PRINCIPALS NOT TO TOLERATE
COMPETITIVE SCHOOL BOXING
Activities in Pugilism Among Students
Must be Confined to Private
Exhibits In Gymnasiums.

Frank Daniel, principal of McKin.
ley Manual Training school, in a let
ter read by Assistant Supt. of Schools
Stephen r.. Kramer, voiced indigna-
ltion that newspapers had carried no
'tices that Tech pupils were planning
to take up boxing on a large scale.
MIR. Daniel stated that so far as he
was concerned boxing would remain
a dead issue at his school.
Ballou Urges Action.
After the merits of boxing i'm the
high schools had been threshed out
DIR. Frank w. Ballou, superintendent
I'm frank talk to the principals urged
them to tighten up" on their super
vision OF their pupils. 1t was ap
parent that he had in mind the re
cent case OF several boys at Central
High School who had been caught
carrying dynamite on their person.
DIR. Ballou reminded the principals
that they, of course, cannot helI
things Of an unpleasant nature from
happening at their schools. but iT
such events they should be able t.
prove that they had left nothing un
done which might have prevented the
occurrences.
Alvin Miller, principal of Contra
High School. told the principals thai
he was proud of the fact that IL was
through the vigilance Of pupils a.
the school that he was able to brins
to a halt the presence of dynamite
in the building.

Boxing among high school students
will not be tolerated by school off,
cials as competitive sport. 1t was
made plain at a meeting Of the high
school principals held at the Franklin
School yesterday.
It was the concensuS among the
high school principals that the pugiE-
istic proclfvities OF high school boys
must be confined to private exhibit
ttons in the school gymnasiums and
not In a ring with fellow pupils cheer
ing them on to a knockout,
While it appeared to be the opinion
of the principals that two recent box
ing exhibitions by Western High
School boys with boys from private
schools were looked upon with disfa-
vor, the principals postponed action on
future bouts of this nature.
Principals Oppose Sport.
There was no division of sentiment.
however. that boxing should not be
established as a competitive sport in
the high schools.
Allan Davis, principal OF Business
High School, where the boys have re-
Gently started boxing lessons, told the
principals that he was boxer him
self and he could see no reason why
they should not be permitted to de
velop boxing in gymnasium classes.
He admitted, however, he would not
approve OF smuggling matches" be
tween the high school boys on com
petftfve basis.

LONGER LIFE SEEN
IN new DISCOVERY
Canadian Physician, Working to
Perfect Cardaissin, Obtained
From Cow Glands.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
SASKATOON. Saskatchewan. March
12.-Discovery of cardaissin, a chem
ical product, calculated to prolong
human life, by DR.. Fl. G.. Cameron
of this city, was announced officially
today by the Canadian Lancet and
Practitioner.
DR.. Cameron Is striving to perfect
his discovery, changing the process
of manufacture and simplifying ex-
traction as much as possible.
The material. obtained from the
superarena1 glands of cows, acceler-
ates the heart in spite of anoxaemia
and it is said that it may be OF use
in cardiac failure in pneumonia cases.
1t also counteracts chloroform poison
ing and may render some operations
less dangerous.
Under present conditions 1000
glands are required to make 10 grams
of cardaissin. 1t takes from one to
three months to make a small guam
tity Of it. and DIR. Cameron is at
tempting to find a means of speeding
up the process. Cardaissin probably
will not be manufactured in CONNER
cial quantities for. several months or
possibly a year. it ls said.

RELIGION HELD AID
TO PREVENT CRIME
Cardinal Hayes Sees Need OF
Rousing Public Senti-
! ment to Help.
Special Dispatch to The star

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March 12.-Can re.
ligious training of the young prevent
crime?
Cardinal Hayes believes that it can.
But any discussion of such training
must take account also Of certain
other factors: The examples set by
public officials. widely known people
and parents; the influence Of the
home or the lack of such influence
and finally, public sentiment itself.
Speaking with the same earnestness
that prompted him to initiate the now
famous Cooley survey. which showed
that crime Is primarily a problem of
youth, Cardinal Hayes last night
talked freely Of conditions today. AL
ways he emphasized the need for co
Protestaf1ts against the common foe,
crime.
Rousing Public Sentiment.
"At the bottom of all suggestions,
however, lies the need for rousing
public sentiment upon the subject,
said the cardinal. There has been
almost incredible lethargy with regard
to 1t. not only among careless people,
but even among those who are sup.
posed to be jealous for the things
that are righteous.
Home conditions. the cardinal be-
lieves, should and can be corrected.
'"rhe home conditions Of the pres
ent day exist, Notwithstanding all
that has been expended with the high.
est hopes on the schools for the past
two generations. Perhaps there is
nothing more important than that we
should by wise counsel put q stop
to the decadence by providing the
proper remedy, by teaching the chill
dren reverence for God as the source
and reason Of their obedience to
authority; parental civic and re-
ligious."
Show Real Her0ism.
That question brought several in
teresting sidelights and raised the fur.
ther question whether children do not.
sometimes, break away from evil
home surroundings.
Children often do the cardinal
said. II have seen a countless mum.
ber do so. Such children often show
real herOism."
Just how does religious instruction
prevent crime? he was asked.
The teaching Of religion imprints
upon the minds OF the children that
they have "a Father in Heaven by
whom they were created and are pre-.
served every moment of their ex
istence," the cardinal answered. ut
inculcates duty to God. to father and
mother and to the flag. 1t depicts the
beauty of virtue and the horror OF
vice, as well as O. reward, both here
and hereafter. for the one, and punish.
ment for the other
Recent student suicides might be
attributed to lack OF religious teach
ing, the cardinal thought. and added
that some tudicious persons might
answer the question in the affirmative
| but he declared that he was not suf
| ficiently conversant with the facts to
pass. q judgment.

GANCSTER OFFERS
S,0)OFOR aAYERS
Salts, at Inquest, Says He Is
Leaving Chicago at Once
"For His Health"
Rr the AaanciatAd pres..

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, March 12.--"Polack Joe"
Salts, gang leader. appeared volun-
tarily at the inquest late today into
the deaths Of two of his henchmen
and in voice pitched In defiance Of
fered $4,000 to "a cop or any one"
who finds the killers.
Salts, under oath. told police that
he had no knowledge Of who manned
the machine guns that riddled the
bodies OF Frank lefty Koncil. Salts
lieutenant. and Charles Hrubek. alias
Big BIZ Hayes, a member or the
Salts band, early today.
Were in Salts Car.
When tracked down and killed the
two Salts aides were riding in Salts
believe at first that the slayers may
have intended Salts himself as their
victim Koncil was his chauffeur
At the inquests today Salts indicat-
ed that he himself perhaps fears a
similar death by declaring that he was
leaving town at once for West Baden,
Ind. where he for several weeks has
planned vacation trip for his
health
Salts, after the inquest had been
continued until March 10. was releas-
ed from technical custody, although
he said he probably would not be In
town when the inquest is resumed"
k0ncil and Hrubek were killed in
fusillade of revolver, shotgun and ma
chine-gun fire poured upon them
while in their automobile. They man
aged to leap from the riddled machine
q nd attempted to escape. Hrubek was
shot down after he had gone only so
feet. Koncil fell about half q block
from where the car later was found
abandoned.
Many Suspects Sought.
Many suspects are sought, including
three O'Donnell brothers, Mike, Steve
and Percy, long known enemies of
the Salts crowd Ralph Sheldon, an.
other rival, also is sought.
William "Klondike" ODonnell. re.
leased under $4,000 bonds two days
ago, following his capture with three
others while siphoning liquor from q
Government warehouse, was being
hunted for questioning in connection
with the killings. One police theory
Is that the gang war resulted from
the police tip which led to the cap
ture of the four gangsters while
stealing the bonded liquor.
Another gangster victim of the past
"a hours was Benjamin Schneider
ostensibly a real estate dealer, but
also. the police believe, a bootlegger.
He was shot near his home last night.
Police still are seeking some connec.
tion between the shooting of Schneider
and that of the two Salts gaflgsters
few hours later.
