Helena, Mont, Jan. 28.--With rs
history and practically half of the
session gone, but one new law has
been placed upon the statute book, II.
B. No. by Oker, of Lewis and Clark
which provides that the taxes for the
year 1922 will not become delinquent
until October of this year. At the
end of the fourth week there are
207 bills introduced in both houses
and of this number 1877 were initiat-
ed in the house with 70 in the upper
body.
Of those from the house IA have
been killed, 15 sent to the senate,
four, including those for appropria-
tions, have been signed by the COVER
nor, while the remaining ones are
still in the committees. Of the 207
bills introduced, 21 have been killed
in the committees and the number
officially axed will be greatly increas-
ed by the end of the week.
The past week finds various COM
mittees from both bodies laboring
long after adjournment SO as to be
able to report on bills now held by
them, and it is frequently rumored
that the last half of the session will
find both houses holding night ses-
sion. All indictions point that the
senate will be anti-Dixon from about
four to six votes on most measures,
while the week just ended demon
;trated that the administrator will be
n control by about Is votees on all
administration measures.
The real test of strength IN the
louse was made evident on the 23rd
legislative day when the bill by

Dixon at Missoula) No. 40, cutting

titutions of Montana was killed by
vote of So to 40. Torrents of ora
ory were splashed on the floor OF
he house but the Dixon forces were
n complete control of the situation.
Jenny and Maury Of Silver Bow,
GOODMAN of Broadwater and Schar- 5
ikow of Powell, spoke for the pro
osed measure, while Gullidge Of

WOMEN OUT TO WIN

1t is going to be women's night at
the M. E. church next Tuesday and
that means a great deal more than
it did before the M. E. men dared to
challenge the fair but deadly sex to
a supper contest. The men have had
their turn at bat and made a fine
showing, both as to the supper they
served and he money they raked in.

Dempsey left the ring with blood
dripping from an old cut over his eye

"last Of Mortons" Is Pro- nounoed Best Athlete At
 Birmingham COIIeqe

Paul NJ. Mike" Norton, as the last representative of long line of ath- letes that has figured prominently in Birmingham-S Southern college sports for the past l6 or 17 years, ended his career and the name of Norton in Panther athletics by being voted the best all-round athlete of the college this year. He was awarded the Henry ]. Porter. Jr. silver loving cup and the Robertson athletic medal Tuesday morning These two tro- phies go annually to Birmingha Southern's best athlete.
 Norton made his bid for the cup and medal on football, baseball. bas- ketball and tennis. In football he was one of the most consistent gain CTS on the team. In the Howard game he played one of the great est games ever played by local college athlete. Although hurt badly he played the entire game but was in the. hospital for two weeks after wards. It was a fitting capstone for a great gridiron career.
 Although Birmingham Southern did not turn out a basketball team last year Norton has seen service on Panther cage teams and was crack forward.
 On the diamond he was one of the best centerfielders in this section of the country and was heavy hitter. He was out of all the Howard games except the first on account of illness.
 He slings a wicked racquet in ad- dition to the handling of football, bask etball and baseball with skill

PAUL NORTON IS MRS. TOMMY WILL AWARDED PORTER DO ALL COOKING CUP AT SOUTHERN IN GIBBONS CAMP

SHELBY, Mont, May 29.-The sec ond-best cook in all this world will brown the biscuits and frizzle the lamb chops in the training camp for the exuberant young man from St. Paul who thinks he will whip the worlds champion prizefighter on July 1.
 Tommy Gibbons expects Mrs. Gib- bons to arrive from their home in St. Paul in short time to take com mand of the galley in his temporary abode near the site of the arena She'd be the worlds best cook if that title were not held by courtesy to every mans mother.
 And she's a wonder with skillet or a waffle-ir0n." Tommy declaims to the universe and all unchartcred suburbs. When I think of those waffIes-those toasted golden wal fles, bathcd in butter and real maple syrup. When 1 think of them I want to pluck the hash house blues on my ukelele and I would If l had a ultelele and somebody would give me some lessons"
 It seems that Tommy, on his ex- hibition tour now happily ended, drew most of his rations from the primitive elite cares and new Del monicos of many small western towns where grease is the basis of all crockery. And as he perched on high stools at these lunch counters, sparrinE with fried things and cop per r-riveted eatin' house pie, his thoughts would drift back to St. Paul and those crisp steaks and muf- fins and other fragrant recollections which only made his sufferings the more poignant.
 When she arrives here, everything will be different" Tommy frightened She has actually studied cookery. She can just take an ordinary lump of meat and with few passes can transform it into something that looks as though the angles were on the job in the kitchent'
 Tommy now believes he will go back to St. Paul himself to bring out Mrs. Gibbons and their three children who will live in the training quar- ters until July 1.

Fowlkes of Memphis, who handed the B. A. C. Proto fought his typi- cal, aggressive, gruelling battle, but Fowlkes knew just enough to keep out of the way of that dreaded infighting of Protc S, and to plant a few right upper cuts that eventually won the fight for him.
 And then. Claude Wilson didn't want to call off that long planned vacation of his while Tommy Tompkins and other B. A. c. of ficials didn't think the time was ripe for a Proto- Wilson match.
 AS a consequence, the little bantam will net fight next Mon day night at the B. A. C., but it is probable that they will be gotten together before the sum mer is over.
 PrOtO really lost no prestige by being defeated by FOwIkes Mon dny night. There were quite n few at the rinEside who thought the little Birminghnmmer should have been given nt least n draw. for he did stage whiriwind fight from start to finish. Red Herring. veteran lightweight. stated thnt FOwikes is really nifty little boxer, and that PrOtO shouldn't worry over losing to boy like the Memphinn.
 Dutch Henry. that sensational young southpaw who burned up the league with the Mobile Bears in 1922, would be a great pitcher but for one weakness he has, the dopesters have said, com menting on the peculiar delivery of Henry's that would seem to make it easy for opposing base runners to scamper around the paths. Dutch seemed able to hide that weakness Tuesday. for he blanked the New York Giants. champions of them all, letting them down with five hits.
 The Southern league has quite n few recruit twirlers going good in the majors these days. Cven- ErOs. Henry and Dickerman have all been turning in excellent per- formances for their respective teams.
 Barons and Chicks close out their series at Memphis Wednes- day, after which Joe Dunn's men return to Redwood for short home stay. They will play the Mobile Bears on Thursday, an open date, in a game that was postponed from a series back wonder in April.

Walker Cup Team Is Home From The Meet

NEW YORK, May 29.-Defeated once but victorious twice in the three important bouts they had with Great Britain's best amateur golfers, the American Walker cup team returned home Tuesday aboard the Majestic, bringing back the cup which al most got away.
 Led by Bob Gardner, the captain, the team was made up of o. P. Will ling, Francis Ouimet, Max Marston, Jack Neville. George Rotan, Jess Sweetser, E. J. Johnson, Fred Wright and J. F. Byers.
 They won the St. Georges vase competition and, thanks to Willing's imperturbable poise in the crucial final match. came along from dreary start to win the Walker cup again. The Americans were de- feated. however, in the British anna teur championship.

LENOARD SCORES K. o.
 OVER PINKIE MITCHELL

right across to the face and body blow.
 Newspaper opinion was that Miller was right in failing to declare a foul, and that Ritchie was merely giving way to his emotions, as Pinkie was in a squatting but rising posi- tion when knocked for the count.
 Both fighters weighed in at 14O pounds. Mitchell had the advantage iE height, standing five feet eleven inches to Benny's five feet and five.
 Jim Mullen, promoter of the bout, was put under technical arrest fol- lowing the bout in order to give the state antl-boxing law test. Thus far the fights here this season have been carried on under protection of injunctions, but Mulien hopes to do away with the necessity of securing injunctions against interference by the police.
