But this was only after Kearns had issued an ultimatum that he would call off the match and take Dempsey out of town if Daugherty was not selected.

The challenger wilr bo into the ring weighing about ISO pounda--11 pounds-heavier than when be fought Dempsey in their two previous engagements two years ago. His admirers are impressed with the fact that he is the only fighter who has faced Dempsey for ten rounds without being knocked out. Dempsey's most formidable assets are hits punchbig powers and ppeed. Miske Is aggressive. but has been rated as of the plodding rather than the light-footed type of ring general.

and his punching powers have not gained the fame of a championship wallop. The match tomorrow will be Dempsey's first since he conquered Jess Willard in the third round of their battle at Toledo fourteen months ago.
