, son down. was Dillon's first heavy
weight opponent back in 1914. The
venerable battIer managed to endure
the ten rounds. Jack Lester, the coast
heavyweight who was coming along in
fine style, was next I'm line. and Dillon
flattened him in ten rounds Then Al
Norton, another 210 DOunder, barely
stuck the limit
Knocked Out Weinert.
Dillons most notable achievement
against heavyweights was his showing
against Charley Weinert (who is not
afraid to challenge Willard) in Phila-
delphia in November. 1914 Dillon bat
tered Weinert into submission in two
rounds scoring a clean knockout. This
was shortly after Weinert had out
pointed big Jim Coffey. who scales over
200 pounds.
The victory over Weinert entbused
Jack to such an extent that he prompt
" offered to knock out Coffey inside
Of six rounds. Coffey made answer.
but it was to the effect that he coin
cided with DillOn's views, and frankly
admitted that he did not think he
could last six rounds with the hard
punching Dillon. Coffey always was a
Straightforward lad.
Two Big Ones Dropped,
Then came billions battles against
Andre Anderson and Tom Cowler, tow
ering heavyweights. Each outweighed
Dillon more than 80 pounds. and stood
over him almost a foot, but diminutfve
Jack took AndersOns measure in five
rounds, and knocked Cowler senseless
in two rounds.
Frank Moran-the very same who
fought Jess Willard recently-saw Dill
lon in action against Cowler. and he
was much impressed. So much so. in
fact. that he has stricken Mr. Dillon's
name off his calling list, for the time
being, at least.
Cowler outboxed Dillon in that first
round, and Moran remarked to by
ISLANDERS that he could not see why
Dillon should be Fostering him with
challenges. Early in the second round
Dillon jumped a foot into the air and
dashed long right to Cowlers chin.
The Cumberland man mountain stiff
fened and dropped as il fallen bv an
AK. He was "out" fully five minutes.
Moran has yet TO make any commen-
tary on that punch Undoubtedly he
has thought good deal about the
matter.
Several clubs are in the field for a
Dillon Moran match. It is the best
heavyweight card in sight for a year.
in view of the fact that Willard will
not be ready to enter the ring again
much before that time. Dillon is will
ing that Moran make his own terms.
Just so long as Frank consents to gel
into the same ring with the untamed
slugger from Indianapolis.

TEXAS MILITIA MAY FILL
VACANT POINTS ON BORDER

San Antonio, April 20. - General
Funston is sending to General Perish
ing more than 1000 additional troops
and there is reason to believe that
even more will be placed at the dis
posal of General Pershing if the CAM
paign against Francisco Villa is con-
tinued. The troops which have been
ordered to Pershings base at Column
bus, are now on duty along the border.
What troops will relieve them and
where they will come from remained
unannounced. It may be that the war
department will have to authorize the
sending of the few remaining troops
in the United States into this depart
ment, or it may be that the filling OF
the vacant points along the border
may be left to the Texas militia.

Major General Scott Goes to Border

Decision on Withdrawal.

Washington, April 81. - Dispatches
from the border to the state depart
ment contained no word of develop
ments changing the Mexican situation,
except that the reports from Chihua-
hua told Of the movement of Carranza
troops from that section toward Par
raj. No explanation was given. 1t
was pointed out here, however, that
these forces were under the direct
command of General Gutierrez. whose
friendliness to the Americans has
been consistent.
No decision as to withdrawal Of
American troops from Mexico is ex-
pected for week or ten days, unless
there are new outbreaks to compel
immediate action.
This was made clear when Secre-
tary Baker dispatched Major General
Hugh L. Scott, chief Of staff, to the
border as his personal representative
to make complete report on the mil
itary problems confronting General
Funston.
