Miss Cook had hreezed through the

her Waterloo. The Westtown racketer,
an unknown quantity TO the defend

throughout the encounter, matching
game for game until 1t was evident
that the winner would be decided only
by the narrowest margin.
Miss Cook, fighting for the last

her to claim. showed GOODNESS and
judgment in planning her campaign

n VIEW YORK, July 15.-The fact
IN that I have decided that ! will
NJ Law off from my usual boxing
4 Y and gym stuff today has
caused the boys to ask lot
of questions, also to make couple OF
wise cracks. When I answered that
/ was resting up day because my
condition was coming along so salts
factorily, some one Clipped in with
the opinion that Jack Dempsey must
be in far better condition than yours
truly. because the ex-champion lays
off every other day at least.
OF course, the sudden hot spell in
New York has something to do with
the order of my handlers that / cut
the gym work for a day. l have
taken off six and one-half pounds in
three days and as / have been build
ing up the last few weeks in surpris'
ing style, I ought to come In at
slightly over 100 pounds TO be right.
Certainly, / have no complaint over
the way my condition is working In.
Personally, if l had my own way l
would probably do little boxing this
afternoon, but Messrs. Buckley and
Kelly said no. l was bad boy yes
terday. I went on the road for four
miles. and I must admit that for once
I disobeyed orders. At least, l per-
suaded my handlers that l didn't
notice the heat and that l felt the
need for little run.
Listens to Benny Leonard.
But if things keep running along as
Rmoothly as they have thus far, then
no one need worry over the matter OF
my condition. Benny Leonard, who
was looking me over yesterday, got
wise to a little something on the point
of condition that only boxer would
notice.
After 1 finished off with my boxing
I started in on the fast bag. Although
/ kept on with my work, l was still
able to get an earful of Bennys
observations.
There's a tip-off as to condition
I heard Leonard say. When the
work in. the ring is getting hard for
the boxer in training. he will fol-
low up his boxing with some kind
of wrestling or pushing exercise. 1t
is not SO hard to keep the arms in
this kind of stuff. But If he follows
up the boxing with work on the
fast bag, then you know that his
arms haven't tired. You're not going
to be there pegging away with quick.
upward, high punching If the arms
are heavy"
And Ben said something. Another
student of boxing, whose opinion l
respect, because he tells me just
what he thinks and think he knows
something, complimented me over the
fact that I kept right on boxing un-
concernedly after Lea Gates hap
pened to pop me with a pretty stift
right to the head.
Leo went on with me for a round

year and ask them to take a GER
tain amount of preferred stock in
a project in which they are con-
cerned, such stock purchases serv-
ing as evidence of good faith that

Ely at East Worcester, NY. Mr..
and Mrs. Adriel Ely were very
prominently connected with the
early history and development of
Kennewick and the surrounding
country and still have consider
able holdings in this vicinity.
Mrs. Ely was born October 10,
1864 and died Saturday, December
10, 1926. She was a lover of music,
being an apt student, playing the
piano when but six years of age.

LEGISLATURE is
READY TO MEET

Continued from front pagel
$2,500,00 in a biennium. Two
years ago, several east side legis
lators met and agreed to demand
more than FL per cent of the motor
vehicle fund.
Extra cent on the gasoline tax

to retire 100000 bond issue
Tor an emergency paving fund.-
which would be first used for paw
ing an east-west highway. The
grange wants it for farm-to-mar.
ket highways. West side counties
will oppose bond issue.
Seattle wants more road money
and will demand state aid in build
ing the Stone Way bridge. which
will cost more than $4,000, 900
outside counties are sure to resist
the demand. Seattle plans to re-
taliate by demanding reapportion-
ment of the legislature.
Plan to remove office of state
highway engineer from under the
governor and place it under state
highway board, which would break
the governors hold on the high
way program.
Plan to modify direct primary,
designed to permit political par
ties to recommend or indorse can
didates. =
Carlyon plan to distribute the
annual $1,8OO.000 permanent high
way fund to give bigger share to
little cow counties" Wilmer plan
TO do. same with school money.
Big counties will oppose both the
plans.
Control of the schools of higher
learning. This problem is loaded
with dynamite. There is the Hart
ley plan for one board. which will
be opposed, as before, chiefly be-
cause the opposition does not want
MIR. Hartley to name the board
members. Some want regents and
trustees removable by governor at
VIII. Others want law that will
require governor to prove miscon-
duct, misfeasance or malfeasance,
In court, before removal. Others
want regents and trustees appoint
ed by chief justice of the supreme
court. Above all there is obviously
a demand for an educational pol
icy to definitely fix the status and
control of the university, college
and normal schools, so the people
may know where the schools be-
long and whom to hold responsible
for management and costs.
Revision of the taxation system
to permit relief for real property,
the lift to be replaced by taxes
from other sources, which will
probably raise consideration of a
gross sales tax or an income tax.
Tax commission wants consti-
tutional amendment to permit
classification of property. Such a
proposal lost in the last session
when most of the Hartley group,
headed by Mr.. Sims and Speaker
Danskin, declined to support it..
Tax commission also wants author
ity to search out and tax "intang-
ibles." Recommendations ,of the
tax commission would indicate
that Hartley administration is be-
coming more favorable, toward tax
shifting and tax equalization.
Besides, legislative committees
will report on Investigations of
reclamation, penitentiary, sale of
state timber and other things.
Each will surely be suspected of
carrying some politics between
the lines.
Then there will be several We
toed bills to take up, any of which
is likely to start a fight.
