Fires Blaze Defiance to Voliva,
Rout Zionists in Illegal Attire

sscorching campaign against anti-Zion-
lst churches in Zion. There are inde-
pendents living in the holy city, prop
erty owners, who do not bend the knee
to Voliva, and they have opened their
own houses of worship. Voliva erected
large billboards in front and round
these places denouncing them IN letters
foot high.
The burning of the signs caused a
general disregard of one of Voliva's 3
sternest DEGREES. His people came forth
showing ankles, knees and necks, and
some of the women's arms were actu-
ally bare to the elbow because of their
sudden flight from their homes without
regard for attire. The fire and it's con-
sequences are expected to bring from
Voliva an eruption of words thar will
frighten Lake Michigan clear back to
the five-mile crib.

but It has been announced by Commits
Sioner John Smith that the sport reigned
successfully through the season in that
state.
Local Situation
With the exception OF two clubs pro-
moters in Philadelphia have been suf-
fcring losses. The Olympia and Cam
bria have enjoyed success, from box
Office standpoint, SO far during the
1020-21 season, but other promoters
had to dig deep into their jeans. Boxing
was started at the Ice Palace, but after
several losing shows it was decided TO
close that spacious amphi-thcatre as a
boxing arena. The Germantown and
Auditorium Clubs changed arrangements
before the end of the year.
Five clubs are in the local fistic field
ms the new year starts. The Olympia,
National, Germantown, Cambria and
Auditorium are to put on weekly shows.
Two Philadelphians, Willus Britt and
Joe Kennedy, are promoting bouts in
neighbOring cities, the former at Ches-
ter, Pa, while Reading, Pa, is where
Kennedy is holding forth.
Herman Taylor, who was matchmaker
and manager of the Camden Sports
mems Club, took over the duties of ar
ranging bouts at the Olympia here,
while the other matchmakers are Frank
O'Brien, at the National; Johnny
Burns, at the Cambria; Marcus Will
liams, at the Auditorium, and Johnny
KrauSc, at the Germantown.
