not declare himself. He intimated,
however, that he juld not care to
tackle one of the big contenders as
his first match.
I think that I am entitled to a

said. "However, I will not make
any decisions until I have bad a
chance to look around a bit."

Don't Want Risk Title
"Jack is still my manager, you
"know,"' the fighter observed. "In
spite of reports to the contrary, bis
contract as manager holds good
until a year from September. And
he Is a good manager, too. He
obeys orders and we get along fine."
But through all bis optimistic ut
terances. It was apparent that Demp
sey does not favor taking the big
risk this fall. It would take a long
time to clear a way for a fight with
Wills, he said, adding that he doubt
ed whether such a battle could be
arranged before a year from Sep
tember. "But I have kept in training in
Kurope," he said, in reference to the
prospect of some lighter bouts, "and i
am perfectly willing to go into the
ring right now."
