lit-calling old time lillppfllillgsdn sport proves interesting, reading a1 's (ind herewith is a summary man Jim Flynn's work in the ring as recounted by Billy lloche. a famous referee. Flynn. it will be remembered, was the inaii who knocked out Jack Dempsfll‘ Just when the "Mann-sac Miuler“ was embarking on his

CE

mcteroic ring career.

Fireman Jim Flynn never won a title but he gave a couple of ilfélVlWVfiigill. champions their toilsghcst fights and goes down in ring history us the only man who

knocked out Jack Dempsey.

Starting in 1901 Flynn fought them all over a stretch of 22 years, reaching his peak in 1911, the year promoters were frantically seeking a challenger to de-thronc Jack Johnson. It was the white hope

era. Fireman Jlm knocked out aspiring contenders with such ncatness and dispatch he became known as the “Destroyer of Hopes."

Flynn was nearing the end of his career when he met Jack D-impsey Just embarking on his, in Salt Lake City, Feb. 13, 1911.

Flynn ducked Dempsey? lead and crossed a right to t e chm that dropped the Manassa Mauler on his back. As Jack bounced _to his feet Flynn, standing over him with right cocked, dropped him again and again. After the sixth kliCtltildfJlvn Dempsey didn't get up

tine.

This signal triumph meant lit; tie to Flynn at the time. He hadn t sampled iron Mike. Dcmpseys po- tent left hook. as Jack hadn't land- ed a. blow in the fight. Indeed. there was quite a. bit of eyebrow lifting among the rlngworms, who

expressed the belief that the af-

fuir was a barney.

A year and a day later — Feb. 1~l. i918, at Ft. Sheridan-it was entirely different. Dempsey hit Flynn the hardest punch he ever received and the lights went out mi the Pueblo Fireman shortly af- t.-r the bell started the first round.

Jim Flynn, 5 ft. 9 l-Z, 180 in fighting trim, was born Dec. 24. 1879 in I-Ioboken, N. J. His real name was Andrew Hnymes.

Young Haymes took the name of Jim Flynn when he entered the ring. In those days most fighters and actors assumed other names for professional purposes.

The family moved to Pueblo. Col. and Jini took to railroading.

The political significance of the Russian victories is lncalculablc. They will give the Soviet Union the strongest possible hand when the time comes to build a new Poland and, with the United States and Britain, to settle the fate of Germany.

Already at Chelln in the liber- ated part of German-occupied Poland a government inimical to tbs Polish exile regime in London is functioning under the Soviet Aegis and with the support of the pro-Soviet Polish army of 100,000 men.

Around its captured German Generals Russia has built up a substantial anti - Nazi element which may give a hand in tho ad- ministration of German affairs if the Red Army reaches Germany before the American and British allies. There is no free Ger- man organisation of comparable strength in Britain.
