One concerns a match which ended with Langford scoring a knockout in the seventh round, a story told us by the veteran Joe Woodman, who discovered Langford in Boston as a young fellow who was earning his living washing windows. We'll have to build in a little back -ground for this, primari- ly that Langford is credited with possessing the most lethal left hook in heavyweight ring history, possibly excelling, in sheer power, that of Jack Dempsey. Also. there existed in Langford's day a considerable amount of racial prejudice, wfiich fortunately has disappeared. Few white fighters. or Negro fighters either, wanted much to do with Langford and his lethal pipets unless there was a "gentleman's agreement-. which,Stm always 'kept, religiously, lest he should fight him- self oiitsof opponents. He was a man of amazing courage ,and stamina, this Langford, as well as fistic skill_ Not over five feet seven inches tall, and despite short arms,- he could , when he cut loose, flatten foes with one sweep of that abbrevi- ated left, even though he had to stand on tip -toe to land it. Langford was, probably is, one of the best -natured boxers of all time, who chuckled his way serenely along in and al of the ring. But once he was angered, and that is the sode of which we spoke. When,- recently, the famous former avyweight boxer„ Sam Langford, who was in Weymouth. N.S., became the first Canadian -born ringster to be cited in the greatest of all sports Halls of Fame, the Nelms Foundation of Los Angeles, it un- leashed a flood of reminiscence about this As Joe told it, Sam was fighting a heavyweight named Thompson. It was supposed, by agreement to go 10 good fast rounds, with neither fighter injured much, Thompson had other ideas. In the sixth round, he let go a right cross with everything he had, hit Sam on the chin, dazed him. and almost knocked him out. When they came up for the seventh round, Langford thrust out his gloved right hand, and said "Shake hands". 'Replied Thompson,, surprised: "This ain't the last round, Sam". "It is for you", answered Sam grimly. And so it was. Langford was boxing in St. Louis, one night, and his op- ponent's handlers thought to make him nervous by delaying the entry of their boxer into the ring. Sam sat on hii ring chair for nearly half -an hour, before his opponent arrived. When the missal preliminaries had birim settled and the timer was about to ring ***bell, Sam steppd to the side of the ring, held up his gloved fist. The surprised crowd fell silent. Announced Langford: "You'll pardon me, gentlemen, if 1 make this fight short. I have to catch a train". Then, with one punch, he laid his opponent low.

Charge Dismissed A man accused of careless driv- ing heard the charge against him dismissed after Magistrate D. E. Holmes. Q.C., ruled a witness hostile in police court here last Thursday. Robert Howard, of R.R. 1, Luck - now, faced the charge as the re- sult of an accident on the 10th concession of Ashfield Township in the early morning of September 23. The Crown witness, Donald Hackett. who lives on a farm near the accident scene, was ruled hos- tile after he denied parts of a statement given to police following the collision. Murray Gaunt, of R.R. 1, Luck - now, driver of the second car in- volved in the collision, said that he had been driving his car east on the concession road., When he came over the brow of a hill, he said, he saw au oncoming vehicle and twisted his car to the right, but the two cars collided. Gaunt, who received a knee injury, estim- ated damage to his car at $1,200. Constable J. L. Finegan of the County detachment, Ontario Pro- vincial Police, told of finding five empty beer bottles at the scene. Constable C. J. Parkinson said he saw the accused a few hours after the accident and could smell alco- hol on his breath. Point of im- pact of the two vehicles could not be established, he said.
