When Dillon was in his frime their claims amounted to little, for Dillon went regularly about a business of knocking off all ambitious contenders. Then Mieke came to the fore by trouncing Battling Uevmsky. and later on whipping Jack Dillon. And theji Gibbons topped it by polishing off Levinskey. The latter bout was a no decision af-
