Women of the Minnesota Legion
Auxiliary will hold their annual con-
vention in Winona August 1928.
State President Helen Hughes Hiel-
scher, who just returned from a visit
there, says, IF there ever were doubts
about the success of our convention
they were swept away on that visit.
The enthusiasm, the hospitality, the
interest, the energy and the team
work of the Winona Legion and Aux
iliary, combined with the natural
beauties of the place, make the COM
fort and pleasure of the delegates
assured"
'"This bulletin is our last as pres
ident and secretary of the Minnesota
Legion Auxiliary. 1t is our hail for
the convention at Winona and our
farewell to the splendid women who
toiled so faithfully with us, so kindly,
so helpfully. 1t is our farewell and
our Godspeed to the Units that never
disappoint US. 1t is our token of
gratitude to the women who sprang
to the assistance of our sick and
disabled soldiers, and who under the
blessing of God, made it possible to
relieve many of their most urgents
wants." reads the July bulletin Just
issued by DIR. Hielscher and Mrs.
Denman of Mankato, the Legion
Auxiliary state officers.
w. L. Mollison, E. A. Walsh and
A. H. Vernon, who comprise the Min
nesota Soldiers Bonus BOARD OF
REVIEW, which started functioning
July 1st, have asked the 483 Mime
sofa Legion posts to collect the bonus
claims of applicants who wish to ap-
peal from the ruling of the bonus
board, and send them to the Board of
Review in st. Paul, which will travel
as rapidly as possible thru the state
holding hearings, so that no discrim-
ination may be shown in favor of any
community. With the help of the
Legion it is expected that speedier
action will be possible than if each
claimant were to send his request in
| dividually or come to st. Paul in
person.
The wearing of the American
Legion button by delinquent and nom
members is punishable by Minnesota
Law, Chapter 235, Laws of 1919.
The Legion State Executive Commit
tee has directed that members whose
1921 dues are not paid by July 10th
be suspended and deprived of the
right to wear the Legion insignia.
Every member who joins or pays
his delinquent dues before July 10th
helps strengthen his posts influence
in the Winona Convention, because
post representation is based on paid
up membership as of July 10th.

Joe Bateman's second boxing show
at Silver Spring. Nd. is booked for
Wednesday night. April @.
Arrangements have been practically
completed for five first-class bouts,
Bateman promising to stand up ten
battlers who will give more action
even than those in the last engage
ments.
The main bout will be between
Steve Muchic, the Atlantic fleet scrap
per, and Johnny Kelly, the Philadel-
phian. In the last show these men
met at what was scheduled to have
been ten rounds. Muchic walked into
a singing blow which closed his right
eye.
The sailor scrapper was so blinded
that he was unable to como up for
the third round, and Kelly was award
ed the verdict. Muchic claimed that
Kelly kneed him in the eye. The con-
tinuing argument will be at 80
pounds.
Billy Regan will be matched with
Trembling Trimble. while John l..
Smith. the 133-pounder who stopped
Morgan so completely will probably
be put on with Brown. the Norfolk
scrapper.
Bateman will announce the card as
complete within the next two days.

To baseball or to golf? That is
the question.
Whether 'tis more popular to kiss
the old apple on the nose and ske-
daddle around the four-base circuit,
or to whang the little corrugated
spheroid on the beezer with a small
section of a gnarled oak and sue out
a search warrant for the pellet.
Aye! There's the rub.
Followers of the two games are
engaging in considerable of a double
tointed debate on the relative popu-
larity of the two sports, and each
group claims that it's game Is the
national pastime. The controversy
was started when a prominent sport
ing editor unqualifiedly proclaimed
golf to be the great American sport.
Whereupon supporters of baseball
called MIN good and hard and arc
continuing to call him, while bogie-
mounds bay his praise.
ARGUMENT FROM BOTH CAMPS.
Today we print an argument from
10th camps.
Says William T. Prendable. of the
United States Naval Air Station:
After reading the argument about
whether golf or baseball Is our
greatest pastime. without hesitation
/ take the same view as Colonel
Drain, who sticks by golf.
Il have served aboard four ships
in the last seven years. played base
Lall on two ship teams and partici-
pated in all the sports in the navy.
l would be sailing the seas today II
l could play golf aboard ship.
Golf is the most fascinating game
in this country for 10th young and
old There are thousands like my
| self, who prefer to take part in a
game rather than cit in grand
stand and watch others play. You
don't have to be all dressed up TO
play golf A lot OF people think golf
Is for old men and children and is a
sissy game, but there are a lot OF
queer people in this world.

many people play gols in Washington

Which is all very interesting. but

OPINION OF L. McCLARK.

tional sport, let me state:
Baseball is decidedly the national
sport.

Baseball and he is either crippled or
mentally deficient. On the other
hand, how many boys play golf?
Golf. especially in country districts,
is not known to the average boy or
most men.
I'VE must take into consideration
the people who attend baseball games,
that in itself Is a pastime, a recrea-
tion, healthful and enjoyable.
where you find one playing golf,
you will find 100 playing baseball.
Naturally you find the older genera
tion playing golf. baseball would be
too strenuous for them. but how many
