This morning at the meeting Of the
associated student body of the Uni
yersity of Idaho resolution express
Ing sincere regret over the untimely
death of Vernon Lowell Henry, ant
providing for the incorporation of the
resolution in the minutes of the stu
dent body and for sending copy to
the bereaved parents was introduced
and passed. The resolution is as fol-
lows:
1t is with deep grief that we,
the students of the University of
Idaho, have heard of the sudden
death of one of our number, Vernon
Lowell Henry. We have always
held him in the highest esteem as
a student and as a man. His fu-
ture seemed most promising. In
his classes he was a leader; and
among his associates he was
rightly regarded as a man of
sterling character and kindly and
generous disposition.
We desire it to be known to his
grief-stricken parents that we
share their sorrow, and to COM
fort them with the assurance that
the life of their son, short as it
was, has not been in vain; that
his manly character and upright
purpose will help us to direct our
own lives towards that individual
Improvement and social better
ment we all desire to attain
Be it resolved, therefore, that
this expression of our friendship
and our sorrow be spread upon the
minutes of this meeting and that
copy be sent to his parents.

if he was hurt he said:
Injuries Prove Fatal
No. L guess my leg is hurt

the flow of blood stopped. While
they were rendering first aid two of

ToDAY's ANNIVERSARIES.

Robert Hoe. inventor of the printing press that bears his name was born in Leicestershire. England, 133 years ago today. He was an ingenius me- chanic and when he came to America in 1908 he joined his hrother-fn-law, Peter Smith. in establishing a factory for the manufacture of the hand press. Hoe made great improvements in printing processes. and the Hoe press was soon known all over the world. When his health failed in 1892 he turned over the business to his son, Robert Marsh Hoe. The founder of the Hoe firm died in 1883, but Richard Hoe, with his brothers, Robert and Peter, showed even greater inventive genius than their father. In 1S47 they perfected the Lightning presss' for printing newspapers. This press. Of the type-revo1ving style, was a great improvement over anything previously used. and it was adopted by the Lon don Times and other English Journals as well as by the leading American newspapers. The Hoe twe-eyiinder press of that period attained the amaz- ing speed Of 15,00o copies an hour, Richard Hoe subsequently invented the web-perfeeting press, which was as much of an improvement over the earlier style as that had been ever it's predecessors,

Thirty-three rounds of boxing bringing together some of the best boys who have ever donned a glove in Bridgeport arena, with a mixture of new talent, is on tap at the Casino State street, tonight. Each one of the three rounds enumerated ~- has all the ear-marks of a classic, and if the boys battle true to form, the card will be a big success.
 Neither Eggers nor Hughes need any introduction to the local sporting public. The former is the boy who apnihilated Young MacAuliffe last winter. He Is a slugger. from the word goa two-handed fighter, dan gerous against any man in his class in the world today. Hughes, though not the fighter his opponent is, possesses greater science, and should give the Brook1ynite great ruin for honors.

 make a good match. Both, though of wide experience, are still "comers'' in the fstic game, and working hard to build up their regulations.
 The curtain-raiser brings together the brother of the famous Joe Shu- grue, and Al Ritchie, a promising youth, who already holds the feath- erweight title of Rhode Island, and covets that of Connecticut.
 Matchmaker Billy Hogan announced this morning that all was in readiness for the exhibitions tonight. The ring was erected last evening, and all the seats are in place and numbered. It just remains for the fans to fill them. The wetghing-in process will take place at the Alpine hotel this after non at o'clock. Trainers of all the contestants assure that their boys are within the weight, and that there will be no hitch on this score. Billy Ho- gan himself has kept in touch with every boxer on his card for the past two weeks, and asserts that he knows personally that the boys have been observing strict training rules. and will step into the ring in as nearly perfect fighting trim as possible.
