For several minutes Referee Jim Crowley could not make a decision. The ring was quickly filled with seconds.

BROKER SCHOOL SYSTEM SPREADS ALL OVER U. S. NEW YORK,sJune 13.—The day when technical training will be within the reach of all embryonic brokers is envisaged by Dr. Birl E! Shultz, director of the Educational Institute of the New York Stock Exchange. A start towards the achievement of that goal has been made during the past few years with the crea- tion of institutes by the stock ex- changes of San Francisco, Los An- geles, Seattle and Chicago pattern- - ed after the New York institute. Growing interest in the institutes has been manifested by Cleveland, Boston and other cities; Dr. Shultz said. Dr. Shultz looks: forward to the day when there are institutes in all the principal stock exchange cities throughout the United States, with courses open to .employees of all brokerage houses, Institutes in all cities except New York now operating are open to employees of both the exchange and brokerage houses. College courses provide only a smattering of learning to equip the young man bent on a career in the financial world. “And T am not sure that it should be otherwise,” said Dr. Shultz. “Much of what we teach here is of interest only to those who are employed in the stock exchange. “Certain training always will be provided by specific organizations.” Dr. Shultz said he would like to see the stock exchange institutes exert an influence in the broker- age business comparable with the American Institute of Banking in the banking world. “Institute training may never be made a prerequisite for employ- ment in the brokerage business, but it may come to merit such recogni- tion as will give employees with such training preference in promo- tion.” “Alaska Club women asked assist- ance General Federation President towards securing detention house located in Alaska for delinquent women and girls to stop practice of transporting them to institutions in western States. Many problems involved, such as desirable location, type and size of institution.

Gen- eral Federation hopes your organi- zation will co-operate with Alaska club women in securing commis- sion and working with it to secure best possible institution for Alaska. Will write fully from New York next week.” The feasibility of establishing such a home in Alaska has been discussed for several years. Last year a tentative proposition was ad- vanced in the Alaska Legislature which decided, after considerable investigation, to take no immediate action. This decision, it was said at the time by legislative leaders, was largely determined by the eco- nomics of the situation. It was |felt that the Tertitory was not fi- nancially able to erect an institute | adequately equipped and of the iproper kind to cope with the prob- lems; and that the best interests of the public and the delinquents themselves would be served by com- mitting them to reputable institu- tions in the States.
