NEW YORK, Oct. 15.-P-Jack
Delaney former light-heavyweight
king, has survived the first round Of
Tex Richards heavyweight elimina-
ton process, the aim Of which is TO
pick a logical opponent for Gene
Tunney in 1928.
Delaney gave away almost 20
pounds last night and out-pointed
Jack Renaust in 10 rounds at Madison
Square Garden. Renault suffered a
broken nose in the fourth round
when he charged in and was met by
one Of Delaney's quick uppercuts.
He was an easy target for Delaney's
left hook and jab and he bled pro-
fusely until the eighth.
Renault's only real bid during the
contest was started in the eighth,
when he set about pounding De-
laney's body. He tried 20 overcome
the margin Delaney had piled up in
the earlier rounds but his best was
away short, and although he inflicted
severe punishment. Delaney avoided
him often by holding and dancing
away.
In the tenth Renault's face again
became q target and he was bleeding
freely at the bell.

plunges and an occasional trick play
was resorted to by both teams, and
