Associated I'ress Sports Ktlitor. NHW YORIC. Dec. 10. (P rhll ' Soptt.' thft Rnngling British heavyweight champion, today was; the possessor of a ring decision that proved nothing much of any thing. Rhufflin' Phil, with fin agonized lungo that seemed prompted some what by second thought, fell to the canvas In the second round In his bout with the black-thatched Norwegian, OUo Von Porat, last night, after being hit low by a left hook. After considerable hesi tation and a good deal of reluct ance on tho part of the referee, none other than Jack Dempsey, Scott wa awarded tho verdict on a foul, to the accompaniment of n tremendous roar 'of disapproval from the crowd of some IS, 000 fans. Thus, what was to have boon the Aiar 12-round attraction of the I pueh bally-hooed Christmas fund help determine a logJcal opponent for .lark Sharkey in a final cham pionship test, came to a sudden, inconclusive and thoroughly un satisfactory finish. Mow Was liOW. Scott ' unquestionably was hit low., at least six inches below the belt, by a sweeping left -that Von lorat started from : somewhere near the floor. To the majority of ringside observers, as well as to Dempsey, It also appeared that Scott was not badly hurt. - In fact,' jjempsey seemed to think the.-fight should go on and made some fu tile gesture to bring this about. Scott meanwhile was writhing in; apparent agony upon .the floor. The seconds jumped in from both corners, rushing the fighters, as well as Dempsey. . If It had been pre-arranged, there hardly coiilu have -htfen any more chaos than imitted for fully a minute.

After n hasty, hut ineffectual effort to convince Kcott It would he worthwhile to continue fighting, Dempsey ren dered the verdict that gave victory to the liritlsher. Thereupon he stepped from the ring to he greet ed iky the hooes of a crowd that only a few minutes previously had given him a sensational ovation.
