LUCKY?

"Red Herring stuck over a lucky hook
to Dolan's chin which made him take
the count" states the Chicago News
in its paragraph covering the battle OF
red headed lightweights at the South
ern A, c. last week.
Lucky left hook? outside Of the fact
that 1t was a smashing right cross de-
iiyered after careful aim. the statement
is highly true In all of the essential
details.
But knockout wallops, akin to the II
that dropped Dolan, are hardly in. the
lucky category. They strikingly con-
form to all the characteristics of the
old-time stuff.
Herring is lucky in one sense, to-wit:
That he has a kick that is hardly SUI
passed by any Of the present flock.
But whether or not he can land 1t on
some shiftier blokes is another matter.

SMALL PACKERS MEET
Cooperate With Meat Division
Charles Wolff Attends Session.

Chicago. Feb. 19.-Urging a CO.
operative scheme for exporting their
products, F. S. Snyder, chairman of
the meat division of the federal food
met here today with
fifty representatives of smaller pack
ers in conference.
Snyder said the food administration
heretofore had pro-rated meat exports
among the smaller packers. This
agency. he said. soon to cease activi-
ties, is suggesting an organization
among the packers themselves to in
sure continued exports to European
countries under provisions of the
Webb Pomerene act.
Arrangements have already been
made by the administration to con-
tinue separate shipments of meats to
Belgium, Sweden and Denmark. Nor
way is to be added to the list in April,
Snyder said.
Unless the packers take the step,
Snyder told them, they will face loss
of $50, 900, 600 in annual exports. Pork
will sell at 10 cents. he said, unless
packers move to keep prices steady.

ing were c. F. Hammond. Detroit; F.
