HOW JACK DEMPSEY LOOKS TODAY.

BEST YET

Whirlwind Scraps At New Arena Are Seen By Big Crowd Saturday P. M.

Frankie Mason of Fort Wayna disflayed his championship caliber at tho KiLSt Chicago arena Saturday afternoon when he came out victor over Chicago's flyweight wonder. Jimmy KUy. in a ten round battle. Kelly fought a mighty good fight and proved to the fans that he really In what his managers have been claiming, a. future championship contender at least. The bout was the last of four, cadi of which travelled the full ten rounds and each of which was full of action. Kelly showed himself very clever with tha jrloves and although he admitted fter tha fight that ha had never travelled at such a fast pace he was still going strong at the finish. He had much the harder fight of the two since Mason played the champion's game and allowed Kelly to bring the battle to 1h r. He was content to wait for the little Italian's attack, making no special effort to 3o any damage, but always placing a blow as the opportunity offered. So little did he exert himself and so skillfully did ha maneuver ha was usually In his own corner at the end of the round, making It unnecessary for him to even walk, back to his chair, and only In the seventh and eighth rounds did he attempt to hurt his opponent. During the first half of the fight Maon loafed on the Job so much that Kelly, who was continually on the hop earned himself a draw through his aggressiveness, but at no lime was there any doubt as to who was the master. Mason waited his time and as Kelly would: fly In for a left to the stomach he would be met with a one-two wallop, most of which connected but failed to" slow up the attacker materially. Mason had little difficulty in rlacing his blows where he wanted them, but missed a number when he started to tear into Jimmy in the seventh and eighth. In tha seventh Mason connected with Kelly's nose and started the blood which he kept flowing for the rest of the fight. After this blow the champion stepped in and although he set a fast pace the young Italian was able to dodga most of the dangerous ones and return a few blows himself. Again In the eighth Mason made a whirlwind attack, but Kelly was able to weather it to the satisfaction of all. Otto 'Wallace, the boy who made such a hit the week before when he fought Jimmy Hanlon to a standstill, found that he had taken on more than he bargained for and although he rut up a great fight was unable to do any damage to Jack Lewis of Toledo. Lewis, who usually fights in the welter weight class weighed In for the fight at 135, but he had the reach, heigh and everything else in his favor. Wallace kept him busy and deserves a great deal of credit for his aggressiveness even though Lewis did get away with a shade. Stanley Everett of Ptkin. 111., won a shade in the first bout of the card when be gave Johnny Hagen of Chicago a few pointers in the boxing game. Everett played the dodging game and. although Hagen fought hard and landed a number of telling blows, came through with nothing worse than a small cut over the eye. Hagen was badly cut about the mouth from blows which Everett had little difficulty in placing after Hagen had dropped his guard in futile attempts to hit tha Pek'n boy. Sammy Ford, who substituted for Toung Army against Eddie Kaynor of South Chicago, found Rayrr too strong for him and although he tried hard wa3 unable to protect himself from Raynor's wicked body punches. Ford Wfrked a dandy uppercut which kept him dangerous to the end. but a cut eye early in the bout slowed him up and made it easy for Raynor to win. . The crowd a small because of the cold weather and threatening rain, but it would have taken more than bad weather to keep Jimmy Kelly's throng of admirers away. There were between 2.500 and 3.000 present. There will be no show next Saturday, but Oswego is planning for a big card n two weeks.

YACHT RACE CONDITIONS . TODAY IDEAL BY FRANCISJ. WHITE STAFF CORRESPONDENT 1. N. SERVICE! ABOARD U. S. S. (JOLDSBOKOL'GH. Off Sandy Hook. N. J.. July 26 (Via Wireless) A light nohthwesterly breeze was blowing early today and conditions appeared to he idea! for the staging: of the deciding race between Shamrock IV and Resolute for America's cup . Today's course is fifteen miles . to windward and the same distance to leeward and it was this type of raco in which Resolute showed to such advantage 'n the two previous occasions it was sailed . In the first race she was wining hands down when her throat halyards carried away and in the second she won by her time allowance. All the way through she showed her superiority in the wind, her skipper outclassing the Shamrock skipper at every

point of the game. With her huge

spread of canvas Shamrock was able

to pick up some of the difference on the fifteen mile home-run but never

enough to win. The wind was slight" on each occass!on, so that today should see Resolute a winner by at least the six minutes forty seconds time allowance she receives, if she is not actually first to cross the line. Sir Thomas Upton stated yesterday on his steam yacht. Victoria: "It's a long drawn-out contest this time, but my little boat will be sufficiently in front when the whistle blows."

SO LONG as the acute shortage of man-power in the United States continues, the demand for gasoline power will continue to increase. Every increase in the demand for gasoline riover will affect the price of gasoline, because, though petroleum production's continually increasing, it is not keeping pace with the demand for gasoline. The latest figures available illustrating this point are for March, 1920.

Johnson was hastily taken from the train at Joliet when V. S. marshals bringing him from California learned that hundreds of his 'friends had gathered at the railroad terminal at Chicago and were preparing to make a demonstration in his behalf. They were forced to give thrir ovation to Mrs. Lucille Cnmenjn Johnson, the pugilist's

white wife, who was loft on the train because of the suddenness with which Johnson was removed from it at Joliet. In an intotview Johnson said he had received an offer to fight Jack Pempsey for the divisional purse of $300, 00. reiterated his charge that his fight with Jess Willard was a "frame up."' and that he had agreed to "lay down" under a promise th;it letting Willard wen would get him back In the V.
