Byrne and Mckay in Great Fistic Battle in +
 Scotland in 1927

It Is just ninety years ago today that Simon BSrne dsfeated ' Alexander Mckay in five rounds during bout near Glasgow. This was one of the most widely advertised bouts ever pulled of in Scotland and it attracted wide attention. Byrne was an Irish man who had made quite a reputation for himself in his fights in and around Glasgow and there was considerable local rivalry to win his laurels. The sports wanted a Scot to to do the work and so they picked Mckay for the 56b.5Da ss<~asFsT EsSssSGzsSsss
 Mckay put up as fine fight as anyone could have expected but he was able to stand up against the Irishman for only AZ minutes. As us- ual in those times, great sums were wagered on the fight while the m sn who did the work of giving and taking blows fought for the small sum of $z50 each Four years later, in 1891 Byrne fought F Jem Ward for the champfonships but was adefeated:

Coach Robertson of
 Penn to Enlist As
 Army Officer Soon

New York, May 3.-In the event of the University of Pennsylvania calling off all athletic activities and disband- ing it's teams, Lawson Robertson, the Penn track coach, will probably join the Pennsylvania contingent that is. training for service in Uncle Sam's army. Robertson said as much to a friend in Philadelphia yesterday when he was asked about his plans forthe future in case athletics became a dead issue at the Quaker college.
 Robertson is well qualified to take a commission in the army, and espe- cially- in the heavy artillery branch, in which he served two enlistments as member of the Thirteenth Coast Artillery of Brooklyn. He held the rank of sergeant when he took his discharge from the New York Ma tional Guard and could easily have risen to a commission had he pos-
 sessed ambition in that direction.
 Robertson has been assisting the military officers in drilling the Uni versity of Pennsylvania recruits at Franklin Field ever since the college fromed the military units which have been preparing for service under Ma jor Pickering.
