LEGISLATION IS
(By Associated Press)
SANTA Fe, N. M.. April 11. — Wo
men of New Mexico are pleased at the
passage of laws affecting women,
children, sanitation and education
which were enacted by the last ses
sion of the New Mexico legislature
which recently ended.
While all efforts to procure the
passage of a suffrage amendment to
the state constitution, or Its submis
sion to the people failed, yet the legis
lature gave women a wider recogni
tion than they have received hereto
fore by endorsing the governor’s ap
pointments of three to various state
boards.
Mrs Josie Loekard, of Colfax coun
ty, for some time superintendent of
schools in that division, was con
firmed sh a member of the state board
of education. Mrs. B. C. Crampton,
of Raton, was made a regent of the
state reform school of Springer, while
Mrs. ilallett Itaynolds was placed on
the board of regents of the New
Mexico Normal University.
The juvenile delinquent law was
broadened to permit district Judges to
take control of children, who are not
delinquent, from parents or guardians
held unfit to care for them.
Another law of special interest to
women is that making an annual
"clean-up" day compulsory In villages,
while still another ends a long-fought
battle against the fly menace hy pro
viding penalties for exposure of meat
in butcher shops to dust or flies.

(By United Brens)
NEW YOKK, April 11. — Several
years ago a young electrician trawled
through the ropes of a ring in Kansas
City, Mo., and went through the mo
tion of a scrap with Sailor Brando.
Previous to this battle, the youth
fill electrician had been earning $25
a week at Excelsior Springs, Mo., by
acting ns punching bag for Jim Elynn,
the Pueblo fireman. Elvnn was spend
ing his nfternoons battering the elec
trician's face, and the most enjoyable
part of the day — for Elynn — was
the fact that he closed both his youth
ful opponent's eyes every afternoon.
Bob Devere, the youthful electric
ian, hung around Kansas Pity for a
long time, fighting now and then and
picking up a little money. One night
an old time fight fan saw him in ac
tion, and isdnting his finger at the
husky youth, declared that there stood
a future heavyweight champion of the
world.
"If he takes the right sort of care of
himself and is given the right sort of
management, he will be on top before
many years have passed. Remember
what I told you.”
Maybe the old fight fan made it a
little strong, but it Is interesting to
note the climb of the youth.
He came to New York and had a
few alleged fights around the small
clubs in the metropolis, and then one
day they matched him with Jim Elynn.
Elynn grinned when he heard of the
match.
"That's the kid I used to spar with
at Excelsior Springs," he said. “He's
got a stout heart, but I'll beat him
Bure.”
Devere was carefully conditioned
for this bout. He went into it with
instructions to use his left hand at
every opportunity on the fireman. It
was the first time he had ever at
tempted to do any damaging punching
with that hand.
He used his left with a jab and he
hooked with It. Between times he
rammed home his right with an up
percut that had Elynn's face split
from his forehead to his chin. In all
nis battles it is possible the Pueblo
Iron man never took a more thorough
beating — Devere, the former pupil
of the formidable Flynn, left the ring
without a scratch.

WOMEN TO CENSOR MOVIE
FILMS IN KANSAS
(By United Press)
TOPKKA, April 11. — The nen1
Kansas film censorship board Is made
np entirely of women. In the person
nell of the new board Governor Cap
per has retained but one member of
(lie old board, Miss Carrie Simpson
of Paola, and added two new mem
hers. They are Mrs. J. M. Miller of
Council Grove, and Mrs. K. I,. Short!
of Kansas City, Kan. Of the pm re
quesls for appointments less than a
dozen were from men.
According to gossip In Topeka, the
administration of the board Is to be
anything but smooth If the censorship
follows the line of the old board. The
new censorship law, besides raising
the salary of the chairman to $1,800,
and the other two members to ll.AOO,
permits the film companies to make
appeals to the courts Instead of the
old appeal hoard composed of the
im - ~~.~..
governor, the attorney general and the
secretary of state.

It is stated that many of the Alaska

ployed for several years past.
