Dempsey departed last night, un-
announced, for Kansas City, pre-
sumably on his way to Hollywood,
his first trip home since the Shar.
key -Stribling bout. He was evil
IDENTIFY satisfied at the close Of the
day that all details necessary at
the present time had been worked
out. He announced previously that
he intended staying here at least
one more day for further confer
ences, but his sudden departure was
taken to mean only the old Demp-
sey impulse to start somewhere in
a hurry.
The former champion and Charles
F. Hall, president of the Coliseum,
were together throughout the day
and laid the groundwork for the
new alliances fall operations.
scheduled to start in October.
Dempsey visited the arena in
company with Hall and Henry
Forester, q Coliseum director,
and suggested several improve
ments to be made during the i'm
terveniHg summer months.
The life of the new alliance now
| depends entirely, it seems, on the
mooted rule in this State concern
ing residential promoters. Demp-
sey, when he applies for a promo
ter's license, will come under the
classification of a nonresident.
However, both Jack and Hall are
confident the former will be eligible
under the now accepted interpreta-
tino of the rule and the boxing COM
mission has previously intimated
this will be true.
Popular prices will be the Dempsey
promotional policy here, he said
Wen figure on a standard top
price of $500" Jack declared, and
will not vary from this unless an
extraordinary attraction Is secured
Popular prices are the key to a
successful boxing enterprise, and
we're certainly sold on the idea"
1t is too far ahead at this time
Dempsey said, to actually figure or
the opening card. The former
champion regrets the absence OF
good cards at this time.
''There aren't enough good
fighters, DOpUIar fighters. at the
present time," he said. "AlI we
can do is hope that the summer
season will bring out sOme."
Dempsey was evasive as usual or
the inevitable question of whether
he will make an effort to regair
the heavyweight title in one bis
spectacle this year, He admitted
that sufficient money might temp
him to go through the tedious train
ing grind and meet one of ths
current contenders. but at the END
he left the impression that none OF
the present offers look that good t.

The Washington times., 1929-06-01

Everyone knows that the joint is
padlocked and the key in possession
of Stanford University, yet it is a
quaint, old custom of the East to go
| through with the thing, regardless,
so that this afternoon we will have
the interesting spectacle of a lot of
earnest young men running them
selves rampant in order to prove
what everyone knew in the first
place, to wit, that the contest was,
and is, no contest.
AS a matter Of truth, there can't
be much of a contest about the fact
that the best team in the field, by
long odds, is to take title to what be-
longs to it Inherently and by right
of might. In fact, the games could
go down in the records as typical
Eastern championship of the modern
era il it wasn't for Mr.. Reginald
Bowen, of Pittsburgh, and his con.
suming ambition. Before we pro-
ceed with Mr.. Bowen, however, it
may be said that the meet is typical
because the East expects to rally in
very sensational way and finish
no worse than, third in it's own
| games.
Only for the eighth year in the
last nine is a California entry
to win the championship; only
for the third year i'm succession
is the California entry in ques.
tiOn to be Stanford. That's
making il close; so did the tailor
when he cut the suit with a pair
of cuticle scissors. Stanford,
with some % points coming to it
already in four field events, will
score about 35 i'm all. which will
be ample, also sufficient, and
what / really mean is enough.
1t has remained for Mr.. Bowen
to give bit of tempo to a situa-
tion that otherwise might have all
the snap and sparkle of a bill of
lading. This bright. young man is
about to essay a trick which they
say is humanity impossible, even
If he does do it, He is going to
compete in three races within a
period of As minutes, namely, the
semifinals of the 100 at $40 O'Clock,
the finals of the quarter mile at
1926 o'clock, and the finals Of the
100 at 3:55 o'clock. Mr.. Bowen
might have simplified matters by
starting in the two dashes, instead
of the 100 and 44O but he is not the
man for equivocations and subter-
fuges. He wants to do 1t the hard
way. r.
Not since the early eighties and
the days of Everett Wendell, of
Harvard has any man won the cen.
tury. furlong and quarter at one
and the same intercollegiate meet
In WendelPs time, the affair was a
sort of grocer's picnic: today it is
mad stampede, in which talent
fairly overruns itself in the COM
mon, human desire to win.
1t is the general idea here
that Bowen has the speed to
win either Of tOday's races.
But not both. His trial quarter
in O:48 2-5 yesterday seems to
make him a natural" In that
event, although he will take
lot OF chasing from Morrison.

and st. Clair. Syracuse.
