Criticism of tho council was not directed at tho members of the com mission, tho match-makers or prin cipals In tho contests. All agreed that tho sport Itself had been clean and srpiaro. It wns alleged, however, that the growth of boxing was draw Ing many undesirables characters to tho city, and that the ''roars" made by disgruntled gnmblers after each, contest wero becoming a nuisance. "It's llko a circus," explained Col vln in making his motion. "It's not tho show- Itself but tho followers that mnko it a bad thing for tho com munity. I'vo seen somo of tho fights nt the opera house and enjoyed them, too. nut we had an exhibition of somo of its ovlls the other night (roforring to tho alleged assault up on Flro Chief Ambroso by several men ho sought to arest for disorderly conduct) and it is tlmo to call a halt." Tho boxing commission was ap pointed last December on petition of tho rcqulrod 100, or more, citizens nnd bus proved faithful and very successful In performing a difficult tusk.

At a noon meeting of tho Com munity notterment Committee yes terday nt tho Hex enfo, tho pirticu Iar phases of community life to be Investigated wore decided upon. Tlioso arc health and sanitation, rec reation, jttvonllo delinquency, de pendency, housing, city organization mul activities, and Industrial condi tions. Spoclnl committees to take cltnrgo of each aspect of the work will bo announced tomorrow. It was doclded that an active ad- vottlslng campaign will bo con ; ducted prior to and during the stir voy in order to socure tho coopera tion of ovory person in Klamath Falls. It is the Intention of tho general eommitteo to acquaint ev oryeno in the city with the purpose nnd benefits to be secured from such a community study and a call for hundreds of volunteer workers will bo made. In fact It Is expected thnt ovoryono In tho city will take n part In the survey. 'We're from Missouri," declared tho city council with united vole last night, after hearing a communi cation from O corgo J. Walton, presi dent of the California-Oregon Power company, to the effect that the com plaint of tho city fire chief that the nuts on various fire hydrants were not uniform and firemen had to car ry an assortment of wrenches to turn them. The hydrant nuts aro stand ard said tho power superintendent's letter, and he believed any good standard wrench would turn them. "Mr. Walton has a car," said one of the council. "I propose wo Invite him to take the chief some day and make an investigation of all the hydrants. Let's Instruct the clerk to so write him." And It was so ordered. Committees Report The light and water committee re ported favorably on the installation of a fire hydrant on Main street east. near Dr. A. A. Soule's residence. The street commltteo reported a visit to Michigan avenue, where res idents petitioned for temporary side walks last week. They found exist ing sidewalks narrow and Inadequate and recommended wider walks, of temporary wooden construction, be placed on both sides of the street.. Right of Way Deed A deed was presented to the city by Durge W. Mason and M. S. West 4 Of right ot way for sewer, drain or water pipe, across the lake front property of Messrs. Mason and West. . This is the property on which certain portions ot streets were vacated by' the city, ln consideration of assur- ance that It is to be used for a manu-1 facturlng site. ' The ordinance vacating tho streets came up ror final passage last night and was adopted. Paving Discussion There was considerable discus- sion of paving the alley between Main street and Klamath avtsnue. from Fourth street to Seventh street. It was the unanimous sentiment that '. the alley needed paving but no ac tion was taken. Tho installation of a sidewalk on ' Main street from the Baldwin hotel . to Center street, came up again. Councilman Brandenburg said that ! in view of traffic conditions, an ac cident was likely to occur there at f any time and a pedestrian injured. & As the foot traffic is forced Into the street by lack of sidewalks, he fear- f ed that the city would be liable In a damage action and might be forced i to pay moro than It would for side walk, providing the owners of prop- erty refused to build tho sidewalk. Because of lack of funds the council v hesitates about tackling the Job, ,. which requires considerable rock ex cavation, and no definite action was f taken. Permits Issued!
