This was the view of the commis- sion in backing up the action of its officials. 1r. was the opinion of Dave Barry. the referee, and of the two judges. George Lytton and Shel- don Clark. prominent Chicago busi- ness men.

Why didn't Dempsey when Tunney did get up and make __ . a quickereffort to complete the Job? That was another question. 1t 3 may have been Tunney’s foot rac- ing skill, his dizzy back pedalling. that frustrated a fresh Dempsey charge. but it seemed, as the pic- tures ‘were studied, that the ex- champion let many precious seconds

round, and whether or not the shlnlk "long" count of nine-actually oc- zupying a space of 13 or l4 seconds, saved Gene Tunney from losing the heavyweight crown ‘to Jack Demp- ‘sey. The official decisio i in Tunney’s favor. on the score of the delay in counting in the seventh round until Dempsey was waved to a corner. as well as on the verdict at the close in the champions favor, stands as it was rendered last night. The State Athletic Commission settled this at a session in which it heard and refused to allow a formal pro- test from Leo P. Flynn, Dempseys manager, who claimed that Tunney was actually knocked out and that Dempsey was "robbed" of the cham- pionship.‘ At the same time a. loop- hole was left for further appeal by Flynn.

Dempsey himself refused to sup- port Flynn's action‘ today at least. and through his agent. Arthur F. Driscoll, of "New York. made it known that he was considering m "squawk“ or protest at present.

On Saturday afternoon, a large number of footb ll players took ad- vantage of the ﬂ t work-out of the season and attended the Abegweit practice on P. W. C. grounds.

There was eleven of the twenty four players called out to practice on hand and all showed up pretty and are in good condition. H. Saund ers, Ralph Jenkins, Jack Morris, Con. Campbell, M. Diamond, George Wood, Jack McLeod, Joe Lonergan, St. C. ‘Prainor. S. DesRoches and F. McLean were among the ones that were out, also McNutt, Lou Gal- lant, Arnett and L. McDonald, they werc coached along by Prof. W. J. McDonald, who will also take his place on the line-up after it get-s shaped up good. A few fellows we would like to see out next time is Ed. Lynds, Fred McCarey. Fred Mc- Cabe. Len Connolly, Jack Connolly. ‘ Stan. Biggar. Ivan Horne, A. Hagen and A. Darraclic, S. Diamond and D Diamond.

So it will stay on the records as 1 10-round decision for Tunney, but there were thousands today, those who had seen the fight and those who studied its seventh round de- .ails closely in the slow motion. pic- ures convinced that untoward cir- ‘ nces cost Jack Dempsey the, reatest triumph of his career.

The pictures not only sh wed that the time elapsing during ghe count "if "nine" was actually nearer 1-1 seconds. but they indicated that Tunney. had he been- mpelled to {et up earlier than he id. probably vould have been a wobbly. easy target for the finishing waJlop.

On Saturday the last yachting race of the cup series was held on the Charlottetown Harbor.

There was a light wind. but suffi- cient to carry the yachts over the course in one hour and thirty-five minutes. ' '-

From the start to the finish the race was between thc Ghost and Minegoo and a real battle it was. Never on this harbor has the ﬁnish of a yacht race been so close, a blanket would have covered the two boats as they sailed over the linc, with the "Goo" a nose ahead of the Ghost.

There was only three boats out on
