Rickard himself estimates he has paid Dempsey over $2,500,000 in purses in the past nine years. With the | man-killer’'s name have been asso- ciated the greatest gates in his- tory—over §2,000,000 at Philadel- phia and close to $3,000,000 for the battle that brought Dempsey and Tunney together for the sec- |ond time at Chicago. 18 Since the day in 1916 when the lean, hungry, nut-brown Dempsey rode into New York on the brake- beams from Colorado to bheat Wild Burt Kenney and John Lester in hurricane battles, fis. tiana has not seen his equal in dramatizing ring action. Dozens of the weights fell under his thudding fists. Between 19156 and July 4, 1919, when he fought Jess Willard for the heavyweight champion- ship at Toledo, Dempsey knocked out 43 men, -defeated ten, ‘lost twice and was knocked out once. After crushing the huge Wil lard in three reunds, Dempsey whipped Billy Miske in three and Billy Brennan in 12 during 1920. Georges Carpentier, first of two successive foreign threats, came along in 1921 to take a drubbing in four rounds and a good share of the first $1,600,000 purse on record. Dempsey's title defense against Luis Angel Firpo, the massive South American, lasted less than two rounds but added a spectacular chapter to ring his- tory. The champion floored Luis seven times in the first frame before being knocked out of the ring himself. Earlier that year Dempsey whipped lesser heavy- Tom Gibbons WHY CHEVROLET IS THE MOST ECON- OMICAL LOW PRICED CAR Chevrolet is with Oil Filter. Chevrolet is with Air Cleaner.

The editors of the dictionary, desiring to omit no name worthy of inclusion, have given out in advance of publication the list of subjects of biographies in the first volume and invite from all sources suggestions as to ,addi- tions. These may be sent to Dr, Allen Johnson, editor-in-chief, 602 Hill Building, Washington, D. C. The purpose of those sponsoring and preparing the dictionary fis to make it the most complete biographical reference work and through the learned societies co- operating in it, it is expected to obtain the broadest possible sup- port from _the standpoint of gcholarsh@p and thoroughness. One of the outstanding phases of the work of the editors has heen the attempt to restore for- gotten reputations, to give promi- nence to Americans who have made some valuable centribution to the national life but who, by some caprice of fortune, have been robbed of their. fame." The dictionary will not include the biography of any living Amer- ican. Achievement of one sort or another will be the test for in- cluding a biography in the work, but virtue alone will not be the basis, for men of evil influence will niot be ignored.

A three-year period of inactivity that followed rusted the great fighting machine and in Septem- ber, 1926, amid pouring rain, Gene Tunney slashed the champion to ribbons and took the title. It was that fight and the constant pound- ing of right hand smashes on Dempsey’s left cheek that damag- ed a nerve center, forced Demp- into a dark room for two weeks, and left its mark in a slight twitching of cheek and eye- lid muscles. In his second fight with Tunney, Dempsey suffered comparatively slight cuts over both eyes. —————— ATTENTION EASTERN STARS Juneau Chapter No. 7, 0.
