PLANS COMPLETED

Last Monday evening the NOn-
Commissioned Officers Club of Bat
, terry +, 19Sth c. A. e. met and dis
cussed final arrangements for the
amateur boxing bouts to be held in
the Community Building tonight.
Friday, April 9th. The secretary.
Private Charles Hagaman, reported
that through the efforts of Clement j..

been successful in making arrange

Baltimore to referee the bouts. Ed
is a veteran at the fight game. and at
the present time is official referee

dates back to 1882 when Leo Nc
Carly was promoting outlaw fights
at Elk Mills. and Ed was umpire at
baseball games in that vicinity. and
they decided an umpire could just
as we'll be referee. thus the embryo
of successful fight career as ref
cree. His first job was the task of
officiating at an-outlaw fight in an
old mill so full of posts that the
ring was Sx22. but the size did not
matter because none of the fighters
had been in a ring before. His ca
reer as an outlaw fight referee was
progressing rapidly until the Mary
land State Boxing Commission forced
Ed to take out referees license
and he was Immediately graduated
from an outlaw referee at $40 a
night. to a respectable licensed ref
cree at much less. This, however.
was the real beginning of his glori-
fled and successful career as ref
cree. Ed is just back from working
the Southeastern Conference matches
in New Orleans. he has worked in
this conference every year since 1928

Two bills designed to help balance
the budget and avert a general fund

Wednesday afternoon. One author
ICES loan of $500, 900 from the high

State will issue to the State High

other authorizes transfer of $780,

would be placed in the general fund.
The plan to borrow money from
the highway fund, S500,000 next year

declared by Governor Richard c.

years from the gas tax revenue to
the general fund.

The diversion from the school
