But it just naturally leads into the rise to fistic fame of one William Har- riso® Dempsey. About 10 years after Hiram Demp- sey, erstwhile school teacher of Lo- gan, W. Va., moved to the San Luis Valley of Colorado, the stork paid a visit-to the little Dempsey ranch, bes tween Antonio and,Managsa. Then it was—June 24, 1895—that William. Har- rison first saw the light of day. In the early years of his life Wil- liam gat bits of schooling here an there, and plenty of outdoors and fresit air. It was the latter that played’a big part in his growing into the husky: of the family. Handy With Mitts | when the Dempsey tribe moved to] Montrose, on the western | slope of Colorado, dad and mother Dempsey had six boys.. They .werp all handy with their mitts, sometimes at milking, sometimes at peach picking, but‘ most of the time in an athletic way. “If there was,a basebalk giime, a foot- ball mixup, a wrestling affair or a box- ing go in the neighborhood, it was a safe bet that the six Dempseys would be on deck. Willlam and Bernard,-an jolder brother, usually came out on top. Bernard leaned strongly to fistic encounters and finally dropped his own first name, prefixed that of the once famous Jack Dempsey, RAIL WORKERS PAY WILLBE - CUT BY JURY Railroad Labor Board Decides Conditions Justifies its Action . | ———d \ 4 TAKE ‘UP OTHER CLASSES Chicago, May 19.—The’ United States railroad board announced its inten- tion of revising downward the wages of more than 1,000,000 unskilled rail workers by next July The amount of the decfease was not announced but will be, made public dn June 1. At the ‘same atime’ the board an- nounced that it would<hold hearings on June 6 regarding proposals by the roads to decreayé the wages of other classes of employes and would alsy, make its decisiops in these cases ef- fective on the same date. A. similar decision in the case of skied workers would mean.a cut in.the pay of prac- tically every railroad worker in the country on July 1 and would affect approximately two million men. ~ The announcement today which said ;that “prevgifing conditions justify to some extent, yet to be determined, a readjustment downward of wages,” was entirely unexpected and came lonly a few hours after the close of | the hearings which have been in pros- | ress since early in April. Neither the roads or the repfesentatives of the unions had expected any amnounce- ment for several weeks. On’ July 20,1920, the board ren- dered a decision increasing, the pay of allaclasses of railway employes ap- proximately 21 per:cent or about.$600,- “® year.

Bernard Fizsles Out William watched Bernard in alot of his battles, and he saw his. older brother fizzled out_gs a prizefighter. In:the meantime there was alfalfa to be cut, freestones to be picked and cattle to be cared for.on the Dempsey raych. William was long on the peach end of it, but managed to slip away for an occasional fight with some kid:in the town of.Montrose. at He finally. grew into the town champ. He had licked every one of the village scrappets except one, And this one and William were buddies and had never mixed in a {tie way.
