that the former heavyweight king

kearns. Dempsey's general defense
to his former mana aGer's charges of
breach of contract is that the contract
on which kearns is suing was never
intended to bind them. but was drawn
as a "scrap of paper" in answer to
official demands. Reports that efforts
were being made to settle kearns'
suit persisted in the face of denials
by both sides. The attorneys said the

of the illness of Arthur Driscoll. chief
counsel for Dempsey, would be re-
sumed Monday.

Sary
While the agreement that Yale has
with Harvard and with Princeton does
not specify that transfers who have
played foot ball ut their original uni
versity may or may not be used In
games other than those against Grim
son and the Tigers, the intent of the
rule undoubtedly is that they may not
be played at all. Yet. if through some
such slip as occurred in the Caldwell

body's business save that of Harvard
and Princeton. who are parties to the
agreement and are bound by it.
Other colleges Yale has met do not
meet conditions of other sorts imposed
bv the Yale-HarvardP Princeton agree
ment. The Army, for instance, uses
transfers. and Dartmouth starts prac-
tice in September before Yale does.
Had Yale used Caldwell against
Princeton and Harvard, apologies. II
