Tm Satisfied, and That’s Enough,’ Says Champion Jack as Title Bout Nears

EXPECTS HARD FIGHT, BUT DOESN’T FEAR OUTCOME Dempsey Admits He Might Be Below Old Form, but Thinks He’s Too Good for Firpo. Bv HENRY FARRELL United Press Staff Correspondent SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. V., Sept. 10.—With five days remaining until he defends his title against Luis Angel Firpo, the South American giant, Jack Dempsey said today that he was “ready to go.” “I’m satisfied with myself and that’s enough. 1 feel good and am confident I will be able to win.'* the champion said when asked how he felt after reaching the final stages of his training.

Dempsey, never endangered in the' past by over-confidence, is not making any mistake this time. “Regardless of what is being said about Firpo. I know he is going to put up a hand tight. He is big and strong and he can hit, and any big, Btrong fellow is dangerous as long as he is standing,” Dempsey said. Explains His Condition Dempsey admits he might not he as good as when he won the heavyweight championship from Jess Willard. “To remain in perfect condition and at the top of form, a boxer must work oftener than 1 have been able to do. The reason T feel so good now is because of the training I went through for the Gibbons fight and the hard fifteen rounds I had with him,” the champion said. Physically the champion looks as good as when he went into the ring at Shelby last July. He still looks rather light when compared to his big sparring partners. His skin is clearer and almost free of the blemishes that were so noticeable when he was training at Great Falls earlier in the Bummer. Misses Many Rights The champion worked out Sunday with George Godfrey. Jack Geyer and Farmer Lodge, three big fellows. He ts still missing much with his right hand, as he did in his training at Great Falls and he still seems rather easy to find with a left hand. It was apparent, too, In his workout that he leaves himself open to many right hands. Dempsey is very fast in his work and his wind seems sound. He has developed the speed of a lightweight, hut he seems to have sacrificed punch for speed. He does not snap over his punches as he used to, and when they land they haven’t the old Dempsey power behind them. Jimmy De Forrest, who trained Dempsey up to the heavyweight championship and who was given “the air” recently by Firpo, saw the champion work out Sunday. He said he was not overly impressed with the form Jack showed, but he still believed Firpo had no chance to win the championship.

ED WERNER WINS HORSESHOE TITLE City Champion to Compete in National Meet, Ed Werner won the city horseshoe championship Sunday afternoon at Riverside Park before a large crowd. He was -victor in seven games and lost none. He pitched 163 ringers and 45 doubles. Meyers was second, winning six games and losing one. He found the peg for 139 ringers and 32 doubles. Dengler was third with five wins and two losses. The winner will be sent to the national tournament at Cleveland this month. Following is the summary: G W I, R DR Werner . 7 7 O 16a 45 Meyers 7 6 1 139 .12 Denzler 7 5 2 132 35 Leffel 7 4 3 135 27 Agle 7 2 5 99 16 Rich 6 2 4 119 19 Haines 6 1 5 34 7 Kimrael 7 0 7 79 9 THRILLS PROMISED WHEN FOX AND MANDELL CLASH It looks as though Matchmaker Harter hooked one of the best matches possible for his main go at Tomlinson Hall Sept. 17. After sign ing Joey Fox. holder of a Lord Lonsdale featherweight belt of England, Harter rushed to Chicago and signed Sammy Mandell to meet the Britisher. Mandell is a flashy glove artist and is out of the same stable as Bud Taylor. Fact of the matter, Mandell fights the same style as Taylor and is “in there” all the time. Fox and Mandell stand high in featherweight circles and doubtless will give the indoor fight season here a grand send-off. RIVERSIDES AT KOKOMO The Riverside A.

McGraw of the New York Giants is expected to renew an offer of |2rto,ooo for Rogers Hornsby following a clubhouse fight between Hornsby and Manager Branch Rickey of the St. Louis Cardinals, Inst week, the St. Louis Star said today. The Chicago Cubs are also reported to have a bid in for Hornsby, who is considered one of the most valuable men in baseball.

Sport followers said it was a case of “either Rickey or Hornsby must leave.”

As for Francis. he twirled in a confident manner, and although getting only three strikeouts, he permitted only one scratch hit until the ninth inning. The contest wen: off without an argument and Umpires Murphy and Mattern handled the affair just right. The outstanding fielding feature was a great stop and throw by Hudson. Riverside second sacker.
