Whlrlwlnd Bout

Karl Rroesing and Earl Drumm were tho next up and this bout was a whirlwind Drumm proved shifty on his feet and every time Kreslng swung. ducked under the blows. Tn the first round there was a swift interchange of blows, Kroesing draw ing blood from Drdmm with straight left to the face. In the second round Drumm ran into a fast and hard one and went to the mat He was mp at once and continued to duck under the rushes of Kroeslng He recovered before the end of the round and rushed Kroessing against the ropes almost putting him clear through. He continued to rush his opponent and rocked him with a swift interchange of stright right and left blows to the face. In the third round KroesIng was against the ropes twice and was once knocked from his feet with a clean left uD- percut. Kroesing began to swing but was unable to connect as Drumm was too shifty on his feet while the latter landed straight blows to the face and upper cuts. almost at will Kroesing was an in and the bout was stopped by tho referee a half minute before the end of the round. The decision was given to Drumm
 The last bout of the evening was the cream of the show. Hollywood, of Perseverance. 16O pounds, had been matched with Higley of Tread well. but the latter was unable to come across, Kennard of the A. B.'s 140 pounds. volunteered to sub stitute. and did SO very ably. He won the decision on superior science and head work. Hollywood is a heavyweight and was in excellent trim while Kennard has not been in training. However he is tough and is an old hand at the game. He was able to evade most of Holly woods rushes. and although the lat ter cornered him several times, he was always able to get out of the tight places. Kennard was able to land on Hollywood almost at will but was not heavy enough to iar him much. Some pretty stiff ipnghSing developed in the third round of this battle. and both men appeared toa be landing frequently Kennard, how ever. was able to stop an of Holly woods rushes with straight blows to the face and was given the decis- ion.

Just 11' seconds after the start of the second round, when the fight was fast and the fans were settling themselves for another round and half of real fighting Pleas fell in one of the corners, and in the excitement of battle. Robinson fouled him.

THAT EAST END
CULVERT AGAIN
Presehersville Correspondent An.
swers County Road Engineer
Rifles Recent Card
Preachersville. Dec. 4.

In the l. j. of Oct. "a, the County
Road Engineer, Mckee Rife takes
exceptions to statements which APP
peared in our correspondence from
this place which had been published
a few days previously. had, as will
be remembered, written an item con-
corning the finding of a 275-pound
hog where it had fallen into a hole
at the end of a culvert, where the
water had washed out quite a sink
hole three feet wide and three feet
deep. And further that the hog had
subsisted on the bark off of sycamore
roots in this narrow prison for six
weeks, that when lost it was a nice
fat hog, fat enough to butcher, when
found it was a mere shadow, etc,
etc. Also knowing the condition of
some other culverts in the East End,
scattered over a considerable terri
tory, to be dangercnc to travel and
in some instances other culverts were
"blind" to all intents and purposes,
we sought to drive home a moral that
our county road officials would do
well to employ a common horse drawn
vehicle when attempting to inspect
our rough East End roads, which are,
as everyone knows, who has occasion
to travel over them, very rapid
ly going down, deteriorating with ev-
cry rain in summer, every freeze and
succeeding thaw in winter, and that
insufficient ditching and lack of suf-
ficient drainage with metal for. sur
facing either poor in quality, defici-
ent in quantity, improperly placed or
lacking altogether, has put our pixies
in a class with the better class Of
dirt roads.
When the |. J. makeup man placed
the caption over our article, "Some
Pig Tale, This" with the sub-head,
Fat Hog Falls Thro' Culvert," he
little thought that the sub-head con-
veyed an impression not given by the
reading of the original manuscript,
which was in truth neither brickbat
nor boquet, nor was it intended as
such by the writer. But il certainly
was a pleasure the way Mr.. Rife
"came back" in response to the ar
ticle showing plainly that he is
awake to the responsibility which at
taches to the Office which he fills. and
that unquestionably he is the right
mar r. the right place. IL he consid-
eree 1snself hit by the slugs from

flow is cutting across the pike just
over the culvert and few more rains
will expose to view the culvert It's
entire length. Vehicles chug in and
lumber cr' and two vehicles cannot
pass each other at this exact point
one must pull up and let the other
cross first. People on foot are put to
their wits to dodge n single vehicle
when passing this place. II is giving
more trouble than would be supposed
in this respect as IL is so near the

and the digging and ditching in front
of his gates?
When Mr.. Rife tells of the condi-
ton of culverts along the property,
where Mr.. Blankenship lives he should
have explicitly stated which Mr.. Blan-
kenship TO whom he referred for the
reading public at once came to the
conclusion that il was yours truly
who had been so remiss in the duty of
all good citizens in the care and use
of our public highways. A large circle
of friends scattered wherever the
|. j. circulates, and that is every
where, now regard us in the light of
public malefactor. There are about
round dozen of the clan Biankenship
who bear the title of Mr.. before
their names and one should be care
full to give. the given name, initials,
or else their personal identity is rem
dered somewhat obscure. We would
like to state that we do not own or
operate any land on or near to the
Preachersville and Stanford pike /;
glad we don't, if we did our egress
and ingress would be too difficult At
closest point our holdings were two
farms away from this pike the past
, season.
Mr.. w. c. Blankenship, not the
writer mind you, when questioned
about the culvert in front of his
house, stated that during the winter
the metal culveIt would carry all the
rainfall and melting snow adequately
but that during the spring and sum-
mer with their heavy downpours the
culvert could not begin to handle the
water tributary to this spring branch
with its considerable territory of
drainage. AS a result the pike often
overflowed at such times. He states
that he has stood on the pike above
this metal tube and hooked out trash
and drift to keep the opening from
being Slogged up. The consensus Of
opinion amongst our older citizens is
that the metal tube is not much of a
culyert, rather too much like tin
whistle and not at all as adequate as
the old rock culvert which the metal
tube displaced. At the present high
prices on galvanized wash tubs one
might consider man "leetle off, or
else well supplied with the "rocks"
who was SO reckless as to put a tub
over the end of a culvert. To check
such wanton wastefulness, such ireck-
, less extravaganza, we suggest fine
Of one cent and the costs as a remedy.
This streak of cussedness establishes
a bad precedent. Old adage hath il,
"Eyery tub shall stand on its own
bottom" This cannot be construed in
any way to mean a stopper for cul-
verts.
The nearby culvert which Rife
thought was the one mentioned by
US as dangerous" is not the one we
