Sen. DU PONT MAKES
REPLY TO MINISTERS
Says He Voted Against Prohib-
ting Doctors Use Of Alcohol
for Medicine.

United States Senator r. Coleman
du Pont has written reply TO the
protest of the Methodist Episcopnl
Preachers Association against his
vote on. the beer bill recently before
Congress In which he says that what
he voted against was prohibiting doc
tors the right to prescribe alcohol M
medicine. not as n beverage. His re-
ply was mailed to Rev. William G.
Harris. who was president OF tn,
preachers association at the time tn,
letter OF protest was sent to tho sen.
ator. and Rev. George w. Bounds
secretary, who signed the letter II
their then official capacities.
Senator du Pont says:
Denr Sirs.
/ am I'm receipt OF your letter OF
December I, 1921, which seems TO
have been delayed FIVE or six
days, In which you say you are
deeply gricved and painfully hurt
by my attitude" etc,
My position is this; our doctors
are trained To prolong life and
help people who are sick. and are
allowed to prescribe medicine,
cines much more Injurious than
whisky or beer I'm saving life or
alleviatinR pain. II doctor be-
lievcs whisky or beer is the right
thing as medicine. I believe he
should be able to prescribe It.
/ am surprised that your or
ganization should feel that doc
tor has no right TO do something
which he knows would help re-
lievc suffering of human beings.
Remember. that what 7 voted
against was prohibiting doctors
the right to prescribe these
articles as medicine. not as n bev-
crage. and ! hope your organiza-
tion will agree that doctor
should do all In his power to pro-
long life, to help the sick and 10
alleviate pain, and I think we
should do all we can to equip our
doctors with every facility to do
this. Yours very truly.

- INDOOR FIELD MEET POSTPONED A WEEK

Because some of the promoters of the affair have been so exceed ingly busy with other matters that they have had no time to attend to arrangements, the indoor field meet that was to have been held at the Douglas Natatorium next Fri day night has been postponed for one week It will be held at the same place Friday evening, April 8.
 This decision was arrived at to- day after conference between various men who are interesting themselves in the event. It is con- sidered that more time will have been had for training by the en- trants and much better results will be had on the latter date.
 Among the features of the even. ing will be a three-mile run, for which a Douglas and Juneau man are training

 Jurich. Douglas southpaw, hit Runquist of Treadwell with every thing but the water-bucket in their little four-round seance and sev- eral times sent him to the floor with wicked jabs to the stomach. Run quist came out from behind his gloves only once or twice, and then met such barrage of blows that he would promptly retire behind them again. Jurich showed much cleverness and hitting ability for his first appearance in the ring and had all the best of every round in aggressiveness and ability
 Brown Mops Up
 With terrific Iefts to the jaw, Brown, the Douglas High School boy, flattened Lauretto three times in rapid succession and had him in such distress that the fight was called off. Starting from the bell in the first round, these two men prowl- ed around each other seeking an opening for more than a minute, with the crowd bowling for action. Suddenly they both let go swings to- gether and the fight was on, with neither man trying to block with anything but their faces. Brown was hitting the more powerful blows but neither seemed to be damaged when they went to their corners.
 At the beginning of the second they both prowled for a second or two, when Lauretto stung Brown with a blow that evidently peeved him. for he started 'mopping up" and in a very few seconds the little affair was all over and Brown was the victor in his first ring battle
 Happy Crowd
 It was a good natured crowd easily swayed to applause, that crowded the A. B. Hall last night to witness the third of the Ameri can Legion smokers to be given by the local post The whole affair went off with snap that was re- freshing. There were no tiresome waits. When 9 o'clock came the first man crawled through the ropes and when one pair of scrappers were dragged out, two more were on hand to take their places

COLLIER SLIPS SLEEP-PR0DuCER
 TO DE ARMOND IN FIRST ROUND:
 CARLOS TOO SPEEDY FOR GRAHAM

swapped punches quite freely, Ora ham depending on a left hook to do damage, while Carlos hit with either hand from most any angle. This round was the most even, with Car los having but a shade the best of it. Graham in failing to follow up his punches and giving ground con- tinually, lost considerable advan- tage.
 In the second and third rounds. Graham was knocked down for the count of nine several times with right and left swings on the jaw and was in considerable distress, al though at times showing signs of speed and hitting ability.
 Intriguing
 Chased as another of the main events, the Johanson-Clorretto light weight battle was scheduled to go six rounds, but was stopped in the fourth by Referee Jack Wilson. when Clorretto, in distress, kept hanging on to the ropes to keep from falling after a succession of body blows that had hurt and weak ened him. These two men met like two strange bull dogs and much of the battle was one of mitigating, the rules allowing them to hit with one hand free. Johanson excelled at this style of fighting and it was evident after the first round that his ripping blows to the stomach, heart and kidneys was telling on Clorretto, who showed his gameLess by staying and taking punishment round after round and frequently swapping blow for blow.
 The PreIiminaries
 Mickie Mccormick, looking like a pair of animated toothpicks and not showing his hundred pounds in weight put up a game little fight for four rounds against Scataglini who had twenty pounds in weight over him, in the curtain-raiser. but lost the decision by the judges de- cision. Scat frequently toppled his lighter opponent over by blows and by showing, but Mickie would bounce

A right cross, whipped over as Collier and landing under DeArm ond's left ear, sent the soldier boy to the canvas for the fatal count of ten two minutes after the begin ming of the first round of their scheduled six-round bout at tbe American Legion smoker at the A B Hall last night. The knockout brought the big crowd of fans to it's feet cheering for the husky, hard hitting native boy.
 The battle started out lively with the soldier doing most of the lead ing and landing several damaging uppercuts. He proved to be both clever and hard-hitting but appar- ently underestimated the ability of his opponent DeArmond had a good lead when. by a series of rushes, Collier chased him into his corner and, taking advantage of a brief opening in his guard. sent over the sleep producer. The sol ulSI was Oul-tely lHuCu -dHu not only stayed down for the count of ten but for a considerable while afterwards. Evidently he was badly stunned
 The two men as they faced each other at the beginning of the match looked to be both in perfect physi- cal condition. The soldier is mus cular, but not quite as tall or as fast as Collier He seemed to be an exceedingly clever boxer. De- Almonds weight was announced at 155 pounds and Golfers at 160
