NEW YORK, March OF 1P)-Although
designed to force an early choice Of
Gene Tunney's next challenger, the
New York state athletic commission
today delivered an ultimatum to the
heavyweight champion and Tex Rick
ard that apparently scranbles the fistic
situation more thoroughly than the
promoters elimination tournaments
ever did.
The fistic fathers after solemn de-
liberation, annoGnced that Tunney
must accept the defis of Jack Sharkey,
Tom Heeney and Johnny Risko, singly
or intoto by next Thursday, or suffer
the equivalent Of indefinite suspen-
SIGN in this state. If he does not fancy
the "big three" lineup, the titleholder

Paolino Uzcudun, Jack Delaney,
George Godfrey and Phil Scott
In the event that Gene picks from
the latter division or even names an
opponent capable of lifting six ounce
gloves into a defensive position, he
first must reject the top trio and give
reasons.
Instead of accomplishing its con-
ciliatory aim, the commissions action
aroused Tex Rickard, i'll Miami Beach,
to bristling response and apparently
paved the way for another war of
words. The promoter lost no time in
rejecting the commissions overtures as
untimely and emphasized the conten-
ton that it is for hin-not Tunney
C1. the commission - to decide the
champions next foe.
The commissions move followed
Tunney's failure definitely to name an
opponent when requested by the board
at the expiration OF the six months
rest allowed a champion between title
defcnsos. The scholar of Greenwich
Village merely replied that he had
signed with Rickard for a match and
the opponent was something for the
promoter to work out. All that
kept Tunney from suspension today

answer of challenges once they have
been filed.
Adding to the mounting troubles of
Rickard and Tunney who have been
suspected of delaying the game in the
hope that Jack Dempsey would make
his annual comeback, the commission
waived the old ManaSSa Mauler right
out of possible consideration.
Another Dempsey-Tunney match,
they declared, would be just a ''fi-.
nanci2l proposition" with no possibil-
ity of the title changing hands.
Ignoring his own and oft expressed
preference to do SO, the fistic fathers
declared that Tunney must fight twice
this year or be placed on the in
eligible list This is equivalent to in
definite suspension, but the only ac-
tion possible inaSmuch as the cham
pionS boxing license has expired here.
State laws require a titleholder to de-
fend his crown every six months.
Although strenuous efforts are un-
der way to bring togethey Tom Heeney
and Johnny Risko, elimination final
lists, in q June masch to determine a
challenger, the bout is being held up by
the New zealander's demand that he
receive a written guarantee of
Tunney match in the event he wins.
This has not been forthcoming and
adds weight to the opinion. that Rick
ard still has hopes Of a second Denp-
sey comeback, The word is out Shat
the cnly thing wrong with the former
champions eyes is his inability to
"see'' the figures in the offer Rickard
has made him.
In the consensus Of the experts, the
stand of the commission may force
the annual heavyweight classic from
New York for the third consecutive
year. Gene won the championship
from Dempsey in Philadelphia after
his home town board refused to recog-
nize him as a worthy challenger ami
refused Jack license. Last fall a

 The kidnapping was the high spot in the two months dispute between the campus leaders over the student body policies, Zion check being the storm center of one group, while the University Daily headed the other faction.
 Zioncheek was called to the door last night, presumably to receive a letter. He was grabbed by the nine hooded men who whisked him away in an auto- mobile to an unfrequented spot. There they trussed Zioneheck to tree and all but small DOT ticn of the top of his head was shaved. He was. padded, when he refused to take various oaths. Later his clothes were removed and he was again tied to the tree He was thrown twice into the water and then left to find his way, home.

Girls-how'd yc:: like to have for your lover a fiery, hot-headed Spaniard who fights battles with bull whips for your love? Sounds interesting doesn't it?
 And when the lover is that handsome Antonio Moreno-that makes it all the more interesting.
 Well-Antonio certainly makes it interesting enough for Greta Garbo, in "The Temptress,' now playing at the Palace-and she makes it interesting for him. too--- because she gets him into the bull whip fight and all the rest of the trouble he has to battle. Which shows what a flapper can do.
 Miss Garbo is adorable in the new Cosmopolitan production. Her gorgeous gowns--her glittering personality-no wonder ever the handsome Tony quite lost his head over her.
 It's a story that fairly thrills one; written by Vicente Blasco Ibanez, author of .'The Four Horsemen," and directed by Fred Niblo-the man who produced Ben Hur." It starts with gilt tering parties in Paris; Greta in gorgeous gowns with dukes and counts at her feet-the idol of Paris. Moreno comes there on q vacation--he's an engineer Tn South America--a friend of Gre ta's' husband, an Italian nobleman who's gone broke trying to keen her in new duds. This is the starter. The orchestra gives a splendid concert and excellent music for the feature.
