Dempsey Rickard Clash Delayed By Absence At Board
New York July 21 The New York state athletic commission cannot act for Jack Dempsey by proxy. Commission members told Tex Rickard that Dempsey or his legitimate manager must appear before the board to arrange his proposed match with Harry Wills.

Mickey Walker also cannot finalize terms with Dave Shade until his manager orders. The commission had set the Shade match before August 15. A flyweight elimination plan and a Gyplenge broadcast by Mik Vest touched the lighter weights.
