ST. PAUL, Mimi, Nov. lin one
of the greatest bouts ever staged in
this part of the country, Mike Glib
bons. ST. Paul, handed Jack Dillon,
indianapolis, a neat little trimming.
From the very first tap OF the gong
until the last, Gibbons demonstrated
that he was a past master of the
fade-away boxing. He would rush in.
hand the Indianapolis bear cat a
series of punches and then fade away
before Dillon could get his heavy
artillery in action.
In the first round the men met and
like a shot from the clear sky Glib
bons landed right to the face.
Dillon looked surprised and started
his boring in methods, but to no use.
Gibbons would not stay in one place
long enough for the giant killer to
get solid smash at him.
In the second round Dillon came
up looking ra-aer dismayed. Dillon,
in this round tried mighty hard to
land his famous knockout blow, BIZ
Gibbons made lis attempts look so
foolish that even the grim Dillon was
forced to smile.
In the third round Dillon seemed
inclined to hang on and clinch. Glib
bons in this round met the giant
killer at his own style of boring in.
They mixed in the center of the ring.
Gibbons having all the advantage OF
the mitigating.
In the fourth. fifth, sixth, seventh
and eighth, Gibbons did all the lead
ing. Dillon would stand in the middle
of the ring and make Gibbons come
to him. At the end of the eighth
round Dillon's face was badly pulled
and Gibbons to this time had not
stopped a real hard blow, all Dillon's
attempts going wild.
In the ninth Dillon started rushing
things, but Gibbons met his rush IS
and out fought him. This was the
hardest fought round of the bout and
was about even. The tenth round
started off with a bang, both men try
ing for a knockout. In this round
Gibbons got careless and Dillon can. e
near putting ove,' Knockout.
The men were fighting in neutral
corner, Gibbons turned to get out and
while his back was turned, Dillon
landed several hard cracks to the
face. Gibbons fought his way out.
This was the first and only round of
the fight that went to Dillon.

Harvard Princeton Game

gent. Princeton is being given more
than the customary look-in against
mighty John Harvard. The CRIMSON
is being made the favorite largely Pc
cause of Percy Haughton. The team
which bowed before Tufts has peeh
coming fast.
Going back into scores and COM
parsons, there is little to give eitner
team, unless one leans to Harvard pc
cause of the tried and proven coacn-
ing methods of Haughton. And tnis
is offset by the fact that Princeton
was able to put over a victory on
Tufts. whereas that little school not
only sent Harvard tumbling early III
tbe season. but scored full sized
touchdown.
"Big Three" football games have a
habit of upsetting the dope Duchet
and sr,earing the contents all over
the place. But this is at least one
time when there is very little dope 10
spread around.
Yale Has Strong Opponent.
Tn the excitement attending the
first clash between two or the Dig
Three the football public has almost
overlooked the fact that at New
Haven, Yale is scheduled for anotner
of it's hard games when Browns pow
erful eleven makes it's appearance al
the Yale bowl Brown, always strong
looms this year as the one team llKe-
ly to do things to Yale's great record.
Dartmouth, humbled by botn
Georgetown and Princeton, IS scneo-
uied against Pennsylvania, but tne
outcome of this contest has only
minor significance.
At Ithica the biggest itnersectionai
conflict of the year will be pulled OH
when Michigan meets Cornell. the
New Workers have displayed consider,
able uneasiness over this conflict ana
at hest Michigan is given as mucn
chance as the eastern team.

sun beaming in spite Of it and frosty
chill in the air that made overcoatS

a double dose Of mixed weather early
today as this town awaited the begin

tween Harvard and Princeton.
Approximately five thousand per-

those offered had prices on them that
put the world series in the shade.
Much Betting on Game.
Buoyed by the knowledge that not
once has the Tiger goal line felt the
weight of an alien foot this year, and
by the more important fact that
Princeton is represented by the best
team to inhabit Old Nassau in years,
Princeton students and alumni are
covering bets with reckless abandon.

do not believe that there was
ever a president who has had as
many big questions to decide as Pres.
Wilson, His decisions haven't always
pleased me, just as l suppose they
haven't always pleased other people,
but when you look over the record it
is so good that criticism comes close
to being nothing more than cheap
fauIt-finding. A fool or a coward
would have had the U. S. in all sorts
of trouble. AS it is, we are at peace,
the country never was more prosper
GUS, and we have the strength that
comes with honor and integrity of
purpose. Wilson has woE -.ictories
by diplomacy that are far more I'M
portant to mankind than any Victo-
ries that we could have won by war.

am going to vote for Pres. Wilson
because he has such a splendid con-
ceptiOn of democracy.
His intelligence and bravery in the
complex crisis of the past four years
has inspired a renaissance of Amer
icanism as interpreted and lived by

He has freed more slaves than Lin

Just for the sake of change.
BY JOHN REED
Famous American Author and War
Correspondent
I am for Wilson because, in the
most difficult situation any Ameri-
can president since Lincoln has had
to face, he has dared to stand for the
rights of weak nations-in refusing
to invade Mexico he has Unf1inching-
ly advocated the settlement of inter
national disputes by peaceful means
and has acted upon it to the best
of his ability in the cases of Germany
and England; he has publicly OPP
posed the doctrine of militarism, and,
in the case of Mexico, has warned the
American people against sinister in
f1Uences" at work to plunge them
into war; and in this dark day for
liberalism in the U. S., has declared
himself a liberal, and proved it by
the nomination of Louis D. Brandeis
and John H. Clarke to the supreme
court, by forcing the enactment of
the Clayton bill, the child labor bill
and the workmen's compensation
act and by the labor planks in the
St. Louis platform.
am for Wilson chiefly because
the Republican party igureheads
are: Charles Evans Hughes, a sin
cere middle-class reformer, and as
such perhaps the greatest danger to
fundamental American democracy
in our time; William Howard Taft,
the known representative Of blind re-
action in this country; Theodore
Roosevelt, the arch-disciple of Prof.
Bernhard, believer in war for its own
sake, the leader of the munitions
makers party, and traitor to the
people; Elihu Root, once defender of
Boss Tweed, and ever since defender
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1916-09-21

Of conquest is horrible and unthink-
able.
Wilson has now had about four
years of experience and l think he
has earned faith and trust. I do not
think it logical or sensible to change
to an inexperienced or untTied man
just for the sake of change.
