Dempsey Kolled Off Field in Saratoga Training Scramble
World heavyweight champion Jack Dempsey was knocked out not in a ring but during a baseball session at Saratoga Lake with camp attendants and cottage owners. He batted well, collecting six hits and driving in runs, then shifted to first base before resuming training for the September 14 title defense against Luis Angel Firpo in New York. He is in good condition aside from a mild cold and restless due to rest.
