makes such a charge cannot support
it with facts

When the draft came Dempsey
was placed in class "A. because he

divisions and later established a
areut record with the A Z. F.
However. he f. not now display
ing the form he did in the Philip
pines and later in France
Dals failure to show his old form
Is exactly the same experience which
other boxers have known Since his
return from France, more than a
year ago. he has engaged in but one
bout and. as Is usually the case after
such a long layoff. he Is finding il
very difficult to round to form.

Il is almost invariably the case thai
while boxers who are frequently par
ticipating in bouts are able 20 get
