ne Amer1can LeglOnS posts throughout the country are against Jack Dempsey at every turn. They are trying to block any fight in which he participates
 The rest of the boxing fans of America appear we1 riled up over the exorbitant demands and chesty atti- tude of the champion to such an ex- tent that they would as soon as see someone else fighting.
 And 1t begins to look as if Jack Dempsey will be glad to accept an of fer from London or Paris promoters If he wants to meet Georges Car pentier-
 Dempsey sowed the seeds of folly when he failed to get into his coun- tcy's service during the war Now he is reaping that which he might have anticipated.
 He is another unpopular champion ana It might have been different. for personally Jack is likeable and there IS no doubt but that he is a wonderful fighter. He is a victim of his asso- ciations, perhaps. for had he followed ms own choosing he probably would have gone into service and thus saved himsel fthe present embarrassment.
 But the war is over, and it is now too late to rectify the mistakes he made then.
 At best the path of the champion IS a hard one The public expects much of him and he generally fails to

CHICAGO, Feb. F. Prospects of drawing up Q new working agreement between the major and the minor leagues. who have been at outs for a year, frightened today following a double sessicn between a committee fro mthe minors and one from the National league. The American league was represented at the meeting but did not have official committee present, because most Of the magnates had left the city.
 No definite action was taken dur ing the day, but it was announced that the meeting between the National league and the minor league commit tee was progressing satisfactorily.
 The American league will not enter into any written agreement until after the disposal of the Baltimore Federal league suit, it was said at the fore noon session by Connie Mack. presi- dent of the Philadelphia club
 The sense of opinion at the after noon gathering was that the draft should be restored Several of the members Of the minor league commit tee declared. however. that there must be certain reservations made. The minor ieaguers also declared for ap- pointment of an arbitration board con- sisting ot two members from the majors and minors In case this board could not agree na point under dis cussion. it was declared that a third party outside of baseball should be named to decide
 The optional agreement also was dis cussed but everything was put over until tomorrow

deliver that which is expected.
 But in Dempseys case the fans might have dulled their memory Buf- flc1ently to permit of the champion going ahead with his profession. But his manager. Jack kearns, has tried the profiteering game to his own dis aster. The demansd made for impos sible purses has aroused the disgust of the sporting public. There is no fight worth half million dollar purse and neither is Dempsey worth three or four times as much as Car pentier.
 All of these conditions-the opposi- ton of the American Legion the dis gust of the fans, the attitude of the champion and his manager-have just about killed any chance Dempsey Ina d to meet Carpenter in this country soon.
 The governor of California has come out flat-footed in opposition to a match across the Mexican border The governor of New Jersey says Dempsey isn't good enough to box in that state.
 Dempsey may go to England or France, but if he does there will be few fans trailing along. On the other hand there will be lot of them pull ing for the war hero, Carpenter. to win

Miss Elizabeth Peet. the newly
elected president of that unique or

well known for her connection with
another unique institution, Gallaudet
college. the only college for the deaf
in the world, where she was the first
an ana nc ,or al a long time the only woman
professor of Latin.
Gallaudet College is one of the most
interesting places in Washington. Its

once surrounded the home of Amos

became the property of the school.
me work that is done there. however
IS even more alluring than the beauty
OF the grounds.
Position OF College.
Almost every civilized country in
.ne world and every state in the
unlon has one or more schools for
Ine deaf, but 1t remained for the late
Dr. Edward N. Gallaudet to found the
nrst college for the deaf. Originally
Mutes, It's name was later changed

THOMAS Hopkins Gallaudet, founder
OF the first school for the deaf in
america 1t is supported by appro-
prlations from Congress, free schol-
arships being awarded to the stu
dents In much the same way as at
Annapolis and West Point. The pres
ent able president is DR.. Percival
Hall.
Miss Peet comes of family famous
as educators Of the deaf She is of the
third generation of those who devoted
their lives to this work. Her father,
Or. Isaac Lewis Peet. and his father,
DR.. Harvey Prindle Peet, were prin-
cipals Of the New York Institution for
the Deaf in New York city. The serv-
ices of father and son in that school
covered a period of sixty-seven years.
Mrs. Isaac Lewis Peet, as girl, was
a pupil in the New York institution.
having lost her hearing at the age of
thirteen. She was a remarkably beau
tiful and brilliant woman, and was a
great help to .her husband in the
early days of the school. when the
state legislature had to be persuaded
that the deaf would profit by more
education.
Authority ON Sign Language.
The daughter. Elizabeth. the new
president of Columbian Women, is
considered an authority on the sign
language. She learned signs before
her mother tongue. She has given
much study to their origin and deri-
vation and has written considerably
on the subject. At the presentation
exercises at Gallaudet College last
week she was called upon to do much
