The report Of the Hurricanes
rumored engagement, 1 found later,
had spread like wildhre across the
country To deny it would only
cause further glaring publicity, so
Billy Allen and / decided to keep
quiet. We made plans to leave Los
Angeles and to head back for the
East Coast.
But meanwhile, Billy had a bril-
liant idea. Jack Dempsey, the
great one himself, was in Reno. ..,-
vada, at the time, trying to stage
some sort of a comeback. He APP
peared to be ready and willing to
take on all contenders-for a price,
Billy DECIDED that a victory over
Jack was just what the Hurricane
needed to be ter his already ex-
cellent reputation. So on the way
East, we stopped off at Reno.
Billy dropped " to see Jacks
manager and asked for q fight. He
painted the Hurricane in glowing
colorS and showed him the record
our 10y Tad compiled in the ten
months he had worked for us.
The Hurricane can lick Demp-
sey any day in The week." Billy
went on earnestly. You come
around 81. look him over, give us
the fight. and clean up any way
you want to. But-give us the
fight
Go out n get yourselves a
reputation" Jacks manager growl-
ed at us. How do you expect me
to believe all that stuff you're
handin' out?"
And for a week that was all we
got out of the ManaSSa Mauler'S
manager. OF course, we could I'M
derstand his attitude, and didn't
blame him a bit for he stand he
had taken. Dempsey was on his
way up the ladder again, and his
opponents had to be hand picked to
avoid a calamity. One setback, espe-
cially at the hands If some IN
known, might even ruin his repu-
tation entirely. The great Jack
couldn't afford to take any chances.
We stayed around Reno two
weeks, the hurricane meanwhile 60
