putting q crimp In the boxing
game at Seattle. Declaring that
the game Is crooked, without max
ing any investigation or attempt
ing to catch the Crooks" he has
given out orders that no smokers
shall be staged by any organiza-
tion other than an athletic club,
incorporated under the laws of
che state, and having a gymnas-
ium and employing an instructor
for the same.
It's rather a drastic ruling. 1t
means that all but three of the
Seattle clubs must quit staging
shows. The Elks, the Seattle Ath-
letic club, and the Austin & Salt
club are the only ones that can
now stage shows.
Seattle fans are up in arms
against the ruling, because
they say there has been moth
ing to indicate that the box
ing game Is crooked there,
and all recent shows have
been well worth the money.

ART SCHOCK will referee
all bouts. The Eagles have
decided to resume the use of
ringside judges tonight, a
practice that was abandoned
two years ago after many
unpopular decisions we're
made. The stencil of the Al
Norton-Joe Bonds decision,
when ringside judges gave
Bonds q victory after he had
been badly beaten, still sticks
in the minds Of local fans.
The referee Is in the center
OF the ring to act as judge,
and II he can't be trusted to
do fair judging, someone
should be selected who can.

WITH FIVE snappy boxing
matches, including two Northwest
title bouts, Tacoma Eagles will
usher In the 1917 winter fight
season this evening at Tahoma
hall. Both main events are for
six rounds, making the show more
interesting than in previous years
when all bouts were restricted 10
four cantos.
The eyes Of Northwestern fight
fans are conferred on the Muff
Bronson-Chet Neff battle. Neff Is
. Seattle boy who has been fight
ing several years. He has cleaned
MP everything In the Northwest,
and was only prevented from win
ming the coast lightweight title by
little Joe BENJAMIN, who had an
edge on him in their match this
year in California. Bronson is
19-year-old school boy of Port
land with reputation for flashy,
brilliant boxing that may take him
TO the big fight centers of the
east this year.
Both boys have been seen In
Tacoma several times, but they
have never met each other before.
Fans can be assured of real
scrap when they enter the ring.
JOE HARRAHAN of Seattle,
claimant of the Northwest fea-
therweight crown, meets Weldon

sure to fly when they start swap

What is the matter with our univer- sites is that all the students are sehooboys, whereas it is of the very essence of university education that ' Y should he men, writes George ,,rnard Shaw. The function of uni verSity is not to teach things that can now be taughJ as well or better by university extension lecturers or by private tutors or modern correspond- enee classes with gramophenes. We go to them to be socialiZed; to acquire the hall mark of communal training :; to become citizens of the world in stead of inmates of the enlarged rab- bit hutches we call homes; to learn manners and become uarhallengeable ladies and gentlemen.

Growing 2 Character.

Character is what you are. Repu- tation is what folks think you are. Sometimes they are so well balanced that you can't tell one from the oth- CT. says Grit. But more often the one is libel on the other Folks exalt virtues that do not exist and condemn foIlies that are purely subjective and personal. Much depends on who re- ports you. Friends are always chari- table and interpret our lives to best ad- vantage. Enemies can see no good in Us and report as they see. So repu- tation may flatter or eondemn. Not so with character. This is something beyond external observation. It is the life itself as lived amidst its motives and obstacles. Few people can know it's real value, for even you do not al ways know just what you are capable of being until the emergency demands display your worth. What you are in the face of severe testing is character.
