PiOnbo TOutS TuScal loOSan
 As Big Find

John Piombo, Montgomery fight pro- motor, was in Birmingham yesterday. seking to obtain some local boxers to
 appear in an exhibition affair in Mont gcmery for the United States soldiers.
 It was partially arranged, but not deti- nitely settled, that Dummy" Harrington. Athletic Club welterweight. will meet q soldier in Montgomery some time this month The affair will be strictly anna teur, no professionalism entering into the arrangements.
 Piombo had quite a bit to say about boxing and boxers. He Is wildly enthus- iastic over the "south's sfeatest repre- sentative in national heavyweight boxing circles Joe White. Piombo claims the distinction of discovering White.
 Last Fourth of July. Piombo was at the Piombo Athletic Association in Mont i gomery, when a great, ambling, countr1- j fed youth entered his office This lad was Joe White. White was great clumsy fellow in those days. He stumbled into Piombo's office and said:
 i've heard a lot about this Willard Dempsey fight, and I would like to be a boxer myself. Any cnanee for me to jget some fights?"
 Of course Pombo dodged around, ask ing questions, and seeming only half in- terested He agreed to give the lad a workout. however, and took him into his l gymnasium. White, when stripped K hibited 196 pounds of splendid manhood. with broad shoulders and well knit figure. He had come direct rom Tuscaloosa. where by his own admission. he had been carrying logs to a neighboring sawmill. Strong as mule," grunted PioNs>r after a short, very hard session on the wrestling mat with the Tuscaloosa Her. cules. From then on he was as inter- ested in White as an ordinary grizziy is in bee hive.
 He worked with White for four months and the lad developed into a remarkable ringman for one of his age. He is ls years old now.
 Tn the months since last July f. White has risen from the lowest depths of ob- Ecurity to actual fame. at least in south fern rings.
 Joe fought his fiji st. professional bout

FREAKISH PITCHING BARRED, J. E V K R s

Johnny Evers, the Trojan, wants to come back into the baseball game now that they have barred the pitchers from using freak deliveries. Johnny is quite certain that the very pitchers who caused his bat ting average to dwindle to n mere nothing toward the end of his serV- ice with the big league would be soft picking for him now.
 "Pd like to have n chance to take n crack at those fellows now that they have to pitch on the level" he told President Heydler of the Ma tionuI League yesterday. "Whnt n clustering 1 would give them and what n plastering some of them are going to get all around. could bust them pretty we'll before they got to using emory and other things and | could bust them again if ] got the chance"

Hope Lost For Boxing Bill In
 Empire State
ax A..onlntnd pr,,,


 Albany, N. l., April Hope that the New York state legislature would enact legislation designed to legalize boxing in this state was virtually abandoned to- day,
 Senator James J.

 T believe much of this opposition Is inspired by men who have been a detrl- ment to the game an dob1eet to the strict regulatory features of the bill" he added. The Walker bill, intended to provide for fifteen-round bouts to decision. was prepared by the army and navy civilian board of boxing control

 Kansas, local pride.
 Tn the second round. Kansas. hit Ad on the mouth and knocked out a brace of teeth. A round or two later he closed one of Wolgast's eyes and in tke seventh or eighth made it all even by closing the other Tn odd moments he plunked Ad in the stomach the ears, the head and the heart.
 Ad weathered the ten rounds, but when he left the ring he looked like a person who had tried conclusions with a very savage mule. He was trailed to his dressing room by Eddie Tranter, a Buffalo sports writer, who tells the rest of the story this way;
 No sooner had Ad reached his dress ing room than he began thrieking for time table. I asked him what he wanted it for.
 "T want to get the first train to last Monday night in Memphis against Texas Tate, a ringman of seven or eight years experience. White was given the decision.
 Tate is a hard man to beat During his career he has fJught Fulton three times, once to a draw, was knocked oui once and lost the decision in the third He held Jess Willard to a four-rounc draw. White certainly made an impres sive debut in his fight with Tate.
 Piombo claims Jack Kearns would no allow Jack Dempsey to go four round: with the Tuscaloosa boy According tc the Montgomery promoter. Keams stated that he didn't want to see White killed to which White answered that he was no afraid of being killed, and for that ras, matter was willing to meet Dempsey in { bare-fist argument. Piombo had proposed feur-round sparring match betweei White and Dempsey, twelve-Cunce glove to be used.

THE LINCOLN THEATRE.
(By DR.. w. II. Lowry

sse 10y LII. w. n. Lowry
The opening of the Lincoln theatre
marks q new epoch in the history of the
Negro race in Des Moines. The least
that can be said about the theatre is
that it is modern in every respect and
affords the best accommodations of any
theatre in the city. The entrance has
tile floor and the doors are mahogany
finished. The interior is beautifully
decorated, well ventilated, and has a
seating capacity of 400. The operat-
ing room is the largest Of any other
theatre in Des Moines. This room is
strictly fire proof and is equipped with
two power HB'' machines, latest
models. The entire lighting system of
the theatre is controlled from the oper-
ating room. The pictures are first class,
and in order to keep up to the stan
dard, contract Of 100000 has been
let for standard pictures, many the pro-
duction of the best Negro screen ar
lists.
Besides the '.movies, 7, the theatre
has . fne stage, well arranged for
vaudeville. Some of the leading vaude-
vile shows viii appear upon this stage
during the winter season. The theatre
ID run by Banks & Robson. The build
ing that houses the theatre contains an
undertaking parlor, a drug store and
three other store rooms. The entire
project was conceived in the minds of
Messrs. p. Tracy Blagburn and L. J..
Shelton. At the beginning, the propo-
sition involved an outlay Of $3,500.0O.
Subsequent changes have increased this
amount to more than $5,00O.00. These
men, laboring under great financial
strain, and with defeat itself starring
them in the face, continued to beat up
on the iron until their visions finally
rounded into success. h..
