‘. A HARDTASK
Spalla Is Hard Man to
Reach With :1 Finish-
ishlng Wallop
NEW YORK. June 34. -~Gens
Tunney. who will go to war with Er-
mlnio Spalla, heavyweight champion
of Europe. in the twelve round cbm-
bat preceding the Harry Grebdred
Moore world‘s championship mid-
dleweight bout at -tho Yankee Sta-
dium on Thursday night. expects to
knock out the foreigner as the first
step in a campaign toward a tilt
with Jack Dempsey next year. After
meeting Spells our Gene will tackle
Georges Carpeniier another torelgn
gentleman. Tunney hopes to score
anotherdtnockout there. After that.
it everything goes as he has planned.
Gene will hook up with Tom Gib-
bons. all this leading up to the pro-
posed fracas with Dempsey.
Tunney has trained as never be-
fore. has worked away diligently in
the open air at his place in Red
Bank N. J.. until he is as brown as
a berry and as at as a fiddle. if we
may be permitted to ring in those
two bromides. But with all his nt~
ness and ambition Gone is likely to
find the task of flattening Spalls. too
much for him.
Spalla was not much of a fighter
when he was in this country before.
but evidently he has improved a. bit.
even though, it is difficult to see how
he could have advanced much by
mingling in European heavyweight
society.
Fred Sears. who went to South
America with Al Reich for tho
Adonis's bout with Luis Angel Firpo
last winter. got there in time to see
the scrap between Firpo and Spailn.
The Italian. it will be remembered.
sot into the fourteenth round with
the Wild Bull before being flattened.
Sears hands out the information that
Snails. has become something of an
artist in avoiding punishment when
the going becomes too rough to suit
him. Fred believes that Tunney will
find it no easy task to land a finish-
ing punch on the big fellow from
Italy.
Spoils. Hard to Catch.
"Anybody will admit that Firpo
can punch, but for a long time it
appeared that Spalla was going to
stick it out for the full t‘ltteen
rounds." remarked Sears. “Firpo
was not in the best of shape. I will
admit, nothing like the shape he
Was in when he knocked out Reich.
but he was in there trying all the
way.
"Spaila is a. hard man to catch
with s. finishing wallop when he
makes up his mind that he wants to
hang around. He covers up and
backs up and presents a. target on
which it is hard to find an opening
for is. damaging punch.
"If Tunney pelts the Italian
around in the early rounds, Gene is
going to .-find himself up against a
in: in his campaign for a battle with
the heavyweight champion. n. will
be able to point out that he finished
the European champion in less time
than Fix-pa. who gave Dempsey urns
vary unpleasant momenta. required
to stow, away Snails.
It is a cinch that Spalla will stick
it out as long as he can that it will
be a. genuine knockout if he is stop—
Ded. for the Italian is getting a large
Road of lucre for this bout. and
would like to get several more big
shots before he returns to his native
Italy to live- on the fat of 't land.
It appears that Tunney will e to
show a genuine sleep producing
punch to stop the invader. If Gone
can accomplish the goal he has set
himself in this contest he should be
able to carry out the next step In
his campaign. the flattening of
Georges Carpontier. Knockouts over
Spalls. and Carpentler would boost
Tunney'a stock many points and
make him a favorite over Tom Gib-
bons. who failed to put away car-
pentier in their recent argument at
Michigan City.

A rum. OF STEEL \VOOD.
(Fire Prevention Magazine.)
An employs was carrying a bale
of this material on his shoulder and
accidentiy placed the end of the bale
against the open door of a cabinet
enclosing an electrical switchboard
panel. The steel wool acted is an
electrical conductor. causing a short
circuit between terminals of a
switch. The material being coated
with oil burned freely after being
heated to incandescenco by the flow
of current through it. The rapidity
of the tire may be indicated by the
fact that ten sprinkler heads opera-
ted.
The second fire occurred while the
steel wool was being used to finish]
hardwood floor. It came against a
tacie installed neAr the floor level.
