TUNNEY WINS FROM DEMPSEY
WINS BY DECISION
AS 10th ROUND ENDS
Ringside, Philadelphia, Sept. 23. ? (Join* Tunney. j
JjL ihe fighting Marine, tonight officially wan declared
?l winner gf the world's heavyweight boxing title, ut the
1 end of his ten round huttle with Jaek Dempsoy, holder
of the championship for the last seven years.
Official notification of the referee's decision came
* few minutes after the closing round. In that last ,
clash, as in the round that had preceded it. the chain
(lion took severe punishment at the hands of the chal
lenger. He was groggy at the finish, though Tiinney's (
evident efforts for a knockout were futile.
Tuimey's victory was a triumph of hrain plus hrawu j
over hrawu plus the hrute ferocity which had carried
Dempscy to the world's title over Jess Willard in 1919,
and which had enabled him to hold it against such
challengers as Lurpcntier and the mighty l"ir|M>.
The outcome of tonight's hattle upset the sporting
dope completely. The odds were as high as 3 to I
favoring Dempscy when the hattle started, with many j
wagers that Tunney would not last four rounds.
Tunney took the first round. Dempscy had the bet
ter of it in the second, third and fourth. Thenceforth
the tide of hattle swung steadily and inexorably ill fa
vor of the challenger. Dempscy seemed to have lost |
much of his old stamina, and in the closing rounds
fought mainly on the defensive.
Incidentally, the hattle proved the superiority of the
Straight Right, Tunney's favorite hlow, over the Left
Hook, on which Dempscy had pinned his hope of vic
tory.
SPECULATORS TAKE LOSSES
Some 2,000 seats were still vacant when the crowd
had assembled for the fight. Many speculators were
forced to take heavy losses, some of the pasteboards
which cost them as high as $27.50 going for as low
as $1L
fThe attendance was estimated at 132,000. Dempscy
weighed in at 190; Tunney at lSa'/i. The blond chal
lenger received a tremendous ovation as he entered
the ring and walked to the center. A tremendous roar
from hack in the crowd heralded the news that Demp
sey with his body guard had set out for the ringside.
