before II Is planned so to speak. The
''knockout knack," as it may best be
termed comes with such a style as
spontaneously as wheels with "A
wagon.
The style Is neither scientific In a
studied sense nor is 1t wholly crude
and chance-taking, either; though the
relentiessness OF its attack creates
natural openings for intuitives and
naturally driven blows that contain
the knockout sting. As Dempsey him
self said when asked to explain MS
remarkable ability: Il haven't any
regular system for getting the other
fellow. I Just send them in as often
and as hard as l can until something
drops. Then 1 know i've got over the
old X. o."

Jack Dempsey. therefore. considered
in the light Of his thrilling ring deeds,
is unparalleled in the annals OF
challengers for the worlds heavy
weight championship. He may or may
not be a greater fighter than some OF
the champions and near champions
of by-gone days. But his record, our
only criterion, seems to argue that
he is. Dempsey has been called a
little man. but this Is only In COM

Hes q big Terry McGoyern!" How
often have we heard that glorifying
phrase applied to some big fellow who
has created a sensation by victories
gained In a slam bang style of nsht-
ing.
II Is a custom Of the ring sharps
to characterize about every oruiser
who isn't a Jim Corbett or a Kid
Mccoy in the matter of ring general
ship big Terry McGovern." But
In reality the term has been very
grossly misused-as well as abused.
There never was a big Terry Nc
Govern"-as / know that dauntless
little fighting machine-until the pre-
sent Jack Dempsey. who faces Willard
On the Fourth of July at Toledo, ar
rived, pugilistically speaking. But
that Jack Dempsey may rightfully
enjoy the -appellation Is not to be
disputed He is the long looked for
big Terry McGovern." His record.
punctuated with fourteen knockouts
in twenty-six engagements since his
efeat by the veteran Jim Flynn in
elI. Is even more impressive than
ythat Of the once wonderful little king
Of the ring now passed away.
Ideal Fighting Champ.
People have been looking for the
Dig Terry McGovern'' for a long
while. That such a combination OF
diabolical fighting fury. terrific punch
ing and reckless disregard of op-
ponents' blows in a heavyweight
would win the championship has al
ways been contended.
Several times We thought he had
appeared with all of the McGovern
trappings.
Tom Sharkey and Kid Carter, back
in the olden days. were perhaps the
nearest to approach a heftier edition
of McGovern- Both worked in a slam
bang fashion and their wild wallops
were knockouts when they landed.
Stanley Ketchel and Billy Papke in
fused considerable of the McGovern
fervor into their technique and their
hitting was tremendous.
AL Palzer's knock-down and drag-out
style was something of a reminder
Terry on an enlarged scale but he
: too unshilIed. although a heavy

eavy with his determined rushing
Ind snappy hitting is a better speci-

as II Gunboat Smith, who had ac-
, Quired the habit of stretching his
opponents with his swishing "oc-
cipitaf' clout behind the ear. would
become the McGovern of his class.
He employed Il devil-may-care atti-
tude in the ring and his one thought
was to drop the other fellow, which
he usually did. However eventually
he ran afoul of one of Sam Lang
ford crushers and his decline there
after was rapid.
Knockout Knack.
But all of these boxers. although
possessing some elements of that
hitherto mythical big Terry Nc
Govern" seemed to have lacked what
Jack Dempsey possesses in the amaz-
ing degree that Terry exhibited when
In action against his foes. That is
the Knockout knack for quick finishes
which is the inevitable production OF
a natural born fighter with a natural

We Must Expect Recurrence of Flu
Endemic

Dr. A. D. Mcdaniel, who attended
the state medical meeting at Grand
Forks last week, staes that DR.. Evans,
the great Chicago physician, was there
and gave an interesting talk on the
flu epidemic. DR.. Evans says that
epidemics for thousands of years have
visited the earth in waves, APP
pearing in periods Of 20 or rs years.
Doctors have battled successfully with
epidemics affecting the bowels, but
have not been so successful with those
affecting the respiratory organs, such
as the flu. DR.. Evans says that we
may expect recurrence of this ep-
idemic the coming winter and says
that all should be prepared for it by
taking an incubation. This inoc-
ulation has been perfected so it can
now be given with one injection. Re-
suit shows that the incubation has
proved very effective.

'The Wildcat" Praises Napoleon
LaFleur.

"The Wildcat official publication
of The Eighty-frst Division in France,
has this to say of Minot's "Pap" La
Fleur, member of the Minot Council
No. 1850, Knights of Columbus, now
serving in France as a X. of c.. Secre-
tary:
Hats off to MAP" LaFleur. who
managed the Knights of Columbus &C.
tivities in the Eighty-frst division.
The boys at division headquarters who
have had an opportunity to know him
through personal association, are
agreed that he is "some guy" On the
go from morning to night, very late
at night sometimes-and if there is
anything he hasn't done to make US
happy and comfortable since the first
hut was established at Belrupt on No
vember 8, we don't know what it is.
During its activities with the Wild
Cats, the K. of c. has distributed over
twenty-five tons of goods to our boys.
Everything free, too. They have also
given us some mighty good entertain
ments to while away the dull hours.
Another popular X. of C. man here
lis Secretary John J. Regain. Most
every day after he finishes his beans
and corn willy in the mess hall, "Pop"
Regain entertains the boys with fun
ny story or verse.
"Our efforts to do everything we
could for the boys" says "Nap," have
met with the whole hearted co-opera-
ton Of the officers of the 81st Divis-
ion. They, have been right with US.
II might add we are here to stay
with the Wild Cats until the finish and
that we are mighty proud of them"
: The Minot friends Of Mr.. LaFleur,
who know the earnest zeal with which
he takes hold Of any duty, know that
the endorsement Of the "Wildcat" is
in no sense an exaggeration, and they
are pleased to know of the kindly feel
ing with which Mr.. LaFleur's efforts
are received by "our boys" in Europe.
Mr.. LaFleur will be welcomed home
by host of friends, who have the
conviction that he is every whit the
hero as the man who fought in the
trenches.
