WILLIE JACKSON
SAVED BY GONG

DA outDolnting Willie Jackson, the
L conqueror Of Johnny Dundee in j
15-round bout at New Haven. Conn,
Lew Tender. OF Philadelphia, proved
beyond question that he IS one Of the
leading eontenders for the lightweight
championship Of the world, now held
by Benny Leonard. He convinced the
crowd Of fans that he is far from be-
ing a flash in the pan, If any such no
uon still lurked in pugilistic circles
Tender earned the referees de-
cisiOn by the punishment he dOled
out in the closing rounds OF the
bout. Until the 18th round hon
OTIS were pretty even, but in the
18th, 18th and 18th the Phlladel-
nhiun earned a big edge. AT the
final hell Jackson WAS very tired
while Tender was comparatively
stiiI fresh and still strong, Dave
F'itHEeraId. the referee. could not
have done otherwise than award
the verdict to Tender
In the 18th round the bell saved
jackson from being knocked out
Early in that round Tender cut Jack
sons eve with a singing right hand
lab. He continued TO play for the
weakened optic, and just before the
bell had the eve almost closed II
was then that he measured Jackson
and drove a hard right 70 Willie's jaw.
The latter staggered against the
ropes in a dazed condition and seemed
TO be on the verge OF being knocked
out lust as the bell rang Tender
was closing in TO send over the big
one"
In snite Of the handicap which
his Duffed eye caused him to suf-
fer, Jackson fought EameIy
through the last two rounds, and
surprised the crowd by weather
ing the storm Of blows Tender
EhoWered him with. II was
good fight.
Prior to the bout there were some
who were skeptical about Tenders
ability 70 travel at top speed over a
distance, but he showed that he can
work almost as fast for is rounds as
he can in the siT-round bouts which
he is accustomed TO fight IN Philadel-

A FICTION WITH A PURPOSE.
lNeM York Timesl

A paper in one Long Island town
has printed, and a paper in nearby
town has reprinted, truly grisly
tale that deserves attention-,snd n
tention most of all from the Federal
authorities whose business it is to
hunt down German propagandists.
The story is to the effect that while
a gathering of women i'll country
house were hard ut work recently
making surgical dressing and like ar
ticles for the Red Cross. mysterious
stranger came 10 the door, and, on
some pretense of official authroity de-
mandcd that he be allowed to exam
inc the servants employed there.
Attire some hesitation that WAS per-
mittcd, the inquisition was suddenly
conducted and its sensational ending
came when the inquisitor snatched II
wig from the head of Il servant sup
posed to be woman and revealed u
German man! The remainder of tho
narrative told how this long and much
trusted servitor had been notably ac-
tive and useful in packing and dis
patching bundles to the Red Cross
and that the contents of every one
of them had been poisoned by him.
The tale is thrilling, but it has two
faults-therc was not one word of
truth in it and it has been told with
slight variations dozens and dozens
of times bfore, with the scene laid
in as many other places, and always
with no foundation in fact. Some
body had fooled the first of the Long
Island papers, and the second. which
for good measure had added what
the first left out-the name of the
family where the plot was, or rath-
er wasn't worked-had fallen into
the trap set for the gullible and the
credulous.
Why the thing was done is not
quite clear, but seemingly the pur-
pose was to excite among the rela-
tives of our soldiers the fear that, if
the soldiers are wounded abroad, hos
pital treatment will be fatal instead
of curative. The fact that whoever
believed the story would feel new
and bitterer hatred of Germans was
either no realized or was ignored by
the originator of the myth.
