DEMPSEY NEVER 70 RE-ENTER RING Former Champion Has Made His Mark a5 2 Promoter - Miami Beach, Fla., ¥eb, 11.—The L fight from a financial standpeint—a Buccess of the Sharkey-| success now assured beyond any fur- ther doubt—means something of leven greater importance to the orld of sport, the permanent re- tirement of Jack Dempsey as a fight- nggman. e former cnampion will never nter the ring again. Dempsey has made his mark as a | [promoter and his next job will be in hat capacity for the Madison Square Garden corporation. . The amaszing Dempsey—the metamorphosis of the an from Manassa—has no parallel n the annals of sport. It is a far pry from the grimy hobo who had his first view of the east from be- eath a freight car to the energetic, polished business man who is the enter of interest at Miami Beach hese days. Jack has come far, but is greatest stride toward success as taken here. Until the success of the present nture was assured, the ex-cham- pion’s future was in doubt. If he hadn't megsured up to the exacting pecifications to his task here, Dempsey might have been driven back to the ring, probably to be aten by some younger man. Jack's iggest fight was the one he waged 0 establish himself here, and he on it. Perhaps he won because he as in titis fight with heart and soul : in put with anothet than himself ind. Tex Rickard was Jack's in- piration. He was fighting for Tex d won for himaself. To those who knew Jack Dempsey n his fighting/days, when his chosen ompanions were the parasites of pugilism, the spectacle of Dempsey, | he promoter, is a constant source pt wonderment. The millionaires ho are working and playing with he ex-champion here, their wives vho are vying for his attendance at heir social affairg, are not impressed by his former prestige in the ring. ey respect a new Dempsey—not he one the crowd followed.

There will be quite & little competition for Jack's serv- ices when this Sharkey-Stribling fight is over, and the competition will be a sort in which the promo- ters who want Jack to fight for them will not even figure. / "It is difficult, in view of his for- mer position as a fighting man, to portray the new Dempeey adequate- ly, Dempsey as a business man, working out the complicated prob- lems involved in the promotion of the forthcoming bout. Dempsey as the chosen eacort of milliodaires wives and daughters at the num ous social functions of an exclusive community, Dempsey, with a thou- sand and one things on his mind, still unaffected by the prize ring he once knew and a ready hand shake for everyone. Radio talks, business conferences, public appearances, dreasy dinners, family parties, flying trips across the | peninsula in the interests of the fight, these make up Jack's busy days. But it is in his intimate contacts with the men of solid financial worth that 'he has scored his most important success. “Jack’s a wonder,” say the mil- lionaires to one another. “Jack's a charming upaffected boy,” their wives declare. “Jack's a far sounder busineas man than Tex Rickard ever was and will go farther,” declare those of the Madison Square Garden corporation who are assoclated with him. Ana 0 the prize ring is to lose its most colorful figure of modern |times. Dempsey is going on to big- ger things. ‘New York Absconder Is Hunted in Canada Montreal, Que., Feb. 11 UP—An | Assistant United States attorney and a department of justice agent were searching border towns 50 miles |south of here today for David Stein- hardt, absconding New York bank- ruptey receiver.

He faces Welker Cochran, of Hollywood, a former champion, in the 12th match of the round robin tournament at the Level club, Despite the fact that Matsuyama, a “dark horse” if there ever was one, tops the field with three straight vic- tories, Cochran, a ‘“ingerous and game player in the pinch, is the fav- orite at odds of 5 to ¢. These two, with young Jake Schaefer, alone are in the running {for the title now held by Edouard Horemans of Belgium. Horemans' Eric Hagenlacher of Germany, and Felix Grange of France, all have fallen by the wayside. It Matsuyama can down Cochran and follow through with another victory over Schaefer the title will be his without dispute. If he loses one or the other of his two remain- ing matches he still is assured of a tie, no matter what Schaefer and {Cochran accomplish. If the little {Japanese loses both of his matches, he will automatically be eliminated. Four matches still are to be play- ed in the tournament which is to close on Wednesday night, but only three of them have any bearing on the title hunt. In addition to Mat- suyama's contests with Cochran and Schaefer the latter pair must aiso meet in a duel of their own. Thus two victories by any one of the three leaders will carry with them the championship. But the fact remains that the Japanese who failed to win a single match in the 1927 tournament in Washington, holds the whip hand. |He can afford to lose one match, | Cochran and Schaefer, with two vic- tories in three starts apiece, will be | eliminated it they lose again.
