butchers boy to be cattle baron and
controller of more land than some
European princes, would be placed on

About 10 years ago Tom Gibbons
had serious thoughts of becoming a
Catholic priest; today he is regarded
by many as the logical foeman for
Jack Dempsey. And. the curious part
OF it is that a Catholic priest really
got him enthused about boxing.
Tom was a student at st. Thomas
College in St. Paul, presided over by
Father Dumphy. an athlete of no mean
ability. Father John had system of
his own in dealing our punishment to
youngsters who fractured the school
rules. Let Tom tell about it.
II busted regulation one afternoon
and was caught in the act. Father
John gravely informed me that he

ably puzzled when he squared away,

we got busy and mixed it fast and flu

of the first real boxing clashes in

Il learned afterward the Father
John punished all the boys by giving
them boxing lessons. The only
trouble with the system was that the
boys all aimed to get a good crack at
him some day or other and they Gag
erly sought the privilege of boxing
with him even whether they had
broken any rules or not. Father John
never got rough with US kids-but he

Blacklisting of all professional

from playing with semipro and sand

movement was started in Chicago

All men kicked ouS OF professional
baseball after a fair hearing because
of questionable acts should be kept
out of the semi-pro ranks. The pub,
lie and the semi-pro players them
selves should see to that.
