The Illinois legislature is expected
to take some action on the boxing
bill some time this week and Chi
cago fans report that there are great
hopes in the Windy City OF the bill
passing. AT a recent show, held for
the benefit of the solons, most of
the lawmakers present expressed
themselves in favor of boxing bouts
conducted properly, The vote Of
each of them for the passage of the
measure is expected to be favorable.
Iowa boxing bugs" are in hopes
of beating the Illinois bunch to it in
a scrapping way, for the Iowa legis-
lature also has a boxing bill up for
consideration and the probabilities
of an early passage are bright. The
Iowa legislators are crowd of gem
uine sportsmen, hunters, fishermen
and some old ball players. 1t is sup-
posed that most of them are red
blooded enough to like the boxing
game when properly governed.
When the wrestling followers
crowd into the Auditorium next Fri
day, they will be certain of seeing
one of the best shows ever presented
to the Omaha public, Jack Lewis,
the promoter, has realized an ambi-
ton in staging an all-star show.
Every contestant is worthy of a
main attraction and every match will
be to a finish. The first two will be
