Tho form was stripped clean.

the other picture, like the head, was

Column rules were adjusted, and
at 1 o'clock all was m readiness for
the returns. The linotype operator
was on the Job.- Tlie pressman came
In and slipped on .his coveralls,
started a careful once-over of the

Then llio fighters entered the ring
and tho wire announced the opening

' In the Herald composing room this
was the signal to close up all' other
columns, leaving space in the middle
of the pngo for the fight by rounds.
Round by round it came antl'-as
fast as the copy was received' the
linotype machines handled It. Fol
lowing tho final round came a "lead

Herald press. ' Three' minutes later
the newsboys were yelling on the
streets,! nnd a few minutes more
and a selling crew with a bundle of
papers waB on the way to the ro

The directing genius of the sell

local boxer, and his selling ability
was amply, demonstrated.
Triumph of Service
The Herald has achieved another
triumph of service. -

Roxing Game Injured
Such cheap spirit, such lack of
snortsmnnshlp, explains why the
boxing gnme that Btarted so woll
hero a' few months ago is suffering a
Bteady decline. Interest, In the sport
that Is pleasured only by the ring of
the cash register, cannot promote
many successful contests. ,-. :
