ENROLL STUDENTS LOTS OF ACTION IN BOXINO BOUTS 100 Legionnaires and Their Friends Thrilled by Amateur Performers. Friday night, December 31, the local Voiture of the "Forty and Eight" entertained about 100 of their friends by staging five fast and interesting amateur boxing bouts of local talent. Albert Guyer and Ralph Miller opened the exhibition with a four round bout. Guyer had a slight advantage over Miller in height, weight and reach, but this was offset by Miller's speed and experience. Guyer showed up best in the first two rounds deliveiing some good body blows with a right cross to the jaw, but in the last two rounds Miller speeded up, counting with numerous left jabs to the face and stiff rights to the body, and in the opinion of the judges more than, evened up the slight advantage gained by Guyer in the first two rounds, thereby awarding the bout to Miller on points.

The second bout was a four round session between John Sease and Peter Lempesis. The first round was rather slow, the boxers feeling each other out, but from the second round on, this bout was full of action. Lampesis With experience gained in Y. M. C.

The suspect has brown eyes and heavy black hair and is said to bear resemblance to photographs of the missing Olsen. GUIDES DISCUSS (Continued from First Page) order to secure the increased pay which comes with longer trips on the field. Those in favor of the revisions say the guides no longer can make short trips, skipping important points and sections of the field, and must abide by the wishes of the tourists.

Means Less Money On the other hand, there arc those, taking up the cudgel with the guides who say that the new rules will mean less money for the guides and consequently less to be placed in circulation through the channels of business here. It is estimated by some persons that the new rules will mean from $25,000 to $30,000 less purchasing power for the guides each year. The guides themselves are not in sympathy with the four trips allowed each day under the new regulations, since there are few days in the year when a guide can secure that number of tour'sts, except probably in August. BASKET LEAGUE (Continued from First Page) league at $1.00 a strip, for any one g-nme or different games. General admission will be 15 cents each night.

The actual expenses the league for, the season will be met by assessment of the participating teams before the opening of the league. Any surplus at the end of the season will be divided equally among the teams. Rules Adopted Rules and regulations presented by Miller, chairman of the rules and finance committee, were read and r.dopted after some revision. They set forth that the general purpose of tho league is "to provide wholesome rivalry among local groups; to furnish menus of recreation for the players in the Icgaue; to band local groups closer through interest in their teams and the spirit of conquest and to promote interest in general in basketball." Each team is required to pay an en- Iranco fee of $lr and to post a forfeit of "good of $10, to be returned at tho c'ose of the season. No one unless cn-ncctcd with the organization or represented in the league will oliftible to play unless duly enroll 1 before January 3.

Each team will 'ay each other team throe jiames di the season. Tho referee's jui'gmont daro not be disputed, unless .1 protest is based on misinterpretation Any crame. of tho rules of tho such protests will be decided by an advisory board comprising the conches of high school, and academy.

Lenta (Post of the American Legion will go into action with the strong team representing the Hanover Young Men's Christian Association Wednes- on the floor at the Hotel Gettysburg annex.

The game is called for 8 o'clock. The Legion team suffered a defeat at the hands of the strong high school team several weeks ago and the Hanover game is being looked upon however as a test for the local aggregation. The York countians have been playing good ball during the present season and have a'string of veterans who have given a good account of themselves in every one of their games. The lineup for the Legion will be different from the one which was sent against the high, Those who will probably see action during the contest will be, forwards, Bream, Stover, Pfeffer, and Oyler; center, Buehler and Tennant; guards, Haehnlen, Sheads, Wickerham, Alderson and Weaver. A game with the Keystone Five, of Fayetteville, has been scheduled for Wednesday evening, January 12, on the same floor.

(Political Advcrtisins) ionater Announces His Candi- dacy for the Republican Nomination for Treasurer I Fall Primary, 1927 I AMUSEMENTS "THE BIG -PARADE" "Youth, love and laughter" might well be a sub-title for "The Big Parade," which Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer will send to the Majestic Theatre for one day, matinee and night, Thursday, January 6.

For despite that the three young American musketeer doughboys are bound on grim business, it is JOHN GILBERT after all the high adventure of youth which calls to them, and that it is which leads' them out to battle and tho adventure which makes "The Big Pai-ade" so truly and thoroughly human, So, in "The Big Parade," -King Vidor, by his direction, has empha- sized the love element of the adventvu-e which. many American youths took overseas. To see "The Big Parade" is to see American manhood at its best --for it breaks down all the barriers between the men once they are in the army, and the men accept the break as a matter of course and go ahead with their job, whether it be manicuring a- French dooryard or entering a creeping barrage under deadly fire.
