The Fight by Rounds FIRST ROUND irimly determined, Tunney whipped a solid right to Heeney's jaw. The challenger ducked and swarmed all over Gene with short right hooks to the chin that drove the champion to the ropes; Hee- ney shot a solid right to the head. Using his right, Gene crashed two on Heeney's jaw, but a sweeping left hook in return almost bowled the champion over. Tunney came out fast, stabbing with his left, but Tom beat both hands in tattoo on Tunney’s chin. Gene ripped a smatl right to- Heeney's heart, buts it never moved the echallenger, Tunney was on the run as Tom ripped after him, both hands flail- ing to Gene’s head. A bad bruise appeared over Tunney's left eye as the round ended SECOND ROUND Tunney, startled by Heeney's fiery offensive, started boxing and shot a left to Heeney's head, but couldn’t keep the challenger away. Tunney blasted a left and right in- to the sturdy head, hard as rock, without causing a flicker of the Anzac's eyes. They swapped hooks and a furious exchange took place. Tunney sparred as Tom ripped in. ‘When Gene's left hook dropped | low, Tom mentioned it. Gene smil- ed and asked forgiveness. A sec- ond later both were crashing each head clouts, which rocked both on their heels. The crowd its approval. THIRD ROUND Unawed by Tunney's newly- found right, Heeney plodded into a right-handed exchange. Tom dropped his guard and sfood be- fore the champion, hands ready! and daring another exchange. Gene accommodated Tom only to be| cracked by lefts and rights and vi- roared | clous pokes that stung. Gene seem. |’ ed not to like that and bounced back on the defense, spearing the challenger ‘with a succession of lefts. Tunney slipped as Heeney swept a right hook to the head, nearly falling, but came back with- out a fall and unhurt. Heeney slugged viciously at the champion’s head while Tunney planted solid left hooks to the body. FOURTH ROUND Sympathetic at Heeney’'s unex. pected showing, the crowd bellow. ed the invader on as he whipped | short left and right hooks to' Gene's chin. Tunney bounced twe rights off Tom’s flinty chin that shot the challenger’s head back, and a stinging left-hook gained the upper hand decisively for the first time in the fight. Gene land- ‘ed three rights to Heeney's head with all his strength, that Tom felt. Tunney pressed two crush-| ing rights to the . heart. Bload was beginning to drip from Tom's chin, but he tore savagely in and| nailed the champion to the ropes with a rocking volley to the head holdjng Tunney in the same posi- tion as when Dempsey floored him last fall. Tunney fought vainly to get out, but Heeney nailed him repeatedly to the head. The bell broke up the onslaught. FIFTH ROUND Tunney smashed a right full un- der Heeney's heart but the chal- lenger seemed to like it and closed in to glug at the champion’s body. GENE TUNNEY other in a slugging exchange of | Who last night gave challenger Tom Heeney a terrific drubbing {in the Yankee Stadium in New York City. | | | | TOM HEENEY the count. Tunney pecked steadily away. SIXTH ROUND Tunney's detense had Heeney troubled as Tom found his clouts caught on the champion’s arms and his body battered by Gene's thudding rights. The champion stepped in with a bull-like left hook to the body. Tunney bounced a right off Heeney's face in the clinch. Tunney was roughing it at the bell. SEVENTH ROUND Gene Tunney was content to maul the challenger and killed the frequently, his short arms going by Tunney's head. Tom caughi| the champion near the ropes and slashed a left and right to Gene's head. Gene wobbled and tore out of a precarious position, landing in the center of the ring before Toa | could get away from the ropes Gene was boxing easily and spear- ing with his left at the bell, EIGHTH ROUND Freshened by half a bucket of water over the head, Tunney came out and held the challenger help- less. Heeney's left eye swoliea and nearly closed by a right hook left him in a deplorable condition. He could hardly see from that eye. It finally closed and the| challenger tore in with one good eye. Tunney, seeing his advan- tage, held the challenger a mo- ment. and then pumped lefts and rights to Tom’'s head and body. Tom wobbled. Blood spurting from his nose, he lashed out despair- ingly and Tunney met the attack. NINTH ROUND Barely able to see from his left eyve, despite ministrations, Heeney zallantly piled into the champion. It seemed that dye from his tights had gotten onto Tunney’s gloves and into the challenger’s’ eye. Tun- ney, sportsmanlike, stopped. Then he slugged with the challenger, but Tom got the worst of the encoun- ter, as Tunney's knifing lefts drummed his head. Blood began to ooze from Heeney's eye. It was a gory sight. Heeney again summoned his strength and rip- ped a right and left to the cham- plon's head. TENTH ROUND Heeney, with his eye almost nor- mal again, came out doggedly. Gene grabbed him as he lunged, and sank a left and right to the body.

The bell | rang with Heeney out flat on his | back. He had to be carried to his ! corner where his seconds worked over him to restore him for the next round. ELEV [H ROUND Tunney came out with a rush, shooting a left which missed. He then measured Tom for the fimal blow. Showing amazing recuper- ative vers, his head a mass of blood, Tom plunged again into the champion, Gene smashed him { with a right to the head and one to the heart that sent Tom reeling. Tom could barely stagger to place his back to the ropes. As the chal- lenger stood swayirg, Tunney, half kidding, stabbed easily with a left ed Tom about the head on the and let him get away.
