LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Nov. "a
O.SO.-Arkansas today was in
the divorce business in opposition
to Reno.
The Supreme Court, by a vote
of five to two, allowed the States
new 90-day divorce law to go
into effect, overruling a manda-
mus action brought by the Home
Protection Association, which de-
manded a referendum.
The 90-day law was passed at
the last legislature as a means
Of raising additional revenue. It
was aimed especially at Reno,
which since has cut the residence
period to only six weeks provid-
ing a divorce is not contested.
The new divorce colony, it is
anticipated, will develop about
Hot Springs.

Opposition to the proposed elective
school board is voiced by the faculty Of
Eastern High School in resolutions just
addressed to Senator Capper, chairman
of the Senate District Committee, and
Representative Mary #. Norton, chair

politics into the school system.

68 to 7, asserts:
Whereas the public schools OF the
District CT Columbia, under the present
system of appointment of the members
of the Board of Education by the Jus

period of steady progress; and

jRISKO EASILY WINS
 NOD OVER LEVINSKY; | WINSTON DEFEATED

Boston, April 22-(UP)-Johnny Risko, Cleveland heavyweight, who hopes to regain the distinction he has lost, took a step forward last night by defeating King Levinsky of Chicago in 10 rounds at Boston Arena.
 Risko weightd 192 1-2 pounds and I.evinsky 183.
 Levinsky was not credited with a single round although the fifth and sixth were called even.
 Risko gave the Chicagoan a ter rife pounding with both fists. He cepended largely on his right for power blows but his jabbing 1efts to the body were not soft. It was the right hand, pounding incessant- !ly at his opponents mid-section, that made Levinsky gasp as each blow landed.
 Several times Levinsky attempted a counter-offensive that was rem ence. The bout was a bruising affair with Levinsky getting most of the bruises.
 Through the Ropes
 In an eieht-round semi-final George Pavelick, 177, Cleveland, won the decision from Unknown Winston, I82, Waterbury, Conn. In the first roune Winston knocked Favelick through the ropes but there was no count.
 Tn the other preliminaries Johnny Walker, 148. Boston, lost to Bob Sarno, 14s 1-2, Chelsea, (4); John- ny Delano, 135, Boston, lost to Ed Johnny Hanlon, 133 1-2, Lynn, (4l: Gus Brown, 169 1-2, Canton, defeat ed Joe Gainor, 163, Rochester, N H..
