IS TURNED DOWN
Douglas County Board Treats
Matter As Joke; Resents
Criticism.

Supervisor w: r. Hallan OF the
10th ward, merly an alderman on
the city council from that dlstrlct oe-
nounced the matter of visiting nurse
in unmeasured terms before tho
board meeting Thursday afternoon.
Mr.. Hallam characterized the pro-
position as a joke and felt that the
"reformers'' were imposing upon the
pocketbooks of the taxpayers His
suggestion to "cut the nonsense from
the sessions of the board' was IN
formally endorsed, without protest.
from the board regardless OF the 1act
that one of the members carrys a
union card.
Mrs. Taylor, who has been in Su-
perior, acting as q "missionary tax
ed before the board on the needs or
a nurse to aid the county physician
in this work, andIalso mentioned the
fact that the Red Gross society would
bear portion Of the expense under
certain conditions.
DR.. Zwickey and chairman Rossiter
evidently ranking under an alleged
criticism Of the y,t efficiency Of the
county poor commissioner took ex-
ception to the suggestions Of Mrs.
Taylor.
In comment DR.. Zwickey stated
that he did mot like to have our de-
partment criticized by outsiders who
do not know the facts. The visiting
nurse idea as a general proposition
has its merits but in this instance I
do not like it. Here an individual
asks county to pay out money to an
official who would be responsible to
a private institution"
DR.. Zwickey and the board must
have known that nurse could have
been employed under the state law
without accepting the aid and pro-
visos from the Red Cross society.
The suggestion was not made, as a
recommendation. but was used as a
pretext for opposition.

Lewis-BOOntOn Battle Promises
TO Furnish Plenty of

q With excitement among the fans at
a high pitch and with both boxers
trained to the minute, the Banty

take place tonight at Troxler's Cen

more fireworks than any bout that
has been staged in Newark in some
time
There is considerable speculation
among the fans as to what method
Lewis viii use in the battle. Boon
ton says that he will start on toes at
the bell and never give Lewis a
chance to get set. Banty is expected
to be able to hold his own at close
quarters. Boonton is more of a four
round fighter. and this ought to
prove in his favor tonight.
In the semi-final bout Young Fox
will meet Young Sully. Both boys
are said to be fast, so another fast
contest ought to result. The prelimi-
naries will bring together Mickey
Perna and Louis Rose, Rabbit Long

Murray May Try for Place
on Davis Tennis Cup Team

NEW YORK, June 22-Since win
ming the Metropolitan tennis cham
pionship on Saturday, r. Lindley
Murray, the Leland Stanford Univer-
sity student, has placed himself under
the tutelage of Robert d. Wrenn,
chairman of the committee Of man
agement of the Davis cup matches for
America, and it was reported today
that the young Californian would try
for a place on the American team.
Maurice Mclaughlin, the national
champion, is of course relied upon to
repel the invaders. Bundy, the cham
pions partner in the doubles. also is
regarded as on the first line of the de-
tenders, with r. Norris Williams I'd
as the third member of the team. In
the event of any of these three play
ers meeting with an accident before
the international matches in August a
player as near their equal as possible
must be held in reserve. Tennis ex-
perts believe that Murray is being
groomed by Wrenn for this place.
