GLORIA SWANSON'S
 FATHER ARMY CLERK
Could Lead Life of Ease, but Prefers to Be Active in Quartermaster
 Corps

LOS ANGELES, March S-Rather than lead the life of gentleman of leisure, enjoying all the comfort, there is man stationed at Fort Macarthur, near Los Angeles, whose gray hairs are beginning to show at the temples, who selected the life of chief clerk in the quartermaster's department of the coast artillery corps. He is Joseph Swanson, father of Gloria Swanson, screen celebrity, whose name is symbolic of pretty gowns and such things dear to wom- en. Swanson is quiet, genial, of en- gazing personality and possessing an amazing knowledge of motion pictures. If he wished, the pretty stars father could live life of luxury. But such, he says, is not his desire. Joseph Swanson is forty-seven years old and was a captain in the Ameri- can Engineering Corps in France dur l ing the World War. He served for more than year with distinction and | after the armistice returned to Los | Angeles to make his home. "I have spent many weekend at Gloria's Beverley Hills home," he said with a smile. "but I've always led an active life. I've travelled lot, too, and time naturally hung heavy on my hands. So got this berth in the 1 coast artillery"
 He talked at length about his daugh- l ter, but next in affection to her is his little granddaughter, the two-year-old l child of the star, who is also named Gloria.
 | Some people seem to think that because they've never seen a picture of Gloria's little girl that she is de. formed. The baby is even more per.
 feet and prettier than Gloria was at her age"
 Before the war Swanson was an at
 tache of the State Department sta
 toned in Japan. It was while in was while in that country that he learned he had been divorced. He laughed
 when he told about returning home
 Although Gloria wrote me regular
 ly, she never told me about it." he said
 As for himself he is contented
 with his duties in the artillery corps so long as he can go over to Beverley Hills every so often and see his grand daughter.

Tunney or Tom Gibbons, the leading American light heavyweights, capable of lifting the worlds title held by Bat ting Ski, who acquired 1t by knock ing out Carpenter. The Senegalese is still recognized in this country as the champion despite the ruling of French authorities depriving him of the title because of alleged improper conduct. Reports have been current that he in- tends to seek several bouts in the United States during the summer.
 Benny Leonard faces several strong contenders in the lightweight ranks, including Lew Tender, of Philadel- phia; Sailor Freedman, and Charley While, both of Chicago. But the fact that he has previously conquered all three inclines critics to the opinion that he will continue to remain SUI preme.
 The suggestion has been made ire quently that Leonard, however, may find difficulty keeping inside the light weight limit of 135 pounds and even- tually be compelled to seek honors in the welterweight division. Although he failed last summer in an attempt to take this title from Jack Britton, los ing to the, veteran on a foul, Leonard would be a formidable opponent for Walker, who captured the champion ship from Britton. Dave Shade, of California, and Andy Thomas, of New York, are other top-ranking welter- weights.

 This little saying has been indel- ibly impressed on the minds of At latna school children since the tru- ant officer here started campaign to enlist the blue-clad guardians of the law in the army that is some times needed to keep the youngsters "schoolward bound"
 The police promised to cooperate with the truant officer and since this time, the school children declare, playing hockey" has become an art instead of an exciting sport"

WHAT 1923 MAY BRING TOPUCS
 OF FISTlC RING

NEW YORK, March S.-Five of the eight universally recognized boxing champions are likely to be dethroned this year, in the opinion of ring critics, while titleholders in the other three divisions probably also will face stren- uous opposition in an effort to re- tain their laurels. The general out look is for one of the most interest ing fistic programs in many years. Pugilistic kings considered to be in imminent danger of losing their world crowns are: Jimmy Wilde, of Eng land, flyweight; Joe Lynch, of New
 York; bantamweight; Johnny Kilbane, of Cleveland, featherweight; Johnny Wilson, of Boston, middle weight; and Battling Siki, of France and Senegal, light heavyweight.
 The other itleholders-BennyL Leon- ard, of New York, lightweight; Mickey
 Walker, of Elizabeth, N J., welter- weight, and Jack Dempsey, heavy weight-are favored to stay at the top, but while the opposition in their re- spective ranks is not considered more than threatening, there is always the chance that any of them will receive fatal tap on the chin.
 Chief interest promises to center upon Dempsey, who plans an active outdoor campaign after lapse of nearly two years since his memorable fight with Georges Carpentier Sev- eral of his challengers may make it more than interesting for the cham pion. but the present prospect is that he will successfully retain his laurels. Wilde, who has been inactive for some time, has been challenged for
 title match by Pancho Villa, the
 scrappy Filipino, who took the Ameri
 can flyweight title away from Johnny
 Buff last year. Villa not only has can flyweights, but he has frequently gone out of his class with decisive suc- cess.
 The Filipino is ambitious to dupli-
 cate Bluffs feat in holding both the flyweight and bantamweight belts and has a following which would be ready
 to back him strongly in a title bout with Joe Lynch The latter faces two
 other formidable challengers in Carl Tremaine, hard-hitting Clevelander, and Irish Johnny Curtin, of Jersey
 City, N. J.
 Kilbane has agreed to stake his featherweight title against the French man, Eugene Criqui, holder of the Flu ropean championship, in match at the Polo Grounds on Decoration Day, Criqui, young and aggressive, will have much in his favor against Kill
 bane, who has slowed up as result of long period of inactivity.
 Wilson, another inactive champion,
 will have difficulty retaining his title if he accepts the challenges of several formidable 160-pounds boxers, includ- ing Tommy Loughran, of Philadelphia,
 Harry Greb, of Pittsburgh, who also holds the American light heavyweight
 title, and Bryan Downey, of Cleve-
 land. Wilson is not recognized as | champion in a number of states be-
 cause of his tactics in avoiding cham pionship matches

Those White Traffic Lines

Some mbeclie criticism has recently been made in Sc
attic of the white guide lines that the traffic division
Of the police department has painted at different busy
street intersections.
In the opinion of the Star those lines are real aids to
careful driving at such intersections especially at hours
when traffic officers stationed there duty In
this view fortified by the concurring opinions of
many drivers.
There is nothing complicated confusing about these
lines, their lonely critics have maintained Instead
they indicate plainly where proposing to make left
turn shall travel and where those nten g to go straight
thru or turn to the right shall And they aid
terialy in dividing the traffic into smoothly flowing
streams where otherwise there would likely result mad
