BURKE IS VICTIM

KALAMAZOO Mich. Sept. FL
Tommy Gibbons OF st. Paul scored his
sixteenth straight knockout here last
night when he put away Joe Burke OF
Detroit in the second Of a scheduled
ten round bout a left hook to the
Jaw did the trick.
While the battle did not last long.
Burke furnished some real opposition
for the Gopher lightweight. He un-
packed a wicked punch and Gibbons
quickly came to the conclusion that he
could not afford TO tal.e any chances.
Burke ripped a bad gasn in Glib
bons' forehead in the opening round
with terrific LETT swing. Burke
nimbly avoided Gibbons punches -
this round and had decided advant-
age.
Gibbons lost no time in tearing into
his opponent in the second. A hard
left hook staggered Burke. Gibbons
then whipped in hard body blow.
followed by another left hook. which
sent Burke down and out.

Fakers and Peddlers Fill
Streets as Police Parade

The peddlers spilled their packs in
generous fashion over the sidewalks
yesterday. With 5000 vigilant pairs Of
eyes removed from the scene of their
operations, as the police paraded the
avenue, the takers and peddlers had a
riotous time in theiH customary down
town haunts. The area from Park. Row
to to the Battery was suggestive of an
Eastern bazaar and equally noisy.
In place of the usual surreptitious
hawking, raucous voices advertised a
greater conglomeration Of wares than
has ever been seen at one time in the
business and financial districts.
All sorts of vehicles were called into
use for the peddling Of chocolate, chew
ing gum, fruit, flags, socks ,(belts, beads
and balloons. Flivvers were laden
down ). with bananas and chocolate.
Wheeioarrows trundled magnifying

mand of Inspector William T. Davis.
After them came eight regiments of
the city's police. In the first regiment
were four battalions of rifemen and a
medical corps detachment. With them
was capable-looking company of men
with light machine guns for riot duty.
The traffic police were next. The last
! of their ranks wore the new signal
| jackets, with the traffic lights as on
the signal towers flashing on their
| chests.
| In the eighth regiment were the
marine division, under Inspector James
w. Hallock; the motorcycle division,
under Acting Captain A. L. Howe, and
the bicycle division, on shiny new BIZ

Police Heroes Honored
When all were seated the honor men
| came and lined themselves before the
Mayor. Again the national anthem
was played. There were seven men
who had performed such deeds of
bravery in 1920 as to merit decoration.
Mayor Hylan addressed them, saying:
1t is my privilege to present to you
heroes of the Police Department the
| medals of honor which you have earned
by your devotion. You have met the
test and have not been found wanting
Display these insignia of distinguished
service, and put to shame those who by
mailciously criticising and maligning
the department place themselves in al
nance with the criminal forces and the
agents of lawlessness and anarchy.
"The men of the Police Department
will find satisfaction in the knowledge
that the vicious elements, which by
their treason to society and to this city
endeavor 60 thwarJ you and iniure YOU
in the public esteem, do not represen mt

lorlty OF our people are deeply appreci-
ative of the good work of the police,
and feel safe under the splendid pro-
lection which you honor men and your
comrades are giving to this city day by
day.
I'm the name of the people of the
City of New York, whom | have the

| name of every brave policeman who
was injured or killed in the perform
ance of duty, 1 present to you these

enjoy these marks of distinction, and
long may you live as bright exemplars
which has won for the New York police
force generous commendation. whole
some respect and deserved honor.
Patrolman Patrick G. Fitzgibbon, of
the 18th Inspection District, was the
first to be decorated. He received the
Department Medal of Honor. Patrol
man John j. Loughran, Of the doth Pre-
cinct, was awarded the Rhinelander

Borough President Henry II. Curran
saw the police parade yesterday, even
though he hadn't been able to get tick
cts for the reviewing sJailG. He saw it
from high pressure fire hydrant 1G5, on
the northwest corner Of Fourteenth
Street and Seventh Avenue, just as he
said he would in letter TO his friend
Tomlinson, who asked him for ticket,
and, to their mutual delight, he saw
it with a veteran Of his own division,
whom he had not seen since they were
mustered out.
Further down on Broadway another
member of the Board of Estimate
viewed the parade from his own pri~
vate observation post. Comptroller
Charles l.. Craig had also been sighted
by the Mayor and received no official
pasteboards for the event. He stood at
the corner of Reade Street and smiled
at the silk-hatted Mayor and special
deputies as they passed by.
Both the Comptroller and the Bor-
ough President were determined to
face the police band music ,indaunted
and unashamed. The Borough Presi-
dent declared he liked being away from
the notables and at the hydrant with
the common people.
~ feel much more at home here" he
said II am in better company. These
are my own people. Our arrangements
for seats went through without 8
hitch"
! The publication Of the Borough
| Presidents letter to William H. Tom.
! lapson in yesterday mornings papers
brought him a score of messages from
persons who had received invitations tc
the reviewing stand, asking him to ac-
cept their tickets and join the city
officials. Mr.. Curran declined all OF
them. Mayor, Hylan issued statement
evadirg the issue by declaring that HI
did not invite the Borough Presiden
or anyone else to see the parade from
the official stand, as all invitations
came from the Police Commissioner
The Borough President maintained
however, that neither the Mayor MOI
Police Commissioner Enright had SEN
him any tickets. A few were sent tt

quarters division, corps of physicians
and surgeons and motor transport
division. Two regiments of police re-
serves and a machine gun group COM
pleted this division.
Three seaplanes manned by members
of the reserve force flew over the line
of march. The planes were piloted by
Major Donald Van de Water, Major
John Cans and Lieutenant Sydney
Clark.
The mounted police of the regular
force closed the parade. There were
three sqnadrons. Inspector George Lie
bers was commanding.
Three Police Dinners Given
After the parade there were three
dlnners-one for the visiting police
chiefs at the Hotel Commodore, an
| other at the Hotel Astor, where the
Giee Club was entertaining its leader,
Sergeant Fitzgibbon, and then there
was the fourteenth annual dinner of
the Traffic Squad Association at the
Waldorf-Astoria.
Mayor Hylan skipped from one to
the other, saying few words at each.
1t was announced at the Glee Club din
ner that Rodman Wanamaker, who was
not present, had set aside a fund of
So,oU, the interest of which will
accrue to the benefit of the club
At the Waldorf there were more than
one thousand traffic patrolmen, police
officials, public dignitaries and guests.
The speakers were Mayor Hylan, Gas
ton Liebert, Consul General for
France; Commodore Frederick Peck, of
Chicago; Commissioner Enright, Dep
uty Commissioner John Harriss and
the Rev. Francis P. Duffy.
Mr.. Enright took occasion to express
MS gratitude in behalf of the Police
Department for the decoration which
had been bestowed on him by the
French government.
