lowed to be carelessly slurred.
There is a decided tendency toward
careless enunciation in the English
language. Exact pronunciation of
Latin words should make one con-
scious Of any careless habits that
may have been acquired in the
English speech.
The next essential in mastering
this objective is the daily accurate
memorization and building up of a
good vocabulary upon which to
base the declension or infection of
nouns, pronouns, adjectives, and
the conjugation Of verbs.
The correct forms of the parts of
speech in Latin are determined by
the endings. The case endings OF
nouns, pronouns, and sadjectives
which determine the use of these
words in the sentence, and the per
sonal endings of verbs which de
termine the voice, mood and tense

which will have an invaluable In

The memorization of vocabulary,
declensions, and conjugation will
probably cease to function after
the study Of school Latin has
ceased but the second and greater
objective will have an enduring In

Miss Ranstad Contributes In
teresting Article as Ninth
of Series

The English language cannot be
fully appreciated without a study
of the Roman or Latin language
from which at least sixty per cent
of it's words are derived. The Ro-
nance languages-Italian, French,
Spanish, Portuguese, Rumanian =
and to a large extent, English, are
all indebted to the Romans for the
majority of their words.
The erroneous remark has often
been made that Latin is a dead
language. Anyone who hears this
statement should accept it cum
grano sails with a grain Of salt).
It is true that as spoken Ian
guage, Latin is no longer used, but
as language which has been large
ly responsible for the existence of
the Romance languages and the
English language, it possesses last
ing influence.
The immediate objective Of the
study Of Latin is the development
of the ability to read and under
stand Latin. This necessitates a
knowledge Of the elements of the
language; namely, the vocabulary,
the forms, and the syntax or SEN
tence structure, consisting of cor
rect grammatical arrangement of
words and their harmonious rela-
tionships.
In the achievement Of the first or
immediate objective, the correct
pronunciation Of the Latin word
which is learned according to rules
Of division into syllables and rules
of accent, ayakens the student to
a keener sense of enunciation. The
Romans gave every syllable its due
Importance. Not one syllable is al

BIC ALEXANDRIA
ARENA PLANNED
Signing of Virginia Boxing
Bill Presages Plant
to Seat $1,000.
BY FRANCIS E. STAN.

4 N OUTDOOR boxing arena
" capable of seating upward
~ of $4,000 spectators was
4 a virtually assured in Alex
andria today following the sign
ing of the Virginia professional
boxing bill late last night by
Gov. George c. Peery.
With few changes the same hands
who have guided and backed Port
ner's Arena, indoor fight plant at
Alexandria, for the last three years
will manage the outdoor arena, it
has been announced The site of
the new outdoor fistic emporium will
be Baggetts Stadium.
For some years the large field has
been used for amateur and semi
professional base ball. With the ex-
mond. the playing field at Baggetts
Stadium is regarded as the best in
this sector.
The signing Of the pro ring meas
ure by Gov. Peery last night came as
no surprise to proponents Of the bill,
which was introduced by Delegate
Ralph H. Daughton of Norfolk and
passed through the recently-ad-
journed Virginia House and Senate a
few weeks ago. The Daughton meas
ure is patterned after the model
Wisconsin boxing law, and among
the provisions attached is one pro-
hibiting fight clubs in existence less
than year from staging shows. Also
they must be incorporated under
Virginia laws and managed by Vir-
ginians. A local option clause also is
included, under which political sub
divisions or governing bodies thereof
must approve before boxing will be
permitted in counties.
The new outdoor arena in Alex
andria will be unable to open until
Midsummer. however, for under the
Virginia laws the bill will not go into
effect until 90 days after it has been
signed by the Governor. This will
leave the nearby Maryland fight club,
Twin City Arena, a clear field for
District favor until the 80 days have
elapsed.
With professional gloveslinging now
legal in the Old Dominion, it is ex-
pected that Gov Peery shortly will
choose three men from different points
of the State to serve on the Virginia
Boxing Commission and an executive
secretary. The latter alone will re-
ceive a salary, the compensation being
listed as $1,000 year
Among leading candidates for post
on the commission is Jack Tulloch Of
Alexandria and Johnny La Rowe, box
ing coach of the University Of Virginia
Others are John Blake and Charles
Hamilton of Richmond. c. r. Williams
of Roanoke and Tom Haynes of Nor
folk
Dave Miller, graduate manager OF
athletics at the University OF Rich

leading aspirants for the post of ex-
ecutive secretary. Another is Bob

The Big League Gamble.

ONE reason for the keener than
" usual interest in the next two
pennant races is the gamble

Star players have been scattered all
over the map. Teams have been
broken up and remade. The Giants
and the Senators may appear to have
an edge, but no one feels sure about 1t.
Almost anything can happen this
Spring 6nd Summer and the crowds
at large get this feeling.
There is the gamble of Babe Ruth
and the Yankee pitching staff-the
gamble Of the Giant pitching staff
whether it will be up to the 1888
brand-the gamble Of the Red Sox
with Grove, Walberg and Bishop
added-just series Of CANDLES for
the first weeks at least.
After that. the hope that springs
eternal in the base ball breast may
begin to wither in many spots around
