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. News
papermen leaped up to demand
lo know the decision.- The judges
