TRIES FOR k. ..
IN ONE Bic
ROUND
Stribling, Better Boxer,
Outpoints San Antonio
Middleweight.
By CHARLES MCPHERSON
(WIchita Beacon.N

WICHITA, Kan, April 13.-Bcst.
ed by Striblins for six rounds, Chuck
Burns of San Antonio, came back
nerc in the seventh round last night
and, smashing Stribling in the mouth
and on the jaw. sent him staggering
into the ropes. For two rounds Burns
carried the fight TO Stribling. who
learned his lesson in that time and
fought at long range in the ninth
and tenth rounds.
By better footwork and more clever
boxing. Stribling piled up a good edge
over Burns but the Texas boy CT
him up worse in the seventh and
eighth rounds than he has been in all
Of the fights he has had during the
last year.
In the seventh round, Burns split
StribliDg's lip and for a while the
Stribling fanny, "Pa" and MA" and
W. LIS wife. were afraid they were
going to see their champion go down.
The ropes caught Stribling as he
staggered away from Burns.
BURNS WINS ONE.
By rounds Stribling had six in
row but lost the seventh by a wide
margin. He broke even in the eighth
and had the better of the ninth and
tenth.
The showing that Burns made was
n great surprise here as many thought
Stribling would put him away, having
won several fights in this section OF
the country by knockouts.
At the finish Burns was fully as
fresh as Stribling. Stribfing was
never in danger as long as he boxed
with Burns but he took many wal
lop on the side of the head and on
the face and neck when he went into
clinches.
TRYING HIM OUT.
Following the fight Burns said that
he spent six rounds to find out how
hard Stribling could hit and when
he discovered he was in no danger he
tried TO put Stribling out.
Mercy Montez suffered a broken
rib in his bout with Charley Pitts
of Kansas City and although Montez
finished gamely he lost every round
after the third.
A record breaking crowd Of nearly
10000 persons saw the Stribling-
Burns fight.

Editorial Comment
Bold Britons Speak Right Out

In this country the women school teachers have
had no little difficulty in getting what they call
equal pay for equal work" While the men teach
crs, class, have not been enthusiastic supporters
Of their sisters, few Of them have made their antag-
onism to equality of pay and position articuatc.
In England it is different There tho schoolm:s-
tiers, assembled in convention in Hull have not hest
tated to dcnouncc the giving of lie pay to men and
women as cruel injustice to the former and they
solcmnly have agreed never never, to serve as as
sistant masters under women "Reminiscences AS
one Of these true sons Of Adam put it, "The women
relentless in their efforts to secure equal pay
and the will have to meet their irrational policy
relentlessly"
just what they going to do, aside from re-
fusing to take positions subordinate to women, is
not revealed by the special dispatch to the Herald
Tribune. Perhaps they going to resort to meas
urcs analogous to the vigorous ones against mas
cunc enemies taken by the English suffragettes just
before the World war. They might also get some
useful suggestions from our own Ku Klux Khan in
dealing with women found Objectionable for other
reasons than getting too many and too big jobs as
teachers. Not for them pussy-footing argu-
mcnts that, taken by and large, women do not and
can not work in every way equal to mans and that
therefore they should not have equal pay.

But behind the mask which he wears to the world

her face he turns away. And, when she looks at
Brown, she not him but the mask he wears. And
