Health Commissioner Emerson points
out that. horse meat is cheaper than

Arguments. from various sources,
against horse meat as food for human

Dillon Takes Lacing
From Bat Levinsky

Baltimore, Nd, July 14.-After much
delay, and a delay which for time
seemed to indicate that no fight would
be staged, Jack Dillon and Battling
Levinksy finally found their way into
the ring in the Oriolc Baseball Park
here late yesterday, and in the ten
round battle that followed the few
followers of the game present were
treated to a surprise, for Levinksy,
former Philadelphian, now of New
York and Connecticut, handed the
Hoosier kill m~quick, 'conqueror of
Moran and other aspiring heavies, a
severe lacing. Dillon was outboxed,
outfought and outgeneraled by the
clever Levinlksy. Fourteen women
were among those who witnessed the
bout.
The contest was scheduled to go ff-
teen rounds with a referees decision.
Instead it was a ten-round .decisionless
bout. When it came time for the
combatants to 20 on and mix it for the
light heavyweight crown there was but
$4,000 in the park. and as the fighters
were to receive $500 $4,000 to Dill
bon and the remaining $4,000 to Le-
Whisky, they refused to battle unless
their guarantee was met.

with Parsons taking the duty for Har-
risburg. Blair's boys started after
Walker and had no trouble in piling
up a good lead in the early innings
Then Jupiter Pluvius got awake and
spoiled the chances for another vic
tory.

five good games can be expected in

teams except Duncannon and Marys-
