Most veterinarians. I believe,
will agree with me that an ami
NAL affected with this scourge
has at some time been owned
or in the vicinity of a person
in an advanced stage of con-
sumption. When this is true,
the bacilli from the human is
ordinarily breathed into the
lungs as a fine dust, or it may
find its way into the bowels
mixed with food. Numerous OBJ
servers not only agree that tu-

thus contracted from humans,
but is sometimes found in dogs
living in dirty, ill-kept kennels.
The parasites which both
multiply and live in the body
nevertheless possess the prop
erty Of living outside of the body
for a certain length of time.
This is known for the reason
that the excretionS of tubercular
animals have been frequently
used successfully to inoculate
against the disease. I believe it
therefore safe to conclude that
tuberculosis is only produced by
injection or transmission of
tubercle bacilli, direct or in
direct, from one subject to an
other. Due to the fact, how
ever, that the disease is COM
paratively rare in dogs, it is not
necessary to give any lengthy
detailed explanation concerning
its various phases.
Many organs of the dog may
become infected with this deadly
disease although it is most
usually found in the respiratory

tuberculosis is present, the ami

more frequent and painful as

be a discharge from the nose

tuberculosis in any of the
abdominal organs is usually ex-

though great emaciation and
symptoms similar to chronic

of consumption are the gradual

WILSON'S VISION
FOUND GOOD" BY.
BOXING SOLONS.
By BOB ADDIE


The many rumors that have
been circulating in local boxing
circles for the past few months
that Bob Wilson, local welter-
weight, was virtually a blind
man." were exploded today with
the official report, received from
the District Boxing Commission,
on an examination of Wilson's
eyes.
Wilson was examined yesterday
by Drs. John L. DeMayo and Will
liam Greaney, commission physi-
clans, whose official findings were
turned over to Major Ernest w.
Brown, chairman of the boxing
commission. =,
"Wilson's eyes and vision"
Major Brown announced today,
"have been found to be In good
condition"
REPORT DEFERRED
Concerning Donald Reds
Barry, local heavyweight who
like Wilson, requested an examina
ton. the commission deferred an
nouncement until careful analy
sis of the medical examiners re
port can be made.
Both boxers alleged they were
being kept off local boxing cards
by Matchmaker Goldie Ahearn be,
cause of "rumorS" they were not
physically fit. In Wilson'S case
it was his eyes. Barry has been on
the permanently retired list OF
the National Boxing Association
roster but wants to come back.
Meanwhile, both principals OF
the postponed Griffith Stadium
battle last night returned to
training. Phil Furr went back to
New York while George Abrams
will continue his training at the
National Capital Health Center
here.
It seems the local boxing fathers
were considerably upset by the
wide publicity given to the
charges, made by Furr's manager,
Chris Dundee, that special" gloves
had been used in many of Abrams
previous contests.
NEW RULING
1t was learned the commission
called Ahearn and Dundee on the
carpet, suspecting ballyhoo 3tuTt
in the complaint registered
through the local press. Dundee
maintained he was entirely sincere
and he had heard rumors to the
effect Abrams was using a special
ly prepared glove rather than the
ordinary commission approved
glove"
The commission said that at no
time had it sanctioned the use of
a specially prepared glove" and
that it has not at any time re-
ceived any protest or objection as
to the use of gloves by either or
both contestants in any bout"
I'm the future" declared
Major Brown today, ''all gloves
for the main bout will be de-
livered to the Boxing Commis-
sion for proper inspection prior
to the weighing-in of the con-
teStants and will remain in the
custody of the Boxing Commis-
sion until they are presented to
the contestants in the ring"
