A hundred or more people were out
Friday evening Of last week to wit
ness the boxing carnival which was
staged at the Liberty Theatre by the
local Legion Post s ..,i /,
(. The entire evening was devoted to
boxing matches which started with
preliminaries by the younger boys and
ended with the main bout between
Ralph Mccain of Sanger and Palmer
Fahlgren. The first bout was draw
between Walter Schulz and Ralph
Ekstrom. The second between Law
renee Schulz and Ed Wolitarsky was
shade in favor of young Schulz. Both
of these bouts carried the ear marks
Of youth and caused merriment to the
audience. The next bout was between
John Fisher and Leonard Olson. The
boys mixed it up good, each getting in
some we'll planted blows. Carl Peter
son and Elmer Fahlgren gave good
exhibition. They were both fast, and
demonstrated the ability to spar. The
foot work Of Peterson gave him the
little better advantage. The main
bout between McCann and Fahlgren
was much more of the professional
type. McCann by his work showed
he. was familiar with ring tactics.
Fahlgren on the other hand lacked the
training that McCann had. In the first
round Mccain worked his opening

ent's arms and delivering short body
blows and ending up in a clinch.
Fahigren was able to keep him out in
some cases and in one instance landed
a blow on the head, which might have

The public does not know the

What does the man care about
a prison sentence, SO far as hi,
shame and degradation are con-
cerned, after he has experienced
the preliminary rtages of his ruin
and downfull in the public and
cold-blooded manner Of his arrese
Incarceration, trial, conviction and
sentence?
When he finally reaches the
prison his case as a convict in
settled and his status fixed as q
part Of the criminal element. He
may be still further hardened in
mis- bitterness and resentment,
and he may become sullen and
defiant as he dons his shabby
prison garb. but it is almost Ger.
tain that from the time he en-
tiers prison the baser qualities of
his nautre will be developed and
find expression.
AS a matter Of fact, he was
already branded a felon before
his trial began and, figurativefy
speaking, he had already served
his sentence before he was actu-
ally convicted.
