CHICAGO, Sept 30 (A. -The Tunney-Dempsey affair echoed In Evanston Police Court yesterday in a somewhat strange proceeding. On the surface it looked like just another case, Rudolph L. Labahn being fined $25 and costs for driving an automobile while drunk. But there was more to it.

Labahn was driving his car toward Chicago Sept 22, when he met Leut Carl Ekman of the Evanston police, a friend. Labahn displayed a $10,000 bank roll and announced he wai on his vfay to wager $5000 on Tunney. Lieut Ekman, an ardent Deipsey fan, regarded this as throwing money away. He sought to reason with Labahn, to show him the financial folly of wagering on Tunney, but his friend insisted. Finding argument useless, the police officer arrested his friend for driving while drunk.

When Labahn finally effected his release it was too late to bet. Tunney had won. At the hearing in Justice Court. Labahn protested that his arrest had cost him $5000. Eventually the loss was slightly higher, counting tne fine of $25 and costs.
