SPORTS. Ne COURT IN INDIANA GRANTS INJUNCTION AGAINST BOUT Chicago Coliseum Club, Filer of Petition, Aims Now to Enter Suit to Make Legal Action Operative Also in Pennsylvania. By the Associated Press. NDIANAPOLIS, September 14.—The famous ten-dollar’ contract calling for a bout between Jack Dempsey and Harry Wills, negro challenger, has bobbed up again, this time as the basis of a Superior Court in- junction to prevent the champion’s match with Gene Tunney at Phil- adelphia September 23 Judge Clinton H. Givan, holding that ownership of the much-disputed contract represented a property right, granted the petition of the Chicago Coliseum Club for an injunction last night, in spite of the fact that prize fighting is not sanctioned by Indiana law. % Assertions of B. C. Clements, president of the Coliscum Club, that suit would be entered in Pennsylvania immediately to make the injunction operative in that State were met by emphatic declarations from Promoter Tex Rickard that he was “going right to the limit to put on the fight as planned.” “Refore signing Dempsey I went thoroughly into the claims of the Chi- cago Coliseum Club, and was con vinced that it was without merit,” Rickard said at Philadelphia. “The club promised Dempsey a million-dol- Jar purse, but did not put up a nicke It tried to hold the champion up. The orphan contract, passed through several signed by Dempsey in Los last Winter and bound by ment to the champion of a $10 biil, according to Clements. Tt called for a first payment of $400,000 to the ch pion y In August, and the Coli- seum Club exhibited at the hexring here a photostatic copy of a check for this amount, which it claimed it was trying to induce the champion to accept.

We dec noa trip Iy after a while, and we made & preparations for the journey The day the ship sailed you would have thought that Ziegfeld had sent his combined beauty chorus down to see the champion go o sea. Of course, it might have heen that Bheik Dempsey was not the only at- traction. There were Sheiks Damon Runyon, Teddy Hayes, Joe Ren- famin, Tommy Lyman and Bill Hal- ligan leading the parade. Plenty of heart busters turned loose on that trip. Al Woods and the Dolly sisters were on board. Jack and Rosita Dolly got a crush on each other, though T'll admit that competition was stirring all the time. It was a merry-go-round trip, and when the hoat landed at Southampton every- hody got a brass ring. Visits Finest Homes. While in London Dempsey proved that he could move into any social whirl and make good. He looked the part, and he was as much at ease in a drawing room as if he had been in the ring. He wore clothes well, the surest test, and it took a hardened old soctal _barnacle to outsalve Dempsey. With the blue bloods he was a lion, a pet. He visited the finest homes in London, some titled ones and some without titles, but uo matter where he went well received and carried accordingly. He met rovalty with the same hoy- ish enthusiasm and easy manner that he met ordinaries. He was the guest at the big Epsom Downs race track the day following our arrival. n Tisdale, and they liked him. with the King, who sat next to us. but T must say that Dempsey got eater ovation than the first man of Fngland.

Nor- mile pointed out that the right to appeal existed. Judge Givan's Statement. The view that Pennsylvania courts would have to take cognizance of the Indiana injunction was expressed by Judge Givan In a statement after court had adjoourned. “If the Pennsylvania courts follow the Constitution, they cannot help but issue n similar or, at least, a tem- porary injunction. No extensive hearing would Dbe conducted in Pennsylvania, such as was conducted here. The property-right phase of the contract was stressed by the Coli- seum Club's attorneys formed an important part of the judge's ruling. The jurist held, that although a prize fight is not sanctioned by In- diana law, and that an Indiana court could not properly take judleial cog- nizance of a prize fight contract, the State did recognize the property ts existing in the contract, and the champion should be en- Jolned from engaging in any con- tests until he had carried out the contract with the plaintiffs. The injunction proceedings were instituted here when Dempsey stop- ped off in Indianapolis on his way from Los Angeles to his Eastern life with great rapidity.
