UP) Two court actions each intending to stop the Dempsey-Tunney fight will be heard Tuesday morning. EDWARD J. NEIL (Associated Press Sports Writer) LAKE VILLA, 111., Sept. 19. (IP) The calm assurance of a fatalist who believes the outcome of all fights is a matter of record before life itself was created, will steel Gene Tunney against the flailing fists of Jack Dempsey on Soldiers' Field Thursday night.

Thoughtfull, the big marine who stripped Dempsey of the heavyweight championship In the pelting rain at Philadelphia, today told of his conviction that the rejuvenated "Manassa mauler" must again face defeat and with it fistic oblivion and outlined his philosophy of life and belief in ring "men of destiny." "Fate," he said, "directs the paths of men from a common beginning, through disaster and triumph to a goal, an ending, that was pre-ordained before birth. Man cannot change his destiny. His best efforts only can help bring about the end conceived at the beginning of time." Building upon his philosophy and drawing from the history of his career that has at its sole aim In winning and retaining the heavyweight title, Tunney pointed out that the fate that made him a boxer almost against his will, also had provided the driving force that had built his body from that of a middleweight at 21 to a full hedged 190 pounder at 29. Finally fate carried him to the pinnacle of pugilism, despite many disappointments and against the overwheming opinion of the country's foremost fight critics. May Not Marry Although Tunney nexer expects to marry, fate, he believes, may some time bring across his path the woman destined to be his mate.

The tltleholder. Incidentally, looks with disfavor on marriage. Friendship of a light knd must be forced Into" the background in the reorganization of one's entire mode of living, he said, and the rarities of a "perfect union of mind and interest" not founded on "sex appeal" is in Itself foreboding. But Tunney has not left the defense of his title to Fate alone, despite his conviction of supremacy. Gene never really is out of training.

Five months ago the big champion entered the woods at Seculator, N. to box lightly with two sparring partners, tramp through the Adirondack hills, and build his body for the title task in the comparatively rare mountain air. When he left for the mid-west less than three-weeks ago, Tunney announced be bad attained "fighting edge." Is Four Pounds Heavy A trio of unfortunate occurrences have hampered the titleholder's final conditioning, at the beautiful country club here. A hot spell, during which it actually soared at times to 105 degrees, forced frequent layoffs when steady effort was most necessary to the attainment of perfect condition. As a result Gene weighs around 190 pounds today, almost fou notches above his best fighting weight.

Twice Injuries have handicapped Tunney's final training drive. Less than two weeks ago Chuck Wiggins, chief among the champion's sparr mates, accidentally butted Tunney over the right eye, inflicting a wound an inch long In the lid. Scarcely had the cut healed when Jackie Williams jabbed a gloved left thumb Into the same optic last Friday, causing a bruise and Inflammation of the eyeball that necessitated the attention of two eye specialists.

The teacher's influence will go far toward making them what they are to be. The adult does not know how much what be Is today, and what he does today was determined by the influence of teachers long ago. We cannot fully know the far-reaching effects of those early teachings, but it is probable that our whole lives are pretty definitely cast in the pattern some influential and admired teacher made for us. -It Is well that you welcome the teachers of your children, for next to- you, the teachers love your children most. It is true that teachers are employed for pay, but it is not true that they are mere servants of pay.

They are, at heart, lovers of children. I have never seen a teacher of many years service who did not love children. I have seen teach ers planning earnestly to help chll- dren who were nemnu, scnenung iO bring some new light to some child's life that would stimulate his lagging ambition, studying to find ways to develop stronger character In some weakling, working hours after school with children who were behind in their work and their studies and often times with children who did not appreciate the fact that the teacher was working over-time to help them, but thought merely of the fact that they were being kept In.
