PARIS, Jan. 24.-Lou Brouillard.
Worcester (Mass.) middleweight,
today announced he had Cancelled
all his contracts for bouts in France
and will leave shortly for the United
States. The American said he was
convinced that he can not get fair

Brouillard's action resulted from
his disqualification in his worlds
middleweight title bout with Mar
Gel Thil of France Monday night.
The bout was awarded to Thil on a
foul in the fourth round, but most Of
the crowd protested the decision.

It? And the pictures clearly show
Dempsey hit Tunney seven times
with smashing blows to the head in
the course of sending him to the
floor in the seventh round at Chi
cago.
Any one Of those punches would
have stopped a fellow like Fulton,
but Tunney happened to be made
of stern stuff. Dempsey was one
punch knocker-out only against
certain fighters, and this probably
Is true of all heavy punchers.
They say if you hit a fighter on
the button, as the nerve center near
the angle of the chin is descriptive
ly known to the trade, he must go
out. This may or may not be true
Anyway, it is not easy to hit man
solidly on the button. The target is
small and the maximum in marks
manship is demanded.
Tunney Missed Button"
Tunney tells me he has yet to hit
Dempsey on the button in 20 rounds
of fighting. II must have thrown
a hundred punches at that partic-
ular spot, but not one reached it.
Dempsey always carried his chin
low and this made the task difficult. u
Most fighters carry their chin low
Tunney missed very few punches in
the ring.
If he couldn't reach the Dempsey
button in a hundred tries, you can
appreciate what problem the Or
binary slam-bang fighter faces try
ing to hole out in one.
Conditions also have much to do
with kriockouts of any variety Tun-
ney wasn't a thunderous hitter, and
yet he probably would have stopped
Dempsey twice If their fights had
been 15-rounders instead of 10
FOUNDERS. And since the longer dis
lance is generally accepted as the
fairer championship test, it can be
seen that Tunney didn't get a just
break with posterity.
Dempsey Nearly Out
Dempsey couldn't have gone an
other round at Philadelphia. Both
his eyes were closed and he had to
be led out to shake hands with his
conqueror at the end of the tenth.
He was, in much better shape at the
end Of the tenth at Chicago, but
the seventh-round attack had taken
so much out, Of his physical and
nervous system that he was stag
gering on uncertain legs. Most of
the critics agreed he couldn't have
gone three more rounds, let alone
five.
So instead of two knockouts
over one of the greatest. heavy
weights that ever lived the record
books through the ages will show
that Tunney merely got the duke or,
as the boys say, decisioned him. The
record books will invest some of the
other champions in much more
glamtrous robes.
Corbett would never have knocked
out John l., Sullivan if he had to do

noted speedway driver for a try at
Campbell's mark.
Harlan Fengler, designer of the
low-swung craft, was confident a
test would prove the Yankee Doo-

built.
Features which lead Fengler to
believe it will shatter all records
include:
Double racing motors towering all
four wheels.
Heaviest power load ever mounted
on wheels, 400o-horse power.
No axleS. with wheels driving d.

Perfect streamlining.

Trial tests will be conducted
shortly over a desert straightaway

put finishing touches on the body

The syndicate backing the venture
includes Fengler, Moore and Les
Goossen, former engineer for Harry
Miller, famed designer of racing
cars.
"As soon as she's worked in, Lou

"Unless we're way off in figures, one
