HANDS OFF
POLICY IS
ADOPTED
National Commander of American
Legion Will Not Take Part in
Dempsey Controversy.
By Heary L. Farrell
NEW YORK. Jan. 21. U. P.) The
American Legion, as a unit, will
take no part in the Jack Dempsey war
record controversy.
A policy of "hands off" has been
announced from Its- national head
quarters. In a message to Jack Kearns, the
champion's manager, Franklin d'Olier,
national commander, sounds a clear
note when he said:
"It Is not a funotlon of the American
Legion to review acts of the govern
ment during' the war in connection with
the classification of men subject to the
selective service act, or to review the
claims of any individual who finds it
necessary to justify his exemption from
military service."
This answer was made to Kearns
request for a hearing on the "slacker
charges."
Kearns has given an ear to the rum
bling's from some organizations of
former soldiers who express sentiment
against giving Dempsey a huge pile of
money for fighting in the ring when
he failed to fight the biggest tight of
all.
The latest assault on Dempsey comes
from the Home Sector, a periodical pub
lished by the former Stars and Stripes
staff, in which the editorial pours forth
some choice sarcasm on his title of
"America's great fighter." It reads:
"Hero of a few weeks In the shipyards,
hero of a few minutes' battle with Jess
Willard, hero of the fur overcoat and
the fat bank account, hero of the mov
ing pictures at several thousand dollars
a week, hero of a few peaceful and
eminently profitable years In the United
States, while the greatest world's cham
pionship was being fought several
thousand miles away!"

GAME BOOSTED BY

Charley White, in Interview With
Ed Smith, Says Nice Words
About Sport
CHARLEY WHITE, Chicago boxer,
who signs himself "legitimate light
weight champion of the world," because
of newspaper decisions over Willie
Ritchte and Freddie Welsh when they
held the crown, had some nice things to
say about the boxing game in Portland
and Seattle when he returned to the
Windy City. In an Interview with Ed
Smith, well known referee and writer, in
a Chicago paper, Smith says:
"Charley White is back from the
Northwest with some nice words for the
game around Portland and Seattle.
They go 10 rounds to a referee's deci
sion In the former place and six two
minute rounds In the latter city. Clay
Hite, Seattle promoter, started 12 shows
and had eight of them stopped by the
authorities, but finally won out and is
going along fine now. It cost him quite
a sum to get Charley out there, but he
got results in good financial returns.
"Jack Grant Is the real promoter In
Portland, while Frank Kendall heads
things at Milwaukie, about eight miles
from Portland. Charley had two bat
tles, drawing in six rounds with Eddie
Shannon in Seattle and stopping Muff
Bronson in 1 minute and 40 seconds at
Milwaukie,
"Charley speaka of Denver Ed Mar
tin, old time negro heavyweight, as a
most capable referee in the Milwaukie
bouts.
"Charley has been offered a battle In
Denver around the thirtieth with
Mackey, a Denver boy, as an opponent."
