Flvo boxing bouts, offorlng 30 rounds, have been arranged by tbe committee In charge of the Ameri can Legion smoker to be given by Umpqua post at the armory on tbe evening of Friday, March 27. The main event is to be fought by Joe Coffman of Coqullie and Hilly Breedlove of Myrtle Creek, who are scheduled for 10 three minute rounds. Tloth of these fight eia are well known in the, Btate and have had a great deal of exper ience. Comparative records would show them to be very equally matched. Comet Gibson of Roseburg and Buddy Ambrose of Salem will fight the semi-final, which will be six rounds. Gibson recently received a decision over Austin Pendergrass, who in turn fought a close draw with Ambrose at Eugene. Loral fans will; be interested in the Gibson-Ambrose match as bearing on the feud between Gibson and Pen dergrass.

ROBERT KNAPP WINS HIGH SCHOOL RUN Robert Knapp of Wilbur was the winner of the high school cross country run Wednesday instead of Todd Knapp, as reported. Knapp covered the two and one-half mile course In lit 4 minutes, setting a very fine record for a high acbool ruuuer. YOUNG CORBETT DEFEATS PIRRONE By . . . ItOCER DICK I And, It's down to the final now. I!y "It" I mean of course the state high school basketball tournament at Salem. Tonight Is the climax of the meet, for at 8:30 two crack teams, the Cowboys from Pendle ton and the Vikings from Salem tangle on the spacious Willamette court with the golden banner of state champion for 1M1 dangling temptingly for tho winner. Both teams had the advantage of a favorable draw, each receiving a draw In the first round and thus having to play but two games to reach the finals. So there is no advantage there. Comparative scores with the Portland teams show Pendleton to have quite an edge on dope. Dur ing the regular season Jefferson twice defeated Henson, and yes terday Pendleton won from the Portland champions by a margin of 24 points, while the Capital city team edged out Benson by only 7. Looks rather dark for western Ore gon this year. In the consolation serins, the winner of which received third place in the final standings, Jef ferBon and three other teams are left. I put It that way because the Portlanders have beaten all the others, Astoria, Denson and Halter. However, the time they just did down last yenr's champs, Astoria, and whether they can do It' again, particularly after the devastating defeat administered by the Cow boys of Pendleton last night, is rather a question. Tho winner of that game plays the victor In the Ilonson-lhtker combat for consola tion honors tonight.

Representing approximately 22, 000,000 members of 27 Protestant denominations in America, a ma jority of the committee on mar riage and tbe home published to day a report sayinff such practice Is "vnlld and moral." The report, approved by the ad ministrative committee, was signed by 22 of the 28 members of the sub committee. Three dissented in some respects and three voiced no opinion. Those approving Included Mrs. John D. Rockefeller Jr., a member of the national board of the Young Women's Christian . association; George W. Wickersham, chairman of (lie commission on law enforce ment, and Mrs. John Ferguson, president of tbe national council of Federated Church Women.

Families Held Too Large The committee unanimously agreed "as to tbe necessity." there fore, "for some form of effective control of tho size of the family and spacing of children, and con sequently of control of conception. It is recognized by all churches and all physicians." The causes of such necessity were listed as "too frequent nnd too numerous pregnancies," "eco nomic consideration" In poor fam ilies, and "the problems of ovni' population," Tho committee was also In unani mous agreement that "sex union between husbands and wives as an expression of mutual affection, Is right. This is recognized by the scriptures, by all branches of the church, by social and medical sci ence nnd by the good sense, and idealism of mankind." Morality Questioned On tho method of attaining these alms, however, tho minority group dissented in the 'following words: "In view of tho widespread doubt among Christ ian people of the morality of the use of contra ceptives, and the scruples exper ienced by many in making use of them, it appears to these members of the committee to be (be plain duty of (be Christian church, when control of conception Is "necessary, to uphold the standard of absttu ence as the ideal, recognizing it as counm-l of perfection, and that Christian morals are much more exalted than is geuerally sup posed." Pope Is Quoted The report was criticized In statements by the Klfiht Rev. John J. Dunn, Roman Catholic, vicar general and bishop auxiliary of New York, and by Dr. Frederick II.
