that saw the once great "Manasaa

all of'his old gameness, and a good

Return Bout" For Which

(AuocUted Pteu Luted wire.)
NEW YORK, July 22 If Jack
Dempsey has been away he has
come back. So said Gene Tunney,
who knows Dempsey, both in ami
out of the riuir,
"I never saw him fight better.1.
said the champion as Jack Shar-
key, the confident, was being- car
ried to his corner. A left hook
from Dempsey's gloved fist a few
seconds before had caused the
youth from Boston to lose all in
terest in. the subsequent proceed
ings. ; '. , f
The tltleholder's first observa
tions : after eharkey had - been
counted out was a question. "Did
you notice how far that last blow
carried?" he asked. There was
no objection to his answering Iiis
own question. "Not very far, not
many Inches, but, oh what power
there was behind it." s
"Yes, Dempsey can hit," Tun
ney continued. ; - "He has' always
been able to hit and I suppose he
always will, as long as he stays
In thore," pointing to the ring.
"where a blow with a lot of powija
oeninu it means-' something."
Tunneyl liked the bout.' H6' fol
lowed it closely from 'start to
finish. He" saw no-' foul. 1 "The
blows that were1 questioned 'were
not -In the1 groin," he sald.'".As I
saw them they were fair:" '' ' ,
"Yes, I think ' Jack,' (there was:
no quesllbn which' Jack he meant),
was better than he was against me'
En Philadelphia. Surely we should
have a great' return' bout, where-'
ever ana whenever we meet." i
Of his own plans Gene said they,
were In a nebulous' state. He' bas.
been, at his favorite country re
treat, '-Speculator,, in the . Adironv
dacks,; for' Several' we'eks, doing
light work and keeping In shape.
....Keeping In Shape
"It's not real training," he said.
"I'm not actually getting ready for
the bout In defense ot the title, hut
I am doing some work and I am
keeping in shape.
. "1 am going hack to Speculator
and will remain there until; I
know when and where -the bout in
to be. Not until then, of course,
can I make my plans for the real
conditioning." . . 1

Slow Movie of Final Round
Increases .Controversy;
Referee Insists His :
, Decision Right..; j '
NEW YORK, July 22. The con
troversy over whether Jack Demn-
sey did or did not foul Juck Shar
key betore knocking out the Bos
ton sailor last night, raged with
increasing, rather than . diminish
ing, fury today.
Even the slow motion pictures of
the finish In the seventh round
failedto settle the dispute. To Tex
Itlckard, the promoter, and a. ma
jority of - observers , present, the
pictures ..revealed .Dempsey'B blows
to the. body, to bs close to the . bor
derline,, but nevertheless i not low
enough .for disqualification. . fl'o
others .and to Johnny Buckley,
Sharkey's manager, the pictures
were accepted as proof that. the
low blows were struck. . to Shar
key's mid-section! Just before tho
leu nook that sent the sailor down
to ihe floor. . . , , . : ,
, "Sharkey , was beaten ; by two
foul punches,", Buckley, charged,
after, seeing , the pictures. "The
pictures prove it." ,
Sharkey himself, before leaving
by automobile early this afternoon
with his wife for his home In, Bob-
ton, supported nls manager s state
ment and declared his groin was
sore and swollen from Dempsey's
low punches. The Boston boxer
accused Dempsey bt working an
old ring trick getting him (Shar
key) into a position where the
referee was behind him before
crusning-rignts to tne Douy.
' Rlckard declared the disputed
blow ua he saw It "wus fair, land
lng in the pit of the stomach,"
Officials, as wei. its newspaper
men, wore widely split on the is
sue. The majority of the metro
politan Sports writers apparently
hold the belief that Dempsey's
blows wore foul, but their viewB
varied according to the positions
tney were m at the lingBldo.
One of the Judges, Charles F.
Mathlson, was quoted by the New
York World as preparing to rile a
report declaring that Dempsey
fouled Sharkey but the referee,
Jack O'Sullivan, was equally as
positive that he was correct In rul
ing the former champion's punches
fair, even though they were close
to the -border line.
Here's how O'Sullivan described
the disputed situation to the Sun:
"I was right on lop of the boxers
preceding the knockout. Dempsey
brought up a swooping right for
tho body. It was a low punch but
It was not a damaging blow. It
lanBed on Sharkey's left thigh and
Bwept on. I took a step nearer lo
them and said 'watch your
initiates, jack.' Then I realized
they were both named Jack and
added 'I mean you, Dempsey.'
"Quick as a flash Dempsey sent
his left to the pit of the stomach.
Sharkey grunted as though in tmiii
and bent bis head forward. Then
Dempsey sent another left lo the
Jaw and Sharkey went down. I
bent over Sharkey and snin: 'You
had better get up. I am counting
on you.' He made no reply. Ho did
not claim a foul.
"During tho fight Dempsey land
ed three or lour punches that were
low, but they wero not vital. They
were light blows. Sharkey also
landed n couple of low ones. I
cautioned both of them."
In spite of the sharp difference
nf opinion, no official action is ex
pected to bo taken by tho stale
athletic commission. Chairman
James A. Farley, while declining
to express a personal view of tho
matter, said that Referee O'Sulli
van called tho decision "as he saw
It" and pointed to tho fact that the
commission has never reversed the
verdicts of any of Its officials.
