As evidence of his deadly earnestness in the matter of fighting Jack Johnson, or Harry Wills, Jack Dempsey says he will go to the extreme of getting out and hunting work before he will mix with either of them. Here is what he says: "I'll not meet Jack Johnson on any terms. The public does not want this match, and as champion I will do nothing against the public sentiment. If fie match that certain people are calling for went through the boxing game would go back where it was. 1 think boxing is now on a good plane. Why spoil it? "I may be tempted to meet John son. They, of courjpe, could tempt me with a big purse if I happened to be broke. But if the day over comes when I'm broke I'll go out and look for work before I w ill consider any pro position that will hurt boxing." New York.
