jac tenes tae rm ee As ESE y | Riou: ba Levinsky, Who Took Another Decision Over Dillon in Boston, Is the Best Defensive Boxer the Heavyweight Class Has Known in Many Years. ATTLING LEVINSKY took an- other decision over Jack Dillon in Boston last night, Dillon may be “killer” among giants, but he’s no “killer” when he steps into @ ring with the Morgan blond, Levin- sky is one of the most remarkable heavyweights of the decade, and if he bad a knockout punch he'd easily outrank al! the rest who are hoping for a match with Champion Jess Wil- lard. He js a splendid boxer—the dest defensive boxer the heavywelght class has known in many years, Box- ihg is “the art of self-defense” with Lavinsky. Such excellent judges of boxing as Mike Donovan and Dan Hickey say that he is the best de- fenaive boxer they have ever seen. Levinsky has fought hundreds of ring battles, and quite cheerfully meets the best heavyweights his man- ager can find to match him against. No referee tolls the ten count over the blond battler. Few toll the ten count over his opponents, but In nearly every fight Levinskr outpoints MMs man far enough to make him look exceedingly foolish. In this he is do- ng just what Packey McFarland used to do, and he deserves a great deal more credit than he has received, Dan Morgan tells a story about his first meeting with Levinsky. Dan has an office where he plans matohes and handles the business of his able” of fighters. One afternoon a flaxen |, smooth faced fellow camo in to see Morgan. “Mister Morgan,” he sald, “I'd like to have you manage me. I have been ting a little, but I don’t know whether I'm any good or not. If you'll make some matches for me and | p, tyy_me out Til try to make good. fever mind paying me anything un- | ¢ make good you can r Yeas I do.

He has no use for a fighter who thinks of the money first ae the boxing afterward as a side ue. Morgan has never been sorry that he took charge of Levinsky's for- tunes. The Battler “made good” at ‘and has been making good ever since. He can box once or twice a week. When there is a slim house he says to Dan: “I don't think they can pay us the thousand to-night, but you get what you can and I'll figat anyway.” Sometimes he has gone through hard bouts for practicaily nothing, for he doesn't worry over the possibility of losing, and prefers fighting to lying Idle, As 4 result tre Battler has fought oftener and has made more money in the ring during the last year than any other heavy- weight in the Rarlekee A ae is alwa: jar Agying, and his nonularity has grown ea LL &@ COCHRANE, Dublierend teltest WHITE LABEL ‘Tie Scorch of OneatAca Emphasize the name BURKE'S when ordering ® IN THe NURSERY SHOWS A NATURAL INCLINATION ‘To KNOCK Thinas OVER THE EVENING WORLD, WEDNESDAY, OCTO BER 25, 1916. _ BEST SPORTING PAGE IN NEW YORK | THE PROGRESS OF A FOOTBALL HERO Copyright, 1916. by The Press Publishing Co, (The New York Evening World.) Ear steadily. The only place where ne is unpopular ta among the other and digger heavyweights who know he can easily outbox and outfight them, These give him a wide berth, OB MOHA objects to Dillon's taking a match with Mike Gib- bons. “He has picked out little Mike,” says Moha, “while there are three offers waiting for him if he will fight m T'll_ go out to see him fight Gibbo and the winner will have to either fight me or admit that fraid. I've found it hard enough fraid the big fellows won't be able to see me at all.

By William Abbott. ORNELL has the edge on Har- vard in kicking, physical strength and greater potential possibilities. The Crimson undoubt- edly knows more football, an advan- tage which should show Itself In superior team work, Still, both elevens appear so evenly matched that the duttle at Cambridge Saturday will probably be decided by “the breaks of the game." Cornell men, while not overconfi- dent, believe that if their team comes together well early in the game Har- vard will be compelled to do @ spell of football mourning. Up in Ithaca there was hope that their Big Red team would wallop Bucknell last Saturday by a big score, Instead only 19 points were scored, a showing which put a damper on Cor- nell enthustasm, Couch Al Sharpe frankly admitted that the players lacked sufficient rest; that they were stale from too much driving in prac- tice, The coach said the setback was only temporary; that the players would bo as fit as the traditional fiddle for the Harvard battle, Cor- nell supporters are hoping this will be the case, .
