"He, being only ton or twelve years old was able 'to discern under the brush what was entirely hidden from me; but dropping down on one knee I be held a " "spike" buck Btnndlng hroadalde, as fine a target as any hunter could wish. I had a good muzzle loading rifle charged with black powder, which raised such a smoke screen that nothing could be seen until It cleared away.- By the time I had re-loaded, however, tho boy exclaimed "You never touched it; it's standing right there yet." Dropping down In my former position, sure enough there stood a spike buck apparently In the identical position as when I fired.

Dempsey has crowded . more thrills ; Into ; less fighting space than any other champion. Tunney, ex-marine a World war votoran who fought his way up from the ranks, has packed all the old elements uf drama in his rise to the peak.-' Donipscy, born to tho rough "and tumble life, slugged his way to the title with probably (he most ' furi ous attack that the ring over saw. Tho "Denipsoy of Toledo" that top pled the mountainous Jess ( Wll lard lias become a ring epic. Boxing skill, well dovelopcd, and raro determination' lu the face of 'obstacles have been' the principal assets In Tunuey's equipment. Sel dom spectacular, as was Demp sey, Gene climbed the ladder by comparatively slow stagos.' Tho product of tho Sidewalks of Now York developed from- a "fair to miUdlln'". light heavyweight Into a first-class, ' then heavyweight, champion. ' - Dempsey, tho weaving, rlp-tcnr-ing slugger, and Tuunuy, tho cuol, resourceful boxer, aro as different in porBonallty as they aro lu fight ing nrmfitmnnt. A "hiiln fellow Willi I met," Dempsey remained ' "ono of lite boys even after rising to nrriu euco in the fistic world. He has al ways been apprnachablo, friendly, a "klddcr."

Popularity, howovor, doos not seem to go with the championship. Dempsey, first because ot criticism Of his war-time record ' and later because' of hlbt ring; Inactivity, was the target' of' ninny ' attacks. His sentimental appeal 'to the. mass uf fandom dates from his defeut by Tunney and his rofusal to alibi himself. ! Tunnoy's popularity, oddly enough waned upon his advent to the title heights.. He .was-, booed in a Now York ring a few weoks aftor cap turing tho championship, but it didn't disturb his phllosophls alti tude. . ; ... ....

Whether he dues the- unprece dented and regains the title, or whethur he again bows to Tun--ley's ring-craft, Dempsey can bo counted on to keep plunging for ward while the battlo Is still on. ' Moro of the defenslvo ype, de pending on--the -sharp-shnottug ef fects of his counter puncheH, Tun ney nevertheless has displayed hit ting ability which might be con spicuous In any other day thnn ono- thnt boasted- a- walloper of Dcmppey's order.
