ference is stll continuing, according to

khaki-dressed lads were being shipped
overseas to meet the foe, many boxes
fell down badly. Indeed. as a class.
professional boxers and professional
baseball players looked bad when
compared with college athletes. Most
of the latter FASTENED to enlist with
out waiting the draft. Boxers
and ball play,l, hung around. most
of them doing their level best to re-
main on this side of the pond.
If Jack Dempsey is to be banned
from American rings for his failure to
serve his country by enlisting, what
must one think of Benny Leonard?
Dempsey was no champion in 1917 or
1918. Indeed, he had to hustle to find
enough to eat. He lived mostly on
hopes of beco, ling a champion. If IT
Is trur that he Aad TO support a wife,
a mother an invalid brother and a
sister-and the san Francisco exemp-
ton board seemed to think he did-he
had far better excuse than did Benny
Leonard for not donning a uniform.
Lived in Uniform.
Benny Leonard. with plenty OF
money for the support of that mother
of whom we have heard so much, be-
came a boxing instructor at Camp Up
ton. lie then lived in a uniform. His
shrewd manager got as much piblicity
of that technical connection with the
army as he possibly could. Indeed.
for months il seemed as if Benny
Leonard was winning the war all by
himself.
Within the last year we have rc-
ceived several letters from former sol
diers who were trained at Camp Upton
and their remarks about Leonard were
far from complimentary. Yet, no
campaign has ever started against the
worlds lightweight champion.
Today all over America boxers IRE
gazing a living in spite of the poor
est of war records They are 50
humble that they attract no attention.
The worlds heavyweight champion,
having money mad. sweet scented
manager. is being made a target for
hostile shots when many others. o.
cupying similar positions as regards
their deeds between April @. 1917
and November II, 1918, are escaping.
And this all follows the demands
OF Jack Kearns for the world with
a fence around it before permitting
Dempsey to climb through the ropes
and defend his title against Georges
Carpenter.
In the years 10 come we are suroto
hear of many such attacks as this
against Jack Dmpsey. And we are
always going to think of four or five
of our aCquaintanccs who fell down
badly, and who should never be able
to look into mirror again. But
these chaps escape because they
have no talkstive Jack Kesrns in
their pay.
