NEW YORK, Oct 15.-While the

been decidedly tardy in one. Not since
The days when John l.. Sullivan

Of bare knuckle lighting on the turf

Thus have seven champions blazed
their way along the heavyweight trail
since it was last trod by man claim

BRAINS FIGHT Drawn
IN MUSCODA VILLAGE.

Louis ROhovetz and Joe Briska just
glover at each other now as they pass
by. While Louie uses two perfectly
good lamps, in the glowering act,
Joe must be content with one good
optic; the other was put out of COM
mission by the belligerent activities
of the aforesaid Louie
When Progressive reporter inves-
tigated the matter and learned that
Louie and few other employees of
the furniture factory have been "kid-
ding" Joe to the point of desperation.
Joe's patience gave out yesterday
about noon just at the time when
Louie was the "culprit'' in the kid
ding" act. Anyway, Joe, who has in
fnitely more book learning than
Drawn and muscle, resented the sat
tack with some show of hostility. To
emphasize the character of his OPP
erations he called Louie a pin-head-
ed peanut. This was more than Louie
could stand-coming as they did from
Joe's vocabulary of choice cuss words.
To make sure that he did not mis-
understand this vile epithet he dared
Joe to repeat it.
Now Joe is not much of fighter,
despite the fact that he can tell more
about the world war than one ever
read in the papers.
Joe fOOlish1y repeated the name, it
is said, and now he. as a reward for
his bravery, is nursing a pet on his
left eye that nobody is envious Of
