One OF the most interesting ring
battles ever bulled off in New York

between Jack Dempsey and Johnnie

The men fought on a Long Island
beach on the Sound, with kid gloves
under London prize ring rules. Demp-
sey was middleweight champion. but
Reagan. q pupil of Prof Mike Dom
ovan, was considered to have good
chance to win the title. The match
was for 81 900 side and the cham

beach early in the morning, but the
tide soon swamped the spot. although
il was not until the water was above
knee depth that the fighters agreed
TO the selection of a drier spot. The
ring was moved, but Reagan objected
that the ground was too hard, and
third spot on the turf was chosen.
Eight rounds had then been fought,
and they were fairly even. but after
that Dempsey held the upper hand,
and in the forty-fifth round Reagan's

Square and flat bats were at one
time used in baseball, but the sphere
has always been round.
Some ball players are now just
rounding into form-and some ice
skaters will be at their best next July.
Among the professional baseball
players are men who are stars in vari-
Gus forms of athletics, but jumping
has quite gone out.
About the only way to be sure Of
retaining ones amateur standing is
to possess a big fortune, Nobody ever
accused John d. Rockefeller of being
a professional golfer.
Carl Sawyer Of Los Angeles, the
rising young comedian who travelled
with the Washington club last sea-
sen, admits that he didn't hit very
much in the American League. but
adds that he hits thousand in the
Chicken League. Oh you Carl!
A New York man who recently cele.
brated his ninety-third birthday says
he not only plays golf, but that he
played baseball last summer. The

simon pure amateur, so it won't be
worth while for Minneapolis to try
to land him.

FOR WOMEN'S DIVISION
IN LABOR DEPARTMENT
House Committee Recommends Pass.
age of Representative
Casey's Bill.

The committee on labor of the House
of Representatives, to which was re-
ferred a bill introduced by Representa-
tive Casey of Pennsylvania at the last
session of Congress, to create a wom-
ans division in the Department of La
Dor, has made Il report on the bill and
recommends that it be passed without
amendment. The committee points out
that the bill is designed TO create a di-
vision charged with the duty of ascer-
tanning and presenting the facts con
cerning the work which ge-earning
women of the country are doing, what
they are getting for it. the conditions
under which it is being done and its
effect upon the health of such women.
The need of such a division is obvi-
Gus. declares the committee. and rest
mainly upon the following PROPOSE
tions:
The growing army of wage-e earning
women creates problems in the indus
trial worlG of far-reaching Importance
to the public as a whole:
Solutions of these problems can be
effected only through the continuous
and constructive studies which recog-
nize not only the sinilarities but the
essential differences in conditions sur
rounding Wage-earning women and
earning men;
The record of twenty-five years shows
that without statutory existence the
work of a division designed to ascer-
tain the facts concerning women in In
dustry cannot be continuous and CO.
herent because it's resources have been
uncertain. its activities intermittent
and its very existence a matter of
chance.

Letters Commencing Movement.
Among the letters commencing the
movement is one from a government
official, as follows:
Terence V. Powlerly chief of the di-
vision of information of the Department
of Labor. says:
Give the children clean pictures such
as may amuse them. and they will point
I the way for clean pictures for grown ups.
From what ] have observed, | am led
to believe that the producers of film plays
are now wedding out that which appeals
to the morbid taste of lovers of scandal
and worse. Their desire is to give the
people what they want To establish any
other censorship than that prescribed by
the people themselves would shut the
doors of our picture theaters to all but
the well-to-do. The poor are just as
competent to decide what is best for them
as others are. and they need no meddling
| finger to point the moral path for them
to walk in. You. in your struggle to give
the children the best in pictures are
paving the. way for the right kind of CEN
sorship.
Mr.. Powderly emphasizes the need Of
clean pictures for immigrant children by
saying:
II can conceive of no better start
on the road to what we call Ameri-
caniZation than to present the best we
have to offer to the children who come
up from the steerage, open-eyed. active
Drained and eager to know the coun-
try as it is. In doing this you will
accomplish wonders. for, no matter
how many different lands the juvenile
audience may represent, the moving
picture speaks a language they can all
understand"
