Illinois' gasoline tax refund bill, which cannot refund for several months because of litigation in the state and federal courts, Is nftw ready for the consideration of Governor Small. The treasure passed at the close of the sp<?ond special session has been returned to Governor Small after having been signed by Speaker Robert Scholes. The measure provides for the refund to counties of the state 16,500,000 collected by means of the Illegal gasoline tax law. Its companion bill provides for the payment of taxes paid for gasoline used for agricultural pur- | poses. The refund bill is believed to i be regular, and is expected to be approved by the governor. ! Governor Small lias signed six bills passed at the special session of the assembly and they have been filed In the office of Secretary of State Emmerson. Three of them carry a total appropriation of $126,000 for the special session, but it is said that only $30,000 will be spent Another bill, by Senator Dunlap, exempts from taxation trust funds of the University of Illinois and other educational institutions. The fifth bill appropriates $230,000 for premiums to the state and county fairs. The amount appropriated to the state fair is $150,<X*) and the remaining $80,000 Is for other fairs and expositions. Senator Edward Hughes' bill, providing that aviators In Illinois must secure a federal permit, also has been approved. All of these measures become effective July 1. It is quite possible that a third special session will be called to consider legislation to permit a reassessment of property In Cook county and the dowustate jit enough representatives and senators in favor of tlMii session can be mustered. On July 1, 1929, Chicago's metropolitan area will have a population of 4,594,000, and Chicago alone will have 3,250,000 citizens. That- predicition was made recently by the Chicago Association of Commerce after careful survey of the city and the district embracing 100 urban centers and six counties. It was estimated that the population of the metropolitan area on January 1 of this year was 4,407,000, and that of Chicago as 3,150,000, indicating that In the year and six months following the first of the year Chicago will have Increased by 100,000. The state division of highways has awarded a contract for paving section 124 of Route 130, In Richland county, to Charles W. Clark, Terre Haute, on a bid of $155,186.29. A contract for construction of a bridge on section 104B of Route 132, in Moultrie county, was awarded to L. R. Harshman, Sullivan, for a bid of $21,626.59, and H. C. Holmes, Macomb, was awarded the contract for the construction of a bridge on section 118B of Route 95, in Hancock- SlcDonough counties, for a bid of $20,979.05. For the construction of a bridge on section 105B of Route 114, la Kankakee county, the Duncan Construction company, Ottawa, won the contract. The firm bid $18,737.90 for the Job. Infantile paralysis deaths have Increased" 40 per cent, mortality returns for the first quarter cf 1928 issued recently by th« state department of public health showed. Last year the state was visited by a heavy wave of the disease, more than 500 cases, of which 102 were fataL "Infantile paralysis," the report said, "tends to run In two-year epidemic cycles that reach maximum prevalence peaks in the second of th^ two years. The higher mortality ratei for the preseason period this spring suggests that it Is running true to form this year. Prevalence ordinarily begins to increase noticeably toward the end Of June, climaxing in September." The management of the Polly Prim Pavilion had a good card last Friday night, and will continue to hold thesa cards on Friday nights so as not to conflict with dancing at the Fox on Wednesdays and also to enable cottage owners from Chicago, who are spending week-ends in McHenry, to attend. The wisdom of the change was made plain' by the good attendance of out-of-town people «t Friday night's card. First bout--Howard Kraft, the school boy from Grayslake, took on Billy Wray of Belleplain A. C.. This bout went the fourth round and the [decision was given to Wray. However, it was a very close match and Kraft is game to come back again next Friday and who knows but that he may get Wray this time. . The second bout was also a fourth bout affair between two new men at the Polly. A1 Jenson of Belleplain A. C. took on Frankie O'Dell of Wauconda. O'Dell took the decision# but apparantly several more ^roiinda should have been fought to make the decision, very decisive. The third bout was & short one, for Herb Simons of Lake Forest knocked out Fred Newell of Chicago in the first round. They were fast fighters and hard punchers and seemed very evenly matched, but Simons landed a temple blow that was too much for Newell. The fourth bout was between Bob Stone of Belleplain A. C. and Attilic Andriana of Elgin, fighting at 175 pounds. This was a fast bout and Stone landed plenty of blows but he couldn't knock out Andriana and had to be satisfied with a decision. The fifth bout was a 150-pound match between Billie Bennet of Chicago and Larry Leavett of Waukegan. Bennet is the Tribune Golden Glove holder of Chicago and New York, but Leavitt easily took the decision. The sixth bout was between Jack Stevens of Chicago and Floyd Barnwell, known as Elgin's "Knockout Artist." Barnwell was just a little outclassed and Stevens easily took the decision. fThe seventh bout, as predicted last week, was a good one, going the four round limit. Eddie Peddle of Lake Forest, who is a little older and more developed than Bille Blue, had a hard time in getting the decision. Peddle is a good little boxer and Blue, appeared to be a little slower than usual. Blue had already had a bout on Tuesday evening at Elgin. The decision next week will most likely be different, because Blue at his best can outpoint Peddle. Next Friday night's card looks like a very good one. There are three matches that were on last week and they are bound to be good. The first one will be Howard Kraft, Grayslake, and Billy Wray of Chicago at 112 pounds. Billie Bennet and Larry Levette at 150 pounds is a return match also and this promises to be good. Billie Blue and Eddie Peddle are going to mix it again and if Blue is in good shape after his bout at the Purple Grackle Tuesday evening it would seem that he will take the decision. Then Frankie O'Dell from Wauconda will mix with Paddy Moran from Cicero. Joe Adams will take on Harry Dufield and A1 Summers will box Charles Keller. For a windup bout Jack Stevens will take on R. Haines. With the exceptions of the Blue and Kraft matches the rest of the boxers weigh 140 to 170 pounds, so this card will show you some real slugging. Don't forget the hour, 8:45 Standard time, Friday, June 22, at the Polly Prim Pavilion. PUFIL8 or „ Of KBOTAL ntlDAY EVE The pupils who have been taking piano lessons of Mirs. C. W.
