The announcement of Tunney's | vetirement, certified by no less an au- thority than Billy Gibson, the cham-| pion's manager, means that the old relations are back with us again This means that the a ngements y a pugilist would be done the old way—that is, the manager signs and promises most anything and | the puglist, perforce, goes through with | the contract.

There will be a wild | scramble among the various heavy- weights to fall heir to the title. If one is to judge by the lamentable exhibi- tion of the Winter elimination tourna- ment, there is no prospect of a real champion being uncovered. | Here they are: John Ris Jack | Sharkey, Paolino Uzcudun, Knute Han- sen, and possibly one or two more of | the lesser lights will be nominated by the arch-juggler, Tex Rickard, to un- scramble the mess and leave one to be called the champion ‘Then there are members of a lighter class, who could, with the addition of |a few pounds, make their presence felt as heavyweights. Leading these is the light-heavy- weight champion, Tommy Loughran: | Leo Lomski, Armand Emanuel and Charley Belanger, the Canadian cham- plon. Loughran has had designs on the heavyweight title for the past year Now that he has cleaned up his own class and going through the list again the opportunity to compete among the | heavies will not be denied him. | The writer believes that a champion will be uncovered from among the | cruiser liams Ross Counc.
