JACK FLAYs LOUGHRAN

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., Sept. 1S.-
The latest punch in the nose Demp-
sey received was delivered after his
workout at the dog track here this
afternoon. He did not know about
the court action while he was en-
gagged with his sparring partners,
but the viciousness with which ne
tore into Tommy Loughran was an
indication that he expected the latest
thrust from Jack Kearns.
Loughran felt the sting of the
champions punch and came near hit
ting the canvass. The fleet Phila-
delphian used all of his trickery to
escape it, but at the close of their
two rounds, Dempsey drove him in
corner, cutting loose with a left
hook that landed squarely on the
chin. Loughran's knees sagged and
he fell into Dempsey's arms. Demp-
sey engaged in his usual five founds
of glove work today, ripping and
tearing into his three sparring mates
with reckless abandon He boxed
the first round against Ioanv Krue-
ger, the. German light heavyweight
champion. Krueger was driven all
over the ring under a furious bat
tering. Loughran boxed the next
two rounds while Marty Burke faced

MORE LEGAL VERBIAGE
tISv Dispatch A. p. Wirel

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 18. Jack
Dempsey, worlds champion, and
Gene Tunney, challenger a., for his
heavyweight crown, have an oppor-
tunity to meet in court room here
next Tuesday but not as antagonists:
The suit, said to have been brought
by Jack Kearns, Dempsey's former
manager to prevent Tex Rickard, pro-
moter, from paying the fighters any
money before they honestly fulfill
their contract in the ring at the
Sesqui- Centennial stadium next Thurs
day night, came up in common pleas
court today, and because of the de-
fectiveness of the bill of complaint,
the case went over until Tuesday.
The defect was the failure OF the
complainant to name Dempsey and
Tunney as defendants with Riclard.
The court allowed the bill to be
amended and gave ample time for the
fighters to be legally notified so that
they can make their appearance.
However, it is not likely that Demp-
sey and Tunney will leave their
training camps, as their attorneys
can appear for them. The defect in
the bill was pointed out by Ira j.
Williams, counsel for Rickard, who
also argued for the dismissal of the
suit on the ground that it was in
sufficient in averments. The court
took under advisement Williams mo-
tion to dismiss the suit.
After court adjourned, Tex Rickard
gave out a statement that tho suit
was merely another gesture on the
part Of Kearns to find out where
Dempsey's money is, so an attach
ment can be made
Kearns has a suit pending in New
York to recover $3.50, 900 from Demp
sey.
The suit was brought in the name
of Sol Wittenberg, an investigator
for the law firm, of which John r.
K. Scott is a member. He is describ-
ed in the bill of complaint as a tax
payer and ticket nolder." The bill
asserts that to pay money to the
fighters before the fight would be
defrauding the state and the tax
payer plaintiff, if there were not

Today's exhibition was important in
that it apparently showed Tunney's
lip well on the way to recovery.
When the stroudsburg camp was
opened, a cut following cold sore,

uneasiness among tho attaches and

or design Delaney popped hard left

astrous result.

ney in the ring until the sesqui cli-

NAL boxing rounds on the program
today when Tunney put on the gloves
with newspaper reporter in his
room. The reporter was a fair fight

Although the Cardinals now defend
