The fight card promoted by thelocal aerie of the Eagles, which wasstaged at the American Legion com -munity building on Saturday eve--ning brought outbnly a small crowddespite the fact that the committeehad worked hard to cive the resi- -dents of this section a good balancedbill. In the arrangements of thefight the committee met with a num-ber of disappointments in last minuteprostitutions that were made neces- -sai by Illness and particularly Inthe main event of the fight

The main event was scheduled tobe between Joe Roper, hard hitting.Omaha bxoer and Frank Gozeman ofSan Antonio, Texas, but a few hoursbefore the time for the battle Gozeman received the message announcing the death of a child and hadto forego the battle with Joe. Thesubstitution was made of Sandy Mc-Dowell, well known boxer of FortCrook, but who was a poor foe forBattling Joe as the soldier boxer wassent to the land of dreams in thesecond round with a fast one to thejaw and the fight was all over., .rt i it i t Ixwptr uau iucj-ruwe- u uamy outclass--eu ana in me opening rouna oaaSandy on the mat taking the countwhen the bell terminated the round.

The feature battle of the card wasthat given by Smoky Joe Smogye,146, and Steve Mickna, 145, both ofOmaha. TheBe boys fought a drawhere on a previous bill and in thefight Saturday Mickna showed muchImprovement over his former styleand was winner of the decision atthe hands of Referee Harry Reedand a well deserved award as theclever little boxer had made a bril-liant and fast showing against themore seasoned Smoky Joe Micknatook the aggressive in the fight andall through the six rounds kept Joebusy In keeping from the receivingend of the glove of Steve, ..T - J 1 ft.AAMH Tin.1r"UI,u uoul JTrVZ.BirdBell of Decatur and Jack Turner i

of Omaha. waB a very much one ided event as far as BirdBell was concerned as he had Turner bleedingprofusely and throughout the fightBirdsell was forcing the fighting andin the sixth and final round hadTurner down for the count of eightbut the Omaha boxer recovered andstaid out the battle but was clearlythe loser.

The four round events featuredin the first "Kid" Dempsey, soldierboxer and "Kid" Wooders, of Omaha,and In which Wooders inflicted agreat deal of punishment on the sol-dier and had him marked up as theresult of the fight, through his su-perior boxing tactics, but he was un-able to develop an aggressive thatwould win and the decision was forDempsey.

John Smogye, younger brother ofSmoky Joe had little trouble in an-nexing his bout in the opening roundof the fight with Mickey Powers andJohn with smashing right and lefthad Powers down three times in theopener when Referee Reed awardedthe decision to Smogye on the knock-out.

The presentation of the Danforthtwins. Jack and Lucille, proved areal treat as these clever five yearold kiddies gave a burlesque of thenow famous "slow count" of theDempsey-Tunne- y fight at Chicago.The role of referee was taken byJack Barry and the trio made a veryclever presentation of the fight. Theaudience showed their appreciationof the act of the little folks by agenerous purse.

The clever little Danforth twinsare to appear at the Rltz theatrein this city on Tuesday and Wednes-day and the many friends here whoenjoyed the show at the fight willhave the opportunity of enjoying afurther treat at the theatre.

State Boxing Commissioner IraVoorhls was present at the boutwith a number of other Lincoln fightpromotors and the commissionerhandled the inspection of the fightand was well pleased with the man-ner In which it was carried out.

Baking CompaniesWin Suit--

for InjunctionDistrict Court Holds Ordinanoe of

Weeping Water Is Invalid andCity Is Restrained.

From Von day DatiThe hearing of the application of

the Omaha baking companies for aninlunction arainst the city of Weep--ing. water to restrain the city fromthe enforcing of an occupation taxordinance covering the compell ingof the payment of a tax of 150 peryear for the operation of bread trucksin the city, was held today and resulted in a victory for the bakingcompanies.

The court held that the ordinancewas invalid and that the city wouldbe restrained from enforcing the ordinance against the baking companies and accordingly the petitionof the Omaha baking companies forthe injunction was sustained.

This matter of outside business in- -Jterests trucking products and goodsinto tne various towns over me Biaieis leading to the adoption of manyoccupation tax ordinances that seekto add a heavy fee for the operationof truck and for the selling andpeddling of goods in the corporativelimits of the towns.

This city has an ordinance thatsets the tax on the bread trucks at$150 per year but which has neverbeen ruled on as pet by the courts,altho an action has been pending forsome time on appeal from the lowercourts, the action beiag held up whilethe case of the baking companiesagainst the city of. Fremont has beenpending in the supreme court wherea decision would probably set a pre-

cedent for ordinances in cities of thesame class.
