face, leaving his body-the most
vulnerable part-exposed.
There are several methods of
defense, some being peculiar to
individuals, but the three most
important are blocking, ducking
and sidestepping.
To block blow, use the right
arm, when possible. Always re-
member this arm is mainly for
defense and the left chiefly for
delivering punches.
When blow is started and
you mean to block it, shoot the
right arm up so it catches your
opponents punching arm, under
the forearm. This lifts his arm
from its course and swings him
around trife. Watch this shift
ing action. 1t usually puts a man
in position for you to deliver an
effective punch.
Keen sight is necessary in
blocking, for you must figure in
stantly where the blow is aimed,
especially if your opponent uses a
punch like the famous "cork-
screw" which seems to be aimed
for one place, only to land at an
other. 1t will be hard to judge
blows at first, but the knack win
soon come to you.
When defending yourself watch
for chance to land on your man.
Practically every time he swings
he leaves some sort of an OPEN
ing, and you must learn to block
and punch simultaneously.
Sidestepping is fine art. Many
who are shiftv. use If often in

defense is used chiefly to avoid
.rushes..
Unless you sidestep a rushing,
boxer you're liable to get into
trouble. Of course, you can stand
up and meet a rush, but the
chances are against you, for the
rush carries speed and when a
rushing boxer lands you surely
feel it for a long time.
By sidestepping a rush you
gain an advantage, for when the
rusher swings and misses, he is
off balance a fraction of a second,
which is the time for you to get
home few punches.
Sidestepping is accomplished by
placing the toe Of the right foot
in a direct line back of the left
heel. In sidestepping to the right
the right foot is carried quickly to
the right. To sidestep to the left
the left foot is carried to the left.
These movements properly exc
cuted incline the body enough to
permit blows to slip by.
Duckingis used to dodge blows
aimed at the head. When you
duck, do so quickly and recover
just as fast-and never fail to
keep your jaw covered against an
uppercut.
Always box with the stomach
drawn in. The stomach is vital
point and a punch there will help
finish boxer. In drawing in the
stomach you naturally assume
crouching pose, which is ideal for

Westgard Party
 Late to Phoenix

The Arizona Democrat of yesterday says:
 Owing to circumstances not fully un derstood here, the party of trans-con- tinental tourists headed by A. J. West gard, did not come to Phoenix from Globe Sunday. They delayed their coming until today, (Monday) and word was received this morning by the board of trade that they had positively left the mining camp and would reach the capital this afternoon.
 Accordingly a welcoming car was sent by the board to Mesa, to meet the autoists there.
 They will go from here to Grand Canyon by railroad, leaving their chauffeurs here, and then returning here by rail to continue their auto journey.

Ask Supervisors to
 Recognize North Route
he Imperial Enterprise says:

The Imperial Enterprise says:
 Last Monday a delegation from Brawley and Imperial appeared before the Board of Supervisors at Fl Centro, calling their attention to communion tions received from the executive con- 1nittee ot the various chambers of commerce in the Coachella valley.
 These communications called at tention to the desirability of interest ing the state highway commission ill Investigating the route from Riverside county down through Beaumont pass, or following one of two routes north of Salton sea to Imperial Junction, then to Brawley, Imperial or Fl Centro, or from Mecca west of Salton sea, through No. 8 and through Brawley Imperial and El Centro. Advocates of these proposed routes declare them to be the most economical from the standpoint of easy grades, access D building material, and water along the entire route, and the all important fact that this route will cater to the great majority of residents of Imperial County.
 Strange as it may appear, the only proposed route seriously considered heretofore, has been the San Diego route via Campo
 Advocates of the northern route maintain that the valley people wil secure some 65 miles of state highway to Imperial county against some 15 miles from the West Side Main canal to Fl Centro.

Redwood Secretary
(From Tuesdays Examiner)

There was a meeting of the Repuhli- can candidates at the office of Chair man Clymer, last night at 500, and unanimously elected George Redwood campaign secretary.
 The meeting also devoted some time to ways and means, but the meet ing was especially noted for it's har- mony and good fellowship and entire confidence in Chairman Clymer.
 Chairman Clymer and Secretary Redwood will immediately begin an aggressive campaign, and from the en- thusiasm exhibited last night, and tho harmony exhibited, there should be no trouble at all in electing the entire county Republican ticket and carrying Yuma county by big majority for the Republican state ticket.

For State Senator

O. F. Townsend, the Republican can- didate for state senator, has been a resident of Arizona for many years.
 His experience and knowledge of ir- rigation, of mining, of the stock and lumber interests, his experience as a heavy taxpayer, as a public official, etc., all stamps him as the ideal man for a legislator, not only for Yuma County, but for all Arizona.
 Added to this is the fact that he is we'll and favorably known all over the whole county, as well as in the cities of the territory.
 His record as business man and as man among men, is without a stain of any kind.
 His election from Yuma county should be unanimous.
