Body Hints at Shady Work in Bout at New York. TRAINED VERY LITTLE I Gamblers Jumped Odds in Thirty Minutes. Ill' United Press NEW YORK. May 2. Jac k Sharkey's sensational one-round knockout of Jack Delaney may lead to a thorough investigation of the match and the training tactics oi Delaney by the New York State athletic commission. The investigation, it was learned. | will be directed at Delaney's tactics Word has been received from Bridgeport, Conn., where Delaney lives and trained for the bout, that the former light heavyweight champion worked as little as three minutes on several occasions before the fight. His training program, it was said, consisted mostly on golf, the j French-Canadian regarding Sharkey as a “set-up." If such is found to be the case Delaney probably will be barred from boxing in New York State ; following a precedent set in 1925 when Eddie Shea was quietly barred from appearing here after he was knocked out in four rounds by the then bantamweight champion, Phil ! Rosenberg. Sharkey knocked out Delaney in 1 minute 13 seconds, Monday. I Gamblers stirred up rumors of a ■ “frame-up” before the bout when ■ the jumped the odds from 8 to 5, to 3’i to 1 in thirty minutes.
