Paris, Jan. 1.-THE Knights of Co.

boxing tournaments and contests for

All the noted boxing promoters of
France have enlisted to aid in what
is expected to be the biggest boxing

the immediate future, and most of
the contestants will be men from the
American army. All divisions will be
represented-heavy weight middle
weight. welter weight. light weight,
feather weight. bantam weight and
the so-callcd fly weight. Contests
between heavy weights will be the
feature of the tournament and the

from other countries may be pitted
against the best the American army
can offer in the way of pugilism.

opponents suitable to meet Georges

American troops are exhibiting the
liveliest interest in the approaching
tournament. and it is entirely probable
that the knights of Columbus will try
