These, boiled down to what
might be termed a few arresting
statements, represent the find
ings of Mr.. Gene Tunney, of Palm
Beach, Park Avenue and the prize
right of six years ago. The time
was when Mr.. Tunney was the
greatest of all the heavyweights
himself, but other things have
arisen to claim his distracted at
tention, so that nowadays when
he stroIls negligently in upon a
prize fight it is largely with the
air of wishing to see how the
other half lives.
Disappointing Performance
encountered Mr.. Tunney in
the act of being a house guest of
Bernard Gimbel, the merchant, at
the latter's beach cottage. They
call it a cottage because it looks
so small alongside of the Elks'
home at Topeka, Kan. Mr.. Tun-
ney had just returned from the
links and was a bit fatigued, but
aroused himself a little violently
at the mention of Carnera.
"a bitterly disappointing pre-
fOrmance," was his immedi-
ate comment and then he went
on, as follows:
"He can't punch. He can't
do anything except rough his
man inside. But what a man
he is, nevertheless. When you
get a giant, 27O pounds in
weight and with the strength

has the size and strength and

a better heavyweight in the

poor showing here. And 1 GER
tainly would say his showing
was poor in contrast to his per-
formance against Sharkey. He
looked almost like q good
fighter that night.
altogether, I'd say that he
has gone off tremendously and
that he really can't punch at
all. otherwise, he would have
had to knock out a little man
like LOughran. The latter was
as courageous as I knew he
would be; but the giants nat
ural advantages were too much
for him. If there had been any
suggestion of parity between
the two and LOughran had the
body to go with that very agile
mind Of his, he would have won.

will commence spring basketball
practice, the latter part of next
week. under the watchful eye of
Coach "Barrister" Orrel Mitchell
In fact the Purple won't have a

ward, Mitchell anticipates a much
better season next year. He
claims the players will be more
matured and experienced.
