As was said at the beginning Of this
article the st. Louis has |. memorable his
p tory. Hardly had she been put into service
when she was called upon to 20 to the res
cue Of q vessel in distress. This was in
1918 when the Dutch steamer veendsm
sprsnr a leak $40 miles from Southampton.
The vessel rushed to this sister in distress
and effected the rescue Of passengers and
crew.
During the Spanish American War the
st. Louis was requisitioned BY the navy and
turned into an auxiliary cruiser and did re-
msrkabls work cutting cables in the West
Indies. Again during the World War th.
st. Louis was the first American steamer TO
carry guns on her deck as a protection
against German submarines. This was
shortly after Germany's declaration that
open warfare was to be carried on against
any ships within certain restricted areas.
The startling fact about this voyage IA that
the st. Louis had uuknowinsly cruised
around for three hours the night before she
arrived on the other side in a field Of Ger
man mines
On July %, 1917, the st. Loui, enr,sed
In battle with a German submarine while
making passage from New York TO Liver
pool. The battle lasted twenty Ave min
utes- The U-boat fired sixty snots and III,
81. Louis forty-two. No damage was done.
The vessel is also credited with having ram
med submarine, bat conclusive evidences a,
to this feat is lacking. In 1915 the vessel
was employed in bringing the boys home
from overseas. While in this service a baby
was born. For the first time the log boot

Boxing Contests
For War Veterans
Welfare at Garden

An event which bids fair to stimulate
no little interest in the amateur sports
world will be the nth Division boxing
tournament in Madison Square Garden
on the evening Of May 4. The purpose
of the tournament is two-fOld: To
raise funds which will enable the 18th
to carry on it's welfare work among the
disabled and unemployed veterans and
to promote interest in the fistic sport.
The benefit is being arranged by the
Metropolitan Division of the Amateur
Athletic Union.
The bouts staged last year in the list
Regiment Armory by the nth created
such widespread interest and brought
out such excellent local talent that it
is the belief and hope of those in
charge of this years exhibition that
it will attract the best amateur boxers
in the city.
For a number OF months past the
18th Division Association has been
conducting. through its club at 27 West
Twcnt. fifth Street, welfare service
for the benefit Of needy cXservice men.
The worl. has comprised such activi-
ties as feeding, clothing, housing and
finding work for unfortunate veterans.
In the latter phase Of the work, the
division association has co-operated
with the City Employment Bureau at
1923 Worth Street. At the worst period
of the industrial depression, Major S.
Fullerton Weaver. chairman of the 77th
Welfare Committee, mbined the activ-
tiles Of his employment service with
those of the city bureau, lending con-
siderable material aid to the latter or
gauization.
