KILBANE MAY TAKE
ON MARTIN FOR
TITLEB
United Press Leased Wire

NEW YORK, May 3.-If Johnny
Kilbane lives up to his promise he will
give Pepper Martin, the Brooklyn feath-
erweight a chance for his title.
Kilbane said he would meet the win
ner of the Martin-Babe Herman bout
and Martin won the fight with two good
left hand shots in the first round last
night at the Garden.
If the promoters will offer enough
money, there is little doubt that Kill
bane will meet Martin because he is in
no danger of losing his title and he
might figure that he needs money after
seeing Europe with none of the freight
paid.
Kilbane demanded 100000 when
French promoters want him to meet
Eugene Cirque, the French champion
and probably will want more to allow
Martin to get lot of advertising out OF
a bout with him. There are not many
promoters who have that much money
to guarantee him.
The champion, unless he figures that
he would have little profitable eXer-
else by mixing with Martin will prob
ably suggest that pepper meet trush,
who is a very much averded boy.

BRAWLEY POST HAS
FAST BOUTS |

BRAWLEY, May 3.-Brawley Post
No. 90, American Legion, will present
on Friday night in the Brawley arena,
a high class boxing card. For the main
event the post has signed Jack Hubbard
of Frisco, VS.. Kid Savage. Savage
is well known to the people of Brawley
having fought in several bouts in the
valley. Jack Hubbard has been in many
battles knocking out Brooklin AL Rob
erts in one round, losing one decision.
the Wellie Meehan in four rounds and
getting a draw with Meehan the next
time they meet in a six round bout.
Hubbard knocked out Young Sharkey IN
one round, knocked out Bob Markles IN
four rounds, knocked out Kid Warran IN
three rounds. Jack Hubbard comes here
from Tucson, AriZ., where he knocked
out Young Mccoy in three rounds.
The post believes in this main event,
they have secured the best card they
ran offer. The balance of the card is
equally as good as the main event, Bat
ling Murphy of Brawley will box Kid
Williams of Heber, in the semi-final.
Speed 3sll Allen of Brawley will meet
Kid Mex of FL Centre, and one surprise
bout will end with battle royal of
cotton pickers. Tickets will be on sale
in the billiard halls and Gordon news
stand.
This will be the second meeting of
Hubbard and Savage, the first time be-
ing in San Francisco, where they fought
a four round draw.

ball. 1t is an easy sweeping motion OF
the bat in an ellipse that is almost
complete circle. The ball comes into
the orbit of the circle and is incident
ally swept along by the bat stroke.
Correct hitting requires more practice
than an amateur can give to it. SO
the amateur usually has "bad eye,
hits too late, with his arms only, jabs
or tags at the ball as it shoots past him,
does not reach away up in front of him
and "take hold of it, with the easy
sweeping motion of the professional.
The young players should take an
easy, correct stance at the plate, hold
the bat in good balance, go back slowly
for hit bat stroke then come forward in
good time, with level bat, easily,
powerfully, with his eye glued to the
exact spot he wishes to hit. Then he
will follow through correctly which is
proof that he hit in the best possible
style.

COMMISSIONER BLAIR CLASHES
 WITH ELMER DOVER

"A merry war is going in Washington over the spoils of office. D. H. Blair, commits sioner of internal revenue, has hurled defiance at Elmer Dover, wielder of the alleged eff ciency broom flor the good of the service," by issuing an order that no one but the Sec retary of the Treausry, the commissioner him. self or the appointment clerk shall have any, thing to say about changing the personnel of the bureau.
 Elmer Dover, The Age-Herald's Washington correspondent says, has already deprived 500 democrats of their jobs in the various bureaus under the treasury department No one but the merest novice in politics would believe that all, or even 8 majority, of these government employees were turned out for incompetence. MT. Dover was brought up in the old-fashioned school of politics which believes that patron age belongs exclusively to the party in power and to permit democrat to hold govern ment job when there is hungry republican . to be fed. would shatter a sacred tradition. It is well known that Mir. Dover was ap- pointed assistant secretary of the treasury to :. do the "dirty work" that Secretary Mellon declined to do. He started in with right good will, but he seems to have struck Tartar in Mir. Blair. Just at present, the commis- sioner of internal revenue has the better of the argument. Secretary Mellon is the head of the treasury department, Mir. Dover merely bfe esv;stan+ Cacretarv Mel1on heino a re- publican, may stand by MT. Dover, but he has shown rather plainly that he has no liking for the spells system and is not willing to turn out a competent democrat and put an incompetent republican in his place simply to satisfy the "pie brigade"

LADY ASTOR GIVES SOME
 GOOD ADVICE

Lady Astor, an American beauty of old Vir- ginia stock and the first woman to sit in the English Parliament, says home should come first with woman and politics next. Every woman should enter politics. At least, she should learn how to vote intelligently. Teach ing children, says Lady Astor, is the most inl- portant thing in the world.
 If advanced feminists disagree with Lady Astor we may console ourselves with the re- fection that she speaks for enlightened woman hood the world over. Despite the onslaughts to which it has been subjected in recent years, home is still the foundation of our civilization and there can be no homes without good wives and good mothers.
 Some of the sisters who scorn to bear their husbands names, maintain separate establish ments and experiment with other theories to Tighten the so-called marital yoke, are mili- tant and somewhat noisy minority. But com mon sense erects barrier across their prog ress and they are but manifestations of the times, like the flapper. Civilization will go on in the old established way, the way that centuries have taught us is the best, and women will enjoy larger opportunities, but the Fundamental relations between the sexes will never change.
 Lady Astor is successful wife, successful mother and has won eminence in public life. She is none the less woman for her political honors.
