ATLANTIC CITY, June 22.-In addi-
ton to sun, air and roast beef Jack
Dempsey is taking great deal Of
electricity into his system in prepare
ton for the fight with Carpenter.
This portion of his training is being
handled by s. j, Foster, D.C.M.T.
chiropractor, mechano-therapis and
electrics, therapeutist. In other words,
Doc Foster is the man who rubs Demp-
sey after his Workout
But the rubbing is only small part
OF 1t. Doc Foster insists on that. His
chief pride and reliance is in the poly
sine generator. why, that machine"
said Doc Foster this afternoon, "has
got some currents in It that would
break your arm in a minute. Yes, s:r,
they d break your arm quicker than
that" And as he boosted he looked
rather longingly at the latest arm of
the fattest newspaper correspondent.
OF course, there are more soothing
currents as we'll in the polysine gen
orator.
"They just reach down after the deep
muscles" the old Doc explained, land

Presumably it does not break them,
but merely frolics around with the
muscles and then casts them aside like
withered violets.
Old Doc After Publicity
Seemingly there has been a dearth
of audiences around the training camp
with any burning interest in the poly
sine generators, for the old Doc APP

asked wistfully: "Are any of you news

II wonder if you :nightn't like to
give me little write-up some time"
he added. I'm handling the champion,
and SO far the only write-up I've had
has been in the hometown paper" The
doctor comes from Marcus Hook, Pa,
and according to the clipping which he
carried, The Marcus Hook Observer
stated in an issue of last week: DIR.

The doctors literature also adds that

AS a matter of fact, Doc has been
denied the privilege of making any
adjustments in Jack Dempsey's spine
He admitted ruefully that it was d per

cheerfully, and of course the polysine
generator has been down into the
depths to chase all the most retiring of
the champions muscles.
Seemingly, the doctors treatments
have taken Dempsey long way on the
road to rugged health, because he bored
with unusual speed this afternoon. The
outdoor ring was discarded in favor of
the big hangar. Dempsey worked for
speed, boxing two rounds with Babe
Herman a bantam, and two with Joe

Jack was able to nail the little men
rather consistently and they on their
