Gene Thinks He Can Stop* Tom Heeney Tunney in Top Form; Believes He Is Hitting Harder.

BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent SPECULATOR, N. Y., July 16. Gene Tunney does not think his heavyweight championship bout with Tom Heeney at Yankee Stadium, July 26, will go the limit of fifteen rounds. “The fight is very apt not to go fifteen rounds,” the champion said today, “with two big rugged fellows like Heeney and me in there going after each other, one of us is likely to be stopped before the finish, and I do not expect to be that one.” Tunney believes he is stronger, faster and hitting harder today than he did in either of his two bouts against Jack Dempsey. If the bout goes fifteen rounds, Tunney is not afraid of his endurance and is confident he will be stronger over the last five rounds than Heeney. Tunney has engaged in five fif-teen-round contests. He boxed Greb two fifteen-round bouts in 1923, winning both of them, and one fifteen-round bout in 1922, losing the decision. He defeated Martin Burke, New Orleans heavyweight, in fifteen rounds in 1924 and Jeff Smith the same year over the same route. Harold Mays, Bayonne (N. J.) light heavyweight, a replica of Tom Heeney in action, says Tunney is hitting harder than he did before the first Dempsey bout. He was one of Tunney’s sparring partners two years ago. Tunney impressed the largest crowd that ever saw him work out at Speculator, Sunday afternoon, with his marvelous physical condition. After the workout, Tex Rickard, who had not seen Tunney in the ring since the Dempsey fight at Chicago, said he was surprised at the champion’s condition. “Tunney appears ready to go into the ring tonight to defend his title,” Rickard said. “His problem now is to keep his fighting form until the night of the fight. If anything, the champion is a little too fine, I think.” Roy Howard, president of the Scripps-Howard newspapers, spent che week-end at Speculator, the guest of Rickard.

Feet First Proper Way to Start Out Shimming

Phyllis Zitenfleld demonstrates the kick for the crawl stroke. Note that the knees are kept straight.

This Is the third of a series of swimming articles written for The Indianapolis Times by the Zltenfleld twins, junior long distance champions. BY THE ZITiNFiELD TWINS For NEA Service “Yj'EET FIRST” is a good way t<j -T start learning how to swim. By that we mean that if you ■ want to swim, you just must teach those feet of yours to work. Before you begin your kicking lessons, it is just as well to see that you are still in the shallow part of the pool so your feet if dropped, would land safely on the bottom. For you must have confidence before you can concentrate on swimming. Start Right We advise against learning the breast stroke first. You might as well start in with the crawl stroke, which is the one you will use when you really can swim. First, hang onto the side of the tank with your hands and practice kicking. Stretch out on top of the water, always holding on with .your hands. ' Keep your knees straight. That is the most essential thing about it. Start kicking up and down, alternating with the left and right leg, keeping it straight out behind. Do this slowly. Try it with someone else counting one-two, one-two, rather slowly. Continue for five minutes the first day. If you think this is easy, try it. If you get a paip or two with this, that is all right too. Put it down to the growing pains of a swimmer. If you really do kick systematically with the regularity of a paddle, without stopping a single second, for five or even eight minutes a day, you will get into the kicking habit, which is a sure sign of a swimmer. Remember to keep the knees straight. Strong swimmers always kick without bending the knees. Develop a strong, hard stroke, from the hip.

Bu United Preen NEW YORK, July 16.—Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig came out of a batting slump Sunday and hit a home run each in the second game of the double-header between the Yankees and the Cleveland Indians. It was Ruth’s thirty-fourth of the season and Gehrig’s nineteenth. New York won both games, 3 to 0 and 6 to 4. Want more work? Insert your business notice in The Times want ad columns.

This is not only good for starting swimmers in the right path; it is excellent for lame people, people with foot .trouble and for those who are, for one reason or another, weak on their feet. Kick; don’t bend the knees; develop regularity, like a pendulum. Suit the count to your own speed, for each swimmer has his own rhythm. In rhythm, you can do your best. Out of rhythm, you will hard to swim at all. \
