JEHSRY CITY, X. J., July 2.
"Never felt better In my life," remark
ed Jack Dempsey as he sat down to a
light, breakfast this morning In u pri
vate home here, where he had spent
the night.
The champion slept without inter
ruption from 10 o'clock last night until
seven this morning and awoke in a
happy frame of mind.
Dempsey's breakfast consisted of
two boiled eggs, toast and a pot of tea.
Accompanied by Ted Hayes, his
trainer, Dempsey started out for a
walk, but such a large crowd followed
nt his heels that ho was forced to re
turn to the house. Hero worshippers
had spent most of the night in the
vicinity to get a glimpse of the defen
der and to shout words of encourage
ment to him when lie made his ap
pearance. Although his whereab i'its was su
posed to be secret, the news leaked
before he had been in town more than
a few hours and fight fans were on
constant patrol along the street in
which he is housed. There was a
large percentage of women among the
spectators.

"It all depends on how the old

about his after the light plans. He

M rs. .Mae T'rowii of Chicago, a
friend of Uempsey, and his Prehear
ing landlady in the days of "slim
pickings" that preceded his rise in
the pugllictlc world, arrived here last
night with two pairs of hand made
white silk trunks, one of which the
champion selected to wear in the ring
today.

thing in belts, however, didn't coin
