lp in the wolds of northern Ontario lives a man once a familiar figure on sporting pages, now obsessed with the single idea of getting back enough haelth and strength to square account? with the Germans. He is Jack Monroe, once a contender for the world's heavyweight championship. Monroe was rather more or less of a jojte as a fighter. He beat some good men. but he made himself ridiculous by claiming to have knocked down Jim Jeffries. From all parts of the country went up a loud roar of laughter when Jeffries knocked him senseless in two rounds in 1901. Monroe was called the joke champion. Then he came back about twelve
