NONSUPPORT
LAW ASKED
Monday Evening Club Seeks to
Have Changes Also in Way
ward Minor Acts.

Four important changes in the
District non-support law and acts
to guard hayward minors will be
asked of Congress by the Monday
Evening Club, as the result Of p
meeting last night in the Cosmos
Club.
The nonsupport law changes to
be asked are: To make nonsupport
an extraditable offense; to strike out
the words hard labor" in the law
classifying nonsupport as a mis-
demeanor, rather than a felony; to
permit the family Of the convicted
man 50 a day as the result Of his
servitude rather than the SO cents
now allowed. and to make the second
conviction for nonsupport felony
instead of misdemeanor,
Under the maynard minor laws,
delinquent girls would not be SUBJ
jected to court trial, would be spared
registration as criminals, and would
not be brought into contact with the
criminal in court or elsewhere.
Mrs. Nina G. Van Wrinkle presided.
and Louis A. Simon, president OF the
Juvenile Protective Association, con-
Quoted an open forum.

 Coach Ben Englebert has been giv- ing the Pantherettes plenty of work this week in preparation for the game. The major part of the work has been scrimmage and defensive play. The Pantherettes should be in good condition for the game. despite the fact that they have been idle since their last game, as several games were scheduled but had to be called off at the last minute.
 Little is known of the Chattanooga quintet. They have. strong team, however. according to rumor.
 Several new candidates have come out for the Pantherette squad since their last game. and they have been able to get in a lot of scrimmage.

 pion Dempsey

NEW YORK, Feb. 7.-Jess Willard, former heavyweight champion. and Floyd Johnson of Iowa, aspirant to the worlds title, were matched today to meet May F in 15-round bout to a decision at the new Yankee sta tiiufn for the benefit of the milk fund of the mayors committee of women. The boxers were guaranteed $25,000 each.
 Chairman William Muldoon of the state boxing commission has ap- proved the Willard J ohnson bout.
 The bout may lead the winner to an encounter with Jack Dempsey. the title holder, as both men have been in the forefront of recent discussions of the next battle for the worlds championship.
 Willard, who has been training daily in a gymnasium, will look for permanent camp site in the next few days, and probably will locate near Saratoga Springs, N. Y. Johnson, who politan district, likewise probably will move upstate.
 It was originally intended to match Tom Gibbons of St. Paul with John son for the 1923 milk fund, but Win lard was substituted and Gibbons probably will meet another opponent in the garden ring March 19.
 Both bouts are under the manage ment of Tex Rickard. The Yankee management, it is understood. ten dered the stadium without cost to the womans committee.

SIMPSON TO MEET
 ALLIANCE M NEXT

Coach George Reynolds will pit his great Simpson basketball team against the strong Alliance High five for return game Thursday aft ernoon at f o'clock at the Bfrming- ham Athletic club.
 The Tornado barely missed getting it's first defeat of the season, We'd nesday night, at the hands of the long range shooting Pettus Lowrey, of the Bessemer High school five However. other than a bad scare, the Simpsonites weathered the hard game in fine fashion and will be in excellent condition for their game Thursday afternoon.
 Alliance was beaten in the first game played with Simpson by a score of 23 to 20. As the game nearer the close, the Alliance play CTS showed some great offensive work and since that game have been busy perfecting their team work They are sure to bring team that was stronger than the team that played Simpson a couple of weeks ago. Melvin Vines, center, and Roberts. forward, are the two big offensive stars for Alliance. Vines is an accurate shooter from long distances and good floor man.
 Coach Reynolds will very probably start the same team against Alliance that started against Bessemer We'd nesday night: Vincent and Senn, for wards; Byrd. center; Carroll and Ferguson, ards.
 In addition to the Alliance game the Tornado plays the Alabama freshmen return game at Tusca- Ioosa Friday nigh and may play .he Tuscaloosa High five Saturday afternoon.

ENTRIES FOR DOG. SHOW HERE HELD. OPEN FOR $ DAYS.

Entries for the approaching bench show reached the high water mark Wednesday night, for exceeding last years entries. The secretarys of fee was kept busy until midnight filing entries from eleventh hour en- trants. It is expected that Thurs day mails will bring in scores of more out-of-town entries. On ac- count of so many requests from fan ciers for a few days longer in which to get their entries in, the Ameri- can Kennel club has granted the To- cal club permission to extend time of six more days for accepting en- tries, but such belated entrants will have to pay a penalty on their en- tries. However, to the real fancier small penalty for tardiness will not hold him back from giving his dog chance at the 600 prizes of fered.
 The approaching show reflects much credit to not only the local fanciers, but to the public spirited citizens of Birmingham as well, as the magnificent premium list issued by the club contains several thou sand dollars worth of prizes offered by the various merchants, industries. and the business and professional men and women of the city. The show will be the largest ever held in the south, and will be another big boost for progressive Birmingham.

COUNTY WILDCATS PLAY HERE FRIDAY

The Jefferson County High school team, boys and girls, will play the Mortimer High teams dou- ble-header basketball game at the Y. M. c. A., Friday afternoon, at 2:3O o'clock.
 The Mortimer Jordan boys team is sad to be strong one, but little is known of the girls team.
 The Jefferson county team has been making good showing this year. Hall, at center. is an accurate shot from all parts of the court, and is good floor man as well. Ken yon, at forward, is a good floor man whose passing and dribbling is a big cog in the Jeffco machine. Capt. Agnes Drake is the big star for the girls quintet. In a recent game, she shot II out of 13 points that Jeffco made in beating Jones Valley.
 The Mortimer Jordan team has pair of good forwards and good team work They will give the Wildcats a lively scrap.
