Warn times have changed! The
clamor 'i over the Louis-Conn
prizefight comes not from the
moralists but from the public
which feels cheated the bout was
ot more sanguinary.
Just few years ago prize
fighting was a crime. It may still
- be in some states. It was so gen
erally banned at one time that
fighting had to be done furtively
or outside of cities in the days
f barehand fighting, and long
after.
Wot very many years ago there
was a federal law against ship
ping films of prizefights acros
state lines, and there were prose-
cutiona for violations.
Tha Louis-Conn fight drew
3.000 persona to Yankee stadium
Wednesday night, and the round -by-round
broadcast had millions
cf ran glued to radio receiving
seta. Moving pictures will be on
Che screen in a matter of hours.
The president didn't attend but
Governor Dewey was announced
aa present along with other
notables. '
Why the change in public sen
timent? righting is still a tough,
rough, and soma say brutal pas
time. But somehow it has a great
puUie following. Even the pious
who would score a free ticket
to a fight show a keen interest
in the "winnah."
I would' cite as on reason for
the change -Gene Tunney. Here
was a real champion who ww
also a gentleman. After winning

engaged in business and other
activities, took an interest in poll

'Annexation
Larger City,
By Robert E. Gangware
AsUtant City Editor. The Statesman
Expansion of the city of Sa
lem by as much as one-third In
area and one-fifth in population
will be at stake in annexation
elections here next month.
Property, owners in nine areas
adjacent to the city have peti
tioned for annexation. The areas
range in size from 40 to nearly
300 acres and total approximately
1,170 acres as compared with Sa
lem's present city acreage of
3,381,
Population of the nine districts
combined is estimated variously
by city and county officials st
from 4,000 to 10,000. Most areas
are residential in character, but
many Include large industrial
and business properties. In any
event, approval of the proposed

opening the way toward a quick
extension of selective service for
nine months after July 1.
The conferees also approved
separate legislation raising the
pay In the armed services. It starts
with a 50 per cent increase for
buck privates and apprentice sea
men, raising them from $50 to
$75 a month and following through
with corresponding Increases for
other enlisted grades.
In general, the pay raise measure
followed the ideas of the house.
It gives army lieutenants and the
lowest three grades of warrant of
ficers boosts of 20 per cent.
A conference change from the
house plan makes the raise for
army captains and their navy
counterparts 15 per cent instead
of 10. Higher ranking commission
ed officers, and the two top grades
of warrant officers, get 10 per
cent.
Their agreement has still to be
ratified by senate and house be
fore it goes to the president.
