Dan Gibbons, manager of Jimmy
McVeigh, comes through with letter
this morning that just about hits the
mark. He says, in part:
81 would like to know what kind
of lightweights they have in Chicago.
They fail to impress me as boys who
like to be kept busy. Challenges are
thrown broadcast to 133-pound boys
by the local pugs, and 1 have been
kept busy accepting defies. But 1
have come to the conclusion that they
are playing the press.
Jimmie Walsh, who styles himself
Canadian lightweight champion,
claims to be eager to meet any boy
in the world at the weight. 1 have
accepted his challenge and several
others from so-called champions, and
that seems to be the end of it.
81 honestly want matches for
McVeigh with any 133-pounder in the
world, and will arrange the purse on
any percentage basis or winner take
all. We are here to fight, and not to
fracture flock of typewriters writing
challenges and boosts.
Ambitious managers can have all
the fights they want. They may COM
municate with me through The Day
Book or at 948 w. Madison street."
Gibbons criticism goes not only
for the lightweight division, but every
other class at the present time.

Ho,U to Buy,
Prepare And
Cook a Fish
BY CAROLINE COE.

Almost all fish are best directly
after taken from the water. The
more delicate the fish the poorer its
keeping qualities. White fish bear
transportation poorly. Cod fish loses
its delicate flavor if packed in ice
and transported over the country.
Rich fish. like salmon and haflbut,
have much better keeping qualities
than the lighter kind.
Fresh fish is firm, eyes full and
rather bright, and the odOr. while it
is always fishy, will not be disagree
able. An ordinary fish, freshly
caught and cooked. will far surpass
in flavor and wholesomeness a fish
of rarer kind that has been kept for
days or weeks packed in ice.
TO PREPARE FISH FOR COOKING.
Wipe fish inside and out with cloth
rung out of cold water. Remove any
scales that may have been overlooked
at the market by drawing knife over
fish, beginning at tail and working
toward head. Incline knife towards
vow TO prevent scales from flying.
Small fish are usually served with
head and tail on.
To bone a fish begin at the tail,
run a sharp knife close to the back
bone and with knife follow the bone
its entire length, thus removing half
the fish from the bones. Turn and
remove flesh from the other side.
pick out any small bones that re-
main after removing backbone.
