Bonds of yigiluntes Threaten TO
Dynamite Italians for Ac-
ccptlng Out I'm Wages.

Kentwood, La, Feb. 2s.-Kent-
wood is today under guard of
. state troops to prevent threatened
violence against aliens. Self
; styled vigilantes have warned
scores of Italians to leave town
by the end OF this week If they
did not wish to be blown up with
dynamite. Frightened Italians
yesterday left so rapidly that the
Italian population of 200 was re-
duced by about half.
The complaint against these
foreigners was that they had ac-
. cepted cut in wages from s1.7b
to SIPS per day in the lumber
mills where most Of them work.
The Italian trouble here was
similar TO that which recently
occurred in other parts of the
state in which natives undertook
violently to drive cheap labor
away from lumber mills.

PAPKE AND KELLY
FIGHT TO A DRAW !

but Kelly might well have been declar-
ed the winner. In the fourth round
Papke landed a right uppercUt on the
jaw which sent Kelly 20 the floor for
a count OF eight. At this time, It looked
as though Papke were the winner. But
the way Kelly stalled out the rounC
and came back IN the next, fresh and
strong, gave his supporters a confidence
which was not MISPLACED
Kelly Comes Esck.
Kelly had > far recovered from this
knockdown in the sixth round that he
hammered Papke all over the ring and
got IN some steamy wauOps to Billy's
eyes, which caused these organs to be-
come much larger than usual. KeIIys
recovery was somewhat Of a surprise
after the hard blows he took in the
fourth, and the punishment ne admin
istered to Papke IN the sixth put the
contest upon such an even basis that
neither was able to gain decided lead
after that round.
Each man was prlmed for the contest,
was IN the ring TO Win, each fought a
clever and creditable battle. and was
going at top speed all the way At the
