TO DO LIKE JOHN L; '

MEETING ALL COMERS

CINCINNATI, O.. July 10. Jack Pempsey y-fsterday had the first piece of pie he has eaten In eight months, since he started training for the bout that brought him the championship. It was a hefty slice of luscious blackberry pie. created by Mrs. Charles Morris, pie baking queen of Winon place, where Jack is making his home during his vaudeville engagement here. The champion looked yearningly at the pie as it was rlaced before him. Thn he looked appealingly at Jimmy Del'orest, his trainer. "All right," He Forest said. "You can have It," and the young giant from Utah fell to it like a starved man. It is quite likely that De Forest will leave for his home in the east at the close of the week's engagement here, while Jack will go to his home In Utah. "Want to Emulate John Ii. Pempsey Is growing tired already of his exhibition here. He does not like it, he says. He would rather pull the John J,. Sullivan stuff and go around the country meeting all comers, instead of the footllght exhibitions. He says exhibition bouts are . K. when you are training for a real battle, but when he boxes he wants to rough It. If he had it his way all offers for vaudeville, moving pictures, and circuses would go into the waste basket. "I could go to sleep any minute and sleep for a week,' he said. "Just think I have been in active training for six months. I want a rest."
