III ever thu contour of a hand re-
Elected steadfastness of character,
strength. vitality, courage. and in
domnitable will to win, Jack Demp-
sey's the one" says Mr.. Bacon.
His is prominently the hand OF
the socalled Marian. the man OF
Mars-the fighter.
ANY kind OF a fighter is marian,
whether he battles for truth or for
religion, or for pugilistic champion
ship. But no matter what the field,
or whether he fights with brains or
physical weapons, the true Marian is
: bound TO have certain distinguishing
marks in his hand, and Dempsey has
them to superlative degree"
MARS pREDoMINATEs.
The palmist explained that the
most conspicuous thing on Dempsey's
hand was the so-called lower mount
Of Mars. a proturbance on the side
of the hand just above the thumb.
The upper mount OF Mars is on the
opposite side of the hand. and he
says that in Dempseys' case it is even
more tremendously pronounced than
the other, proving that he can never
be utterly defeated.
Because the ring finger of Demp-
sey's right hand is exceptionally
long, Mr.. Bacon says that Dempsey
has artistic tendencies, and that
under proper circumstances the pos
SCISSOR might do exceedingly artistic
work.
other characteristics of his hand,
according to the expert, denote
quick working brain, and the length
of the thumb, shows an enormous
degree of will power.
Dempsey is "kind-hesrted and
sympathetic outside the ring" says
Mr.. Bacon, and capable of loving
deeply and lastingly, but not demon
stratively."
SPARED SIX ROUNDS.
With six hard rounds of sparring.
Jack Dempsey got back on the job
yesterday, after four days of idle
ness. Despite an oversast sky and a
cold breeze, he worked in the open,
wearing his full-length ring toys
Philadelphia Jack. O'Brien was at the
ringside, and after watching the fast
going, said Jack looked every inch
champion at the top of his form.
Dempsey took on Martin Burke,
Jack Renault and Larry Williams for
two rounds each. He seemed most in
tcrested in the novelty of facing the
New Orleans heavyweight. His work
" it'll Burke was fast and light, so
that the newcomer. who acquitted
himself well. got out with very little
punishment. He was rougher in
dealing with Renault and Williams,
and in the second round with the lat
ter laid him across the ropes with
right and left hooks to the jaw.

Desert Land Board
Formulates Policy
ToEnd Controversy

The desert land board, at a spe.
ciai meeting held here formulated
a policy which the members of the
body predicted will open the way
Tor settlement of the long drawn
out controversy between the Cen
tral Oregon irrigation district and
the Central Oregon Irrigation COM
pany. Involved in the dispute are
several thousand acres of land of
the Central Oregon irrigation dis
trict located In Deschutes and
\ Crook counties.
Summarizing its policy the
board went on record as follows:
That prior to January 1, 1929.
/ all OF the unpatented lands of seq
regation lists Nos. 6 and l9. as
they effect the Central Oregon ir-
rigation district. should be re-
linquished to the federal govern
ment.
That the Central Oregon Irriga-
tion company be permitted TO sell
water to the unsold patented
lands.
That the board should not at
tempt to exercise further juris-
dietion or control over the pro-
Ject, except as to the approval OF
contracts covering the unsold pat
ented lands.
That any Jurisdiction or control
necessary should be exercised by
the irrigation district, organized |
and approved by the board for
such purpose.
On three different occasions the
Central Oregon irrigation district
attempted to unite the Tater users
on plan whereby the district
would take over the interests of
the Central Oregon Irrigation com
pany, and undertake the operation
and maintenance of the Irritation
system. Neither of these attemptsl
were successful. however, due tol
the variance OF opinion as to the
relative rights OF the parties inter-
ested.
The irrigation company some
lime ago submitted itself TO the
Jurisdiction Of the public service
and attempted TO OBJ
