.RANLES FAVORED
to- WIN BATTLE
IN BORDER RING

Tomorrow night Dick Ramics
meets the "acid test - insofar rs he
win attempt to keep intact the rePu-
tation he has built up among boxing
fans Of the valley. The San Diego
Mexican welter takes ON for 10
rounds Or less at the CaleXico Amer
lean Legion stadium no less formid-
able an opponent than Irish Artie
sullivan of San Francisco.
Irish Artie brings quite a rcputa.
ticn to the border as a glove singer.
and tits said he packs a k. o. wallop.
His record would indicate he will
give Ramies plenty of trouble and
probably stow him away for the
evening.
However. Artie is not the favorite
as he is practically an unknown
while border fans know from eX-
perience the ability of the Mexican.
1t would not be surprising to see the
boys enter the ring at about even
money.
The semi-windup scheduled for
six rounds. but which is not likely
to go that far, is between Bobby
Jones and Jesus Jabuco, couple of
l22 Founders. Jones is more eX-
perienced than Jabuco but both pack
terrific punches and ii is not a re
mote possibility that one or both
will visit the canvas. Jones will
have to be given the pre-battle edge,
however.
The two fours are well matched
with Pilino Kilat, FL Centre Fill
pino facing De La Fuerte in the spe-
cial and Pete Casa tackling Rod
riquez in the curtain raiser.

 It was a plain, unvarnished busi- ness propositions; and the stylists chuckled at their commercial perspicacity.
 But 10. behold, and what not. some women object 10 the change. They have begun to inquire as to whether anyone has tho God-given right to tell them what they should wear. Although there is no unity on the subject, the fact that there are some women. and not an inconsider- able number, who are inclined to re- fuse to follow the commands of the style bosses on the Seine, is at least significant. Many of them, indignant and irritated, have written acridly composed letters 10 the papers. It has become evident that some wom- en are going to divorce themselves from the style autocrats and do as they please about il, Mere man, who long ago refused to take style cX- perts seriously cannot help conclud- ing that women actually are getting more like men every.

LONG SKIRTS OR SHORT

How short or how long q woman'3 skirt may be is not the business Of mere man. Of course, the male of the species usually has good eyes and he has noticed for some years that skirts were shorter than they were in the good old days when they trailed along the sidewalks. But even that was none of his business. The girls manfestly didn't wear the short skirts to please every Tom, Dick and Harry they might meet; rot at all. They only wore them that way because that was the style; and anyway, it was an evidence of that newfound freedom that has come to the female Of the species.
 The short skirts had so many ad- vantages that our wives, sisters and sWeethearts seem to have taken them for granted. No one in his senses, until about a few months ago, thought a return to the longer skirts would be attempted.
 But over in Paris there are stylists who believe they possess the Divine right, or something like it, to "de- cree" what kind of clothes women the world over should wear Recent ly they decided that business needed a hyperdermic shot and naturally concluded that the way to WOO in- creased prosperity was 10 make a radical change in styles. Then, they reasoned, every woman would have to buy new dresses. or gowns, and there would be an end 10 the habit of middle class women in chang ing" raiment without actually buying

MIR, THSON OPTIMISTIC

Some persons believe what they like to believe; in fact, they seem to be in the majority. Congressman Tilson, for instance, likes to believe that the coming session of Congress will do better by the tariff than the one just ended. After all, that wouldn't be very difficult. It will at least pass some kind of bill, which the past special session failed 10 ac- complish.
 When one analyses what the Con- necticut congressman declared in his interview, however, one finds that the chief change he thinks will come is the elimination of the debenture plan from the tariff bill, which was injected into it by the Senate. The House, the leader declared, will never consent to the debenture plan in the bill. This, however. is nothing new. l ne deDenture plan was thrown into the bill by the Insurgents mere ly to help smash mp the machinery and in the expectation that the House would stumble over it and cause enough delay 10 prevent the bill from getting through before December.
 Mistakes" made by both houses will be eliminated in the coming session the congressman declares. The House passed a bill with high rates; is the congressman willing to admit there were any mistakes in the schedules? Or does he mean to imply that only the Senate made mistakes? The House bill certainly met with the approval Of industrial ists who saw no particular mistakes in il, except possible that some of

 Sturdy little thing, isn't it? Just look at those legs"
 Well, I really couldn't say, but to me. Shc-Oh, is it?-he looks exactly like his mother. That nose, for instance"
 Honestly, I never saw anything like it in my life."
 You know, most babies at this age don't look like anything. But this one certainly looks like some- thing"

 My, what a long baby. Hes go- ong to be a big, tall man"
 'I'll just Let you're proud of him, aren't you? Who wouldn't be, that s what I'd like to know?"
 Just look into those eyes there's something so, we'll sort of spiritual in them, if you know what I mean.'
 When you come right down to It. there's nothing quite so remarkable as biology, is there?"
 If there are enough people stand ing foolishly around, you can get by with merely shaking your head and smiling fatuously at the ex- hibit. The parents, being parents will invariably put the happicst in- depreciation on your effort.

AT THE SOUTH TURN

Without doubt, the weak spot in the regulation of traffic around Central park is at the south end of the park, where the trolley cars swing around the southern extremity of the green. Autom obles, endeavoring to pass to the left of the trolleys, are susceptible of being damned as the trolley makes it's turn. Again a squeeze" took place at the spot, re- sulting in damages to the automo- bile.
 Of course, a driver ought to un- derstand the layout and custom of the trolley cars in swinging around that point of the triangle, especial ly when there is warning sign there with letters large enough tor all to read. But what are signs or signals to the man in a hurry. Every day sees near-accidents at the corner, and trolley operators are hard put to get their right of way most of the time.
 It might be possible for the traffic department to think Up a new scheme at the spot. Some of the present difficulty is due to the com- plete reliance upon signs and mechanical signals. With a traffic policeman there during the rush hours it is safe to forecast that everything would work to perfection. There is nothing like the wave of traffic officers hand to indicate whats what at the right moment.
