THE DAHY BRITISH WHIG In the World of -Sport AN AMAZING OFFER BY CHAMPION DEMPSEY Willing to "Box Carpentier, Fulton and Beckett in Same Ring. Jack Dempsey, heavyweight cham- pion of the world, has made one of, the most unusual offers to the sport-, ing world that any champion pugil-| ist ever made. In a statement issued in Philgdelphia the heavyweight title holder declared that he would box Joe. Beckett, champion of Great Britain; Fred Fulton, the American mow in Great Britain, and Georges Carpentier, the French champion, in the same ring, one after another, on the same night. Dempsey, who £ performing at a theatre in the Quaker City, said: "If the National Sporting Club of} London, Mr. Cochrane of Olympia, or| any other responsible British pro- moter will guarantee me a substan- tial purse I will agree to meet Fred Fulton, Joe Beckett and Georges Carpentier one after the other in the same ring." There were no conditi than a 'substantial purse," but jus: what the conqueror of Je Willard would consider substantial is a ques- ons other Not even lanky Bob Fitzsi whose doctrine was that "'the bi are the 'arder they fall," amazing offer. shortly after losing his title Jeffries, knocked out Tom and Gus Ruhlin-a somet ing than jig time, 'and then challeng Jeffries "to imme s combat.

If the other two did not po v more heart than the Minnesota plasterer, the whole thing would be over in three rounds. Jack will be on the job. All he wants is a reasonable purse and fair play.

No man can hope to stand against him in the ring. Ful- ton with his glass jaw, surely could not. Beckett failed to startle the world when he took 17 rounds to wear down the rather passe McGour- ty. The fiery, plucky @¢arpentier, server of Francé and decorated for gallantry in action, arouses a sym- pathetic chord in the hearts of box- ing fans. Although boxers should stand on their own feet, the fans would mot like to see Carpentier swept down, even by an American. Jack Dempsey's williz.gness to take on Fulton, Beckett and Carpentier in the same ring the same night pro- vokes slight interest in London and Paris, as no promoter ix willing to entertain such a proposition. How- ever. Beckett was located by tele. phone af Soythampton. His manager, Mortimer, sald: . _ "The author of the proposal is a com@dian, not a gerious-minded per- son. Beckett is willing to meet Dempsey after Carpentier, provided Beckett beats Carpentier. The Bee- kett and Carpentier bout is scheduled for late in November or early in De- cember. Our proposition is that Dempsey cross over at the end of the vear and box for a purse of $125,000 The arrangement for meeting Car- ntier was made long ago. "The winner will be the champion of Burope and worthy to meet Demp- sy the champion of America." dst Rugby Briefs. --- Jack Newton, the star, is coaching the intermediate team. former Varsity Sarnia O.R.F.U According to information from Hamilton the Tigers will -not have an intermediate team in the Inter- provineial - Union.
