YOUTH DETHR0NSE
CUNNING ACE IN
TEST OF PRQWEss
M / c k ey Walker De
thrones Britton in the
Squared Circle

New York, Nov. "A grinning,
tousle headed young fellow from Eli
zsbeth, n. j., is welterweight boxing
champion of the world today because
he had absolutely no respect for. old
age, wisdom and cunning when he
ran athwart them at Madison Square
Garden last night. He signs his
checks Michael Edward Walker, but
the boys call him Mickey and his ap-
pearance does not belle the aptness
of the monicker. Mickey Walker is
the new champion, and Jack Britton,
the Sage of the ring, is again an eX-
champion. It's not exactly a new role
for Britton, but it appears likely to
be a permanent one nQw Jack held
the title for nearly a decade, first
losing it to Ted (Kid) Lewis, and la
ter ragaining it from the same man.
The battle last night will stand out
in the annals of boxing and in the
memories of those who saw it as one
of the most curious in sport noted
for its ups and downs and ms and
outs. Almost unprecedented before
even minor battles and extremely
rare among tttular contests was the
action of the state boxing commits
sion in announcing before the contest
started that "all bets are off"
The state of New York by law and
TIL, boxing commission by regulation
prohibits betting on the bouts, even
if it does flourish. At any rate
chairman Muldoon of the commission
became worried when he learned be-
fore the bout started that the odds
had changed within few hours from
8 to 5 on Britton, to to on Walk
er, ard he had the announcement
made without further explanation.
The fight was a rafting attain
from the first gong and when the fit.
teenth round ended and the battered
champion was still on his feet the
crowd rallied to the cry of "Joe Hum
phries, the veteran announcer, gave
three cheers to what Joe called "thC
best champion who ever lost his title
in this arena
Walker led from the first, and ever
though somewhat wild, penetrated the
mastery defense Of Britton at once
landing numerous damaging blow!
and putting the champion on the de
Tense. Britton went to the floor
nearly half dozen tines, once from
the combination of a light tap anC
stumble, again apparently to rest hin
self, and again when the gong saved
him, because his aching stomach
wouldn't stand another drive
Briton's chief stock last night was
courage and eraftiness. Both ena.
Uled him to escape a knockout. Wal
ker, too, had cunning, but the effort
of continually beating the canny
BrittOn, who forced a maximum eX-
penditure of energy for the smallest
return and occasionally shot a stag
gering blow himself, wore down the
challenger and ne was weak when the
battle ended

London, Nov. 2-The recent influx
of American jazz bandsmen to sup
ply music for the constantly. increas-

succumbed to the fox trot has had
the effect of spreading considerable
alarm among English musicians, ma

Recently there have been numer-
Gus representations to the Home Sec

large number of American jazzers
have come here posing as students of
tourists, while they already have
contracts in their pockets calling for
large salaries, some as high as sixty
pounds week.

We were met at Versailles by two French officers who took us in charge for the rest of the day, As soon as we left the buses our rBe- gram started and we went through the Palace the first thing.
