SANi FRANCISCO. Sept. 6.
(By Associated Press.) Jack
Dempsey, heavyweight champion
pugilist, emerged partially from
retirement, in the midst of a fight
card at the ball park here this af
ternoon to box four exhibition
rounds, two each with two oppon
ents:
Appearing stripped for action
in an American ring for the first
time in more than a year, the
champion looked to be in tip top
condition. No superfluous fat was
evident. Though he did not ex
tend himself in the exhibition, he
displayed fast footwork, v his fa
mous weaving style of attack and
an assortment of short, fast
hook3. . . .
Dempsey'a opponents. Bill La
rue of; the Olympic club, former
national amateur heavyweight
champion, and.'JCowboy'Ed War
ner, clowned it about much to the
amusement of the crowd.
The main even; was a 10 round
draw between Lou Paluso of Salt
Lake City and . Tommy., Cello of
San Francisco, lightweights. The
referee's decision was not received
with unanimous accord, many
fans contending that .Cello had
earned the call.
