ton in himself that he thought serf-
ously of having another try at the Diff

AS youth, Lavigne developed his
muscles by loading salt on barges at
Saginaw, Mich. He first put on the
gloves with Tommy Ryan, then well
terweight champion, and liked the
game so well that he soon determined
to adopt it as a profession. In one Of
his first important bouts, that with
Andy Rowan at New Orleans, his op-
ponent was killed. Other early bouts
were with George Siddans, Lavigne's
first session with that iron fighter go

and the second to fifty-five with the
same result. In 1891 he whipped Joe
Soto in San Francisco, and then
cleaned up a number Of other light
weights, after which he whipped
Joe Walcott, the great negro welter-
weight, in two fierce battles. In 1896
Jack McAuliffe retired the undefeated
lightweight champion, and Lavigne
took the title. He went over to Lon
don and fought Dick Burgo, who was
then nearer a middleweight than a
lightweight, and whipped him Dissi-
patton and drink then got in their
work with Lavigne, and in 1893, at
Buffalo, he lost the decision to Frank
Erne. A little later the great French
Canadian was knocked out by George
McFadden, and his ring career was
over.

JACK RANDALL, FATHER
OF MIDDLEWEIGHTS

1t was not until about century ago
that bouts between the smaller pugi-
lists began to attract more than pass
ing attention. Until that time the
heavyweight championship was the
only one that was recognized, and
there were no other titles in pugilism.
The father Of the middleweight divi-
sion was Jack Randall, the original
"Nonpareil," and it was ninety-nine
years ago today. Dec. s, 1918, that he
fought the battle which won for him
the championship of the middle
weights That was when he beat his
most formidable rival, Ned Turner,
in "a rounds. This fight attracted one
of the largest assemblages ever gath
cred at boxing match in England
up to that time. Randall was a ma
tive of London, but of Irish descent
He was never defeated, and after re-
firing from the ring he opened the
famous sporting resort in Chancery
Lane, London, called 1.-The Hole in
the Walr-a place immortalized by
William Hazlitt, the great English
writer. Randall might have whipped
the heavyweights of his time, but
when he proposed such a match he
was laughed at, for in those days none
but big men were considered worthy
of the proud title of Champion of Eng
land.

Recent suggestions that certain of
the Scandinavian states may be drawn
into the war are of special interest to
the United States from a commercial
standpoint, as well as otherwise. A
compilation by The National City
Bank of New Y ork shows that our ex-
ports to those countries since the open
ing OF the war have averaged about
four times as much per annum as in
the years immediately preceding the
war, though on the import side there
is comparatively little change.
