Well to begin with Gene Tunney
isn't Gene Tunney at all. Twenty
eight years ago, down in Green
wich Village. at Ill Bank street.
James j. Tunney was born. howl

mainly that now stands on the
threshold of the world heavyweight
championship.
James ]. Tunncy became Gene
Tunney both to his family and the
world at large through the inability
of a younger brother to pronounce
Jim. The best the youngster Tun-
ney could do with it was Gene when
he wanted to say Jim and Genie
when he tried for Jimmy.
The early chapters OF Tunney's
life read like those of any other
normal, healthy American boy who
was born and raised in a metropolis
where youth is fashioned early into
the molds and moods of man.
The ring knows Tunney today as
a gentleman fighter" But in his
more youthful days he was a street
fighter of no meagcr ability.
Always in Fight
Il don't ever recall going out of
my way to start ont of those fights"
says Tunney. but just the same
seemed always to be in one"
In due time Tunney came to be
known as the best 140-pounder in
the village. Neighborhood fighters
were in demand then at the smaller
fight clubs in New York. Match
makers at the Sharkey Fairmont
and Manhattan Casino always had
a neighborhood "grudge fight" on
their cards Frequently these fights
were the best of the night. a
Tunney started professionally this
way: Bill Jacobs used to scout for
material for the Old
A. C. in precisely the same
way baseball scouts roam the
leagues for potential dia-
nond greats. Jacobs saw Tunney and
offered him $40 to fight four

night.

Iates Tunney. "but ! was more Of

Of fighting formoney had never en-

oody except for the fun OF it."

Green the next time he saw Tun-

Tunney wasn't sure whether his /

lidn't appear to be. "All right, ,

Jacobs but it'll be my last public |
me. Whatever happens, win or

SiderS a Fight a Fight

New York, Aug. IS. P-A fight

trains for them all alike.
If you know how the world
heavyweight champion got into

Jess Willard at Toledo. Georges

Just how he is going to train for
his contest with Gene Tunney at
Philadelphia, September 20.
II couldn't train any different for
.Tunney than l did for all the rest"
Dempsey said.
Enjoys Workouts
This business of training, usually
drudgery with the average boxer,
seems to be a genuine pleasure for
the worlds heavyweight champion.
He goes into his training sessions
with the enthusiasm of a boy, ap-
parently enjoying every second of
it, but finding the greatest pleasure
in the soothing massage at the
hands of Jerry the Greek, who
kneads the champions muscles at
the finish of every workout.
Dempsey never drags through his
workouts half-heartedly, but goes
at top speed with every ounce of his
energy. even to skipping the rope.
On his hikes alcnL the roads sur
rounding the lake region of his
camp, Dempsey steps along with
fast jerky pace, walking briskly for

Always in Trim
People wonder why the champion
isn't fat and all out of condition
after being idle from the ring for
three years. The reason is because
Dempsey trains instinctively all the
time. Although ignorant of college
training rules, Dempsey has hit upon
the same system.
II begin my training with my
.eeth and keep my system clear
down to the tips of my toes. The
stomach is the key to perfect health.
Ny diet rules are simple and natural.
