John Leo Stack, one of the best known members of the Knights of Col- umbhus in the west, is in receipt of a let- ter from Tommy Gibbons, in which the latter declares that he is anxious for a ~ bout with Bob Martin, champion heavy- weight of the A. E. F. The letter is in response to one Stack sent Gibbons, ask- ing the latter if he would box Martin in Denver before members of the Knights of Columbus. Gibbons declares that he has made a number of overtures to Martin to box him any number of rounds, for that the soldier champion has refused to accept. At that, we can’t blame Martin. Tommy Gibbons, like his famous brother, Mike, is one of the cleverest big men in the ring today. We believe he could casily outpoint Jack Dempsey. Martin is in the making. Why should he go up against a finished fighter like Gibbons at this stage of the gume. Martin is wisely picking the mediocre y boxers now ard wearing off his own rough edges. Gradually he will take on better opponents and when he feels that he is “there” he will issue a challenge to the champion heavyweight of the world—no matter who that person be.

Just as soon as a recruit who has been praised by Donavon is placed on the waiver market, Mitchell will grab him up. This may give the Cubs a young regiment of players, yet it may give Mitchel! a number of young stars who have not had sufficient encourage- ment from another big league club. peas eee ga ae MLEOD STALKS ‘RUSSIAN LION’ Would Arrange Match between Coast Mat Artist and Jack Taylor, Heavyweight George McLeod is making arrange- ments to match Jack Taylor, Casper's heaviest wrestler, against the “Russian Lion” who has been making a/name for himself on the Pacific coast. Tay- lor has been working oft practically every night since he returned’ to Wy- oming from an eastern trip. The “Rus- sian Lien” probably will meet Taylor, who weiglig 210 pounds, the middle of February, according to present indica- tions. On account of the expense of holding the boxing and wrestling matches up erect a big ringfat the Jazzland thea- ter, sell seats at more popular prices, and limit the ticket sale to 500 or 600. “There will be no change in the qual- ity of my shows and the only differ- ence will be that the risk will not be great.” *° aitho certain expenses incurred in promoting athletic events are covered on a percentage basis, others are guar- experience.

In many camps and posts men are be- ing trained in the skilled trades and at practically all Army stations, schools are in operation in which the soldier can improve his education. Through enlistment the United. States Army offers opportunities to travel. It provides good food, good © clothes and good care. It gives a training which brings health—phy- sical development— mental quick- ness and self-confidence. It sends you back to civil life better equipped for American citizenship than when you enlisted. A Personal Interview Involves no Obligation THE NEAREST U. S.
