BATTLING LEVINSKY
KSANOTHERBOUT
BY ROBERT W. MAXWELL.


ITHACA, N. Y, July 15.-Cornell
j thing Levinsky, who tackled Harry
Greb here last night, has his own
version of the willard-Dempsey con-
test.
says Levinsky. "He is much better
than l supposed, although he knock
ed me out last fall. / was not in good
condition at the time and everyone
knows it. and l thought a big, clever
man could take Jacks measure. How
ever, in his bout with willard he
showed me he could hit and also take
a punch. He will be champion for a
long time, and if he is licked it will
be by some light-heavyweight who
can hit.
Jack is a terrible slugger and
goes after his man from the opening
gong. He hands out a shower Of
punches which are hard for a big
man to bl )ck, and the result is that
Dempsey usually scores a Knockout
A big man is placed at a disadvant-
age because the whirlwind attack
sweeps him of hts feet. He never
has a chance to set himself before
delivering a blow. and therefore is
virtually harmless. A clever, hard
hitter who can sock from any angle

there is any other poor fellow-that
is, any fellow as poor as was Jack
at the time this country was at war
and who donated as much of his serv-
ices as did Jack-then the new cham
pion is willing to. be called a Stacker.
But when a man volunteers his serv-
ices for the benefit of the Red Cross
and succeeds in raising a S2O0,OO
fund through his efforts you could
hardly call him a Stacker. And all

with the champion. But he must be
able to take everything Dempsey has
for three rounds or he will get into
trouble.

Dempsey's wallops is to take them

Tom Crooke, while Torpedo Tubes,
under the leadership of Buck Sterzer.

But Griff figured the Griffs would

games of the series and overhaul the
Indians and pass them by. But GriT

Had he derricked Harper after that
second Canto he would have been able
to use him within a day or two, but
as matters stand, he kept him on the
firing line for six chapters. or long
enough to make it necessary for him
to have his complete rest before
