~ REGULATOR. N. Y, June al
Jene Tunney. after a 48-hour
rest. today went through the best
~ workout Of his long campaign for
the defense Of his world heavy
weight title against Tom Heeney In the
Yankee Stadium next Thursday.
Though he reduced boxing from six
to four rounds today, two each with his
sparring partners, he displayed more
ring stuff in these IL minutes than he
has In the past IL days,
Tunney's actions. against Harold
Mays especially, Indicated that he was
bent on knocking out the challenger
long before the l5-round title battle
was half over. For the first time In the
past three months Mays was unable to
land one solid punch.
Mays has had little difficulty In scar
ing hard right hook TO Tunney's jaw
after rushing the champion against the
ropes. When Harold tried this fistic
trick today, Gene skillfuliy ducked out
of danger and then left-jabbed Mays
back into the center, where he whaled
him with hard right punches. After
two rounds of this vicious punishment,
Mays crawled out of the ring remark
ing: ITS Just as well that Gene wants
to go only two rounds. / don't think
I could last through third one"
Hitting Harder Than Ever.
Mays said that Tunney was hitting
harder than ever, that he could feel
an extra sting even though the cham
pion wore the largest gloves In the
storeroon1.
During the Mays bout Gene kept his
rugged Sparring partner outside BY con-
stantly jabbing him on the head with
lefts and then aiming stiff body
punch.

- AIRHAVEN, N. j.. July 2i.--Gene
- Tunney stands little or no chance
OF knocking out Tom Heeney In
4 their l5-round battle for the
world heavyweight championship
I'm the Yankee Stadium next Thursday
night, lis the unqualified opinion OF
Tommy Loughran, world light-heavy-
weight champion, and Benny Leonard,
retired indicated lightweight title
holder, after watching the rugged New
Zealander In bristling workout this
afternoon.
Heeney, refreshed by days lay-off,
stepped through four rounds OF boxing
and four rounds OF gym exercise. The
weather was cool and refreshing after
change was a welcome relief TO the
hardrock.
Leonard unheSitatingly picked Tunney
as the winner. provided the champion
elects merely TO outlook the invader,
He expects Tunney to win on points.
No Knockout, Experts Agree.
IF Tunney thinks he can knock him
out. why, he's daily" Leonard exploded
after watching Heeney trade wallops
with James j. Braddock and his other
spar boy, James j. Lawlnss.
Leonard does not regard Heeney as
an aggressive fighter from what he saw
today He rated him as a big slow
moving boxer, wonderfully built to take
lot OF punishment
An aggressive fighter Is one who
lunges at you with murder In his
heart" Leonard says. II do not think
he is that kind. He piles In all the
time but he Is not aggressive, He may
be called a pace setter that's all.
Heeney looks like he is In shape and
he convinced me that Tunney will not
stop him. II he tries. he may find HIM
self In plenty OF trouble"
Loughran, while declining to name
the winner, voiced the opinion that
Tunney could not knock out Heeney In
"a thousand years"
He also gave the impression he favs
ored Tunney, but refused TO comment
and say SO because he is reserving that
privilege for his newspaper articles.
you know. I'm a writer now,
Loiighran explained. but Heeney looks
good. He seems TO have improved In
his boxing, He is hitting sharply and
! accurately"

Only Battler With Real Knockout Punch, Which
Challenger Lacks, Has Chance to Defeat the
Champion, Who Is Equally Game Under Fire.
ny SPARROW McGANN.

~ REGULATOR, N. Y. July al
Gene Ttinney is good enough tc
whip Tom Heeney and retain his
title as heavyweight champion of
the world when they meet next
Thursday evening in the 1928 battle OF
the century"
On strict form Tunney figures to top
the best performance displayed BY
Heeney in any of his ring engagements
in this country, The old bugaboo of
the champion bowling to the inevitable
fate of all champions who are compelled
10 remain idle over long stretches Of
time is the only factor calculated to en-
nance the chances of the challenger.
Tlnney has seen At to do some light
work from time TO time and has not
permitted his condition TO fall below
tho level of an athlete out of competi-
tion, His work In preparation for the
contest has not disclosed any striking
evidence that the cancer OF inactivity
has eaten a hole in his armor.
Corbets Explains Point
Jim Corbet;. the forerunner OF pres
ent-6ay boxing methods, furnishes a
good illustration TO explain the point.
Back in the days when held the
title worked hard for l3 months for
the fight with Charley Mitchell Cor
bett said. This was an absolute ne
ceSSity. Acting on the stage, jumping
20 different towns every week. eating in
restaurants and drinking now and then
70 be good fellow among friends called
for & long siege of work to get the
poison out OF my system.
Now. take the case of Gene Tunney.
He has been sensible enough to keep
away from the bright lights. long con-
tracts on the road and other things that
60 to break down a mans store of vi
tslity
The easy manner in which he has
gone about his work is sure sign that
absence from the ring has not mate
rally affected his boxing ability ! look
for him To keep on for five years more"
Corbett's summary of the case for
Tunney seems accurate to this writer
While 1t is true that Tunney showed
evidence of being away of in his box
ing at the beginning of his work. the
awkwardnesS has been polished away
sno now Gene looks better than he did
before the last Dempsey contest.
Predecessors Guide TO Gene.
1t would be the height of folly TO say
that Tunney is superman and Is not
affected by the rules which govern all
ether athletes. But Tunney is singu-
lar person and has done things differ
emily and far better than any other
pugilist before his time The errors of
those gone before have guided his foot
steps and Eelped him to avoid pitfalls.
Why Heeney should be given better
than an even chance of dethroning the
champion puzzles this writer. The
challenger has not shown thing in

training FOR this contest to prove that
he is capable of putting up better ex-
hibition than he did against Paolino.
Jack Shsrkey. Jack Delaney or John
RiSko.
Heeney is courageous plodder. with
little or no punch for man of his
weight, Bulk and we'll punched MUS
Giles do not win boxing contests, espe-
cially when pitted against a smart.
heady boxer like the present champion.
The New Zealander is we'll built
around the shoulders. but the sign of
free muscular movement is missing.
Heeney pushes his blows away from
him and loses the snap behind the
punch. The resulting loss of leverage
behind the blow takes the zip out of it.
Another thing that will initiate
against the Anzac's chances is his habit
of staying close to his man and trying
to punch away with short. sharp blows.
Tunney is master of tying the other
man up. and this may not only slow
up the fight. but ruffie the feelings of
Heeney. whose long suit is fighting in
close.
Hecney Is No Dempsey.
The Irishman plans rushing at
tack. with the object of pinning Gene
against the ropes as Dempsey did on
the two occasions when Tunney was
badly hurt. Heeney is not Dempsey
by long sight He does not carry the
ominous threat of a stick of T. NJ T.
in his gloved fists. When Heeney does
his forcing he is going To ind young
man with two sharply driving fists
stemming his charges.
Having observed the challenger In all
his workouts and fights since Heeney's
name was mentioned as a titular con-
tender. this writer has failed to find
that quality one expects In q danger
GUS contender--the punch.
GameneSs under fire and the courage
TO carry on are Heeney's qualifications.
Tunney meets the challenger on an
equal footing in these respects. But the
man without knockout punch of the
kind that stuns man into insensibility
with the first impact is not going to
beat Gene Tunney

do some inside fighting with the cham
pion. He had little or no success. Tun-
ney's left prevented him from crowd

him to take cover.
Jimmy Bronson, who will be the
champions chief second In the Hceney
fight, said today: "Tunney is right on

best physical and mental condition he
ever has achieved In his boxing career.
It was apparent today that Tunney

than he was In either of his two bouts
with Jack Dempsey. Gene was on the
defense when he met the Mauler He
had great respect for. Dempssy's punches
and wanted to avoid being hit.
Tunney Is Different Now.
Heeney, however. will face different
edition of Tunney. The New Zealand
err, the Tunney campers say. will find
the champion eager to give and take
punches. Gene twice jabbed his way
to decisions over Dempsey, but against
Heeney. according to all indications,
Tunney viii use the jab more as a
threat and rely on his powerful right
to retain his championship.
During the day no reports were re-
ceived from Tex Richard. who siren
uously objected to Tunney's flying to
New York on the day Of the fight The
promoter threatened to seek an injunc-
