  David Jack - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
David Bone Nightingale Jack (April 3, 1899 - September 10, 1958) was an English footballer, son of Bob Jack, and the first footballer in the world to be transferred for more than £10,000.
In 1928 he was signed by Herbert Chapman's Arsenal for £10,890 (nearly double the previous record); famously, Chapman negotiated the transfer with Bolton's representatives in a hotel bar, his tactic being to drink gin and tonics without any gin in them, while letting the other side drink as much as they possibly could.
Jack was a success at Highbury, becoming a regular straight away, and was the club's top scorer through the late 1920s and early 1930s.

A bewildered David then has to run a race against Russ for which he didn't actually qualify, discovers the girl he had only worshipped from afar (incidentally Russ's girlfriend) is now his one true love and in the course of the race finds the confidence he's always been lacking to succeed.
David makes a suggestion that they forget the poker game; that they never even look at the cards each of them has but instead double the stakes and wager it on David beating Russ at the track meet.
Jack promptly shoots Ross's ideas down in flames as being boring and jaded, and comes up with a theme of Back to 1929 (which is when Jack was 18).

 Jazz/Jerry Jazz Musician/David Amram discusses Jack Kerouac in an exclusive interview with Jerry Jazz Musician
That is what I did with Jack, and that's why he liked to do the readings with me because he knew I was there for him, and for our ability to blend the poetry and the music.
Jack didn't want to associate himself with that because he felt it was betraying that generation of kids who were being led by a bunch of opportunists, and he correctly saw that today's fashionable media star revolutionary becomes tomorrow's Wall Street broker, which is what happened to a lot of the people during that time.
Jack, in spite of all his health problems and his drinking, was really serious about the ideals he believed in, which included a life long spiritual search, a universal compassion for all people, and a deep respect and appreciation for the country that had given he and his family beautiful opportunities.

I believe that Jack exhibited the same qualities shown by people such as Andrew Carnegie, a fellow Scots entrepreneur, and many present day tycoons who seem to be lauded for their abilities.
