ter," and f George, forward,' are
back on the squad after being out

CHICAGO, Feb. 15. Boxing,
which for the . last six months,

an extent that ordinary matches
drew from $8,000 to $10,000
without newspaper publicity and

Police Fitzmorris tonight. ,
The action is the result of . a
campaign waged by the Chicago
Law and Order league which had
its investigators play hide and
seek with the boxing fans to ob

mayor directed Chief Fitzmorris
to issue orders to all command

futurematches.
The contests, prohibited in the
state by law, have' been staged
in remote sections of the cityJ
almost every night with capacity

Hopes that motorists rally have
had for a reduction in automo

were dashed yesterday when the
house killed a substute bill
introduced by the hous9 commit
tee on roads and highways, pro
viding for a reduction on cars
that bare paid license fees for
four years, to a flat rate of $15.
Efforts to rush a revised com

house fish committee, were
blocked by Representative Mott,
who. when the bill came up for!
third reading, carried a motion
to have the bill . regularly referred:

CAPTAIN ELECTED

Stanley Bray of Bellingham "was'
elected captain of the 1923 base-1
ball team of Washington State

Bon's -letter men here today.
Bray is a junior In the depart
ment of economics. The coming
season will be his third year on
the varsity team. He is a catcher.
to go into night session for the
first time since the legislature
convened in January. A long
wrangle resulted in House Bill
126,- which would permit cities to
sell electrical energy outside their
limits, but would levy a five per
cent gross earnings tax on muni
cipal plants, being 'sent to final
reading while two power meas
ures introduced before it were in
definitely postponed.
Proponents of one of these two
hills, of which Representative
Homer T. Bone of Tacoma was
author, to permit outside sales
withoutany tax fought hard to
save the measure, but it was
killed by vote or 57 to 39. Mr.
Bone contended that private power
companies are paying into the
state treasury only 1.9 per cent of
their earnings and a tax of five
per cent would be unfair. The
surviving bill comes up on the cal
endar probably tomorrow foe final
passage and the large majorities
today against any amendments to
the bill indicates that it will pass.
