Dempsey halts action on bout with Beckett
New York Sept 13 Jack Dempsey manager Jock Kearns waved aside a 140000 offer from Redmond Barry for a London bout next April between Dempsey and Joe Beckett. He said no decision or definite plans would be made until after Beckett vs Carpentier in November. Barry claimed Beckett would beat Carpentier in three or four rounds, a wager Barry offered at 4 to 1. Kearns laughed and stood by his earlier decision. Barry arrived after cabling for today’s appointment to discuss arrangements for the heavyweight champions’ match. Post luncheon Kearns noted a possible motion picture deal for Dempsey and would not alter his stance.

It recalls a drought year of 1842 with 254 curves and claims Bimbo spoiled ball gazes and stood at the plate with the ease of an army mule.
