Jess Willard, Jack D em psey, Gene Tunney, Max S c h m e lin g , Ja c k S h a rk e y . P rim o Camera, Max Baer, Jim Braddock and finally Louis. From this parade of 12 men, only Johnson is missing. And he was killed in a motor car accident Jef fries is still alive—hale and rather hearty—and so are Burns, Willard, Demp’sey, T u n n e y , S c h m e lin g , Sharkey, Camera, Baer, Braddock and Louis.

Big Camera still is wrestling, or giving imitations thereof, and Dempsey still is refereeing now and then Jeffries has been running a boxing school and holding fight nights Louis says he is through, but he still hasn’t turned in any formal or official abdication.
