Ladies of unquestioned standing %re frequenting boxing bouts in large numbers. : Considering the unsatisfattory exhi- bitions which have been staged of late, even among fighters who have held or as- pired to world championships, it is a re-j markable that the bexing world has been able to hold ‘iis customers so well. It is natural ,therefove, that comparisons _ are being niade between modern pugilists and the old-timers. Many have speculated, for example, | ‘on what would have happened if Sullivan in his prime had met like Jack Dempsey or Tunney. No one wil} ever know, but. when it is remeiibered that Sullivan and Kilraine fongit 75 rounds with bare knuckles in the last championship contest under London prize ring rules, the stamina of those old- timers can not > discounted. That was in 1889, since which time gloves have been used, 2nd no championship battle -has last- a fighter | ed more than 26 rounds under the new rules, Under the old London bare-knuckle rules a round did not end until one of the fighters ~7a3 on the ground. Then, after only 30 seconds rest, they went at it’ again. As Jack Dempsey has pointed out, while suliiven in his decline was defeated by Jim Corbett is a glove contest, Sullivan went to his grave as the undefeated, bare- knuckle champion. In comparison with Sullivan, most of our modern fighters seem ‘like moliycoddles. HANDICAPS OVERCOME An anonymous writer has called at- tention to some of the handicaps which were overcome by those whom the world now recognizes as geniuses and-leaders of the first rank. Among those mentioned are the following: Demosthenes, who became one of the world’s greatest orators, stuttered in his youth, Julius Caesar and Napoleon Bona- parte, two of the greatest generals and statesmen.of all time, were epiléptics. So was Mohammed, who founded a religion which now has more than 200 million ad- herents. Alfred the Great, considered the ‘‘wis- ext, best and greatest king” of England, had a lifelong internal disease. Among authors and poets Carlyle was a dyseptic, Byron had a club foot, Keats | had tuberculosis, Milton was blind, Pope was a hunchback. Darwin suffered from a nervous dis- ease, and Beethoven composed some of and his most majestic musical works after he | had become totally deaf. In our own generation, the great Stein- metz, was a deformed dwarf, and Helen Keller, one of America’s most accomplish- ed women, has been deaf and blind from childhood. The list of world famous notables who have labored under, serious handicaps might be extended almost indefinitely. Their example should be inspiring to any who are inclined to complain about minor atilictions or difficulties. ce RATS ‘AID SCIENCE ~ For venturics the rat has been one of the worst enemies of mankind, destroying fuod, spreading disease and otherwise be- ing a generai nuisance. In recent years, however, scientists have found a practical use fer limited numbers of these rodents, which heve been employed in connected with human nutrition. Some inte csting results from experi- mentine with rats are reported by Dr. Hel- en S. Mitchell, nutrition expert of a Battle Creck, Mich., sanitarium. On a diet of liver only, the rats devel- kidney inflammation, but were brought .back to health by a change Anemia was produced by feeding | jution-restored them to health. Perhaps the greatest beneficiaries of these exneriments are the babies of the hood’ result from improper feeding. As Dr. Mitchell has expressed it, “the vat in the Iaboratory cage has revealed the correct diet for the baby in the cradle.” A good many citizens with growing girths wouid iike to understand more about controlled inflation —Indianapolis News.
