The International Labor Organiza-

William Schell, who told of its purpose
and composition,and Mrs. W. J. Ro-
berts who explained the wofk.xaf the
organization.
The Club elected Mrs. A. E. Becker
and Mrs. H.W .^Hughes as delegates

Red Rose fought through the state

amateurs in his weight. He engaged
in seventeen fights winning seven
knockouts, gaining four decisions,
three draws and losing three matches
neither of-them a Knockout. The fans
will have a real treat in seeing these
two young leather pushers go through
five rounds of fighting. -
The promoters want to take this op-
