DEMOLAY CONVEN-
TION BIG SUCCESS

According to all reports from var
ious parts Of the state, and especial
ly from the local delegates, the De-
Molay convention held in Butte Fri
day and Saturday of last week was a
wonderful success.
The local delegates were Frank
Bowman, George Thompson and Dan
Baretta. Mr.. Thompson states that
taking it as a whole the convention
was very successful, there being pres
ent about 600 delegates, representing
some 23 accredited chapters from
every section of the state. DR.. w.
c. Witherspoon of Butte, was the
principal speaker of the conclave and
the convention was honored by the
presence of Lewis Lauer, who is the

speak at this convention

lifted on four candidates, they were
Harvey Tiroway, Butte; Frank Per-
ryman, Butte; Vix Shevalier, Mis-
soula, and Leslie Mitchell, Missoula.
This is the highest degree that is
bestowed by the DeMolay order,
there being only eight such degrees
in the state. Ted Viers of the local
chapter is to have this degree be-
slowed upon him sometime in June

where they were to be CHARTERED,
They had to call this girl on the tel
ephone and make a blind date for the
grand ball that was staged in the
evening of the last day. The Red
Lodge boys say that if they had been
given the pick of the whole town they
could not have done better,

ing was re appointed governor for the

KALLIO CROWNED
CHAMP WRESTLER
DEFEATS CARPENTER IN FIN
AIS OF N. B. A. MAT
TOURNEY

Gus Kallio, one-time resident of
Red Lodge was crowned middleweight
champion of the world on Wednesday
evening, April 9, when he defeated
Ray Carpenter of Lancaster, Ohio, In
the finals of the National Boxing As
sociation championship tournament in
a wrestling match, at Columbus,O.
Kallio who lived here for a num-
Der of years, was we'll known and
we'll liked locally. He received his
wrestling training from Farmer
Burns, the famous Omaha wrestler
and teacher. About eight years ago
he left here and went east, periodical
ly word was received from him that
he was gaining quite name for him.
self in the welterweight class, then
it was announced that he had won the
world championship welterweight
title. He held this title for num-
Der of years, and as far as can be
ascertained here, this title was never
taken from him.
About year ago it was announc-
ed at that time that he was preparing
to enter the middleweight field. His
training for this class of wrestler ma
turally caused him to relinquish his
welterweight title, but he made such
a name for himself in the middle
weight class this past year that it
was naturally assumed that he was
champion, although there was no Of
ficial recognition of any champion in
this class. Recently the N B. A.
sponsored an elimination tournament
to determine champion of this class,
and Gus Kallio and Ray Carpenter
were known as the leading contenders
for the title
Kallio won his title right by de-
feating Midget Fisher in Chicago and
Ralph Parcaut in Cincinnati. The
press described Kallio, "as the robot
of the middleweights, a man who
reasons why of every move that he
makes. He is perhaps the brainiest
smartest equipped machine to hold
160-pound laurels in mat history"
In his match with Carpenter, Kali
lilo took the first fall in DC minutes
with a full Nelson, Carpenter Their
came back. "like vertible wild mar
swinging into action with a furious
offensive which was not be denied.
"He literally sprayed the Finn with
headlocks and giant swings, tossing
him around the canvas with an of
fensive which Gus could not stop. II
ended when Carp swung Kallio flat
on his gack with huge swing and
mined him with cross body and arm
lock. Time 81 minutes and A Sec
onds." But in the final round, Kali
Ito, with clever head work, brought
Carpenter to the mat as he rushed
in, and then shared his right arm in
a perfect hammerlock, forcing it up
his back until it seemed it would
break. Carp, game to the last, stood
it as long as he could before he fin
ally conceded, time for the last
round was II minutes, 35 seconds.
1t is not believed that Kallio will
try for any titles, but rather de-
fend his newly acquired title, which
is now recognized as official in 81
states of the union.

TUUL CALLS FOR
PAINTERS FIGHT
Fake Progressives Let
Zausner Take Control

The Building and Construction
Workers Section of the Trade Union
Unity League has issued a state@
ment on the Zausner victory in the
recent painters union elections.
Zausner is a notorious CRATER and
agent of the bosses. He is primar-
lily paint salesman. The state
ment points out that his present
victory was accomplished with the
aid of a well-oiled Zausner machine
which largely controlled the cleo
ton machinery, and permitted over
thousand "repeaters."
But the statement also calls at
tention to the fact that not count
ing the repeaters, only about 5000
of the unions 10000 members here
voted. Most of them were disgust
ed with both the Zausner and the
progressive" slate, and did not
vote at all for day secretary and
business agents. In the locals, some

"Progressivcs" Treachery.
The failure for a real opposition
being shown against Zausner's ma
chine is due, the statement declares,
to the treachery of the "progres-
sives." Last year the left wing
withdrew candidates to please these
"progressives."
During the course of the year the
"progressives" were shown to be
merely self seekers, without any
real enmity to Zausnerism, only to
