Jack lost his heavyweight crown to ex-Marine Tunney of New York that night of Sept. 23. 1926, -in the rain at Philadelphia’s Municipal Stadium. The 68-year-oki Manassa Mauler, here in Minneapolis for an appearance Monday night at the Minneapolis Boys’ Club, told a sports writer: “I didn't feel sick before the fight. But I felt terribly sick after it. And the doctor who examined me at Atlantic City—l believe it was — said I looked as if I’d been given a Mickey Finn.” If it were a Mickey, Dempsey declared, "rm sure Tunney had nothing to do with it.” Dempsey made his comments about the Mickey Finn in reply to questions concerning a story printed Monday in the Birmingham (Ala.) News. Sports editor Benny Marshall of the News said in the story that Dempsey had told him he lost his title to Tunney because he was drugged. Marshall said the drug was placed in Dempsey’s breakfast coffee at his Atlantic City training camp.
