•New York, March 25.—The Damp-
aay.Cwpentier -coi
the grea'titst sporting event in his-
;tory, Tex Rickard bel&vea.
The world’s greatest boxing pro-
moter talks of hie pet match with all
the pride of a father In a prodigy
eon.
It is quite apparent that he rated
it as a first class attraction from the
start when ha was wfiling to put a
half million dollar collar around his
neck to make the match.
Rickard smiles in the face of prob-
lems that would drive the ordinary
fisan. to a bra.'n expert.
He is supremely confident, that he
will make enough money off the“‘bat-
tle of the age” to pay him for his
time and trouble.
“I had -this match in .mind the
night, that talk. Dempsey knocked.. pitched.battle took place between them
out Jess Willard in -Toledo,” he saM
today. -"’“I’ve -kept my hand on the
public pulse since that day and I was
awe—that it would be a winner
