C, July 14. Prohibition forces took full control In tho house today, refused to permit , n vote on a stralghtout motion to re peal tho wartime act defeated over whelmingly an amendment providing foi tho salo of 2 3-4 per cent beer and stood solidly against all attacks on tho gonoinl enforcement measure lust as fast ns one "Hbeial" am endment was ottered by opponents of prohibition, It was voted down with out ceremony, always by a triple voto I for the minority, fighting every Inch of ground, demanded a division after ayw and nays were cnlled and then nuked for tollorg. Before tho IIouso got through with the first section of tho first part of the three part bill there was more dlsordor on tho floor ' Jhan at any time this session. f The disturbance arose first during an attempt by Representative Blan ton, Democrat, Texas, to speak a sec ond time against an amendment which would have given a Jury tho light to define Intoxicants, and was increased during an nddress by Rp rventatlve Galllvan, Democrat, Mas cashusetts who declared members voting dry should print in tho Con Kresslonal Record exactly how much liquor they had stored in their homes and offices. . REAL BATTLE BEGINS; ITCEIilNG GROWS HITTER The real battle .of. the day, howe er, was over the amendment to dr fine a nonintoxlcant as a bercfgo containing 2 3-4 pefcent'alcohol; in stead or one-half of one per cent, a written in the bill. Representative Dyer, republican, Missouri, authoi of the amendment, did not ask for this definition in the constitutional prohibition amendment, but simply In the war time law. In pleading for Its adoption Mr. Dyer declared it waa what President Wilson had recom mended to congress and 'would per mit, during tho remaining period or wartime prohibition, the sale of light wines and beer, and might delay i- Nuance of a proclamation by the prts lent which would restore tho sale : "hard" liquors. There wns a round of speech turn ing on this motion, an hour of , with tho "dries" assailing it aa an enteiing wedge and the "wets" as serting that it merely would permit the very thing thop resident as commander-in-chief of tho army had ( aid was best for tho countiy for the , next six months. JLX OPPOSITION TO LAW i easily howled ovkk After 2 3-4 per cont beer had been bowled over by a record vote of 151 to 90 and this was about relative division on all amendments, tho pro hibitionists went after another am endment by Representative Igoe, Democrat, of Missouri, which had utrlcken out aU definition of Intoxi cants, killing tho proposal 128 to 83. There was tho utmost confusion at tlmos, desplto whacks with tho gavel aijd some of the prohibition loadeis Hpplauded ovory move in their favor, ho galleries, filled largely with wo en and olllcers of antillquor organ latlons, broke Into applauso when th0 house roared Ita disapproval of 2 3-4 per cent beer. f Thero weio many references to President Wilson during the debate, nnd several speakers read that sec tion of iila messago lecommendlng (repeal of tho wartime law so far as It rolated to the manufatcure and rale of light wines and beer. fe 'In lirtlngihiV voice for 2 3-1 per tuv v.

JOHNSON WINS THE TENNIS CHAMPIONSHIP Professor C. R. Johnson won the final match with Percy Smith for the championship of Logan City men's singles tennis tournament. Profes sor Johnson won In a gruelling' four set match which lasted until almost dark Tuesday night. The score was 6-2, 6-3, 5-7,-8-8. .Professor 'Johnson Started out brilliantly, playing some at the most consistent and sparkling tennis that a ( t has ever been seen on local courts. Smith, on the other hand, was clearly rattled the first and second sets and his game suffered on that account. In the first set Johnson brought the specators out of a warni dream with thieo phenomenal returns of Smith's wicked drive which barely skimmed the back line of the court. From then on through the remainder of that set and, the next one Johnhon clearly had the better of the fray. Smith came back strong in the third set and Johnson weakened some what. Smith won tho set by playing a consistent and heady game with out risking much on chance shots or risky drives. Ho won the set, after it had run to douce, by a scoro of 7-5. Tho fourth set proved to be tho deciding one. Uoth men played for their lives nnd It was only after the set ran to douco twice that Johnson finally won 8-6. The whole match proved to the world that tho Logan club has on its roster tennis players who can fight It out with any men in tho state and lntormountain country with a good chanco of winning. Such men as Johnson, P. Smith, Bert Smith, Hammond, Nelson nnd pos sibly others play a brand of tennis thnt la hard to surpass. They will have a splendid chanco of winning If thoy enter other tourneys. Mr. and Mrs. Alma Caisons of Richmond were in Logan yesterday on business. Illinois, Democrat, declared those cont beer, Rcpiesontntlvo Rnlney of wore uncertain times; that tho peo ple weie In a peculiar frame of mind and that prosperity was causing more misery than alcohol. Ho brought a volley of applauso from the "wets" when he expressed Lho hope that the president would ve toythe enforcement bill because of Its drastlftprovlstons, ,, 4i" ' TENNIS tPLAYERS ARE OUT FOR HONORS The results of games played in the Logan Cl(y tennis tournament since last Saturday leave but thrco contestants for the supremo honors. Percy Smith played true to "dope" and' beat' Nelson In 'two seta 6-0.' G-4 President Peterson won from Mtii quist by default; and C. R. .Johnson defeated Bill Merrill In three tight goes 6-4, 1-6, 6-3.
