Gene Tunney-Jack Dempsey
Bout Is Only Starter for
Boxing Car
HEENEY LOOKS LIKELY
Paul Berlenbach May Get
Back in Running; Delaney
Coming Well
BY Jimmy Powers

New York, Aug. 11(NEA)-Poor old
Tex Richard. Yesiree, poor old Tex
sure has it tough. This fellow who
never did nothing to nobody has to
get out d~work-collccting dollars.
For the next few months the heavy
weight camps will be buzzing like bee
hives.
OF course, there is the Gene Tun-
ney-Jack Dempsey fight. But did you
ever stop to realize the tremendous
sucker list waiting to be pluckcd
after it?
Looks Beyond September
Tex is looking beyond that single
night in September. 1t is likely that
Dempsey on the atrocious (radio re-
ports to the contrary form he showed
against Sharkey will be beaten again
by the manly Marine. Whether he is
or is not does not alter the situation.
There must be a logical contender for
the champion, whoever he is, to face
next summer.
In the first place, Sharkey will be
built up a second time. Many custom
ers are convinced he can take the
shattered, bronzcd hulk that once was
Dempsey, any day in the week. The
Boston lad is just smart-aleck
youngster of "a and he has plenty of
time to come along.
Then there is Senior Pauline, he of
the shining gold teeth and the wide,
wide grin. The Senior made himself
solid with the fans by smacking Harry
Wills on the whiskers in most con-
vincing way. Pauline may, for all Of
that, still be bum-but until he is
licked you cannot prove it.
Delaney Looks Good
We also have one Jack Delaney.
The handsome Mr.. Delaney has given
up his light-heavy title to 60 after
the big fellows. He seems to be
much better than the night he faced
Jim Maloney. He has the class and
has the punch and there is more than
zone wise guy who thinks the Maloney
thing was in the burlap.
New Zealander came so close to whip
Include Tom Heeney. This hairy
New Zelander came so close to whip
ping the clumsy Pauline that one
Judge and several ringsiders gave him
the verdict. Heeney is bit slow but
he can take it and has wallop in
both fists. Other men have gone far
with less.
Jim Maloney may get back into the
running. and there is George God
frey, the big black, who once hit Jack
Sharkey SO often in a bout there were
personal pronouns all over the can
vas. Both should be counted.
Berlenbaeh II In .Offing
Nothing would please Tex Rickard
better than to sec Paul Berlenbach
plug along again, Der Panlie always
was popular on account OF Ais slug
ging and his first three comeback
setups have been disposed Of
When Delaney quit his throne, there
appeared the makings Of 4 tasty bout
between Tommy Loughran and Mike
McTigue Tor the vacancy. Der Paulie
Twill be waiting around for look in
So what with Sharkey, Maloney
Godfrey, Heeneys Delaney, Pauline
lBerlenbach, not TO mention the loser
Of the Tunney- Dempsey match Thrown
lin, il looks like very, very busy
autumn for Mr.. Richard.
i OF course Mr.. Richard IL very, very
sad at having TO do all the yort
matching al these fellows TO snaktsal
