TWELVE ROUND
CONTESTS WILL
LOUISVILLE, Ky., May 27 (by As
sociated Press).—Twelve round no
decision boxing contests under super
vision of a state commission be
%come legal in Kentucky June 15. Foi
years an anti-prizefight law has beer
on the statute books which has op
erated to bar almost any kind of e
ring contest. This measure is stil
f^n effect, but a new law passed by
the last legislature becoming oper
ative in June contains an exemptior
clause.
This provision affords protectior
for clubs and boxers operating undei
a license system in about the same
manner that the state racing com
mission protects race tracks to which
it issues licenses. Gloves are lim
ited to six ounces.
The commission, which is to be
composed of three persons, will worh
out the rules for the conduct oi
matches. It has the power to license
or refuse a license to any club ox
person desiring to promote a contest
It may not issue clienses to a non
resident of the state, and a non-resi
dent is defined as a person who has
not resided in Kentucky for three
consecutive years.
Licenses will cost $500 each. Five
per cent of the gross receipts of each
match must be .set aside for the
state.
The office of boxing commissioner
carries no salary. The expenses an
nually of the commission are limited
to $5,000. This is to include salary
to a secretary and traveling and
other expenses of the commission.
SITE FOR WOOD PULP
MILLS BEING SOUGHT
IN ALASKAN FORESTS
f ___
Alaska as a “Land of Opportunity’’
for paper pulp manufacturers is
rapidly coming into the limelight de
clared E. J. White, Director of the
Territorial Bureau of Publicity in a
statement just made. Every mail
from the south, said Mr. White
brings inquiries from manufacturers
of pulp who are seeking to find mill
sites in the territory.
Recent legislation removing regu
lations heretofore locking up these
resources has been given widespread
notice. American pulp men univer
sally have turned their eyes to the
North and indications strongly point
to Alaska becoming in the not dis
tant future the greatest pulp and
paper producing country of the en
tire country.
In order to satisfy inquiries and
be of every possible assistance in up
building an industry that will add an
nually millions of dollars to Alaska’s
revenues, Mr. White desires to get
into communication with people hav
ing mill sites or knowledge of such,
where ample water power facilities
can be obtained and where suitable
timber can be had. He will do every
thing possible to connect outside cap
ital with holders of all suitable mill
Sites.
SCOUTS' STEADYING INFLUENCE.
Maj. Gen. Littleton W. T. Waller of
the United States marines has watched
the Boy Scouts at work and this is
what he has to say of them:
“If a lad lives up to the scout oath
he must of necessity become a good
citizen, making his mark in Lis gen
eration.
“The record of the graduates from
the scouts to the military service has
been excellent, a record to thrill the
scouts with pride.
“The Boy Scouts of America have
done splendid work in the efforts to
keep up men at the front in good
shape. In all the drives for Liberty
loans their work has been increasingly
valuable. The instruction received by
the lads spells preparedness for good
. citizenship and for the living of clean,
^upright, moral lives.
“I am strongly in favor of the move
ment. especially at this period of un
rest and uncertainty, when vicious
propaganda is doing much to under
mine the content and happiness of our
people. I hope the movement may
wax stronger and stronger year by
year.”
