NEW YORK, Aug. 3.-Doing his
old-time stuff as a warrior on his
way to battle instead of a cham
.pion, ducking boxing commissioners,
challengers, process servers and gen.
eral annoyers. Jack Dempsey. heavy
weight champion Of the world, was
returning East today.
Dempsey headed into New York
announcing that he was going to
look around some shopping places
for few days and then start for
White Sulphur Springs, where he
will begin training for the defense
of his title against Gene Tunney, a
contest scheduled, but not yet IL
censed, for Sept. 16 in the Yankee
stadium.
The champion had his usual line.
I'm ready to do the fighting. I'll
leave the worrying to some one
else." he said
The some one else" in other
cases. was Jack Kearns. his former
manager. but in this instance he
must have meant that Tex Richard
was the custodian Of the wellknown
bag.
! No License
Richard, it seems, has two big
lighters signed for fancy prices, a
date and a baseball park at his dis
position, and no license,
Rickard. 1t was understood today,
is prepared to ask the boxing com
mission for permission to charge $50
each for ringside seats. The ruling
of the commission now is that not
more than $25 can be charged for
admission to championship contests.
but George Brewer, the legal com
missioner of the board, said re-
Gently II was only a. ruling and
could be changed by a majority vote.
Another of the scores of reports
heard today was that Richard had
effected a reconciliation between
Dempsey and Jack Kearns and had
headed off legal action by Kearns.
whose contract with Dempsey ex-
pires today.
ES Kearn's Possibility
II KeaEhs could prove that the
contract between Dempsey and
Rickafd Had been signed before to-
day, he could ask the courts for his
cut of the champions purse.
Dempsey also was notified today
that. Chica go promoters had applied
for an.Sinjunction in the Federal
Court M Denver to restrain Demp-
sey from, fighting "any one any
where" until he had fought Wills in
Chicago. If the motion is granted
Dempsey would have to appear in
Denver on Aug. Z, and if he had to
appear at that time the date for the
fight here might have to be post
poned.
