JACK DEMPSEY AS HERO OF UNDERWORLD MELODRAMA
K. O. NIGHTLY
Jack Dempsey, the former heavy. weight world champion, graduated from the price ring to the stage at the Majestic Theatre, as a coater- monger, with Estelle Taylor, his wife, in "The Big Fight,” by Max March and M. H. Gropper, produced by David Belasco.
Dempsey as Jack Dillon surprised everybody by his stage presence, He had little, to say except such lines as, "I say so" and "Is that so?" He acted modestly, quietly, and naturally, however, and brought the audience to its fest in the last act, when In a two-round realistic ight he knocked out the villain. "Battling" Baker, played by Ralph Smith, the Californian glant, to was one of Heeney's 'sparring part- ners for his fight with Tunney.
Smith was knocked cold for the count, and, as far as the audience could see, it was a real, milling bout. This part entails so much endurance that Jack Herman, a prominent pugilist, will alternate with Smith in the role, Dempsey knocking them out on alternate nights.
