Dahlen dived through the hole In the

PUG LEATHAM
AMONG MISSING

After vainly searching the city for
George Leatham. the champion pugil-
ist of Nova Scotia. who recently sue
cumbed TO q knockout punch from
Paul Lewis, the colored boxer of Wind
sor, Jack Lester. OF Montreal,
Leatham's sparring partner. has come
to the conclusion that Leatham may
have made away. with himself.
Leatham was seen on the streets OF
Detroit for several days after his bout
xith Lewis. but was brokenhearted
over his defeat. The lins~ok CONVERSE
ton with which he was met was
naturally OF a type to increase his
chagrin, and people who saw him last
declare that he seemed fairly dement,
ed. The result Of the battle was doub-
iy disappointing TO Leatham. In view
Of the fact that he had but recently
laid claim to the title of champion of
CANADIAN honor entirely out OF
reach after the whipping by Lewis,
who Is also a Canadian. and whom
Leatham rated very cheaply.
"If George il still alive" says Les

I have backing to get him another
fight with Lewis, and I know | can
make him beat the dinge. I'm afraid
he's jumped into the river or else

case, he's crazy"
Any information regarding Leatham's
whereabouts will be gladly received
