is as tickled as schoolboy with his
new split-second mepiece which, by
the way, is the best that money could
buy, Toastmaster McManus tells me.
Mayor Haussl' ng, who ms SITS on hav-
ing his Saturday nights for himself,
said he was pleased to break this rule
in order to be present at the celebra-
ton. Mayor Haussl ng knows Kram-
er very well-knows of his clean life

Those who attended the dinner were
happy; those who were unable to be
there We're sorry. 1t was a tribute
to an athlete of which this commu-
, nifty may well feel proud. Kramer is
an example for young men to emu

clean-lived life. Every speaker at
the banquet referred to the champion
as a man among men. 1t was not all

The menu card at the Kramer din

the words: Testimonial dinner to

page appeared the menu, and opposite
/ the menu was an exceptionally
tograph set in on warm gray mount.
The back cover contained the names
of the dinner committee, the toast
master and the principal speakers.
These menus proved very popular and
were highly priced as souvenirs, and
Edwin G.. Koenig, member of the
committee, has informed me that II

the drop of the hat. If he does the
bout will be bear" for Lewis is the
aggressive kid. In fact. Banty Is al
ways fighting and Mahon will have
% keep on his toes to stop his rushes
md his leads.
@
The way the boys size up, the fight
tonight should not be very far from
an even thing. AS far as betting goes,
It should be even money and take
your pick. Mahon has said that he
has hundreds to bet and that he would
wager his end of the purse on his
chances. Back of Lewis there has
always been plenty of money, and
some big checks may be put up on
the mill before hostilities get I'M
Ger way. From what 1 have seen of
both boys I would fancy Mahon as
the winner, but if Irish doesn't tame
the speedy Lewis with some of his
temper blows, he may find himself a
loser ION points" Mahon, to win,
must give cattle all the way He can
not afford to "lay up and wait" until
Lewis gets tired. Banty, for one
thing, doesn't tire very much, and for
another thing he is a pretty foxy
young gentleman when he finds him
self getting slow. The opinion
"around the corners" is divided with
Mahon having a slight call. The boys
will likely box ten rounds, with per-
haps a dispute as to the winner when
1t is all over

BUILDING TIEUP OVER

The building trade tieup is over.
After a ten-week contest the brick
makers have signed fiye-year con-
tract, granting one cent an hour in
crease to all men receiving less than
40 cents an hour.
This agreement was offered by the
bosses three weeks ago and rejected
by the men. Pressure was brought to
bear upon the strikers by the Build
ing Trades Council, which insisted
upon peace at any cost.
Work will be resumed at once. Be-
sides $500 men on strike, 10000
workers in building trades, who have
been idle for months, will benefit.

Chicago Federation Of Labor, the

War has refused permit for it and
Congressman Mann decided to let his

Are the people going to stand for this
