the walls of the indoor gymnasium in'H' Lon
ueorges Larpentier s training camp are among the most interesting of contrivances employed by Manager Descamps and Trainer Wilson to aid in bringing the challenger into condition and keeping him there. On one wall is a large poster showinc the Frenchman standing in tri
umph over Joe Beckett at the knock-j
out. At the other side of the ring Carpentier is shown after the victory being hoisted to the shoulders of admirers. Around the walls are other pictures of the European champion. Admittedly, he is not to be allowed to forget the slogan of the camp, which is that he is the greatest boxer in the world and sure to be the champion after July 2. "The psychology employed by the shrewd Descamps since Carpentier entered the ring as a boy under his direction has been one of the stock legends of boxing. It will be played to the limit in the preparation for the coming battle at Jersey City. Carpentier left France at fighting weight and in excellent condition, Descamps declared, and the main function of the next five weeks will bo to prevent, him from going stale physically and maintain that state of mind which will send him against Dempsey confident of victory. The occasional cigarette, with Jelly and sweets in moderation, which are being given the boxer during his week of rest, tend to show the confidence of bis directors in bis present physical fitness.

The champion does not want to risk reaching the peak of his fighting condition too early in his training, as was the rase at Toledo when he fought Jess Willaid and was obliged to halt training and resume it later. Manager Kearn, in announcing the change in training plans, said that Dempsey had reported at camp in better physical condition than he had anticipated and three weeks of real training would be all the champion would need to whip him into perfect fighting condition. Until the intensive training program is launched. Dempsey will continue to box three to five rounds daily, in addition to shadow boxing, bag punching and other routine. He probably will begin working in the new open air arena next

UNITED BRETHREN HIT DANCING, CIGARETTES
INDIANAPOLIS. May 21. Provisions condemning modern dancing, the teaching of dancing in public schools, the use or manufacture of cigarette, and all forms of gambling were included in resolutions adopted unanimously Friday afternon by approximately 1,500 delegates to the United Brethren church in Tomlinson hall. The clause referring to cigarettes included a declaration providing that the church, as a body, consecrate
itself to the work to bring about ab-i rounds.
solute prohibition of the sale, use and manufacture within the United States. The resolution declared that the modern dance is injurious to the health, moral character, social ideals and spiritual life of the country's citi zenship. It recommended that members of the church refrain from dancing, and that the ministers "exert every proper influence in warning counsel and' persuasion that our youn people may escape the dangerous temptations that accompany the dance." It closed with the statement. "We disapprove heartily of the teaching of dancing in the public schools."

By PRA3K O. MEXKE Some of .the folks who are quite sure that G. Carpentier of Paree. is going to knock J. Dempsey considerably cuckoo on July 2, exude along these lines: "Dempsey must be judged on his laat fight. That was against the slow, awkward Bill Brennan. It required 12 rounds for Dempsey to put away Brennan. Meanwhile Brennan peppered the champion at will. If Dempsey couldn't polish off the clumsy Brennan in less than 12 rounds, and Brennan all the while was able to hit Dempsey, then it follows, as a line of reasoning, that Carpentier is a cinch to win. "Why? Well, if Brennan could hit Dempsey 100 times, the flashy Frenchman can hit him 300 times in the same distance. And if Dempsey missed two out of every five leads for the. flat footed Brennan, he won't land one punch in five on Carpentier. "Therefore, the Frenchman will land three or four blows to one and he pecks more steam in his smashes than Brennan ever did. So the Frenchman will land three or four blows to one and he packs more steam in his smashes than Brennan ever did. So the Frenchman is a sure thing to win." Blah! Jack Wasn't Himself. Those who ejaculate along these lines fail to take into consideration the mightiest factor of all in connection with that Brennan-Dempsey fracas. And that is that Dempsey wasn't himself that night. Why? He explained it after the fight In this way: "I didn't feel right in the early
Just couldn't get started un
til along about the 9th or 10th. But when I once got started I was all full of the old pep, the wallops began to find their target and I knew I'd get Brennan sure." Dempsey was "off stride" that night, through no fault of his own. He sufrered a slump or a lack of "pep" that every human in every endeavor of life occasionally suffers. And there is no fixed time for that slump. Happens to Everybody. Some mornings you hop out of the
feathers, full of zip. enthusiasm and hr
ambition. You carry it with you all through the day. No job is too difficult for you to tackle; nothing wear
ies you. let the very next dav. for
no reason at all, you feel sluggish lazy and almost have to drive your t-clf about your appointed tasks. Can you explain your "form reversal?" An athlete goes on to the ball field today and electrifies the crowd with his brilliant performance. Nothing gets past him in the field. He is leap, ing six feet into the air after this drive, scooping the next sizzler out of the dirt and racing into other territory to kill off prospective hits byrival batsman But tomorrow he fumbles a couple and is dead on his feet. . What's the answer?'
If Charlie Paddock can run a hundred yards in world's record time one day, why can't he do it the next day and every day? It's because he's physically keyed to concert pitch one day and without cause is off stride the next. Why is that a great pitcher slings shut-out ball today and is ham-
mertd from the box In hi next start? Why is it that star golfers negotiate a course in pitror under one dav nd take 15 to '20 strokes more the next? Dempsey has fought 20 jpecUcular fjghts'in three or four years ana two indifferent ones. The first war, against Willie Meehan on the Coast in 1918. The roly poly beat hins to the 4-round decision to the astonishment of the fistic world. Immediately there was a mighty chorus; "Dempsey either was overrated or be has gone back." No one offered the reai reason that Dempsey was just oft stridethat night sluggish and slow for no explicable reason. Against Brennan it was the same. Champ Off Stride. The champion went into the ring off astride. He looked too finely drawn. And he was. . He couldn't get up a sweat for seven or eight rounds. His muscles weren't co-ordinating with his eye and biain. And so he missed often., looked unlike a mighty championand Brennan hit him again and again. But Brennan neyer hurt him never drove him back. The' attack of his rival wasn't working Dempsey. His failure to "find" himself that was the worry. Dempsey fought to hit his true stride through these early rounds more than he fought Brennan. Along in, the 9th or 10th the old Dempsey the miraculous Dempsey came back. And then the knell began to sound for Bill Brennan. If the Frenchman should happen ta catch Dempeey off stride on July 2 a remote possibility, he has' a faint chance to beat him just faint and no more. Brennan caught Dempsey off stride on December 14 yet Brennan couldn't beat him. And later day events probably -will prove that Carpentier isn't as good a warrior as is
