DEMPSEY NEVER DODGED HARRY WILLIS, SAYS TEX NEW YORK, Sept. 2—Jack Dempsey has never dodged Harry Will and would rather have fought Will than Gene Tunney if the boat could have been arranged, Tex Richard I reported to have said Friday. "To say that Dempsey fears Will is a joke," said the promoter. If considers him a clean-living诚实 citizen, but a second-rate fighter." At the same time the promoter, in a detailed statement defending the champion's course, revealed that his own efforts to stage a Dempsey-Will lis match were blocked two years ago after he had gone so far as to have the tickets for the fight printed. Opposition on the part of the State athletic commission then was the barrier to the match, although previously the boxing authorities had approved it. New Jersey put up a similar ban and Rickard gave up all thought of trying to hold the contest "My experience with the Jefferies-Johnson bout long ago convinced me that a Dempsey-Wills match would not be a good thing for boxing," said Rickard. "As I became better acquainted with the game and talked with persons of influence I saw no reason to change my opinion." MT. OLIVE HOLD, SESSION.
