Brennan ] O’Neill, Nebraska | SHERIDAN PUTS BURNS AWAY IN FIRST ROUND One of the largest audiences of box ing fans that has ever gazed across the ropes in this county at an indoor bout greeted the middle weight wonder of Sioux City, Homer Sheridan and Joe Burns, of Minneapolis, as they entered the ring last Thursday night in the K. C. theatre in this city. The bout was staged under the auspices of the K. C. Athletic Club. During the first round Sheridan tap ped Burns in the pit of the stomach considerably above the belt and Burns proceeded to lay down and take the count. Montana Jack Sullivan, man ager of Homer Sheridan, asked that Burns be groomed up a bit and after a ten minute recess, be placed in the ring and finish the engagement. Burns came back strong and made a good showing for four rounds until he ran into one of Homer’s jabs to the jaw and Referee Ryan gave Sheridan the second decision. The preliminaries were good. Ernest Smith, of Walnut, defeated Ralph Stanage, of Colome, South Dakota, in the second round of what was to have been a five round go. The exhibition was fast from start to finish. Sheridan was to have met Chuck Lambert in Omaha tonight be fore the American Legion boxing show. Lambert, we understand, has developed pneumonia and Johnny Strike has been substituted, with whom Sheridan fought a draw in Sioux City some time ago.

GALLAGHER’S MINIMUM WAGE BILL SUFFERED DEFEAT One of the hotly contested issues of last week in the House of Representa tives at Lincoln, was the minimum wage bill for women which place the minimum wage for women in industry at $12 per week. It bore the house number 95 and was introduced by Donald Gallagher of this city. A number of hearings were given in the past two weeks at which many inter ested citizens on both sides of the question appeared and discussed the bill. The opposition generally claim ed that the law, if enacted, would de prive many women of opportunity to obtain work a part of the time, and would in practical life be detrimental to the very class it was designed to help. This view must have prevailed as on final vote near the close of the week the bill received only 39 votes to 44 against. Seventeen members were sick and consequently absent. This issue has appeared frequently in the the sessions of recent years and also in the constitutional convention of 1920. It therefore has a familiar face but has never been able to muster enough support against the big interests tQ gain approval although Donald made valiant effort to put it across.
