Proposition To Make Sluggers Of Il
linois Wimen And Girls.
CHICAGO, Feb. k-An Evans
ton Club has gone on record in fa
vor of instruction of girls in the man
ly art of self defense, by an over
whelmingly affirmative vote on the
proposition:
"Resolved, that girls should be
taught to box."
Mrs. Caherine Waugh McCulloch
woman justice of the peace, introduc
ed the resolution.
Aside from the immense advantage
accorded to wives in handling their
husbands, one member of the club
thought that such preparation would
be good training for housework. An
other suggested it would be zenefi
cial in the event of attacks by holdup
men.
One caused a murmur of dissent
by asking to amend the resolution to
read, "Taught to defend themselves
in a ladylike manner."
This was voted down.
