Dempsey shouted from the
house tops that nothing would
induce him to come back. He
Is back. 1t, therefore, might
seem reasonable to suppose that
Tunney's representations Of yes

tnpermanent in their effect.
The fact OF the matter Is that

He wants no more of that young

virtue of the famous long count in
the seventh round at Chicago.
Opinion today was pretty
equally divided rs to whether
Tunney's retirement is per-
nanent or really temporary.
Those close to the man. how
ever, seem cemented in their
notion that, having relinquished
the possession he prized most,
Tunney is through for all time.
This may be, for he is a singular
individual if ever there was one
and he has the strength of char
acter to stick with a thing even
when he believes it to be against
his impulses and desires. If I am
drawing a picture of hard headed
man sitting down to give himself
a terrible beating on any issue that
might arise, ! am desolated but
not discouraged. In fact, ] regard
that picture as an excellent like
ness.
The ensuing twelve months will
tell the story of Tunney's retire
ment. As read, it must be accepted
at face value but not without reser.
vations. One of these would take
in the possibility OF a standout
heavyweight being uncovered in the
next year-Dempsey. for example,
or the man who arises to point
of great disorder by knocking
Dempsey out.
For TunBey, even in retire.
ment, is the type Of man who
will want to be recognized as
the greatest there Is. If an.
other arises whose fame and
ability disputes the point, then
every tendency of the retired
champion will be tugging at
him to go out and reaffirm the
supremacy he now enjoys.
But this development in question
must arise within the period OF
time in which Tunney believes his
speed will stay with him even
though he be inactive. For. as
have said before. Tunney may come
back to score an expected victory.
never to accept an expected defeat,
Too much does he enjoy the distinc.
ton OF being the only heavyweight
who retired undefeated, to spoil the
illusion.
