BRONSON TO SERVE
IN TUNNELS CORNER

SPECTATOR. n. Y. August 25.--
Jimmy Bronson, one of Gene Tunney's
handlers while he was fighting with
the Marine Corps in France, will be in
the champions corner when he meets
Jack Dempsey at Chicago. Bronson
was one of Tunney's seconds In the
title fight last year at Philadelphia.
Bronsons selection, the departure
of Paul Cavalier, a sparring partner,
the return to camp of Eddie Eagan,
former amateur heavyweight cham
pion. and a visit of another group of
the champions friends marked a
round of leisure in camp yesterday.
Gene took his guests on a picnic to
Whitaker Lake. near an old Indian
hunting camp. Aside from seven
miles on the road the champion took
things easy, abstaining entirely from
any boxing.
Present plans call for Tunney's de-
parture for Chicago next Wednesday.
The final workout in the mountain
camp has been scheduled tentatively
for next Tuesday All the champion's
baggage and training paraphernalia
will be packed Tuesday after the
workout.
Tunney has been boxing without a
headguard, although his sparring
partners wore them. When news
paper man called Genes attention to
this, and asked the reason he was
told that the protection was not
needed.

field loss.
In addition to members of last sea-
sons squad Kelley will look over a
number of new aspirants for the line,
including Hockbaum, center; Tyson
and Rhodes, ends, and Smith and
Dyer.
Gene Stevens, halfback, and Bill
Simmons, quarter, are backfield de-
pendables upon whom Kelley il
counting heavily. Johnson, a half
| back, who is hailed as former Ohio
allscholastic selection. is new player
of whom much is expected.
Morty Wilmer, former crack Central
athlete, who last Fall was first string
quarterback for the Penn freshmen,
probably will aid Kelley before return
ing to the University.

and appeared well pleased after the

Leo Popple of Stevens Point, gave
Jack workout on the mat, the heavy
weight wrestling a few rounds with

Just when Dempsey and Flynn will
admit the public to the training quar-

will not be before next week. Then, it
is said. only one or two days will be
set aside for the crowds.
