When Tex Rickard recently picked his 10 leading junior light weight contenders, he named Johnny among them. His home Is here, hence the name, Allentown Johnny Leonard. But. Johnny Leonard isn't his fam ily name. Born in Czecho slovakia, his real name is John Lucotash. He has been boxing for seven years, but prior to two years ago hadn't been “Allentown” Johnny I-eonard. known outside the city limits of his own town. At least, not as a fighter. Johnny’s parents were poor and Johnny's father died a few weeks after the family's arrival in America. When he was 14 years old he went to work packing cement bags in one of the many cement mills near his home. Two years later he hired out as an undertaker's ^apprentice, and has beens working at the trade ever since. He has an embalmer’s license, and can hold his own with the best in the embalming profession. r Indoor Track Meet Entries ^ __ — ■ ■ H :<M) P. M.—4.1-Yunl High lllirillrs.

With but seven men In uniform and over half of them subs, Mar quette ripped into Carroll, the team that had beaten Marquette’s regu lars two weeks before, 36 to Jfi, ami won from the clever Wakeslias five, 10 to 17, in a brilliant battle. That same team will come to Omaha Saturday to play Creigh ton. At first Coach Murray was tempted to wire to Athletic Direct or Scliabiuger that rather than to foist off a buncli of subs on a big Omaha crowd, Marquette would rather cancel the game. ^Jtut in the Carroll game they were far from '‘dubs,’’ as Murray changed his mind and will invade tttfi Hilltop rninp next Saturday night with a bare seven men, lint men who will go the limit to beat Creighton. Fortunately, "Big Bill" Curran, last year's center, came back onto the squad last week and he should take Dllwog's position without any diffi culty. Dick Crane, football center.

WILL POSITIVELY BE ON SALE HERE ) _ Amazing Treatment Declared To Be Different ^From Anything Ever Before Known—Results Accomp lished Are Amazing. What is probably one of the most important announcements made tn recent years to the people of Omaha is the definite assurance that the sensational new medical discovery, Karnak. will be distributed to the public through one of Omaha's lead ing drug firms. The final decision to place this re markable medicine within the reach of the public of this section was made late last night after lengthy con ferences extending over several days heween L. M. Carroll, representing the big corporation who control the distribution of Karnak In America, and leading druggists of Omaha. Although the entire country Is clamoring for supplies of tills master health builder, and the huge labora tories are taxed to the limit, Mr. Car roll was induced to give Omaha pref erence after he was convinced of the great outstanding need of this section for the medicine. Only One I-oral Agency. Several prominent local druggists, taking advantage of the presence here of Mr. Carroll, are making strong ef forts to secure the valuable Karnak agency, but It appears that only one firm ran have the distribution. It Is understood that It is the policy of Karnak. Inc., to place the dis tribution of Karnak In the hands of only one thoroughly reliable and cen trally located agent In each town, and the award usually goes to the leading druggist in each city. "This policy protects both -the pub lic and Karnak against imitation and substitution," explained 'Str. Carroll. As a result the keenest rivalry exists throughout the drug trade in Omaha and competition for the Kar nak contract is at the highest pitch. Mr. Carroll admitted that with so many up-to-date and enterprising drug firms the situation in Omaha pre sented a very difficult problem when It comes to awarding the Karnak Agency. Express Shipment Coming. However, a rush express order has already heen wired into the Karnak Laboratories and a sufficient quanti ty of the celebrated medicine will be here to be distributed to local people as quickly as the Omaha agency is closed. Karnak. it will he remembered. Is a scientific vegetable preparation, de veloped from the theory that a targe part of human suffering and weaken irg disease is caused by a catarrhal inflammation of stomach and intes tiers, affecting tbe liver, kidneys and other vital organs. As a result of rigid tests. Karnak was so phenomenal In bringing re lief from suffering and restoring health, strength and energy that it quickly became the sensation cf America • Results \rr Amaiiug. Karnak, Ine., secured the dis tributing rights for the master medicine and a few n ontbs ago placed it on sale in certain territories.
