"Naturally I am eorry to see Senator Owen leave the democratic tarty because of my nomination," it -began. "However, he is a "free American citizen and has the right to choose the party that best suits Ms ideas' " "Mv srreatest regret comes from one of the reasons advanced be- eaiioe it compels me to question his sincerity." Then the governor recounted that during the Madison Square fTarden convention deadlocked tour years ago Owen called to see Kim at the Manhattan club across the street from the convention hall, "and asked me to use my in fluence to secure for him the sup port of the Tammany delegation nd etated that with that support je, .f e$t he could get considerable (tele rates from other states for himself as a candidate for the nomination of president." "His hostility to Tammany hall, Smith concluded, "must have grown up in his heart In the last four years. In 1924 he was not only willing to accept its sup port but quite anxious to get it." That was all the democratic presidential nominee had to say about Owen's bolt, or about pol itics today. He declined to com ment on the retirement from the democrat committee of Senator Simmons of North Carolina.' who (ought his candidacy vigorously during the pre-convention; period,1 i&d'had no new announcements tof make regarding his own plans.

Rickari had figured on a gate of at leait $1,500,000 tonight.

Tunney, a master of defensive boxing, allowed Heeney to set the early pace, and then, after glowing him up with savage blows under his heart, proceeded to batter him into a state ot collapse. It took no expert, after the sav agely fought tenth round. f to tell that Heeney, the plodder, had met his master, and that his finish was coming. As this round ended. Heeney was lying flat on his back, his body rolled to the edge of the ring, completely knocked out. His seconds rushed into the ring as the bell clanged and the: fallen New Zealand gladiator - was dragged to his corner where re storatives were applied.

Tnm rtiarees Hard After the first and second rounds, one round was much like the other until the tenth. Heeney would 'wade In with a heart of a lion and a jaw of corrugated steel almost contemptuous of Tun- ner's blows. Tunney would beat him off with a left Jab to tne face, and then throw a pile driv ing right to the heart region.
