MANDELL 1S FAVORITE IN ~ MLARNIN 60 NEW YORK, May 17. — The fight tonight between Sammy Mandell and Jimmy McLarnin was postponed late this after- ncon by Tex Rickard because of threatening weather. Mandell is a 2 to 1 favorite in the fight to regain the light- weight championship. McLarnin has a recent knockout to his credit when he put Sid Terris down for the count. Fans, how- ever, feel Mandell will hold his own and evade McLarnin's pow- erful right. The bout is a sched- uled 15 round affair. RUTH AND GEHRIG MOBBED BY BOYS NEW HAVEN, Conn., May 17— An exhibition ball game between the New York Yankees and New Haven broke up in a riot at the end of the eighth inning yester- day afternoon when thousands of boys rushed the police and mobbed Babe Ruth and Lou Geh- rig in excitement to get close to the two baseball heroes. New Haven won the game 6 to 5. FRANKIE FLEMING BACK, RING GAME CHICAGO, May 17—The lure of the ring is a hard thing for the old timers to shake off. Frankie Fleming, the Montreal fegther- weight who achieved fame by knocking out Benny Leonard back in 1913, before Leonard be- came lightweight champion, is ‘back in the glove sport, this time 10 who recently graduated from the amatenr ranks.

Many Loopholes But there are many who see large loopholes in this argument, and among them are not a few of Prime Minister Baldwin’s follow- ers who are really conservative in fact as well as in party name, It is well known that the cabinet was divided on the advisability of introducing and pressing this measure through before the gen- eral election. Some, Winston Churchill among them, wera quite outspoken about it, and in a pub- lic speech even affer the decision to go ahead with thé flapper en- enfranchisement had been reach. ed“the chancellor of the exchequer expressed his open doubts as o its present wisdom, while natural ly voicing his adhesion to the de- cision of his colleagues.

Coughlin of Chicago has nominated five colts to carry his colors in the Kentucky Derby and probably (the most widely known of these is Wacker Drive. A son of Bunting and Bonnie Carrie, the chestnut colt has been accorded a good play in wint book betting and has been watch- ed closely by turf fans through- out the spring training season As a two-year-old, Wacker Drive was entered in eleven stake races and won three. He finished second once and was third in an other event, accounting for $21, 340 as his season’s earnings His most spectacular victory was in the Breeders’ Futurity and his second in the Homewood Stakes also was noteworthy. o34} N satisfaction. The emancipated youngsters of the new generation are nothing if not liberal, say the liberals; are nothing if not ultra. democratic, say the laborites. Both expect to profit hugely by the accession of the newly-made maiden and matron voters. How Will They Jump? But obviously no one really knows in what direction the flap- pers are going to jump; whether their frolicsomeness will lead them in numbers to help the so- cialistic elements in Britain’. political life get into a position to put their theories into prac- tice; whether their support of liberal but less radical candidates will tend to give the liberal party a new hope of coming back in force if not to power; or whother, as Mr. Joynson-Hicks indicated his belief in explaining the bill to the house during the first de- bate on fit, their votes will be so apportioned as to maintain the status quo—that is, in the hope of the conservatives, keep their par- ty in power. The home secretary ‘pointed out on that occasion that the comser- | l MORNIN', SIR! | | { | | | | | | conse vative party had not suffered by putting 12,000,000 women on the voting r s in 1918, The wo- men had not g'ven the conserva- tives reasoh’ to régret their en-! franchisement, and would not do so, he predicted. giste Agree on Justice | There has been practically no argument, over the justice of en-| franchising the 1,800,000 women over the age of 30 who for va rious reasons of a qualifyng na- ture in the franchise act of 1918 were debarred from voting under that act. The justice of making the privilege of the franchise an! equal thing for men and women has been almost universally recognized except by the “die- hards” who are still opposed to women voting at all, The quite prevalent conserva tive apathy toward the “flapper” features of the new measure, how- ever, could be easily divined by the fact, which even conservative organs commented upon at the time, that practically half” the conservative members of the House of Commons did not vote at -all on the second reading of the bill. It only had ten votes against it on that occasion—all die’hards—but the great majority of 377 it received was made pos- sible by the virtually unanimous support of the liberal and labor directfromthe manufactur er YOU’LL HAVE TO ADMIT THAT THIRTY- TWO YEARS IS A LONG TIME Yet thirty-two years ago—away back in 1896, a year before the Klondike rush and two years before the Spanish-American War, this agency wrote its first policy.
