There were a number of lively mlxups but no knockouts or falls. A large crowd at tended and expressed approval of each bout with prolonged applause. The order was good, and the score of reserve patrolmen had nothing to do outside of watching the performance. , The windup contest between Jack Reck of Philadelphia and Jackie Clarke of Kail River. Mass.. was the ; best match of the evening. .Both men showed science and had weight in their blows. Clarke was master throughout the six rounds. The match in the semi-final windup was a poor one, as the fighters were not fast, and clinching marred the ex hlbition. The preliminaries showed a number of younsters well versed in the fighting game. Kid Texas of New Orleans and Jimmie McCabe of Phila delphia fought to a draw. Willie Franklin of Lancaster ' and Willie Rankert of Philadelphia went six lively rounds with no decision. The work of Lou Grltnson, referee, was highly satisfactory.

Jeffery Predicts Prices Will Not Be Slashed In an interview to-day on the fu-1 ture of the automobile business. | Charles T. Jeffery, president of the: Thomas T. Jeffery. Company of Ken osha, Wis., stated his belief that the era of price slashing through which j the industry has been passing is at an ; end. "We have always believed," said j Mr. Jeffery, "shat the demand of the! the American public was for a high- ] grade quality automobile at a moder- 1 ate price. The American man wants j an automobile that run, day in j and day out for a long time, practi- i cally without attention. He wants a 1 car which will be economical in its I consumption of gasoline and oil and j easy on tires. At'the same time he! does not want to be skimped on size; \ he wants a roomy car in which his; whole family can ride comfortably. J "Sales arguments as to the number ■ of cylinders in the motor, or the! particular kind of rear axle or fender which a car should have, do not ap- 1 peal to him nearly so much as the j assurance of dependable service. "This means quality, and we be-1 lieve that the manufacturer who skimps quality in ordrt - to offer the public a sensational price is making a i serious mistake. The trend of the! motor car business to-day In Am- j erica, is against low prices without! quality. "Competition is compelling every' manufacturer to produce the most car j possible for the least money. The ! public will not pay an excessive price but the public does demand quality, and the fact that an increasing num ber of motor car manufacturers are talking quality is evidence of the very healthy condition of the in dustry."

Studebaker Company to Built 10,000 Motor Trucks Announcement made of the new j one-ton and half-ton Studebaker com j mercial cars is acompanled by the | information that the Studebaker Cor poration will produce 10,000 of these' vehicles during 1916, thus taking aj place among the largest builders in j the industry of trucks of like capa-I i cities. Three models of the half-ton car- ! rying capacity are announced, and' j the same number of the one-ton | capacity. The half-ton models in-! elude the panel delivery car, $875; j open express car, $850; station and ! baggage wagon, $875. One-ton trucks .include the open express type, $1200; | stake body type, $1250; 16-passenger bus type, SI4OO. Quantity production is the rule at the factory because of the big de mand for the new trucks that is re ported by dealers everywhere. The new Studebaker models are featured by the fact that they are de signed and built primarily for com mercial work. ' They are not adapta tions of pleasure car features, but are the result of long tests in actual com mercial service preparatory to being 1 placed on the market. Although the Studebaker Corpora j tion has been building commercial i cars of half-ton capacity for several years, it has never attempted produc tion on as large a scale as is planned for 1916. One of the features of the new models is that they are equipped with electric starter, electric lights, speed ometer and other high-class features. In addition to their power, these cars | are notable also for their attractive i lines and high quality body finish. ; Considerable attention has been paid to the comfort, and convenience lof drivers. Everything necessary for the operation of the trucks is within i easy reach of the operator and at - , j ranged in simple fashion. | ——————i EDUCATION Al» School of Commerce Troup Building 15 So.

The action of the department was 1 generally regarded as a compromise. It : was said that although there were many ■ j advocates of a strong national system : of preparedness, as well as many op i ponents of such an organization, the . j most generally accepted view was to r keep militarism out. of the grade and ' high schools. Most of the dele gates, it was said, favored the special ' military school plan. OpiioxeH Military Training; I A resolution opposing scholastic mili tary training which was adopted carried [ a clause which recommended that the president of the department of superin . ] tendence —John D. Shoop, of Chicago— | appoint a committee of nine "to study 1 and report on the proper place for ac ■ [ ceptance of military education of . i "American youth." The department i I agreed to finance "the necessary ex i! penses of the committee."
