r Egad, folks, ! announce to
the world that Eugene Tun-
ney is now the possessor of the
worlds heavyweight title, However.
else you have learned the news, my
statement is official. If you will
pardon me for reminding you that in
one of my articles | emphatically
picked Tunney to go the limit of ten
rounds and win the crown.
At exactly $50 p. m. by another
gentleman's watch, a great cheer
reverberated through the immense
stadium, and l met the occasion by
arising and taking a bow. As a co.
incidence, Tunney happened to be
making his way toward the ring and
shared in the general applause. He
was wearing the black silk dressing
previous day. A few minutes later
Jack Harrison Dempsey made his
appearance surrounded by two score
police and his retinue. He was

picking two winners. The rain won
each round by wide margin. After
many introductions and fussing
about the ring, the combatants were
called to the center for instructions.
At the opening bell | was very in
terested to see il Tunney would open
his attack in the manner in which
| advised him and sure enough the
lad went into Dempsey in an
aggressive style. Tunney won
seven OF the rounds and opened each
one with an inquiring glance in my
direction to see If l approved of his
strategy.
In the middle of the bout both
gentlemen had swollen orbs which
plainly caused them annoyance.
When the final gong sounded, ter.

minutes were spent in getting the

and last minute instructions given
and then the gong.
Dempsey, the killer, crouching like
a tiger, started weaving menacing-
ly toward the center of the ring.
Tunney, almost erect, advanced to
meet him.
Thoughts of Toledo when Dempsey
crouching just as he was then, laid
Willard low, must have arisen in
the minds of that vast throng.
1t seemed an interminable time,
but it was only a fraction of a Sec
ond before the crouching. snarling,
ferocious Dempsey reached the point
Of contact with Tunney. the reader
of Shakespeare.
Three.quarters of the 10000
people present were convinced at
that moment that Dempsey would
unloose his menacing fist in the one
great blow and the fight would be
over.
At last Tunney and Dempsey were
face to face.
The crowd held it's breath.
And nothing happened.
Then Tunney poked Dempsey, the
killer. in the nose.
Such an anti-climax is hard tc
realize.
To the conscious mind it didn't
seem possible. but the unconscious
mind said that Dempsey. the man
killer, was about to pass from the
pages of pugilism.
Tunney Dominates
On through round two and three
Tunney continued TO dominate.
The crouching. desperate Demp
sey would rush in, only to be turned
around and shown his place by the
alert and agile challenger.
The fourth round passed and the
vast crowd saw Dempsey throw all
he had into great assault. But II
was repulsed.
Round aftec round went on with
Tunney ever dominant.
The skies we're black. The rain
fell steadily.
But now the crowd was bowling
for new champion.

shouting.

cried as Dempsey started one of his

TO HOLD CLAM BAKE
Annual Event of Auto Dealers to be
Held Saturday.

Scores of local automobile dealers
are preparing to attend the fourth
annual clam bake of the Indianapo
lis Automobile Trade Association,
which will be held Saturday after
noon at the John Mann farmhouse,
nine and one-half miles south of
town. The route to the farm was
given by John 3. Orman, manager
of the association, as follows:
Follow Southeastern Ave. to New
Bethel. At that point markers will
show the way to the farm, which
is just two squares from the main
road. Arrangements have been made
for accommodating 250@guests.

famous blows an inch from the can
vas and found no mark.
The ninth round came and went
and the tenth. The crowd was on its
feet. A minute to go and $4,000
people were standing on the benches
bowling for the browning Of new
king of pugilism.
The minute passed and then an,
other minute.
New Champion
Ladies al gentlemen" shouted
the announcer, this is Gene Tun-
ney, the new heavyweight champion
of the world
A roar went up and while the
crowd roared ferry the Greek dashed
out from Dempsey's corner and
dragged a staggering, beaten and
battered killer" back to his seat.
The rain poured harder.
The crowd moved out.
There was perfect order, no mob
bng of the new champion, no hiss
ing of tn ex-king.
Thus the reign of Jack Dempsey
was over after seven years on the
throne.
1t was a spectacle to make his
tory. The 1872 900 people, Of whom
probably 5000 were women; the
glowing lights across that vast as
semblage; the ring, lighted by some
thirty powerful lights set like a
brilliant jewel in the center of that
great concourse, the airplanes flying
overhead. the shouts. the acclaim!
Tex Richard announced the peo-
pie paid around two million dollars
to see Jack Dempsey's crown moved

the championship. had asked for
return match and Tunney had
promised to give him his chance.
Many in the crowd agreed that Jack
Dempsey as a world champion, had
faded from the picture.
The crowd Of 10000 came
into the stadium here Thursday
night in perfect order and they
maintained that order until the an
nouncer proclaimed the arrival of a
new heavyweight champion Of the
world.
They listened intently to the rendi-
ton over the radio OF the Rigolo
Quartet.
They cheered champion and chal-
lenger. but not with the wild dis
order which has marked the passing
OF other champions.
But back of that perfect order. /.
might be well TO mention, stood one
usher for each eighty persons in at.
tendance and a policeman or fire
man for each ten rows of seats in
each section of that great arena.
And at each OF the forty-one en-
frances into the great Stadium was
a surgeon on duty.
1t was civilized prize-fighting.
Yet the spectacle was one which
none OF the 1872. 900 people present
ever can forget.
