ARMSTRONG 81

strong sedately and quietly awaited
completion of all the lastminute
formalities.
They departed Immediately after
the weighing-in and examinations

transported to the garden this eve
ming for the blood-letting.
WILL CLAIM TITLE
You can take this here and now
that if Ambers wins the fight he
will claim Armstrong; welter
weight title despite any and al
covenants, agreements, and con
tracts instituted by the New York
Boxing Commission. Thus you
will have two welterweight cham
pions abroad at one and the same
time.
1t is highly probable that Am
bers will get himself knocked stiff
or at least will drop the decision
but if he doesn't and unreaSonably
goes ahead to a victory, the thing
will settle into a muddle the likes
of which seldom has been seen be-
fore.
1t all sums up into this: mas.
much as they are fighting for Am
bers' lightweight championship
they had to weigh in below the
welterweight limit of lat pounds
and, because they are under the
welter limit, that title, held by
Armstrong, technically will be at
stake along with the lightweight
crown, held by Ambers.
DOUBLE CHAMP-IF HE WINS
The National Boxing Associa
ton recognizes all this and con
cedeS that Ambers will be a double
champion if he wins, but the New
York Commission remains dis,
tinctly different. The latter body
made Manager AL WE'LL, who pilots
Ambers, and Manager Eddie Mead
of the Armstrong forces, sign
papers saying that only the light.
weight title Was at stake in a Spe.
cial meeting yesterday.
Silly as it may be, the New York
board has a rule to the effect that
only one title can be contested for
at time, and widespread publica-
ton of hints that Ambers would
claim the welter crown in case OF
a victory caused the commission
to get everything down on paper
However, Armstrong probably
will save all and sundry from EN-
barrassment and worry by going
ahead to a victory to annex mis-
third championship in the las!
10 months. Besides the weltel
title, he also is holder of the
featherweight crown, which cant
be involved tonight because neither
will be at the feather division
limit.

of daily exercise.
Early symptoms are frequent
ly shown by quick respiration
and constant coughing which is
usually severe, but with little
pain. The pulse is scarcely ef-
fected.
This ailment, if treated in
time, usually ends in a cure.
Nevertheless, frequent fatalities
are not unusual when Suffoca-
ton is caused from effusion.
Symptoms Of true asthma,
while baSically the same, are
nearly always much more urgent
and are usually confined to
the little, if any nose" toy
types. They comprise a sudden
difficulty in breathing, accom-
panied with spasmS which are
so severe that the dog mani
festly gaSps for breath. But, in
pneumonia, the animals pulse Is
quick and full and the resplra-
ton painful.
Another disease affecting the
respiratory tract, in which the
early symptoms are somewhat
similar to the aforementioned
ailments, Is acute pleur1sy.
