kEARNS LAYS BARE
FACTS ON. DEMPSEY

In a story that cracks like the
lash of a whip, the King of Bally-
hoo" lays bare his entire relation
ship with Jack Dempsey, discios-
ing the real inside story of their
amazing partnership how he
took the champion as ham and
egg" pugilist and made of him the
greatest fighter of all time--how
he had the worries of his life
keeping Dempsey away from the
ladies>-and how he tried in vain
to keep him from marrying Estelle'
Taylor.
Written primarily as an answer
to Dempsey's recent statements,
this story actually is complete
account of Kearns own pictur-
esque career.
Pugiiist, soldier of : fortune.
Alaskan go1d-seeker, gambling
plunger, COW puncher, luHnberjack,
cabaret owner, and finally pro-
moter and manager for Jack
Dempsey--wllat a careeri Never
did a character in the widest
novel lead such a life.
And it's all hcre-evcry bit of il
the whole ganlut Of his exciting
experiences. He leaves nothing
out. however uncomplimentary it
may be TO himself. The result is
one of the most remarkable and
unusual stories ever written.

mashed lips and renewed his futile
charge after an elusive foe. Delaney
would stop. shoot in his left to the
body and follow through with his
uppercut sending Paul's head bacb
with a snap.
Jack Actually Outslugged Paul
The Bridgeport Adonis kept UP the
fast pace and actually outsluggeS
his heavier adversary at different
times. A new and better Delaney was
revealed to the huge crowd.
The fourteenth was q bad round
for the fading champion. Jack stag
gered his man with terrific right
cross and Berlenbach's knees knocked
together. Only Paul Berlenbach coulS
take Delaney's hard smashes and nc
go down.
What wonderful battle it was to
see. Berlenbach, the gamester
made an heroic stand in defense of his
title. He stubbornly contested every
inch of the way. Against any other
man the much improved assassin
would he returned an easy winner.
Making weight for the fight was :.
hardship for the former champion.
He is no longer a light-heavy. Aftes
drying out the day before he stifI
was overweight. His trainer worked
hard over him and rubbed more than
a pound off. This only goes to prove
Dan Hickey's assertion that his
fighter is better off fighting the bigger
fellows and not taking any chances
by reducing below his natural pound
age.

Since the FIRST .of July the Cubs

four games in which other clubs hit
them for double figures, Brooklyn
did most of that. Inv fact, the
Brooklyn batters have HIT the Cub

cept the Bostons, who made Is hits
I'm one game.
Pitchers have been known to hold
other teams down to margin OF
seven hits per game for quite q
period, but that Was in the days
when the pitchers were presumed to
those who try to- tower in these
days.
The Cubs pitchers are rating up
to what was predicted for them in
the Spring. Another point should
be noted. Alexander Is no longer
with the Cubs. R that old chap had
been pitching during July for Chi
cage the average might have been
brought to a nat eight hits. Even
