By Ralph H. White.

Champion Jack Dempsey has accepted a week's theatrical engagement, while Jess Willard is^ going back to the farm. Dempsey will open at Cincinnati, and, it is said his bit will be something better than $7,500 for the week. Naturally, lots of other dates will follow and he is in a position to make the $100,000 paid Willard for his nine minutes of suffering look sick before he reaps all the benefits of his man-killing ability. Jack should clean up a cool million at least before he scraps again. But the champion told me at the Sector hotel the night after the scrap that he didn't intend devoting his time to the stage, but to the ring. That's the proper caper, don't you think, kind readers?/

Many champions, old and new, were loticed In the crowd, among them Tames J. Corbett, Tommy Ryan, J"ohnny Toulon, Freddie Welsh, Benny Leonara iohnny Kllbane, Jack McAuliffe, Batling Nelson, Jack O'Brien and others.

The man who constructed the arena, James J. McLaughlin, from Francisco, was, busy throughout the day. He had en about testing and tightening the

ropes before the big battle and sprinkling rosin over the surface'of the big mat.

The fighters made their first appearance in the ring at 4:07, when a whole squadron of photographers snapped them together in the center of the ring. The fighters shook hands, had a discussion of the rules with Referee Pecord, and went to .their quarters. It was juht 4:09*4 when the gong sounded calling them to the ring to battle,

The first fighter to enter the ring was Dempsey. The little fellow picked a corner with the sun at his back. His sparring partner, big Bill Tate, carried

TOLEDO, July T.—Because of the controversy about the duration of the! heavyweight championship conteat between Jess Willard and Jack Dempsey and whether Dempsey should b« credited with a knockout, Olli* Pecord. referee of the Independence day matah, ruled that Willard had been Knocked out in the third round.

Referee Pecord also rnled that th** fight ended at the close of the third. round despite the fact that the towel was not tossed Into the ring from W1I- -v lard's corner until the bell had sounded for the fourth round. Willard, howaver, did not leave his chair to answer the call for the fourth round.

Tex Rickord, promoter of th® contest, requested an official ruling from Pecord because of the hundreds of: telegrams he received asking if Dempsey should be credited with a knockout victory and when the bout was officially ended.
