NAVAL MILITIA

along lines similar to the national

at Brisbane and then won his famous
battle with Papke at the local stadium.
The local critics gave Smith the fight on
points up to the time of the foul, but it
is a question whether he would have
gone through the twenty rounds so sue
cessfully. Smith has been after Papke
for contest at the middleweight limit,
as they fought at 16o pounds before, but
it is very doubtful whether Dave can
scale 1JS pounds. 1t is a good bet he
cannot. He takes excellent care of him

wants to visit the United States and then
