G, TUNNEY WINS TITLE DECISION, POUNDING DEMPSEY 10 ROUNDS (Continued from First Page.) ready to battle any man Rickard selected. It was the completion of a seven- year cycle for each of the gladiators. In 1919 the raw and rugged fighting power of Dempsey lifted him to the world champlonship heights which he | contingent. top of their voices. “Come on, Gene,” was the favorite slogan, “Come on,” “Don’t give him a chance,” yelled others. Prominent Women Present. There was also a large number of Dempsey followers among the female ‘Give it to him, Jack,” successtully held for as long as any | they velled. man in the history of modern glove fighting. Simultaneously, Tunney was laying the foundation of his fighting career overseas with the ‘“Devil Dogs.” He was the champion of the American fighting forces and through a strug- gle that had its ups and downs he has reached the main goal. In the final analysis, Tunney's determination, his ability to overcome obstacles and his coolness were the factors that carried him to the top. He gave a spectacular example of his daring when, without warning and over the strenuous pro- tests of his manager and Promoter Tex Rickard, he flew by airplane from his training camp to the scene of bat- tle. The idea that he was running any risk on the day of his greatest ring test or that he was imperiling a $2,000,000 spectacle did not enter into his thoughts. Coolness Aided Him. The coolness with which Tunney stepped from the plane was with him when he climbed through the ropes to fight. It safeguarded him in the few instances when Dempsey, flashing something of his. oldtime power, threatened to turn the tide. Such was Tunney’s defense, how- ever, that Dempsey never more than threatened. In only two of the tep rounds—the sixth and seventh—was the champion conceded even an even break by the big majority of critics. It was due then®more to Tunney's very tactics than Dempsey's own effectiveness. Dempsey displayed none of his famous dash at the start. Whatever aggressiveness he may have intended was thwarted before the first round was over. Tunney was sure of him- self after the first few exchanges. From then on. he held the upper hand. He sidestepped, blocked or re- treated from the champlon’s rushes. He moved inside of Dempsey's wild swings with lightning speed to deal battering drives to the head and body that ripped the titleholder’'s face and weakened his resistance. The challenger punched the cham- pion at least four times for every blow Jack delivered. In the fourth, sixth and seventh rounds Dempsey con- nected with left swings to the jaw that must have hurt Tunney, but the champion never was able to follow up his advantages. He kept boring in, weaving and bobbing, but his real flashes were shortlived and usually ineffective. Never regarded as an able defensive boxer, Dempsey was a ready target for Tunney's jabs and hooks. N Women Are Enthusiastic. Probably more women saw Tun- ney win the crown last night than ever before saw a champion topple from his throne. ireatly outnumbered by the men, they were plentifully sprinkled throughout the vast crowds, and they rooted just as hard for their favorite as did the deep-throated men. Thousands of women saw a pugilistic contest for the first time, many of them drawn to the great Sesquicentennial stadium not because of any great interest in the maulers, but to view and enjox the spectacle of such a great crowd of people gathered in one spot. Most of them soon fell victims to the enthusiasm of others and rooted for one fighter or_the other. It appeared that most of them were in sympathy with the handsome young Marine, who now sits on the pugilistic throne. Many did not re- strain themselves, but shouted at the STANDARD SUIT vxu.uzsls (With two pairs of knickers) Boys seven to eighteen will find that these new Fall school suits include all the new shades and come in mangish styles—tai- lored Tike Dad’s best busi- ness suit.

Official Headquarters for Boy Scout Egquipment A Barber Bill Shop Where Kiddies Enjoy a Hasrcut The Avenue at Ninth Among the fair sex were many women of prominence. Anne Mor- gan, daughter of the late J. P. Mor- gan, graced a ringside seat. Not far from her was Mrs. Nicholas Long- worth, the former Alice Roosevelt, with her husband, Speaker of the House of Representatives. There also was Lady Nettleton and her daugh- ter, Mrs. Hanford, MacNider, with her husband, Assistant Secretary of War, and Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Dewey with Mrs. Dewey. ‘Woman stage celegrities, including the former Glorla Swanson, Peggy Hopkins Joyce and Hope Hampton, were also in evidence. “‘First lieutenant, United States Ma- rine Corps Reservés” is the rank that will be bestowed upon Tunney. This announcement was made to- day by Col. Cyrus Radford, comman- dant of the Marine Corps in Philadel- phia. The colonel called Billy Gibson, Tunney’s manager, on the telephone seeking the new champion. “I wanted to tell him,” sald the colonel, “‘that he has passed his ex- amination for a comm Marine Corps and may ceive his commission in a few days.” Col. Radford also wished to convey to the new pugilistic king the personal congratulations of Maj. Gen. Lejeune, as well as that of the entire corps. ‘“We are very proud of him,” said Col. Radford. Referee Backs Decision. Tommy Reilly of Philadelphia, the referee, who was not called upon to make a decision in the fight, said to- day that had he been required to give a verdict, he would have cast his ballot for the new i Reilly said he gave Tunney rounds, the second was even, and two were Dempsey’s. “It was a battle of left hands,” said Reilly. “Tunney hit with remarkable precision, while Dempsey showed that his long lay-off affected his work to a great extent. He hit wildly and while he was apparently doing the right thing, his plans went wrong due partly to his inability to keep Tunney in front of him. 2011 ELEVENTH ST NORTH 5997 | Home of the “2-Pants’ “The new champion was constantly outguessing Jack. Of course this was made possible by the ever willingness of the champion to take the offensive, showing utter disregard for Gene's counters, some of which were timed beautifully “From the tap of the gong in the first round until the close of the bout, Dempsey was weaving in and trying to hit the pace that made him the famed ‘killer’ of other days. “But that famous Dempsey punch was myssing. The ‘sock’ only mate- rialized about four times during the entire 10 rounds. The new champlon, however, took them and refused to buckle under the attack. “Tunney showed he had planned his battle carefully. He knew what he wanted to do and did it at the right moment. He kept his head about him and fought a masterful fight. He emerged a champion in every sense of the word.” ‘Waiting was the watchword today for conqueror and conquered. Tunney plactdly awaited perfection of plans to return to his New York to receive the plaudits of the home folk. Demp- sey was impatiently waiting for the arrival of his wife, Estelle Taylor, speeding from the West, Tunney will go back to New York's Greenwich Village when they are ready to give him a welcome befitting his elevatfon to m's greatest heights. He probably will leave Phila- delphia tomorrow. Dem plans were uncertain pending arrival of his wife but it was expected they would soon return to the Pacific coast. The new champlon found today that his promotion had brought its respon- sibilities.' When he emerged this morning from the apartment where he spent the hours following his victory, he was joined by two detec- tives who will be his escorts during the remainder of his stay in Phila- delphia. Breakfasts With Cox. ‘With his friend and mentor, Wil- liam A. McC: one of the “first to see Tunney,” he breakfasted.at & hotel with James Middleton Cox, for- fmer Governor of Ohio, and then called on Tex Rickard, the man be- hind the golden tide flowing into the Sesqui. Stadium last night. Tunney was fit today, although tired from his exertions of the eve- ning and record-breaking lateness of his bedtime storfes. He did not seek repose until well into the morning hours, “I will always have a warm place In my heart for Philadelphia,” said the champlon as he voiced his appre- clation of the kindness of the people of the Sesqui City. § Dempsey spent the morning in his hotel room.

Water taken from municipally owned botling springs is used to make it disappear as if by magic. The springs, located within the coporate limits, produce vast quantities of water which na- ture has heated to approximately 106 degrees Fahrenhelt. This {s carried in tanks to the bust ness district, and the high-pressure pumps flush out the snow, clearing it within a few hours, regardless of the depth. The water contalns, 1,380 parts of sulphates to the 1,000,000. Thrown on the snow under high pres- sure, a cloud of steam arises and quickly the street is cleared. “Show me the most popular Styles purchased at P-B” in_picture and descriptive fotm is the result present those styles for Fall, 1926, which we find to be the choice of Washington’s well dressed men.
