Dempsey Celebrates Birthday in Santa Monica
Former heavyweight champion Jack Dempsey turned 63 in his Santa Monica apartment with four granddaughters visiting. He urged boxing to reform its self policing, noting a national czar or commissioner might help, but urging the sport to clean up its own affairs. Dempsey, born William Harrison Dempsey in Manassa Colorado on June 24 1895, blamed the lack of top fighters on the disappearance of small neighborhood clubs.
