service, and on March 18th is sched-
uled 20 meet Eddie Wimler. the hard
with whipping Joe Lynch, the New
York sensation. last week Patsy says
he VIII have few more battles under
his old guide, Jimmy Dime, and then
retire for all time.
Dillon Unsatisfactory.
The Harry Greb-Jack Dillon ten
round scrap at Toledo last week seems
10 have stirred up lot Of trouble in
the Ohio city. The mayOr-Cornell
Schreiber-Was sore about the match
and notified the promoters that un-
less they improved the class Of box
ing matches he would take the matter
In hand himself and conduct the
shows under the commission super
vision OF his own. From all reports
Greb fought at his best and did most
OF the work. but Dillon was able TO
take lot OF punishment and that is
about all he did. He is not the Jack
OF old and more the pity, for when
he was right there were few light
heavies or heavyw Fights who had
anything on him. Toledo seems %
have had an over supply Of matches
between old timers and now Il Is up
20 the promoters TO ge- young blood
into action and please the fans and
mayor, or quit the business There
are plenty Of good boxers about Ohio
and IL should not be a hard matter 10
get some first class matches. II they
cannot be had. why there are many
other cities to call on. for instance.
Milwaukee. Chicago. St Paul. Min
neapolis, Buffalo, PittsburE. Phila-
delphias not forgetting New York.
