NEW lesson FOR
BAT LEVINSKY
Barney Knew How To
Box, All Except Doing
the Dempsey Dive"

New York. Dec. Barney Lebro-
WITT knew practically all there was
to know about boxing until a few
weeks ago. Now he knows little
more
This Barney is commonly known to
the boxing fraternity at Bat Levin
sky, and until he faced Jack Demp-
sey in a Philadelphia ring he had
never had his shoulders on the canvas
In the third round he took the first
flop Of his career, and it was a solid
wallop propelled by Mr.. Dempsey that
taught the Bartler what ne uidn' [
know about boxing, namely, how to
do the dive.
From all accounts Bat outdid An
nette KeIlerman. He was clean gone
and out. and they counted ten over
him for the first time, whic was, 10
say the least humiliating TO the
Battler.
Levinsky. during his eight odd
years as a boxer. met all the good
ones at his weight as he progressed
He became a proficient boxer in every
respect He always ranked as one Of
the hardest men in his division TO hit,
and he could stand up to the best OF
them and hold his own over the ten
round route with ease.
But in Dempsey the Battler found
his master. just as every really good
man Dempsey has met during the past
year has done. Dempsey smothsred
Bat with an avalanche Of gloves, and
when he had his man confused and
trying to cover he put over the punch
that dropped him for the count.
Maybe some OF these days the few
critics who would likt to take some
thing away from Dempsey will be
forced to admit that he is the class
from the ground up. He represents
$50 odd pounds OF fighting ability,
and he has a style peculiarly his own
which makes him look like a dancing
question mark to every man he faces

Recruits Start with Speed.
The recruits began by scoring two
minutes after play began, Kirkpatrick
making a beautiful drop kick from the

the mark. Although the Recruits
nearly always realized gains Of from
10 TO 20 yards on forward passes, they
were nearly always held on line play
and failed to score from the time
Kirkpatrick opened the game in such
brilliant manner until the very end
OF the game, when Kirkpatrick was

The first quarter opened with for

took them TO the 80 yard line, where
Kirkpatrick performed his famous
field goal Following this the build

ball going over. The engineers lost
the oval on a tumble and the recruits
again gained on forward passes. The
builders were penalized for offside

opposition seven yard line, and
it looked as II they must score a

however, the engineers stiffened their
defence and the Recruits lost the ball.
Adopting the tactics Of their oppo-

yard gain on a forward pass, then lost
the ball by failing to make the neees-

it looked as II the Recruits would

In the third quarter the Recruits
