IF GRAND JURY
INDICTS DEMPSEY
BOARD WILL QUIT

New York. Feb 26.-If Jack Dempsey
is indicted by the San Francisco grand
jury for alleged conspiracy to evade
the draft law. the Army, Navy and
Civilian Board of Boxing Control
probably will drop its investigation
of the same charges.
An official Of the board said today
that a change of policy was being
considered and would be acted upon
at a conference ito be held within a
few days.
Since the investigation has been
taken up by a more efficient tribunal
with greater authority and more
power to go deeper into the case" IL
was said, 1.-The board may retire from
the investigation started or may post
pone it indefinitely"
II Dempsey is tried and found guilty
the license granted him last July will
he revoked without a hearing or an
investigation, II was declared.
Obstacles were encountered by the
board from the first. Dempsey was
not inclined to appear in person and
the board was advised against hear
say evidence" The testimony of
Dempsey, his former wife, Jack
Kearns, his manager. and John S.
Hogan, chairman of the draft board,
was all sent in as requested, but II
was not sworn to and IT had to be
sent back. 1t would have been at
least a month before the hearing
could have been started IL Uncle Sam
had not stepped in.

TECH ENDS COURT
SEASON DEFEATING
EASTERN l9 TOO

Tech High School basketeers
closed one of the best scholastic
court seasons yesterday In the his
tory of the Manual Trainers, when
they defeated the Capitol Hill lads
1s to 6. in the Senographers' gym.
Faber, the "scrappy" little for
ward on the Eastern quint, drew
first blood when he registered a goal
from mid-court; fallowing up this
shot counted one more in rapid or
der. Then Shaw started the bonn
bardment for the "Blacksmiths,"
getting a goal that started the ball
rolling. Then Leohler dropped In
two more, which put the Tech five
in front at the end of the first half,
score 10 to s.
After the intermission. the Man
ual Trainers came back with a burst
of speed that set the Southeast bas-
keteers wondering, getting three
goals. Eastern had many shots at
the basket. but could not cage 1T, the
game ending in favor of the Tech
High.
The guarding of Parker and GUIDE,
was easily the feature of the con-
test. keeping the Eastern five from
registering in the entire second half,
while Myers played well for the los
ers, being always in the game from
start to finish.
