up. He has anything
hut the Ideal build.
Promoter Rickard announced that
the exhibition will be postponed only
m case It rains nam saiuraay morn
ing and the storm lasts until early
afternoon. If it is postponed it will
h held Monday. July 4.
Carpentier money appeared more
freely tonight and Dempsey odds
shortened from 3 to m w i.
The Jersey City arena was complet
ed at twilight today. More than two
months have been required to com
nlete the structure. Starting work
April 28. 60,000 cubic yards of earth
were removed. The structure is built
on seven acres. Two million two
hundred and fifty thousand feet of
lumber were required, with 60 tons
of nails.
Mayor to Boose Champ.
Dempsey and Carpentier will meet
In an 18-foot ring despite the 20
foot report which has simply been
given out to satisfy the French flyer.
Its a psychological play on the part
of Francois Descamps. Th New
Jersey commission ordered an 18-foot
ring and that settled It.
Eight-ounce gloves will be used.
Demnsev will pass his last, few hours
before the exhibition as the guest of
Mayor Hague of Jersey City. He will
arrive in Jersey ity tomorrow alter
noon and after inspecting the arena
for the first time will make himself
comfortable at tne executive s home
.tend.
Carpentier will motor from Man
hasset to. New lorn Saturday morn
in?.
A. private motorboat will carry him
across the brink. Another will fetch
him to Quarters near the arena.

Parisians to Know of Success or
Failure of Idol Three Min
utes After End of Bout.
NEW YORK, June 3D. Expectant
Europe, awaiting word as to the re
sult of the Dempsey-Carpentier bout.
will receive its news and pictures of
the event as quickly as this age of
wireless telegraphy and the airplane
will permit. Transmission records
between the continents are almost
sure to be broken.
A radio corporation has been re
quested by the French government
to flash the result of the bout from
the ringside. Direct connections have
been arranged between the Jersey
arena and the Tuckerton station. The
messages, flashed from there, will
be received in Paris by a set special
ly installed for the occasion. Barring
unforeseen delays, Parisians will
know of the success or failure of
their idol within three minutes after
the end f the battle.
Photographs of the bout for Lon
don and continental newspapers will
be carried out to sea by hydro-airplanes
and delivered to an ocean
liner on its way to Europe about 100
miles off eastern Long Island. The
steamer will sail from New York for
Plymouth at noon Saturday.
Three big international picture
agencies will be in the race to get
their pictures before the' continental
public first. The pictures will be
developed aboard the liner and made
ready for airplanes that will meet
the liners off the English coast and
speed with them to London and Paris.

I REMEMBER fj
Title Holder Retires for Last Xight
In Camp, Mind as Peace
ful as 5-Vear-Old.
ATLANTIC CITT. N. J., June SO.
Jack Dempsey, after a day of loafing
and frolicing around the house that
has been his home for eight weeks,
went to bed at 9:30 o'clock tonight
with his mind as peaceful as a 6-year-old
boy.
Tomorrow the champion and his
party will leave for Jersey City to
rest until called to Tex Rlckard's
arena to defend the highest honors of
the prize ring against Georges Car
pentier, champion of Europe. Tht
hour of the champion's departure to
morrow was a guarded secret. Not
even his immediate handlers had been
informed. The location of the private,
residence in Jersey City where Demp
sey will pass the night before, the
battle has not even been revealed to,
the champion.
Residence Kept Secret.
"I haven't told anybody." Jacte
Kearns, his manager, said: "Jack
doesn't know himself. When we ar
rive in Jersey City, we'll go directly
to the house and stay there in seclu
sion until it's time to go to the arena.
I want him to have absolute rest the
last 24 hours."
Dressed in an old pair of trousers,
a silk shirt and a tattered dark red
sweater coat, Dempsey sat for hours
in a swing on the porch this after
noon. He remained there because a
heavy thunder storm lasted into the
night. Around 3 o'clock Dempsey's
front porch looked like a political
campaign headquarters.
Trunks All Packed.
A crowd of 100 or more admirer
from Chicago, who arrived this morn
ing on a special train en route to.
Jersey City, came out despite the
heavy rain, for a round of handshak
ing. " He warmly greeted them with,
a friendly hand clasp.
AH was hustle and bustle inside the
champion's house from breakfast time
until dark. Trunks were packed for
the departure tomorrow and hundreds
of telegrams arrived containing mes
sages of good luck.
POILTJ GLAD TRAIXIXG OVER
Challenger Works Hard Final Day.
Trainer Says He Is on Edge.
MANHASSET, N. T., June 30.
Georges Carpentier finished his Ions
training today, breathed a sigh of
relief and said he was glad it was
over. He added that he felt better
than he ever had before a fight.
Despite a heavy rain throughout
the day Georges worked hard and ,
when he finished Trainer Gus Wilson
announced that the challenger was
on edge.
After lunch Georges tipped the
beam at 172 pounds. He remarked
that this was the heaviest he ever
had been before a fight.
Tomorrow Carpentier will exercise
lightly for about half an hour. No
visitors will be permitted to enter
the camp and Georges will retire early
tomorrow night. It is likely. Trainer
Wilson said today, that he would go
through a light exercise Saturday
morning, lunch about 10 o'clock, then
go by motor to New York, thence to
Jersey City to the home of a friend,
where he will remain until about 2
o'clock. He then will hurry to the
arena in order to be in the ring at
2:30. when the preliminary Instruc
tions and picture taking are sched
uled to begjn.
Enjoying perfect peace In the ab
sence of visitors, Carpentier this
afternoon spent three hours opening
mail which in the last few days has
accumulated to more than a thousand
nieces. There were presents and mes
sages of good will from all corners
of the universe."
