gan, Jacks manager.
During the same year they
hooked up in another 10-round af-
fair, no decision being given.
The meal ticket kids met five
times in 1916, three of the affairs
being of the 10-round no-decisiOn
variety and two going to Britton
on decisions. These decisions
were vociferously objected to by
Manager Jimmie Johnson.
In 1917 they met four times
and both managers were busy de-
nying as each was credited with a
loss and two were without deci-
sions. In their last meeting Brit
ton lost his title.
With brotherly consideration
the brother act divided it's battles
evenly. Britton won three, Lewis
won three and six were no-deci-
sion affairs.
Another famous brother act OF
the ring was between George Chip
and Jack Dillon. Whether Chip
could ever have knocked out Dill

TITLE is
TAKEN BY INGLE

Smiling George Ingle and his
sledge-hammer right hand is the
new coast lightweight champion
today, and Muff Bronson, Port
lands best 133-pounder, is title
less as result of a bout in Seat
tie last night.
Referee Pat Scott gave the Sc
attic boy the verdict after he had
finished strong in the final round.
While Ingle's hard right found
it's mark on Bronson's face and
body in the closing session, the
Rose City boy figured that he was
given the worst of the verdict.
Muff believes that the champions
infighting and cleverness earned
him at least an even decision.
The bout, which was the final
event of an interesting bill, was
not any whirlwind affair, as
neither boy showed much Of an
inclination to mix. Bronson did
not show at his best, while Ingle's
wild swings made him look awk-
ward at times. Most of the fans
liked the decision, however, and
Ingle has already been matched
to defend his newly won honors in
the near future.

War Story is
Latest Drama
Of Mae Marsh

"Fields of Honor" a thrilling
photoplay from the story of sim
liar title which recently appeared
in the Saturday Evening Post, has
just been sent west by the Gold
wynn company, with Mae Marsh in
the leading role. 1t opened an en-
gagement at the Liberty theater
today.
1t is a story of the great war,
with a little French girl as the
central character. The girls trip
to America in search of better
things, her rebuffs and hardships,
ending with most happy climax,
furnish a story that is absorbing
until the very last picture is flash
ed on the screen.
Mae Marsh has a wonderful op-
portunity for displaying her dra
matte powers.

Foley in Tacoma Thursday, put up
such scrap with Wildcat"
Leonard that the latter hung out
distress signals in the second
round and the melee ended
abruptly.
Judge Flanagan, Portland box
ing promoter and manager, was
due to arrive in Tacoma today
with three of his crew of mitt-
sters. Flanagan was in Seattle last
night, where part of his company
performed at Salt & Austin's fistic
theater, and he planned to move
his headquarters here today in or
der to give his boys training here.
Flanagan, who isn't any more
of a judge than George Shanklin,
acquired the title because he
started practicing law in Portland
before he found the ring more
profitable. Those of his tribe
who he has brought to the North
west are AL Sommers, Muff Bron-
son and Fred Gilbert.
Sommers and Gilbert appear in
the Eagles show tomorrow night.
Bronson lost his lightweight crown
in Seattle last evening. He will
remain here to help his two COM
panions prepare for their scraps.

two Sans and Joe.
Sam Langford, Sam McVey and
Joe Jeanette were not so brotherly
as Dillon and Chip or Lewis and
Britton.
Occasionally they would forget
themselves and pull real, for
sure knockout. Ted and George
and the two Jacks never did any
thing like that. Once Joe Jeanette
went so far as to knock out McVey
in 40 rounds. Think of that.
The two Sans have fought no
less than IA times. Langford has
the edge, having won four, lost
two and engaged in four draws
and four no-decision fights.
Langford and jeanette have
fought Is times with Langford at
the long end with five wins, three
defeats, two draws and the rest
no-decision bouts.
McVey and Jeanette have sort
of fallen down on the job. They
have only fought five times, each
winning one and the others being
without decisions.

Ion or Dillon Chip will never be
known. Neither of them ever did
achieve a knockout against the
other and neither wanted to. Each
was too good meal ticket for the
other. When Chip began to get
hungry he would look up his man
ager, Jimmie Dime, and say, Jim
mic, l had to eat beef stew today,
better match me up with Dillon so
/ can have chicken" Then Dime
would write a ferocious letter to
promoter at Butte or Keokug
and tell how Chip wanted to get
even with Jack for biting his ear
in their last fight a week earlier.
The manager would advertise
"grudge fight and the nickels
would pour in. Jack and Chip
would both go on a chicken diet
until the next week.
This pair met 10 times, nine be-
ing no-decision romps and one a
draw.
But far and away beyond the
brother acts OF either of these
pairs was the triplet act of the

Ladies and gentlemen. The first
act on the program tonight will be
the famous brother act, starring
Jack Britton and Ted Kid Lewis.
That would be an excellent way
to introduce this pair when they
meet again. Ted and Jack, the
Hall Room Boys of the boxing
game, have met no less than II
times in the last three years and
the only thing which can prevent
them from meeting II more times
is Lewis fear that Jack may be
able to grab his welterweight
crown which he won from Jack
and which he prizes next to his
right eye.
1t was in March, 1915, when
this ubiquitous pair first hooked
up. This was before Britton de-
cided to claim the welterweight
and when Ted first
came under the management of
Jimmie Johnson. The records say
Ted won this bout. This Is vocif-
erously denied by Dumb Dan Nor
