THINKS DEMPSEY

IN FIVE ROUNDS
Wizards Sparring Partner
Predicts Challenger's De-
feat on July 4

Toledo, June 2S.-Victory for Jess
Willard with a knockout within five
rounds in his heavyweight champion
ship contest with Jack Dempsey here
July 4, was the prediction to-day of
Walter Monahan, chief sparring
partner for the champion.
Monahan based his prediction on
his close knowledge of Willard's
physical condition, gained through
several years of work with him. 1t
was Monahan who conditioned Will
lard for his match with Jack John
son at Havana.
Monahan asserted the muscles pro-
tecting Willard's stomach are like
rods of iron and that Dempsey will
not be able to hurt him with stomach
punches.
at is my honest opinion Dempsey
will wear himself out with his DASH
ing attack within three rounds. "
said Monohan.
Then he will be ready for what
ever Willard wants to hand him.
Dempsey will not be able to avoid
willard's right hand uppercut and
IL Jess connects solidly, a knockout
surely will result"

No information had been given re-
garding the duties of Pioneer Infantry
and Regiment, after its arrival at
Camp Dix, was trained as an infantry
regiment, but it was learned that the
duties of this branch ofthe service
were similar to those of the Pioneer
Infantry of the British army. viz, en-
gineer duty with competent service
when required.
On February 27, 1918, the formal
designation, "59th Pioneer Infantry,
was conferred upon the command the
strength of the regiment being 80 Off
GERS and 1868 enlisted men.
On March 16, 1918, troops from com
pany B, 307th Machine Gun Battalion.
a unit of the 18th Division comprising
men from Delaware, were transferred
to the regiment, and on April follow
ing two hundred ninety-three (293) re-
cruits from Delaware arrived at Camp
Dix and were assigned to the regiment,
the idea apparently being to constitute
the regiment as far as possible a Del
aware unit.
1t was found, however, that recruits
from Delaware were not coming in as
rapidly as was necessary and a num-
ber of recruits from other States, prin-
cipally from New York and New Jer-
sey, were supplied to bring the regi-
ment up to war strength. Six hundred
nine 5000 recruits were received on
April &C. 1913, and on July "a, 1918,
orders were received 10 fiji the regi-
ment to war strength from the July
draft. Pursuant to this, onAAugust 6, {
1913 thirteen hundred nine Q3O9) re-
cruits were received from the 153rd
Depot Brigade, and on the 9th of Aug
ust orders were received to complen I
full strength at the earliest possible .
date.
During the stay of the regiment at
Camp Dix, N. j., Major General Hugh /
L. Scott was in command of the S7th t
Division and afterward became camp
commander at Camp Dix.

FIRE IN sEAFORD Gas PLANT

Fire was discovered in the plant of
the Sussex Gas Company, West Sea-
ford, on Thursday. The fire started
when the blower back-fired and in a
moments time the whole interior of
the plant was in flames. Before the
firemen reached the scene the fire had
gained considerable headway, but was
soon under control and extinguished
within an hour or so. y
The plant furnishes gas for Laurel,
Bridgeville, Delmar and Seaford, and
the majority of the people of these
towns depend solely upon this supply
for their summer cooking. With the
aid of an emergency engine the com
pany was still able to supply Seaford
but was forced to shut off the gas from
the other towns temporarily.
The exact damage done to the plant
IS not yet known, but it is estimated
at about $1,000.

on April q, 1918, the regiment paraded
IN Philadelphia, with other trOops. in
the demonstration for the Third Iiber-
ty Loan. The regiment was never part
OF the 18th Division but remained AT
camp DIX as an independent unit, des-
lgnated for use as army troops after
the formation of field armies.
The commanding officer was notified
on May z, 1918, that the regiment
would proceed overseas, the notice be-
ing preliminary, as immediate move
ment was not ordered. During all this
time it was necessary to observe great
secrecy regarding movement of troops
and regarding certain items of train
ing, owing to the system of espionage
winch the enemy was known to have
IN all parts of the United States.
