Personally, I don't care rap about
the Stacker prizefighters or what be-
comes Of them. The government can
turn the whole "bloomin' " lot over to
the prohibitionists for all the difference
1t makes to me, The fact is. no greater
punishment could be meted out to those
war dodgers than to give them over to
the prohibs--pack and parcel,
One Hogan, out Los Angeles way,
claims to have been chairman of the ex.
emption board that passed on the
Dempsey claims for exemption from
war service. Mr.. Hogan is very en-
phatic in his assertion that Dempsey is
not a Stacker "If Dempsey is slack
err then I'm one" says Hogan.
That's all right coming from man
whose name is Hogan. Oh. boy! Won
der II Hogan is Sim Feiner-what?

Leonard Made Money.

Had the gentleman stated that Benny
Leonard made a lot of money for HIM
self boxing here and there, while as
signed as a boxing Instructor at Camp
UPTON, all of which he and his manager
pouched, no one would venture to Ques-
tion the statement. But to say that
Benny Leonard contributed his services
for war funds and raised over $500, 900,
which was turned overNto these funds
during the war. sounds good deal like
one Of the Fluffy Jack Kearns pipe
dreams.
Leonard probably did engage in bouts
In which a certain percentage of the
gate receipts were donated to some OF
the war charities, but, make no mis-
take, Leonard grabbed the lions share
Of the receipts for himself every time.
And frankly speaking that's what they
all did, except Jack Britton, who really
did contribute his services many times
for all sorts of war funds, and the rec
ords fail to show that Britton ever ac-
cepted as much as one dollar for his
services.
Moreover, Jack Britton, according to
his manager Dan Morgan, was about 81
years old when we got into the war.
And, while speaking Of Britton and his
labors in behalf of war charities, it is
fit and proper to say good word for
his manager Dan Morgan, who was al
ways on the go in the interest of Grip
pied soldiers and war relief funds. Both
deserve well of all patriotic Americans.
