Since Jack Johnson Lost Title To Jcs. Willard In

The Air j
NEW YORK, July 16. (United News) Another battle
of the century will enter its preliminary stage Friday, some
14 months in advance of the actual bout, when Jack Demp
sey will sign an agreement with Tex Rickard to fight the color
ed Harry Wills next summer.
Rickard's card probably will be put on Labor day, next
year, the first great mixed colored match since Jack Johnson
lost the heavyweight title in Havana to Jess Willard.
The promoter announced that Dempsey, who went into
conference with him Thursday morning after returning from
Europe, had agreed to sign for a Wills bout next summer, and
for a bout with any one else Rickara might name in Septem
ber of this year. Dempsey's first opponent seems certain to
be Gene Tunney, although Rickard threatens to drag out
George Godfrey, the Philadelphia negro, or Jack Renault, the
Canadian champion, if Tunney doesn't listen to reason when
the question of terms arises. ,
The contract for the fights will be signed at 11 o'clock'
Friday morning, according to Rickard.
This announcement seems to hv I
demonstrated four things of import-
notd. The boye appear to have
reached the acme of well u""1
machine.

Most Bull.l It Vp
One reason the Wills bout has
been so long deferred, Rickard ad
mitted. Is that it will take months
; to "build It up." ,
But another reason probably is
that Dempsey 'prefers not to share
, with Kearns the huge purse which
he will receive. Until the contract
between the two expires a year from ' Cincinnati
September, Dempsey will give Brooklyn 5
