.HE WRITER regretted very
 l much to hear that the hardest

THE WRITER regretted very u much to hear that the hardes; hit of those financially interested in the Casino show Monday was Terry Lee. Here is one of the finest fel- lows personally and one of the most competent referees in the state. Terry lost time in addition to a' hun dred or more through the show. And yet he made no complaint. His only comment was that it did not go as he had expected
 There is not a more considerate person affiliated with the boxing game I-in Bridgeport than good old Terry The writer can recall several in- stances, in which shows have been financial failures. when Lee, after a hard nights work as referee. has re- fused to accept payment for his services.
 The trouble with Terry Is that he is too generous, too easy going and considerate to make good as pro moter.

IT l V TT E~'' l't-NNT as bONllE IIOlIpltI0 0 J accommodate the pesterous dead head. just so long will the sport be a financial failure. No better example of how hard and great these free ducket hounds can cut in on ntghts s receipts was cviucud at the Casino show of the other night. The at tendance was a seemingly very large ,one and there were not uin8 fans in every ten who believed, if they were told so then. that financially the bouts were losers.
 Yet that Is fact. The Pembroke A. C. show was financial favor Pugilistically I was told, for l hap pened 10 be out of town, the enter tainment was a complete success. The crowd. however, ! will repeat, was large-almost as large in number as that which was recorded at the Akron bouts.
 But upon investigat ton and inquiry Hast night l learned that there were in the neighborhood of 300 dead heads" in the club. This means q loss of $500 to the management. for these "comp" fans usually grab the choice seats.
 ! Perhaps some day the promoter will wake up but not until he does can he expect boxing here to be placed on a paying basis The pro bTnoter here doesn't get q square deal JIe Is obliged to hand out too much ! money to too many uudescryinE sources There are altogether too many persons whom the police com rnissioners instruct the promoters to permit to pass through the gate | gratis.
 One can not conduct a show for the benefit of "deadheads' and that is about all that a promoter can do here. There is really comp hound for every three tickets sold in this city.
 Teach the "chinaman" to hold his place; it will better for boxing and the game in general.

The big reason why Terry Lees show on Monday night was a finan- cial failure was found in the fact that he and those who worked at the door were so liberal in passing in dead heads" Nothing is so harm full to boxing as ''dead heads and Bridgeport, the writer is sorry to say, has more than it's share of them.

Doubt exists as to whether Sam Driver will make use of the first June permit to stage a. boxing show. Sam said today that it is too hot to stage an indoor show. If the police com mission will grant him permission to hold a show outdoors. he will use his permit. Otherwise the permit will go to waste. As the commission is practically decided in not allowing outdoor boxing shows it is almost certain that there will be no show conducted by Driver next month.

NICHOLAS NUSSBAUMER
 RETURNS FROM OVERSEAS

The arrival of the Admiral Ev- ans Tuesday morning was an oc- casion for much rejoicing in Wrangell. Nicholas NuSsbaumer was aboard, returning from over seas where he has been in the service of his country for the past IS months.
 When MT. Nussbaumer left Wrangell in October, 1917, almost everyone in town was at the boat to say goodbye, although the hour was midnight. When he returned those same friends were standing on the dock eager to greet him as he came down the gang plank.
 Mir. Nussbaumer has returned to us looking as well as when he took his leave, but everything has not been well with him at all times since his departure. He has gone through many hard ships. He has been wounded and has been in the hospital several times from sickness. But he never gave up, and now that the war is over he returns to private life with a record of having made good in the service of his country.
 MT. Nussbaumer says that while he saw many things over seas that were of such a nature as to stir one's feelings, that he had no single experience that got closer to him than meeting his brother and father in Switzerland whom he had not seen in IS years. Mir. Nussbaumer's brother is captain in the Swiss army.
 MT. Nussbaumer was resident of Wrangell for eight years prior to his enlistment, and no man in Wrangell had more friends than he.
 A composite of all the nice things that have been said to him since his return would probably read something like this: Most joyfully do we welcome you back. 1 May the days as we'll as the years ahead of you ever keep fresh in your memory the appreciation and pride which mere words alone cannot express.

 JAIL FOR WRANGELL
fJuneau Dispatch)

Friday the thirteenth. was a lucky day for the town of Wran- gell. Donald Sinclair, a promi- nent Wrangell merchant, was ad- vised Friday by Judge Jennings that the department had allowed Wrangell a new S6,000 jail and court house.

The present building in use at Wrangell is an old Jog affair which was originally used as an old trading post by the Hudson Bay company.
