L. F. Guerre, commander of Magic
City Post No. "a, opened the meeting
in the reception room of the Y. w. c.
A. with short address, telling of the
purpose of the meeting.
"Since this post was organized two
years ago." said Commander Guerre,
sit has been our intention to form a
Ladies Auxiliary as soon as condi-
tons warranted, and now it seems
the time is ripe. The State Conven-
ton meets here this summer and
when the delegates and visitors ar
rive-and it is estimated that at least
a thousand will conceive are anx-
ious that the Bogalusa ladies take
their places along with the men to
show them good time in the Boga-
lusa way. In connection with the
auxiliary, let me state here, that in
my estimation the Woman's Auxiliary
of The American Legion will in years
to come rank with the Daughters off
the American Revolution and the
United Daughters of the Confederacy
and Bogalusa's post must of neces-
sity be in the front with the rest"
Mrs. w. A. Porteous, state organ
izer, and one of New Orleans best
known club women, was introduced
to the assembled ladies and in a |
short address said: Everyone |

The state officers were: Judge,
Mrs. lack Lee; prosecuting attorney,
Miss 'UOlomb; sheriff, Ruby Moak;
accused, Miss Ethel Mitchell; defend
ants attorney, Mrs. Norris; jury,
Miss Ruth .Voss, Mrs. Everett and
Miss Grace Gayer.
During the trial the accused es-
capped and had to be caught by the
sheriff. The jury was hard to find.
as several selected were so positive
the accused was guilty that they
could not serve. Several were rela-
tives and might show partiality. The
jury selected had never read of this
drive or anything about this young
lady refusing to pay the pledge, or
had evey ever seen the accused.

Johnny Curtin Is Master Of Burns

The fast battle put up by Irish Johnny Curtin in which he won the decision over Jimmy Burns last night at the Arena show last night, led many to the opinion that Curtin will have an opportunity to carrying oH the bantam title some time in the future. Curtin has a faculty of mix ing in his right and left jabs and displaying science andS agility in avoiding punishment from his op- ponent
 The Curtin-BurnS bout was fast from the sound of the gong. Burns showed his admirers here that he has learned considerable about the box ing game since leaving Bridgeport, and he also impressed upon them he still has lot more of ring knowl- edge to acquire before he> can be seriously regarded as championship timber.
 Burns was seen at his best in the erst four rounds but after he had travelled that part of the route Cur tins punches began to tell on the ex-Bridgeporter and Curtin forced badly cut up in the countenance, but he won the admiration of the crowd oy his gameness- Curtin's great de- 1ense prevented any harm from pretty fight all the way-no lack of action and the fans went home sat tsf1ed-

The boxers started to rush their pro- gram through in the first round and some larruping exchanges occurred at the end of the session, but he had a game heart and remained the full schedule, taking some terrific pun ishment from Darcey. Dance show ed his ability to hit, but his wa11ops were steamless and inflicted practical ter the show there was some talk of rematching the pair for the next show to be staged by George Mul1igan in Waterbury.

 Young Luby gave an excellent ac- count of himself as substitute for Joe Hall in his go with Johnny Will Hams, the clever New Yorker. Luby raised the enthusiasm of the fans right off the reel when he sent Will hand sock to the jaw. Williams was a surprised lad and thereafter was more careful in his activities, Luby put up great fight although Referee Terry Lee handed the verdict to Will Hams, while many of the local boys admirers entertained the belief that Luby was entitled to a draw.
