Long ago Kearns patched up his feud with Dempsey. The célor- ful Manassa Mauler and the glib doctor how are good friends. It was in Dempsey’s Broadway res- taurant the other night that Kearns made one of his classic remarks, He was talking about the chatices | of a Maxim-Moore bout in! Omaha. | “Maxim always goes best west of the Rockies,” he said, quickly shifting his eyes to see if the late watch was up on its geography. The next afternoon in Jim Norris’ office, they. were talking business on that Omaha venture, Somebody suggested this probably would be the first title fight ever held in Omaha. “Who thought of Omaha?” Nortis was asked. “Doe stopped in there, hitchhik- ing back from Las Vegas,’ said Jim with a grin. It was a good gag because Kearns has a special soft spot in his heart for Las Vegas, where the wheels spin afid the action is live- ly. A couple of years back he was talking of a “fight to the finish” in Las Vegas between Pal Joey ‘and Archie the Gypsy. The last man Maxim “finished” was Sugar Ray Robinson in a heat wave but let’s hot go into that. 2 The Doc almost met himself working both sides of the street when he suggested he was pre- pared to offer a big guarantee for Moore to defend his title against Castellani if Rocky should upset Olson. : “Are you by-passing Maxim?’, a fellow asked. Kearns explained the dates would be different, noth- ing was definite and what was the | matter with trying to get in a plug for the Castellani-Olson bout. Sometime when they get asbes- tos curtains for television sets, they ought to try the Doc Kearns story on “This is Your Life.” Of course, you'd have to give the Doc a piece of the show.
