Will Be One of Three to Study the Question of Sidewalks Along the Highways - The Two Others Will Be Coroner Phelan of Bridgeport and Samuel Ward I. Alling of New Haven
TORRINGTON BILL
 WAS DEFEATED
fI,enocrat stan Manl

Hartford, March 13-Ex-Mayor Martin Scu1ly of Waterbury. Coro- ner John J. Phelan of Bridgeport and Samuel Ward T. Alling of New Haven will form the personnel of g special commission to be named shortly by Governor Wilbur Cross tc investigate the necessity of side- walks along the state highways Of Connecticut. The measure, which makes possible the appointment of q commission and which may even- tually lead to the designation of safeguards for pedestrians. was tn- troduced iato the general assembly by Senator Joseph H. Lawlor. It r5et with the endorsement of many representatives and senators and organizations, including the Wash ington Hill Community club of Wat trhury.
 After a determined battle for the past four years Senator Lawlor suc-. ceeded in obtaining the necessary endorsement of his bill. The ap- railing number of deaths on state highways due to pedestrians being run down by speeding autos prompt cd the senat0f from Waterbury to propose that sidewalks be erected or designated as Q means of protection for the man, woman or child walk irg along a state highway.
 It is expected that the commits s,on will spend considerable time in determining the need and the ap- proximate cost and file its report as early as possible with the legisla- ture. It is also possible that the commission may include five per- sons, instead of the three, whose names have been informally men toned, but are expected to be off, cially confirmed within few days.

death, If tales of his training prow- ess are half way correct. He is a husky, willing lad, and is about even with Murphy from the angle of experience.
 The two men will enter the ring without odds on either. Miles is really in good shape, better than usual, and if he doesn't win it won't be because of lack of condi- ton. He is fast on his feet and with his hands, He is probably a shiftier fighter than Richmond, but his punches do not seem to be as powerful
 Lawrence Is Determined
 Kid Lawrence, husky Indian bat l tier from the precinct of Hoonah. is out after Nelson's scalp tonight. Sammy has edged out the Hoonah boy in their past battles, not by such wide margins, either, but far enough to enter the ring decided favorite.
 Lawrence, tired of taking the short end of the purse, has assured Matchmaker Dolan he vii put Sammy to sleep. In their last previous fight, Lawrence did too much covering and let Nelson run away with aggressiveness. This time it's going to be different, ac- cording to the "Keed," and if there is any covering, it will be Sammy's doing.
 Hitter Vs. Boxer
 Sailor" Sharkey, an ex-Coast Guardsman and husky southpaw with the corkscrew windup, facing Louis Nabalis in the special event, will have to travel at top speed to meet the little brown brother on even terms. Nabalis is a speed merchant with lots of boxing abil- ity. He hasn't shown anything like Sharkey's hitting power in his for mer bouts here. If the Sailor 1 can find the target he has a fine chnace to win by a kayo, but if it goes the full distance, Louis ought to nose out on points. | Phillip Joseph and Pete Balardi, lightweights, and clever mitt sling CTS, trot out their wares in the five round battle Little is known about their ring ability, but Dolan is satisfied they will furnish the fans with plenty of highpowered movement.

MAYOR HUDSON URGES SUPPORT
 FOR RED CROSS
Heads Enrolment Here To- day = Issues Proclama-
 ton, Annual Roll Call

The first citizen to renew his membership in the American Red Cross for 1882 was Mayor Thomas B. Judson, who was enrolled today by Mrs. H. I. Lucas, thus officially opening the campaign In this city. At the same time the Mayor issued a proclamation in which he urged the residents of this city to lend their undivided support to the hu- manitarian work of the Red Cross.
 A total of 1900 members has been set by the national organiza- tion as the goal for the local chap ter, according to B. D. Stewart, chairman of the membership cam paign, who regards this goal as challenge to the civic pride of this community
 The Mayors official proclama- ton follows:
 T am glad to direct the atten- ton of the citizenship to the An nual Roll Call of the American Red Cross and to urge that all rally to the support of this great humanitarian institution.
 May remind our people that the Red Cross exists solely by in- dividual memberships. Without these memberships it would be un- able to function in time of need. The carrying out of this extensive program would be impossible with out the public's support. Such humanitarian service must not be slackened by failure of the people to respond quickly and generously.
 This year marks the Fiftieth year of service given by the Ameri- can Red Cross to humanity. Every adult in Juneau can give freely of support in full confidence that each dollar placed with the Red Cross will be many times multi piled in usefulness"
