Specula- tors, holding large blocks tickets started umloading late in the af- ternoon attempting to get rid of $40 pasteboards for $20. More than 5,500 ushers, police and othar employees composed the crew handing the crowd. The ring | was pitched 50 yards, from' the | army and navy elevens battled last November before 110,000 spec. tators. The ring floor was heavily padded, covered with canvas anc was five feet above the ground. Four lights of 1,000 watts eacn hung suspended 15 feet above th. | ring, flooding it with light.

He he arose, strength off Jack's the round. Shot His Bolt Jack was unable to follow up his onslaught. He seemed to have shot his big bolt in the seventh and was visibly slower and weaker during the last three rounds, while Tunney ripped and slashed him mercilessly. There was no murmur of protest when ,referee and two judges an- their unanimous de- cision for the Champion. Has Big Edoe The Champion had a big edge, and his sensational comeback from the verge of defeat, his merciless pounding through the last three rounds more than equalled the big seventh round that went for Dempsey. The Associated Press rheoet gave Tunney seven rounds and Dempse§ three. Others,gave Jack but two with one tled. The Associated Press, however; gave him the third, sixth and sev- enth rounds, with all the Tunney’s by good margins. In the first half of the Hl.!lll the Champion piled up a stantial margin on points as he outboxed, outstepped and outhit the bobbing, weaving challenger.’ Dempsey uncorked his first flash of powor in the third, stag- gering Gene with a sweeping right to the head, a variation from an attack that chiefly had been confined to the body.
