TARNISH ON GLORY WON BYJMPSEY Hundreds of Fans Declare Sharkey Was Wrecked by Low Blow. COMEBACK IS SUCCESS 'Manassa Mauler’ Displays Flashes of Old-Time Ring Form. (Picture of Knockout, Pago 16) BY MORRIS DE HAVEN TRACY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, July 22. Jack Dempsey, who for seven years before he met Gene Tunney was the heavyweight champion of the world and the terror of the ring, has returned to glory. But already the glory is tempered by rumblings of controversy. He laid Jack Sharkey low and sent him beaten from the Yankee Stadium Thursday night, but there were hundreds near the ring who shouted from the housetops today that the blow preceding the knockout was below the belt and that Dempsey, all unintentionally, has won the right to meet Gene by fouling Sharkey. Sharkey himself contends the blow was unfair. Dempsey denies it. The referee sided with Dempsey and the examiner for the boxing commission could find no evidence to support Sharkey’s claim. Observers Disagree United Press staff men at the edge of the ring differed as to how the blows were struck. One believed there was no question about the legality of the knockout; another thought it was just on the belt line, and a third believed it low. It is worth noting that Sharkey wore his belt a good two inches higher than did Dempsey. But, foul or no foul, Dempsey made a better start on his comeback than has any heavyweight champion in history. He did it by virtue of a moment’s hesitation. In the seventh round those of the 80,000 people present who were fortunate enough to hold Othfer than so-called “ringside seats” saw Den>psey crash a blow to Sharkey’s body with such violence that he seemed fairly to bury his fist. Guard Drops Sharkey, shaken, terribly tortured with pain, sagged. His guard dropped and he hesitated, stopped fighting, and began mustering the strength he had left to protest that he had been fouled. Jack O’Sullivan, the referee, started to say something, hesitated a moment, and Jack Dempsey caught Sharkey with another terrific blow squarely on the chin. Sharkey dropped like a bag of grain tossed ashore by a stevedore. Those who could see knew it was all over. A happy, victorious Dempsey walked to a neutral corner. Dempsey gave the impression of & man who had a job to do and intended doing it. Sharkey was gay, and blustering. They went through the formalities of introduction—entirely unnecessary, as everyone knew them so well they called them by their first names—and then the gong clanged. Dempsey of Old Dempsey charged from his comer and fairly leaped into the fight. He poured blows at Sharkey’s body. Sharkey was not idle. He thumped and punched at Jack’s fighting face. Dempsey was crouching and weaving in old, tigerlike form, but as the round closed Sharkey was pounding him and he was staggered. There was a feeling sweeping through the crowd, however, that here was something approaching the real Dempsey once more. In the third Dempsey saw an opening and clipped the Lithuanian on the jaw. Sharkey went to his knees. His face showed plainly the pain he suffered, but he was getting up as the gang sounded. The fight went on, through round four and five and six, with Dempsey tiring plainly, but never faltering. He took blows which opened cuts on his face and made him bleed profusely, but he bored steadily in. The seventh round came. Sharkey was unmarked except for a redness around his mid-section. He was still the confident, cocky sailor boy. People were beginning to wonder if Dempsey could last it out. The former champion poured out his blows. There were three, punishing ones, suddenly landed down toward the belt-line and probably no one could see just how far down. Then the fourth crumpled Sharkey. A wild shout went up which shook the echoes of the Yankee stadium as they never shook to honor Babe Ruth when he drove a homer with the bases full, and the battle was over.

Hear Returns The Times blow by blow story of the Dempsey-Sharkey fight was heard by several hundred people who gathered Thursday night in front of The Times building in • Maryland St. No announcement had been made, but when the crowd gathered an aryjouncer and a megaphone were pressed into service.

ARMITAGE TOO ILL TO PRESS TRIALMOTION Hearing Set for Saturday Is Likely to Be Delayed by Sickness. NOW AT FISHING CAMP Doctors Believe Prison Term Would Hasten Death of Politician. The physical condition of James E. Armitage is such that he will be unable to attend a hearing on his motion for anew trial in Criminal Court, Saturday, it was announced today. Armitage is under a sentence of three months on the Indiana State Farm, and a SSOO fine for an alleged attempt to bribe Claude Achey, former grand jury member, not to vote for indictment of Mayor John L. Duvall several weeks ago. Asa result of Armitage's incapacity, the illness of Prosecutor William H. Remy, and the absence from the city of Special Prosecutors Emsley W. Johnson, and John W. Holtzman, who helped convict Armitage, the hearing set for Saturday was postponed. Judge James A. Collins said the hearing probably would be in September, when court reconvenes after vacation. Paralysis Attack It was learned that Armitage, who has been at his fishing camp on the Tippecanoe River, has suffered a recurrence of paralysis, from which he has suffered for years. Dr. Samuel E. Earp and Dr. B. B. Pettijohn, whom Armitage has consulted in the past, agree that he is in no condition to undergo the State Farm sentence at this time. Dr. Earp, who has treated tage since boyhood, said that Armitage's nervous system is abnormal and he has suffered four strokes of paralysis. “Jeopardize His Health” “I am convinced,” writes Dr. Earp, "that to confine James Armitage would jeopardize his health and perhaps his life.” Dr. Pettijohn, in a similar statement says: "Armitage has lately had attacks in which he has become unconscious for short periods of time. Prognosis In this case is unfavorable and I am afraid will terminate In early fatality.” Dr. Pettijohn also urges a stay in proceeding against Armitage until his health improves.

Ferdinand showed in his last testament, will and codicil that he did not expect his son to assume the throne. The codicil disinheriting Carol was drawn up Jan. 11, 1926. Under its terms, Michael, Carol’s son, became the heir to the crown. The document, read yesterday in Pelisor Palace before the body of Ferdinand was brought from Siniai to Bucharest, urged the people of Rumania to support the regency until the young King Michael assumes the actual reins of government. The original will left Carol the royal palaces, but because of his renunciation of the throne he will receive only the money and securities to which he legally is entitled as a son of Ferdinand. Queen Marie, the widow, inherits the royal palaces. A country estate and home Is bequeathed to each of the daughters, except the queen of Jugo- & iQOQfijr and securities. A substan-
