Moing Picture Producer Wires Javk
Deiupsey's 31nagcr Did of $550,000
for Bis; Dout.
Xew York, Jan. 10. William Fox,
the moving picture producer, sent a
telegram to Jack Kearns yesterday of
fering $000,000 for the Derapsey-Car-pentler
bout. This is $125,000 more
than he offered last week. He agrees
to split the purse 73 per cent, to the
winner and 2 3 per cent, to the loser,
plus 30 per cent, of the net profits to
be divided 70 per cent, to the winner
and 30 per cent, to the loser.
The remaining 50 per cent, of all
profits he wants divided among the
lied Cross in America, Canada, Aus
tralia, France and Great Britain. He
is to retain the motion picture privi
leges for himself.
Fox also gives Dempsey the privi
lege of accepting 300,000, win, lose or
draw, instead of the winning or losing
split of $350,000. Fox stipulates that
the battle be held on July Fourth or
Labor day "in the United, States," ex
act date and place to be arranged
later.
Regarding Kearns' statement that
he was considering promoting the
bout himself Fox wired: "In view of
the sizo of the purse 1 have offered,
plus other expens-es in connection with
the. promotion, representing approxi
mately $800,000 of my money, I nat
urally feel that my organization is
competent enough to do all the nec
essary things in connection with stag
ing and arranging an honest cham
pionship contest.
Fox asks for a decision within 24
hours. To newspapermen yesterday
Fox reiterated hisr earlier statements
that his offer was a bona tide one and
that he was prepared to go the finish
with it. He insisted that the moving
picture privileges would amply repay
him for promoting the bout.
