arar.r,, his i.itiniatc friends. Not that Benny expects to lose, hia char.jpionjhip when ho faces Satior Freedman,' Chicago, here on ,the afternoon of Monday, July 4, over the ton round route. In a letter to Promoter Floyd Fitz.simmons. tho champion makes the fror.k admission that he Intends to retire, within six montha, or "when I have met all the worth while opponents in tho field." "I have two good ears and my nose is still just as nature wanted it to be," writes Denny. "1 have r.ivtr won any beauty print s, but I'm very proud of the fact that I havo exposed the?e parts to perhaps a million boxing glove? and t.t.11 havo preserved thorn. I mtan to keep til em, too. "I am wv.rth half a million. I have made investments that pay sufficient to keep myself ar.d my family for th., rit of our lives. No. the world is mistaken if It thinks Benny is going to go the way of many others in the. profession . " Anenf the, coming bout with Freedma;., the champion inserts a few significant paragraphs. The y follow: "Billy Gibson '-'.as told me I'm in wrong around Chicago. If that's the truth. I'm going to square- some accounts against Freed man. if the fate-s are with me still. I realise he's a strong youngster, just beginning To right as he thould. But I think ho will go the way of Richie Mitchell. Joe: Welling and the others. Rocky Kansas was tough. I ll admit. They tell lr.o Fre.edr.ian is tougher. If the. public thinks so. I'r.i glad to get the char.co to meet him. "It was Frecdman who put Lew Tendler out of business. I am sorry for that ar.d so is Gibson. When he gets ready to f.ght again, he can have his chanco. When I have met all the worth while opponents in the field, and I do r.ot think that will require moro than six months more, I'm going to put the old gloves in the moth, balls and call it quits. The boxing -world has been kind to me and I'm going through to the finish. Then. I don't think the fans will have any complaint. I do- not believe any of my frior.ds care to wish 'tin' ears or a broken nose on mo for life and 1 want to have something- to say about it anyway."

BY JAMES J. CORBETT (Former World's Heavyweight Champion. ) (Written Expressly the L N. Service.) (Copyright. 1S21. by I. N. Service.) ATLANTIC CITY, N. J.. June 18 Jack Dc.rri.psey is taking good care of the eyo that wa3 Injured when Larry Williams accidentally butted him about two weeks ago. The Injured eyej his left one has healed up nictdy but is stiU tenoer and ho cannot afford to take chances of re-opening the cut, fo his sparring partners have orders not to bounce

any punches off tho left side of his ht ad. Ho wears a gear and a gauze to protect the eye. The champion cannot take, too much

I care, of his eye. Thera have been

scores of coses in boxing where puv'lists have been beaten because of being blinded by blood from a cut on the eye-brow. Years ago Joe Gins lost a fight against Frank Erne in the old Broadway club ia New York as a result of a cut over ono of his optics. The clover Gans was so confused and blinded by the dripping blood that he was almost helpless against Erne.

Georges Carptntier has a Quick I right hand. Furthermore ha is a clever boxer. And if Dempsey s eye j

should bo opened at Jersey City there is no telling what sort of an advantage it might givo Car"pcnticr, a wily scrapper who would c:Ttain!y make the most of it. As for that you know tho old saying "All's fair in love and war." Tho big f.ght i3 just two -weeks away. With a fortnight to go Dempsey is in fine condition and as his training campaign is being conducted now I believe ho will be able to continue working almost every day without great danger of over-training. Much dejpends on the anount of work he does. Since ha resumed his gym stunts and his boxing ho has cut the period of his daily stunts to about 23 minutes of fast, hard work. Within a few days more providing all is going well, he probably wil! pitch
