Congressman Goodwin from Mime
sofa, has issued a request to all
members of civic and commerce as
sociations, rotarians, Kiwanians, lions
and various chambers of commerce,
civic organizations and individuals to

1T is only with the fullest cooper
alton of every one concerned that we
can hope to bring to successful con-
clusion this tremendous task of list
ing the population of the United

cannot be stressed too strongly. Not
only is the census made to determine
the number of people in this country
but more important, the reapportion-
ment of the House of representatives
will be decided on these figures said
the Minnesota member.
In addition to this, he pointed out,
data on unemployment, manufactur-
ing and agriculture will be gathered.
These figures will form the basis of
much research work by various gov
eminent departments for many years
to come.
Concluding, Congressman Goodwin
stated, Il know that the people in my
district will work in perfect harmony
with those designated to perform~the
work of taking the census as they
realize the Importance of the work
that is being undertaken. He also
said that approximately two weeks
is allowed to take the census in the
cities while four weeks has been al
lotted to gather statistics in rural
sections.

the heavyweight championship when
Jeffries retired, fought Bill Squires of
Australia in San Francisco, Joe
Thomas, the middleweight champion
and the Pride of the Pacific Coast"
met an unknown, who gave the name
Of Stanley Ketchel, at Marysville, Calf.
All of the experts attended the Burns
Squires bout, for that was a heavy
weight championship affair. 1t turned
out to be the farce of the century.
Squires, on the force of sheer ballyhoo,
was to / favorite. But few Sec
onds after the opening bell the stocky
Burns dropped him for the count with
blow on the temple.
In the meantime the admirers
OF Joe Thomas were astounded to
learn that the Thomas-Ketchel
fight resulted in draw. got
some of the narrowing details the
next day. It seemed that the I'M
known was very good indeed. Early
in the fight he stretched Thomas
on the mat with a peculiar shifting
blow and Thomas was quite out.
But sitting behind the timekeeper
was a man who had a small fortune
bet on Thomas at very heavy odds.
This gambler happened to have with
him q gold-headed cane. With great
presence Of mind he reached over the
timekeeper and banged the bell. The
seconds jumped into the ring and
dragged Thomas to his corner, where
they revived him with salts and water.
In the meantime Old Man Pande-
monium himself reigned. It was dis
covered that the round had a full min
ute and a half to 60. The fight was
resumed after Thomas was thoroughly
revived and the champion managed to
evade that shift for the rest of the
bout. They gave him draw, for it
was an unwritten law in California
in those days that a champion would
not be deprived Of his title while he
was conscious
The second fight was an epic bout
for middlewoights. Ketchel, as I In
sist, was the handsomest of the fight
ing animals, and Thomas, too. was a
fine-looking athlete Of the type of Gene
Tunney. This bout, scheduled for 40
rounds, lasted %. AS recall it, each
man was down seven times during that
battle.

bout with a telephone cap on my

Ketchel on the point Of the jaw and
stretched him motionless on the
mat. The timekeeper had counted
eight before muscle moved in the

sprang up at nine" bewildered
and grosgy, but he weathered the
round. "
Toward the end Thomas was being
knocked down regularly, and each
