To Lyons the ring idols were demi-'
gods, and he decided that he would
endeavor to break into the charmed
circle. When he mentioned his in
tention to his friends they gave him
the weIl-known razz. They real
lied Lyons knew as much about
fighting as a fighter did about a
boat.
Being men who enjoyed rough
sport, it struck them as a great
joke for their pal to get inside the
ropes and take lacing while they
looked on. There wasn't much sym.
pathy expressed in those days for
"a beaten man, no matter whether
he were a friend or foe.
At this period Dyer" Darts was
on top Of the boxing heap, beating
all who faced him. Nothing would
do for Lyons but TO challenge
Darts, and the latter, figuring it
was an easy way to pick up a lit
tie change, accepted.
Despite the fact that they could
not see how Lyons could win, his
friends backed him to their last
penny. It looked such a one-sided
affair that they got 10 to / for
their 0ouSn. DafLS, having bet all
the could, started out to finish the
clumsy waterman in quick fashion
For half an hour he butchered
Lyons, and then discovered TO his
dismay that Lyons was like our IA
nous Joe Grim. The harder he hit
Lyons the more the latter bore in
At the end of forty minutes Darts
was worn out from hitting his oppo.
nent
Though Lyons had taken a lacinp
that would have killed normal
man. he was as fresh as q daisy
when Darts was tired out, It was
only a question Of minutes before
he whacked Darts on the side OF
his head and the champion went
down in heap, whipped to a fraz
zle.
You can imagine the yelIs of the
friends Of the new champion. They
carried him away In glory and for
the next few days spent most oil
their winnings drinking the good
lold ale Of that period. 1t was an
orgy that Sc the countryside attire

Kessler was called for personal

significant that Eastern was being
consistently fouIed In the second
half. while the officials apparently
overlooked the neck-wringing tac-
ties Of the Baltimore lads.
Hook was called for personal
foul in mid-court and Stern missed
again. The ball stuck in the old

one. Later Land snapped one into

The crisis looming up in the hard coal industry

it produces of coal used in this country and does
it in haphazard and inefficient way. The anthracite
industry far better organized and far efficient
There is less therefore why the public should
be inconvenienced by its failure to function.
If the threatened shutdown occurs on September

same heavy weight of public opinion which
whelmed the soft coal people last year should be
brought to bear the naughty hard coal barons

There is growing recognition that in any such

must not be ignored by either labor capital or by
both cooperating to fleece by jointly rails
