CLEGHORN GETS
 DRAW, HARD BOUT

SPOKANE, Wash, Nov. 17.-- Walter Cleghorn, of Alaska, and Jimmie Cottrell, of Spokane, wei terweights slugged and hammered six rounds to a draw last night in the main event of a boxing tour nament. The decision was unpopn- lar with a large portion of the crowd which apparently expected Cleghorn to be awarded the de- cision.
 Both fighters landed clean, hard blows, but those of the Alaskan seemed more effective.

PUSH WEBSTER CASE:
Indictment Sought After
Court Discharge.

Charge of failure to stop after an
accident, one of three on which
Irving Webster, 1130 w. Thirty
First ST., publisher of the Indiana
Journal, was discharged in Municipal
Court Saturday afternoon by Special
Judge Thomas G. Whallon, will be
presented the Marion County grand
jury. Carl Vandiver, deputy pros
ecutor, said today.
Under the Indiana law, failure to
stop after an accident is felony
and penitentiary offense. Webster
also was freed of charges of
drunkenness and driving while in
toxicated.
Webster testified to striking the
car of J. E. Ryles, 70 S. Sherman
Dr., and said he heard the scraping
noise, stopped his car and seeing no
damage drove on. He later was
arrested by Ryles and Policeman
Bertram Walker at Pleasant Run
Blvd. and Butler Ave, after a long
chase.
Judge Whallon said he did not
consider the damage to the hub cap
and fender of the other car serious
enough to be classed as felony.

Henry G. Heinz of Atlanta, presi-
dent Of Kiwanis, will address the

speaker Monday night at a religious
musical attended by 10000 delegates
and Seattle citizens was John H.
Moss of Milwaukee.
Each nation possesses its prob
lens and ours of the present period
are especially perplexing due to a
VIDE variety of causes" Moss said,
Says World Is Better
Contributing factors to the prob
lens are the greed for gold, increase
OF human wants, excess excitement
lessening of parental control, loosen
ing OF moral restraints, advocacy of
companionate marriage, distribution
OF indecent literature, SUPER
abundance of legislation, lack of re-
Elective meditation, wholesale dis
semination of crime news, and the
disregard for law.
Nature constantly is preaching
and teaching us the wholesomeness
OF life but we lose its message
amidst the deafening noises of a
restless world"
Moss added however that retro
erosion was not one of his accepted
theories. Il maintain that the world
Is better today than ever before" he
said, "The most casual analysis of
the advance in learning, the devel-
opment of inventive genius, and the
progress in the arts and sciences
provides positive proof of progress
sion."

WOMEN MAY Join
IN CHURCH MEET
Resolution to Allow Them an
Official Part Adopted by
Episcopal Council.

For the first time In the history OF
the Episcopal Church women Will take
an official part in the General Conven-
ton which will assemble here October
10, II the convention approves a resolu-
ton Just adopted by the nationai coun-
Gil Of the church. The resolution asks
the General Convention Ito give the
privileges of the floor at the time OF the
Joint sessions to the official representa-
tives OF the woman's auxiliary"
Two of these Joint sessions have been
requested by the council, on October
II and Is, for the reception of depart
mental reports and the discussion OF
fiscal matters.
While the woman's auxiliary, which
has combined membership of 50O,OoO
in oil parts of the world, holds Its trl-
ennial conclaves contemporaneously
with the General Convention, the latter
body is made up under the church con-
stitutlon of the House of Bishops, and
House of Deputies composed OF presby-
ters and laymen. Under the present
church laws, therefore, 1t would be I'M
possible for woman to occupy seat
in the general body. The council now
proposes that the bars be let down 10
the extent which will permit official
delegates to the auxiliary meeting TO
sit in the Joint sessions and participate
in the proceedings.
However slight, this suggested move
is regarded as q step forward In the
formal recognition of the services OF
women In the church. In several OF
the diocesan conventions of the church
the right of women to sit as delegates
with voting privileges is already recog..
nized Women also serve with full
privileges as members Of the various
departments which act In an advisory
capacity to the council.
