NEWCOMERS TO
SHOW WARES AT
ARENA TONIGHT

Fight fans are planning to storm
the arena tonight and indications
point to speedy show from start
to finish. The card "Penny' Rich
mond has booked should prove a
thriller right from the first gong
to the last.
The card reads as follows;
Main cvcnt-Johnny Torres of
Ocean Park against AL Carrcon of
Los Angeles.
Semi-final--Stcvc Stitch of Los
Angeles against Herb Wand of
Fresno.
Special bout-Andrew Brooks Of
Imperial against Tommy Shull of
FL Centro.
Preliminary-Monie Hill of Ell
Centre against Trudy Hamilton Of
Irawlcy.
1t was necessary to make a last
minute substitution in the opening
bout. Vincent Solano, better known
as Young Kid Mex, was called to
Fresno due to the illness of his
father and will be unable to appear,
Trudy Hamilton Of Brawley meet
ing Monte Hill in his stead.
The boys all arrived i'll III Cen
tro late yesterday and are prepared
to do battle tonight. "Bobby' La
Sale, speedy coast boy, was among
the arrivals. He made the trip to be
with Johnny Torres, a stablemate,
for tonight s fracas.
Torres has been going along at
a fast clip lately but in his battle
tonight he will meet plenty of OPP
position. Al Carrcon is Il fighting
Filipino and no mistake and should
make the going rough for the Ocean
Park boy. Torres is banking on his
ability to hit to carry him to vic
tOLy.
The making of the fight rests
mostly in just what the semi final
boys will do. This bout presents two
rev faces III this vicinity and while
the boys both have good regulations
IL northern districts, their ability
TO give fans Il run for the money
must be exhibited.
i'tilich is Il slight favoritc to win
over Wand.
Plenty Of action is assured in the
special bout when the lanky Andrew
brooks meets the aggressive Tommy
Shull Tommy will have lot of
reach and height to get over in to-
night $ milling.
Monte Hill and Trudy Hamilton
have claShcd before and have al
ways provided plenty of fireworks.
Penny Richmond has an
nounced that the war tax on tickets
has been eliminated beginning to-
night.

The Loss of ObregOn.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)


 Ii is peculiarly distressing to the people of the United States that the dastardly murder of the Mexican President-elect removes very real friend of this Government and people Obregon, perhaps, more than any other man in Mexican public life understood Government and people. He was rough soldier but possessed the essen- tial qualifications of statesman in eminent de- gree He understood his people and the value of his own nation. He knew the necessity |of development and welcomed capital; strong military cheftan, he earnestly desired to see his land at peace in the fullest sense. He abored to that end. His energy and constructive ability enabled him to make greater progress for Mexico Tn a material sense and to achieve more valid and stable status of liberty than had been possible for any of his swiftly succeeding pre- deeessors to do. He was the militant Madero, the indomitabe Diaz of wider vision
 In land where revolution thrives where personal ambitions and interests lead so many men to strive for political supremacy and power. regardless Of the real interests and welfare of the Natoh, II Will be difficult indeed to find man wise enough, and strong enough, to take the place of Alyaro Obregon.

The Miracle Age.
(Cincinnati Enquirer )

The present is the age of miraces-miracles no longer when the genius of man has crystalized into fact some ancient dream hope of imagin- ing of perhaps, far-visioned poet.
 Televsion draws Radio owners soon the movies-see and hear what is going on in any part of the world.
 The Bell Telephone laboratories have just demonstrated an improved sunlight teleyision as they move about about the size of a boxing ring. Previously television had been re- stricted to recording more than head and shoulders.
 This recent demonstration showed man playing tennis, boxing, golfing and going through other motions the roof of the laboratories, all of which was witnessed in dearest detail on another floor of the building about two inches by three.
 The rest will be comparatively simple and easy. Tomorrow television will be common place the telephone and the flying machine, realized major miracles of our day.
 This means further revolution in the life habits of the people of the world; it would seem to that will be rendered difficult and that the opportunities of peace are still further to be enlarged. What 1t will mean to the private life of the world scarcely can be ex- pressed. Time and space will mean, but little to those who separated from another. Whatever happens people may be in constant intimate touch with another. It is all very wonderful, and yet tomorrow, it will be accepted as part of the ordinary routine of our daily life!

DIR. MILAN FOR FEDERAL
 PARLIAMENT.

plan is now on feet to bring about an agreement to elect by exclamation retiring Pre- mier MacLean of British Columbia to the Domin- ion Parliament to succeed pr. Tolmie Conserva- tive leader who will succeed Premier MacLean at the head of the British Columbia Government as a result of the recent Provincial election. pr Tolmie resigned his Victoria seat in the Federal Parliament to become leader of the Conservative Party in the Province The Dominion Parla- ment contains a Liberal majority, and it is sug- gested that British Columbia ought to have larger and more influential representation at Ottawa in the Liberal Party
 The Prince Rupert News, commenting on the situation and the plan, says:
 It has been suggested that an ar
 rangement be made between the two parties by which Premier MacIean shall
 be sent to Ottawa to represent Victoria in place of Dr. Tolmie and that all the new Ministers in the Tollmie Cabinet shall be allowed to return without contest
 The people have expressed their views and it would be most foolish for Liberals to attempt to obstruct the formation of Cabinet by the other party. Also it is suggested that British Columbia needs more Liberal representa-
 ton with a Liberal Government in power at Ottawa Dr. MaeLean would be
 who would command respect in the Nations capital and would doubtless
 be given a Cabinet position at the earliest opportunity.
 Doing away with contests in all
 these consttuencies would save the country a good deal of money.

ATTACKS ON SMITH HURTING
 HOOVER.

Republican leaders fearful that extrava- gant and untruthful attacks the character of Gov. Smith aiding the New York Executive in the Presidential campaign. They hae done their best to smother the attacks mostly whisp- cred from mouth to but here and there breaking out into public print utterance, that involve his character and good faith They recall the outcome of the attacks of young Col. Theodore Roosevelt when the latter was candidate against Gov. Smith in New York and which, admittedly, contributed to the latter's majority and the elimination of the scion of the Great Teddy as a political factor.
 The political preachers are probably the most persistent vilfers of Gov Smith and mst care less regarding the authenticity of their attacks An example is the following. among many of the same class from the "cipsheet" of the Methodist Board of Temperance, Prohibition and Public Morals:
 Governor Al Smith of New York
 and will be defeated, not because
 he heads the Democratic ticket, but be-
 cause he is the candidate of the bi-
 partisan disqualification cabal.
 The people do not have to be told how unfair is such attack, for they know that Gov Smith and that wants it back. He has said that the Volstead Act ought to be modified in the , interest of temperance and law and order and the people know that Gov. Smith always voices his exact position on all questions. That is one of the foundations of his unexampled popularity and is potent factor in his wonderful achieve ments.
 w. w. Jermane associate editor of the Seattle Times and strong supporter of MT. Hoover in recent article in his paper declared that if at- Jacks continue Gov. Smith involving his pro- hbition views, his religion, his character and the circumstance that his forebears were immigrants tone of his grandparents and two great-grand- parents came from Ireland) it will mean that MT. Hoover will have a difficult time of it to win. He continued:
 The religious issue will cut both

 ablest supporters, and it is founded upon
 their knowledge of human nature. Any

 ists would perhaps lose the support of

 That the Coolidge record with the prosperit that has prevailed under the Coolidge Admin istration is the ground that will be most favor able to Mr. Hoover the Republican leaders we know. Perhaps Gov Smith recognized that als when he sent the message to the Houston Conven tion that has been accepted as challenge make the Yolstead Act the issue. Republicans politicians and business alike are hopin that MT. Hoover in his letter of acceptance migh be able to side-track the radicals who are doin their worst to make the campaign dirty an bitter.
