PAGE SIX Chicago ‘CHAMP KEEPING IN GOOD SHAPE FOR NEXT BOUT Stamina, Saving Factor in Bat-) tle With Dempsey, Is Be- ing Maintained IN CONDITION ALWAYS ‘Bexing My Business,’ Gene Says—Plans to Make Good Job of It New York, Oct. 17.--(?—Gene Tunney, shunning the spotlight and spending a good deal of his time roughing it in the woods, is already going about the job of keeping him- self fit for his next title defense. Whether the heavyweight cham- pion stakes his crown next in Lon- don or New York, against Jack Dempsey, Jack Sharkey or Paulino Uzcudun, he will be in condition. Dempsey may have caught Tun- ney off guard in their famous seventh round, but he did not catch the blonde marine out of condition. Always 1s in Condition Stamina, built up by a year-round training program, saved the heavy- weight crown for Gene Tunney at Chicago. No one knows that better than Gene himself. “I never get ready for a fight by an intensive program of work a few weeks beforehand,” Tunney once explained. “I’m in condition all the time. My natural preference is for a life in the open, where I can build! up and develop my strength natur- ally.” The experts were a bit amazed at Chicago by the ease with which Tunney took matters before his re- turn battle with Dempsey. The champion mingled in society. He did little strenuous work with the gloves, but what he did was enough to keep him at the desired edge. No athlete was ever conditioned better for a hard fight than Tunney, when he stepped into the ring, at Soldier's Field. 1f he hadn’t been at his phy- sical peak, he could not have got| up from the resin and won after the} terrific series of shots his jaws ab- sorbed. | By the time the ballyhoo starts; next spring for the next battle of| millions, Tunney will be in shape. | He won't wait until Tex Rickard’'s elimination program has produced the logical challenger. _ ph “Boxing is my business,’ the champion says. “As long as I am in) it, I intend to make a thorough job] of it.” ALL-AMERICAN BACKFIELD HAS | ONE SURVIVOR Joesting Only One Remaining in Star Aggregation—Com- I petition Is Keen Brooklyn Robins Putting Forth) Unusual Efforts to Bolster Their Club BY ALAN J.

October performances are not al- ‘ways the deciding factor but they have at least brightened the all- American prospects of a flock of stars. Not the least of them is Myles Lane, Dartmouth’s shifty ball carrier, who leads the eastern scor- ers by a wide margin, and Christy Flanagan, climax runner of Notre Dame’s backfield assortment. Princeton Has Brace of Stars Princeton has a brace of stars in Baruch and Edd Wittmore, Yale an outstanding ball carrier in Bruce 4 Caldwell, and Pittsburgh a top rank- ing star in Gibby Welch, who was close to all-American choice last sea- son. Tiny Lewis, Northwestern’s battering ram, is a rival of Joest- ing’s for fullback honors while Spears of Vanderbilt and Drury of Southern California will be watched in other sections.

Oct. 17.—()—A crush- ing Notre Dame eleven, bearing down in the pinches when necessary and led by their scintillating star, Chris Flanagan, swept Navy to a 19 to 6 defeat Saturday in one of the season’s outstanding intersec- tional clashes. Notre Dame, with Flanagan providing the pressure, scored twice in the third veriod and once in the fourt’ after Navy made Sub Gets Counter Navy, taking full advantage of the “breaks” of the game, crushed over a touchdown in the first five minutes of play. Taking the ball after an exchange of punts on the 30 yard line, the Middies pushed to midfield. Hannegan, flashy Navy quarter, dodged through left tackle for 15 yards, and Bauer, in a single smash, punched through to Notre Dame's five yard line. After Rans- ford thrice failed to break through center, Spring, a substitute halfback, raced around Notre Dame's left end for the score. The try for point aft- er touchdown failed. The sudden Navy assault brought the “shock troops” of the Rockne- men back to the bench and the No- tre Dame veterans took up the task of overhauling the powerful Middy crew. Wayne went in at fullback and Riley at quarter, and Dahman at left half. Niemic completed the quartet. The line also underwent several changes. The smashing drive of Rockne’s regulars carried relentlessly through the Navy forward line and through | the air from midfield to the Middy 25 yard line before Bauer intercept- ed a Notre Dame pass. When Navy tossed Lloyd, 200- | pound backfield ace, into the fray.to start the second period, Notre Dame sent Christy Flanagan, shining light. of the Hoosier offense, to oppose him. © Flanagan opened up with a 15-yard toss to Walsh, that made a first down on his own 40-yard line. Three times Christy thrust at the Navy forwards and made another first down, Get to 20 Yard Line After tossing three successive for- ward passes to his ends, Flanagan finally was stopped on the Sailors’ its only score in the first quarter. \- to Meet Pennsylvania in Intersectional Clash [storm sim are outro tien Mandell, Walker MICKEY WALKER Mickey Walker (above) may have his middleweight crown rudely snatched away from him, if the Na- tional Boxing association, in session: today, heeds the pleas of Walk Miller, manager of Tiger Flowers, Sammy Mandell (below) hasn’t been active enough in defending his crown, the association members feel, are there is every possibility that he may wake up some of these morn- ings minus his laurels.

Flanagan thrice failed to complete forward passes that would have carried over the Navy! ‘oal line. Notre Dame tied the score short- ly after the third period opened when Walsh, right end, scooped up a blocked punt and raced 42 yards over the Navy goal line. The at- tempt at drop kick for point after touchdown failed. The score came after a punting duel in which Lloyd slowly gained yardage with long hoists. The No- tre Dame _ forwards, Middy star before he could get his kick-off on his own 82-yard line, raced almost through the Navy de- fense to the Middy 35 yard strip before being downed.

Bison Offense Weak In the face of the stalwart de- fense offered by the Bunnies, the offense of the yellow and green clad warriors appeared woefully weak. Time after time the big blue jer- seys which™covered the uppers of the State linemen were smashing into Bison backfield before the of- fense could begin to function. And, the few times the Bison of- fense really did get formed and started, the blockers might as well have been at home, fo. they were useless.
