BIG BOXERS WILL
BATTLE TONIGHT
IN KENOSHA RING
BY RAY

Kenosha opens the doors to the boxing
fans tonight with a show in which the
windup will be furnished by a couple of
Light heavyweights. Tony Melichar and
Sergt. Jack Burke and a couple o. pre-
Inns that promise plenty of interesting
action.
Particular interest Is being shown in
the Melichar-Burke clash, because II
viii give Melichar. who is a former ana
teur champion. a chance TO show his
real worth as a professional. Tony is
one of those fellows who might have
started boxing for a living a couple Of
years ago. but didn't. He located him
self in a remunerative position with q
taxicab company. But he didn't toss the
mitts away. He kept right at the game
in his spare moments.
Many of those who have watched Nell
char box are strong in the belief that
Tony has the nakings OF a heavyweight
Of championship caliber. He is clever
and he packs q good w7allop in his right
hand. In meeting Burke he will have
the opportunity to show just how good
he is. fer Burke has been boxing In
great style.

Prohibition Is Discussed.

Prohibition in the United States
caused long and interesting dis
cussion. Had resolution been Of
Tered urging Congress to withdraw
from the Constitution the amendment
1t would have been carried. It. was
brought out by the men that probably
no news from the United States had
passed more quickly throughout
France among American troops than
did that announcing the ratification of
the prohibition amendment by the
necessary thirty-six states. 1t was
also stated that no news caused more
gloom than did the fact that the
United States was to go dry :.
When it came to a discussion OF
prices charged Americans by the
French for foodstuffs there was an
agreement by many of the men to the
statement made by a private that
Americans paid good prices for every
thing bought, Their one. regret was
that they could not pass off on the
French tobacco coupons for French
bank notes, as the eighteen month
'old-timers" said the pioneer group of
the American expeditionary force did.
When the French came to cash the
coupons they learned their mistake
and the system of the Americans
broke down completely.
The reason for high prices in France
WAS explained by an "old-timer." He
said that when Americans want
thing they've got to have 1t and that,
as a rule, they are liberal with their
money. In explanation, he declared
that the pioneer Americans would pay
so cents when the bill was 40 cents,
telling the clerk or waiter to keep the
entire amount. This occurred so often
that the merchant made the fixed
price so cents to Americans. This
rule. he said, applied in many cases
where apparently exorbitant prices
were charged and that the Americans
had only themselves to blame.
