MANY LITTLE STUDENTS
ARE COCAINE FIENDS
Philadelphia Boy in Confession
Bares Conditions in the
Public Schools

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 2s.-By the
confession of Edward Lee, 10 year
old vender of cocaine appalling con-
ditions are suspected in certain pub
lie schools, and the board of education
is making a stringent investigation.
Cocaine has been sold to students,
both boys and girls, ranging from II
to IT years old. How far the evil has
spread is not yet known, but accord
ing to the Lee boy the victims are
many. He implicated another boy,
Michael Larkins, and quantities of the
drug were found in the stockings of
both the boys,
s'There are other schools, too,r said
Lee, where cocaine is sold to the kids
during recess. 1t is got at a house on
North Tenth street, and boys are MAX
ing lots of money at it,"
He said that it was sold in and 10
cent lots and that he had taught the
boys and girls how to snuff it into
their noses.

WILL NOT SANCTION
PROMOTERS MEET
Automobile Trade Feels That
Events Planned by Outsiders
Should Not Be Supported
By K. K. PHOmmedieu

A movement is on foot among the
automobile dealers of Los Angeles to
acquire Ascot park for automobile
speed contests. The fact that an east
ern promoter has been trying to pull
off "a hour contest so as to gather
in the money of the people of the
southern part of the state has caused
the dealers to make this move. A. Z.
Hunter of the Osen & Hunter auto
mobile company, which handles the
Mitchell cars in this territory, said yes
terday that he had received word that
the promoter was coming to San Fran
cisco just as soon as he made a clean
UP in Los Angeles and would try to pull
off Fl hour race here. Hunter believes
that the dealers would not give a sane
ton for the event. for if there is any
money to be made out of the event it
should go to the dealers who make the
attraction possible

SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL


HOQUIAM, Wash, Oct 2S.-Jimme
Butler of Aberdeen last night defeated
Eddie Murphy of San Francisco in the
fifth round of a scheduled 20 round con
test at Aberdeen. For three rounds
the battle was spectacular, Butler
showing great class. Murphy was the
aggressor, but Buffers wonderful foot
work kept him away from the San
Francisco boys right swings. In the
fourth Butler reached Murphy's jaw
with a hard left and followed up with
series of rights to the stomach. Muir
ply took the count in the fourth and
was all but out when the gong sounded
In the fifth Butler pressed his man and,
with a right TO the jaw, fioored him.
Murphy arose, but was groggy and
Butler soon again put him down for
the count. Again Murphy got up only
to receive a succession of blows to the
jaw. He was game to the core and
tried to continue, but Referee Harry
Davis stopped the MILL as Murphy was
helpless. Butler showed remarkable
form and his blows carried much force.
Murphy's condition was poor, but he
met 2 better man.
Bill Smith of Hoquiam and Johnny
Allen of Butte fought a great preIim-
mary Allen won in the fourth. The
preliminary was a slashing affair and
aroused great. excitement Allen is to
be matched here with a good light
