New York, June 30. Jack fiempaey ruled the favorite among 165 Sports men out of 225 interviewed as to the probable outcome of his match with OeOrges Carpentier at 'Jersey City," Sat urday. Fifty-eight predicted' . that the French challenger would don ihe world heavyweight championship belt, while a scattering few, including-, a college irack trainer of considerable note, said they expected the bout to be about even. The usual "jf" figured largly among the speculations. Men declaring ' for Carpentier generally declined to state out an,d out that the French Is their, favorite. Their general opinion was tftat, if the ' bout goes five rounds, Carpentier will outbox the ehampiun for the remainder of the contest. . The great majority professed to believe that uempsey s By HENRY L. FARRELL United Fress Staff Correspondent 'New Yorte, June 30. The Dempsey. Carpentier battle called 4'the bout of a century and the greatest of all times," adds? a chapter to a list of important heavyweight championships that start- led back in 1882. j John Ii. Sullivan was the first to be considered one . of the real greats of I the ring. He 'won the title by knool- ling out Paddy Ryan in nine rounds atj Mississippi jCity, Miss., Feb. 7, 1882. He successfully defended his crown by knocking out Jake Kilrain in a seventy-five round battle at Richburg, Miss., on July 8, 1889, It was the last fight with bare knuckles. Figured without a chance, James J. Corbett. a bank clerk, ave one of tho first proofs of the merits of brains and seiertee against brawn and brute strength when he won the champion ship from Sullivan Sept. 7, 1892, in a twenty-one round fight in New Orleans. Corbett defended his title against Char lie. Mitchell in a three-round fight at Jacksonville, Jan. 25, 1894. After defeating Peter Maher in one round in Mexico in 1896, Bob Fitzsim mOns came along then and won,, the title from Corbett after fourteen rounds in Carson City, Nevada March 17, 1897, He held the crowh until June 8, 1899, wheri he wis knocked out by James L Jeffries in. an eleven round light at Coney Island, N. Y. . On the same battleground, Jeffries beat Tom Sharkey m twenty -five rounds on Nov, S, 1899.

Cor bett then challenged Jeffries and was lands a blow nn Cledr&f Those favoring Carpentier said they believed the challenger's supposed su periority in boxing would etajid1 off the champion through the early rounds. Only a few were willing to predict that Carpentier will knock Out the champion and those demand long: odds. Willie Lewis, veteran welter weight, whom Carpentier defeated in twenty founds in France, in lDlt, was among tho boxers who lined up with the European visitor. SOUTHERN LEAGUE hanager Deschamps with his eagle eye turned on Carpentier, abora. and what Georges was doing, at the time exercising tls back muscles by bending on th rinii floor. TO STAGE FIGHT IN EIGHTEEN-FOOT RING New Y'ork, June 30.-Jack Dempsey and Georges Carpentier will meet in nn 18-foot ring, which will be installed today in the Jersey City arena. This is the minimum sized fighting size of the ring because of the. fact that, although "it wdHmeasure 18 fee from rope to rope, There will be an overhang of, a foot or so to prevent the boxers being hurled from tha stage. EIGHT-OUNCE GLOVES FOR SATURDAY BOUT area permitted under the contract signed by the boxers. The maximum was 24 feet, and, sporting men both here and abroad expected that the Frenchmaii would argue vigorously l'or a piatiorm inai wuuiq give mm muit opportunity for the skillful 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 in tends to box, Dempsey toe to toe. Confusion arose last night over the ! New Yprk, June 30. Eightounce gloves will be the weapons used by Dempsey and Carpentier in their match for- the championship Saturday. This was announced today by Tex footwork I Rickard, promoter, who said the eight- ounce mitts were more favorable to the New Jersey Boxing Commission than those of the six-ounce variety. Managers of both .fighters inspected the gloves and pronounced jthem satis factory,.

It is to be regretted .that some, department or high official of the gov ernment does not assume a duty that might properly be expected to adhere to the prospective Department of Public Welfare and advise the country that if coal bins are not filled before the inevitable demand comes with cold weather the railroads will be unequal to the task of distribution, and another so called coal famine is bound to en sue." The U. S. Geoiogicar Survey report for last week says output of coal for the first five months of 1921 is 28 per cent behind 1917 and 1918, 23 per cent behind 1920, and even 7 per cent be hind the year 1919, from which the high prices later resulted.
