Algunos hechos histonicos ocurridos en-
la uida del boxeador Jack Dempsey

Jack Dempsey ha sido echado de su
vivienda de Los Angeles Y obhgado a
conformarse con escasas comodidades
de ma casa de departamentos que ocu-
pa junto con Jack Kearns.
E1 manager ha compatible la odisea
del campe6n
Todo clio ha ocurrido de la siguien-
tc manera:
Al volver triunfante a Los Angeles
despues de. su trenzada con Firpo,
Dempsey trajo consigc unos cuantos
amigos del Este y del oeste Medic, a
| quienes aio;6 en- su casa. Todo fus
rien.... durante uno dos d.as.
Laego comenz6 llegar de la misma
.cindad de Los Angeles, de San Fran
cisco y de otras parties, gran cantidad
de amigos que traian el prop6sito de fe-
llcitar al gladiator. Por una ra26n II
otra, estos amigos, elegian siempre las
horas dc las comidas, para realizar sus
yisitas, con 10 cual, los cocineros de
la casa de Dempsey, sta en- Western
Avenue 2415, que preparaban un al
,.luerzo, I'M lunch una comida para
echo personas mas menos, palidecian
mortalmente-o algo mas-al ver Is
O 90 caras hambrientas alrededor de la
nlesa
Y los visitantes nj solo llegaban Ill
tilno momento EN- grupos compactos,
cnn 10 ciiaI 10 complicaban todo, sino
que demostraban cierta tendencia di-
ficultar la vida de nm cocinero hasta Ell
punto de hacerle totalmente ir1sufrible.
Los cocineros asf Sc 10 dijeror Demp-
sey. este trat6 de aplacarlos prone
tiendoles que ell case no Sc volyeria a
repetir. Pero Sc repitio y los honlbrcs
abandonaron la vivienda en- masa
Dempsey ton6 nuevos cocineros en-
for1na muy amable trato de reducir sa
siempre1 crecicnte hsta de comensales.
Pero estos no sc dieron por entendidos,
entonces Derpsey no pudo ghacer
otra cosa que seguir cuatruplicardo sus
pedidos de matsrias alimenticias y to-
mar nuevos cocineros a medida que los
antiguos exhaustos desmoralizados, Sc
tiespedian para siempre de la cocina.
Con Ell tempo Ell nombre de Dempsey
fgur6 acknowledgements en- alguna lista
negra de cocineros porque hubo un mo-
mento en- que SO ls contestaba invaria-
blernente en- las agencias de colocacio-
nes: ''No. no tenemos cocineros hoy.
. En- su mansion, sin cocineros, 81 pc-
bre Dempsey Sc seit6 meditar. Pero
csto no dur6 mucho tempo. La hora
de la comida Sc aproximaba y los visi-

|DAWS IN WEST
 FOR THREE WEEKS
Candidate to Go on Extended
 Speaking Tour

Locust Valley, N. Y, Aug. 3o.- Final preparations for the first ex- tended tour of his campaign were made here today by John w. Davis.
 Turning his face westward tomor- row, the democratic presidential nominee will set out on a trip that will carry him as far as Denver, Colorado, and will keep him In the west for about three weeks.
 Just how many addresses MT, Davis will deliver still is undeter- mined. but some of his advisers say that he is ;nsistent in his determina- ton not to launch upon a too in tensive campaign this early in the season.
 The democratic nominee has given a great deal of study to the subjects he will discuss in the west. Natural ly agricultural relief will form a principal topic, but other campaign issues. such as the tariff, tax reduc- ton and honesty in government, will be treated.
