BntH can a fighter who has been knocked out by an opponent come back and win from this same foe? That will be demonstrated tomorrow night when Battling Kelly gets his chance to redeem himself for hls de1eat at the hands of 'tD1xie" Jim Allen about month ago.
 Allen holds the distinction of being the only boxer who has ever knocked Battling" Kelly out, at least, that's what the Battler claims. Kelly has stood up under the blows of many good ringmen. but Allen landed d haymaker that was just exactly right, Kelly went down and stayed down. There was no denying the fact that he was knocked out.
 Kelly's Statement
 However, Kelly comes forward with the assertion that, while not exactly q fluke. this defeat was far from clean cut Allen was as groggy as he, says Kelly, up until the moment of the knockout.
 Tn fact" asserted the Battler. "I wasn't even groggy until Allen landed that punch to the midrfff. It knocked the wind out of me and 1 had not strength enough to get back up until long after Biscoe Seals had counted me out.
 'I am not believer in whining or anything like that. but I feel that am entirely within my rights in claiming that Allen was mighty lucky to hit me that wallop. Another right cross to the jaw and Allen would have been the victim instead of me But that right cross never landed wild haymaker had done It's work
 'I Was Careless, Says Kelly
 "I was mighty careless in leaving myself unprotected, but I thought Al len was out I'll not be so careless next time"
 And Kelfy's statement just about explains .the situation. Tomorrow

" AV SAAu
 That's exactly how the Fam thers put across the win. I had a player on each side taking down the game in short arm, and this is correct account of the plays. Therefore. you can see for your self that Charlie and Jinx got up some system of winning football games. for they men didn't have to exert themself and are in good shope for the next game, where as. If they'd their old style line bucking, some of they men might of died of broken leg. or broken heart or something. For, the little Marion team, while weak on holding the ball, ap- peared to be pretty strong on holding the rushes.
 All my life I've been firm believer in the superstition that IS was a unlucky number. but after Candy had picked up that fumbled ball and ran for a touch- down with the Panthers' first score, and I looked on his back, I saw a big "13" almost a foot high. and right then that super stition went kerflooey. Here after I will have no hesitation whatever in taking the thir- teenth biscuit out of the plate.
 Guilty of No Fouls
 In the jargon of the prize ring, if one man hits another one low he is guilty of foul. and the battle goes to the fella who has been fouled. The Panthers would never of lost Saturdays game on a foul. for they ain't never hit nobody low yet in they tackling
 It must of torn Chass Browns heart out by the roots to see men what he has coached for weeks in the fundamentals ot tackling and beloved his lungs out tell ing 'em to hit 'em low. and then have to set on a bench on the side lines and see his huskies half-1elson the opposish when they tried to break through AL most every Panther tackled like he thought he was in the act of receiving a forward pass or some thing.
 This bad tackling. and the fact that that cadets was using pe- culiar shift. gained the little fel- las ground after ground In the first half and when the half was ever. lots of the rail-birds pre- dicted tht Marion had the Pan-. thers' goat and would show some thing in the scoring line in the last half.
 To stem the predicted attack. and try to drum something up in the ground-gaining line his- self. Chass got Miller and Rogers out of a entanglement of ban dages and sent them. to the res- cue at the start of the second half Rogers. who suffered a dis located shoulder last Saturday. stayed in a few minutes till 1t locked like he might get a dis located neck if he stayed in. and he was called out.

his buddy out of the game & few moments later.
 But the Marion attack was not forthcoming. as had been pre- dicted. Halfback Turner. what should of been named Twister. instead of Turner, had to get out of the game before the first half was over. He was the bright star for Marion, and when he got out 1t seemed to hurt the moral of the team some.
 
 Game Was Spectacular
 In spite Of the high tackling, the numerous fumbling and the many interruptions. the game was spectacular, and a great gather ing of fans journeyed out to see the pastime. It was one of the biggest gatherings what has ever assembled on Munger Field and shows that football between the secondary college has got quite popular The woods approaching the bowl fwas full of autos. the stands was taxed to capacity and about d thousand customers stood up throughout the engagement on the side lines to watch the play.
 Marion got peeved when the referee called the ball & touch down. when the Partners got credit for their second score. Many spectators sidedAwith Ma rion. l was right at the end of the field, however, and I saw the man carry the ball to the goal line in the mass of humans. As my eye saw 1t. he was bending over the linAwith the ball when the whistle blew, but in the fall to the ground after the whistle, he didn't quite get over.
 Just One Week Away
 The Marion-Panther game was what you might say prelimi- : nary for the big game, which takes place at Redwood Field Saturday. when Sewanee and Alabama clash in their usual classic. For awhile it looked like they would call 1t Scott's Thin Green Team. instead of thin red line. but recent reports from U. of A. are to the effect that vast improvement has been shown. and that the Crimson Is coming here we'll heeled for the Purple Tiger.
 It's going to be a great day game of the season. Birmingham fans will turn out in mass for the occasion.

MRS. HICKMAN, SO,
ENJOYS AN HOUR
RIDE IN CLOUDS

Mrs. N. H. Hickman, aged 50, 1907
Seventeenth street. claims the dis
tinction of being the most elderly
lady in the tri-cities to have made
an air fight.
Not to be outdone by her daugh-
ter, Miss Velma Hickman, secretary
to Mayor Harry NJ. Schriver, who
ventured a flight in one of the con-
tinental planes in this city during
the air derby in October. 1919, Mrs.
Hickman took the banter of her
son, ]. E. Hickman. Fresno. Calf,
seriously last Saturday at Catalina
islands, and demanded that he hold
good a promise to take her for a
spin in hydroplane. As the re-
suit she went out over the sea for
an hour in commercial hydro
plane piloted by H. H. Holloway, an
American ace. Her adventurous
spirit brought a demonstration from
several hundred jackies from seven
battleships anchored in the bay,
and when the hydroplane returned
her safely the jackies were singing
Mother o. Nine" and a number of
them snapped pictures of her, and
taking her address in Rock Island,
promised to send her some of the
prints.
Mrs Hickman left for California
last February for a visit with her
son and a daughter, Miss Nina G..
Hickman, also of Fresno. She re-
turned to Rock Island Thursday
night and shocked her two daugh-
tiers, Miss Velma and Miss Gertrude,
with the story of her airplane ad-
venture.
In answer to the questions of
why did you do it," Mrs. Hickman
only answered:
Il don't blame any one for want
ing to go up in an airplane once"
Speaking of her son as Tied"
Mrs. Hickman said that they had
climbed mountain peaks and while
at hotel at Avalon on Catalina is
land, the son said mother. we have
done almost everything but go up
in the air. and now there is ma
chine here to take US up"
He bantered more until Mrs.
Hickman demanded that he keep his
promise. She described her ad-
venture:

in the air an hour and the pilot
took us way out to sea. He would

CATTLE TESTS
Illinois State Fair BOARD Lays
Down Strict Rules Regard
ing Exhibits.

Springfield, ILL.,, May 6.--All cat
tie exhibited at the state fair this
year must be accompanied by Ger
tificates from their owners show
ing that they have been tested for
tuberculosis within 80 days pre-
viOusly. This resolution was adop-
ted at a meeting of the Illinois
state fair advisory board held in
the Office Of the department OF ag-
riculture today for the purpose of
preventing any possible spread of
tuberculosis among cattle brought
together at the state fair.
The resolution provides that the
superintendent of dairy and beef
cattle must require such certifi-
Gates from the owners. 1t applies
to all cattle except those from fed
eral or state accredited herds.
The board also ordered that in
dividual buckets for the respective
herds must be used for watering
the animals and that no public
drinking troughs shall be permit
ted. Any cattle brought to the
state fair which are not covered by
certificates OF health must be plac-
ed under quarantine and housed
under tents.
This action is taken in coopera-
ton with the division of animal IN
dustry of the department Of agri-
culture, which is making cam
paign to stamp out tuberculosis

Two hundred government home
purchasers met in the Washington
school Thursday night and heard a
letter read from Congressman W..
J. Graham in which it was said that
the United States Housing corpc-
ntion will fight against collection
Of taxes on the 217 government
built homes in Rock Island.
The letter quoted Thomas Wat
son. president Of the corporation,
In saying that as the 1920 taxes
have been computed from assess
ments made while the housing cor
poration still held the deeds to the
properties. they are illegal. Fur
Their statement was made that on
Information that threats are being
made here TO sell the properties for
the taxes the housing corporation
would take immediate steps to curb
such procedure. Injunction pro-
ceedings will be resorted to, as in
the case OF the 1919 tax fight, it
was said. Next year the buyers
will have to pay taxes as the deeds
will have been delivered by that
time.
The city of Rock Island and the
school board probably will be/able
to collect taxes from the corpora
ton.
Sums we're collected last year in
lieu OF the 1919 taxes This was
done under special contract with
the housing corporation, and it is
held that the contract is still good.
In the present tax fight the county,
as last year, is the loser.
