ed man who cansee good in all

With Carpentler out of the way
Tommy Gibbons loomed as the next
logical note lathe bombastic bal-
lyhoo that was to carry ,Gene Tunney
to the front, as Dempsey'e foremost
challenger.
Already Tunney had done some-
thing Gibbons couldn't do: he had
stopped‘the Frenchman;- Gibbons in
addition to representing a stern
fightinltcet was replete with unus-
ual ballyhoo material. The ring still
know him as the only man who had
gone 16 rounds with the champion.
Earlier in the respective careers
of Gibbons and Tunney there had
been aetime when the St. Paul Irish-
man scoffed at Tunney'e ring abili~
ties.
I remember asking Tommy what
he thought of Tunney as I fighter a
few years ago when there was talk
of sending the ox-marine against
Harry Wills. the giant negro.
Tommy answered as a satiriet rath-
er than a critic. "Well. I'll say this
for him. He uses better English than
any fighter in the game."
Sooner No Longer. .
Later on when Tommy began to
feel himself slipping and the records
showed Tunney was advancing by
swift. sure strides. Gibbons ceased
to be a scoffer.
When Jimmy De Forest went to St.
Paul to sign Gibbons for a Tunney
match to be held at the Polo Grounds
in New York he was not greeted
by. what you might exactly call In
enthusiastic battler teeming with
eagerness to decorate the dotted line.
A piece of shrewd managerial
strategy sponsored by Billy Gibson
crept ineldiousiy into the proceed-
ings at this stage. By wh appeared
to be an Insignificant incidence
(but what was in actuality a care-
fully worked out program) Tunney
was matched to fight Greb. in Tom-

0n the night of their fifth fight
Gibbons occupied a ringside sent. He
was there to see how much Tunney
had advanced and what he (Gib-
bons) would have to do In order to
win If he ultimately signed with De
liorest.
Gibson's original thought was to
turn Tuuncy loose from the opening
gong and win by such a convincing
margin that the assembled critics
would launch a bullyhoo of their
own accord and force Gibbons into
a match with Tunney.
With this in mind Tunney opened
up energetically against the Pitts-
burgh freak and battered him
around the ring practically as be
pleased for four rounds.

lCEMAN’S JOB

FOR GRID suns
Many and Varied Ceilings

Summer vacation!
It means anything but that to the
college football aspirant nowadays.
Instead the July-August period is
taken up with various jobs that will
help to put the aspiring gridder in
first-class physical condition.
True, a little loose change Is made
on the side. but the main' reason for
sldestepping the easy life at some
summer resort or on a fishing taunt
is to “prep" for the big grind.
The job of toting ice, made fu-
mous by “Red" Grange. the Wheaten
wizard. calls a majority of the boy's.
Grange's ice-carrying activities have
spread far and wide. Other foot—
ballers before him (Eddie Tryon of
Colgate, for one) played the Ice-
man's rolev—but with less notoriety.
Almost every college and univer-
sity has students listed with the ice-
heaving brigade this summer. There
are a few lads, however. that have
taken to other forms of equally as
beneficial employment.
h‘or in a t a n c e . there's Bennie
Oosterb'nan. Michigan's famous All-
American end of 1925. Bennie is a
life-guard at one of the beaches on
Lake Michigan. Bennie. an expert
swimmer. knows equally well how
to grab bothers out of the water and
forward passes out of the ozone.
With Oostcrbaan is ”Flop" Flora.
another Michigan star.

Even Bill Fincber. line coach and
famous Tech/player of a few years

the rest of the boys.
Perhaps the most unusual 'eummer
lob, however. is that‘of Herman
Cohen. another Northwestern foot-
ball star. “Duke". as he's known

Cohen, incidentally. has developed

Gibson had sensed this. too. He
probably had sensed it before Tun-
ney. huny years of experience in
the corner behind the sharpshootlng
Leonard had given him a remark-
able intuition in this respect.
Between Two Desires.
Gibson now found himself torn be-
tween two surging desires. One was
to have Tunney go into the records
as the first fighter to knock out
Greb since the windmill become I
star. The other was to make sure
that Gibbons would still be in the
mood to take on Tunney when the
fight was over.
Although the reasoning was at
vsrlhnce with his original thought.
Gibson decided on the latter policy.
"Let him stay." he whispered in Tun.
ney's car as he massaged the fight-
er's neck with his right hand. "if
Gibbons learns you've developed a
punch we'll have a hard time making
the match."
So Greb stayed and Gibbons finally
signed for the match which was to
topple him into the resin and ob-
livion simultaneously for the first
time.
Gibbons was pathetic in that fight.
Knocked out In the twelfth round it
was evident as early as the third
round that he would never go the
distance.
Whipped Him Easily.
Tunney out-noodicd him. outbox-
ed him and out-siugged him. from
start to finish. You aren't supposed
to do much more in order to win
under the Queensberry rules.
The squawkers. who were taken
for their bankroiis by the surprising
result. turned their depraved spleen
on the battered Gibbons, and charg-
ed he had taken a dive.
I had a. few smnckers riding on
Gibbons myself that night. My
stupeficstion was as acute as the
next one‘s at the utter lack of effl-
clency Gibbons showed against Tun-
ney. But nobody can tell me Gib-
bous I‘took one."
Tunney won mainly because he
was the better man in every impor.
that essential. The surprise was that
he did not win quicker.
Stir-4'51) interest
Unquestionably Lazzeri and Melli-
lo have stirred up a keen interest
among the Italian fans. who have
always been strong for the game.
These two players. certain to be
stars will give the sons of Italy’s
chance to do some arguing when a
discussion arises as to whether the
Irish. Dutch or Italians make the
but ball players.
I understand that in all the llailan
barber shops in New York the name
of Lasseri has supplanted that of
Ruth and a picture of Tony graces
the walls of every real up-to-date
place.
it is dangerous to say anything
unkind about Tony if you want to
get a. good shave or hair cut.
Praise him and you can almost
walk out without paying your check.
Words of praise for Tony will pass
for tips.
Both Laueri and Mollllo are sec.
cud-suckers and have greatly helped
their respective clubs. in fact. no
player on the New York team has
been a bigger factor in the Yankees'
winning ways than Laszeri.
