thing on the local pugilistic bill OF
fare is the Chavaz-Dclmont battle OF
is rounds at the popular Br oadway
fight club tomorrow night. This
bout promises to be one of tie best
attractions the c. A. c. manat;ement
has ever staged and should prove
fast enough to suit any Gro wa or
fans in the country. The bo.'s arc
so evenly matched that there ls not
enough difference between them TO
notice. They are the same height.
the same weight and their actions IN
the ring are almost identical. II
Belmont holds decisions over some
of the best featherweights in the
south and in three years OF hgfrtlng,
everything the promoters In the Die
cities throughout the Dixie circuit
could spring on him. the little ltal-
ian has waded through and come out
with colors untouched. Besid'S be-

The championship title has long
been his one ambition, and ne almost
had his hooks into 1t on several Occa-
sious. His showing in the coming
bout with Chavez will be one more
step toward the big time circuit. The
way both boys are working shows
there is going to be something doing
all the way.
Chavez is going after his sparring
partners like house atire, but as
they are all big men, white hope size.
they have n good chance to stand the
gan. as Kenny is hitting hard and
often.
He takes on Jack Thompson. a
heavyweight, for three slam-bang
rounds ami then changes onto Mike
Shubert. who fights men Jack Gey-
er's size, which calls for 200 pounds.
This is an innovation in training
for feather to use heavyweights
for sparring partners. and Benny
throws some awful wallops into the
big fellows stats.
belmont has smaller men to work
out ON and seems to be going in for
speed. He boxes three rounds every
afternoon with Jimmy Hanlon and
Slim Thompson, and the boys Eut up
a fast exhibition that suits the fans
right down to the ground.
Besides the boxing both boys take
a fast whirl out OF the skipping ropc

fresh as daisies.

SCHOOL CENSUS
IS COMPLETED
Increase in Number of Children
Is Anticipated

The enumerators recently appointed
by the board of education of the Han
cock high school to take the census of
school children have completed their
work and have reported to Superin-
tendcnt Lee of the public schools. 1t is
cXuccted that the number will be much
larger than that of any previous year
and this is borne out by the fact that
the schools have been crowded for the
entire year. 1t will be impossible to
give out the total until the figures
are forwarded to Lansing.
II is expected that the primary
s. hool fund will be increased consider
ably over that received i'm former
years this being due To the increase in
the number of children in the city.
For every name sent To the state capt.
tol approximately 81 will be received
from the primary fund.
Other School Notes.
Arrangements are being made for
the commencement program. Hon. O..

or save a life" says the bulletin,
which states that the one action of
first importance in the treatment of
the drowned, suffocated or electrically
shocked is to restore breathing.
To resuscitate the drowned, the
bulletin says: Lose no time in re-

How to Keep From Drowning.
How To keep from drowning is ex-
planned in the bulletin as follows: "To
keep from drowning it is advisable
but not necessary, to know how to
swim. The human body in the water
weighs little more than pound. SO
that one finger placed upon piece Of
board, an oar or a paddle, will easily
keep the head above water and the
other hand can be used to propel the
body. 1t is all important to
keep cool head, and the mouth clos
