DEMPSEY ON

By Associated Press.
SARATOGA Springs. N. Y. Sept.
13.-— Deliberately selecting the
13th on which to travel because he
believes it will bring him good luck.
Jack Dempsey today deserts his cot-
tage on the. edge of Saratoga Lake
to move on to New York. where to-
morrow night he. will defend his
world heavyweight championship
against Luis Angel Firpo.
The champion accompanied by a
little bunch of followers plans to
motor to Albany. 40 miles away, and
board a private car there for the trip
to New York.
There was a haunted appearance
about the deserted camp today as
the champion prepared for his de-
parture. The sparring partners were
gone; the two cottages in “\hich
they lived were empty. the outdoor
ring in which Dempsey unleashed
his punches was being dismantled.
Dempsey spent. yesterday very
much in seclusion, reading a batch
of mail and telegrams sent by ad-
mirers throughout the world. His
only public appearance was when
he took a walk over the roads sur—
rounding the lake. ‘
Manager Kearns will be in charge
