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.

SOME people are lucky, others
just cart away the prizes by
natural ability, they say. Few,
however take home the bacon with-
out winning a
verdict. That's
what Joel Baker,

Terre Haute, Ind.,
last summer. Joel
played in the
qualifying round,

pionship bracket.
He was paired in

another consolation flight. Then his
opponents began failing to appear.
He moved forward by the default
route and won the flight prize with
out winning a match on the fair
ways. Then Joel traded his prize
for one of more value held by the
winner of the bracket he was
j originally in. Other golfers have;
failed to figure whether Joel is lucky
or just a good business man. “More ;
