THE IJAME aj GUARANTEES ITS PUanY C TEEY COilFIDEOT f OF WINNING I KO LAKE VILLA, 111., Sept. 20. (AP). The self-earae strategy that carried Gene Tunney. to the heavyweight throne in the battle of the Sesqui-Centennlal at Phila delphia last fall will guide the big marine in defense of his heavy weight crown against the former champion. JacK iempey, in Sol dier's field Thursday nignt. While around 150,000 specta tors watch from the blackness of the huge stadium at two gladia tors battling for a purse of $1. 450.000. Tunney believes he will stab Dempsey off balance contin ually with a cutting left hand and hammer out iust as decisive a vic tory with solid right crosses as he did in their first encounter a year ago. Determined On K. O. Analyring the situation calmly at the close of five months of training for the record-shattering battle of the distant vistas. Tun ney can see ahead only the oppor tunity to complete the job left unfinished in the driving rain at Philadelphia. Although the chain pion shies at predicting a knock out victory, he believes that such an ending alone can establish the supremacy he feels over Demp sey. Tunney's best chance for a knockout, he feels, probably will be in one of the last three rounds, from the eighth to the tenth. oene will enter the ring pledged to no definite style of milling, however. "My plan of battle depends en tirely on what Dempsey does, how he fights, and the opportuni ties fate throws in my path," he said. "I may nail h im with a right smash to the chin in the first seconds of fighting as I did last September. If that happens Dempsey cannot evade a knockout this time. May Wear Jfu-k Down "Then again Jack may take everything I have and keep his feet. Ten rounds really is not very long, you know. In that event I probably shall fight him as I did at Philadelphia: wearing him down with a steady attack. Certainly I shall not feel that I have completed my job if Demp sey is erect when the final gong sounds." Into whatever style of milling Tunney elects, however, there probably will seep a bit of the change that has crept, almost un noticed, Into the titleholder's bearing and ring work during the past year. For Gene now Is the champion a proud champion supremely confident that he can whip any man In the sport rules. Never again, critics believe, could Tunney reconcile himself solely to a "hit and run" defense. Close observers attribute this attitude not only to confidence that came with winning the title, but to the growing popularity of the former marine.

For the foot ball player Christmas Is only three busted ribs and a broken nose off. There's' hardly a school in the country that couldn t use a. couple of dozen touchdowns right now. Grid players quit wearing nose guards when they found out they were not protection, anyway, from broken necks. From now until the turkey suc cumbs with a low cry into the gravy, college stadiums all over the country will present that great drama: "When Cleat Meets Cleat." Slugging Is barred from foot ball. Oh, well, stomping on the opponent's ear is much more ef fective, anyway. Football is too one-sided. If a fellow thinks it's time to make a touchdown he finds. 11 others have a different idea. Hitting the line is all right as long as the line doesn't hit back. MERCHANT SHOT CLEVELAND, OHIO, Sept. 20.

TEMP ASlS MAINSTAY From all appearances at the high school athletic field yester day afternoon, the. 1927 Salem high football team largely will be built around one man. Captain Temple. This fellow towers above all of them, not only in size, but in abil ity as well. He can kick; he can pass; he can run with the ball, and his performance is almost that of a college player. Temple kicks.: the ball high, giv ing) the ends plenty of time to get down under it, and his passes are uncannily accurate. Coach Ander son will probably play him at quarterback. Other backfield men on the squad of 45 turning out yesterday who showed up well are Backe. fullback; Blako, halfback; Bob Kelly, who-, warmed the bench most of the' time last year on ac count of an injury; and Nelson, another last year's sub.
