BERLIN, Nov. 1S-Boxing has be
come so popular in Germany that the
American system of matinee pro
grams has been adopted. Some 10000
fans" crowded the Sports Palace at
each of two recent bills, and it was
stated the demand would have been
even greater had it not been for the
fact that the bouts were staged in
the evening and many suburbanites
were kept away by the difficulty
of getting midnight trains home.
Americans here are interested in
the outcome of a challenge which
Hans Breitenstraeter Germany
heavyweight champion, had lodged
with an American boxer Samson,
who provided the sensation of the
evening in his Berlin debut recently.
Samson is reputed to have been a
sparring partner OF Jack Dempsey
s and to have made good showings
against such fighters as Tom Gibbons
and kid" Norfolk
Samson surprised the spectators by
showing a speed and an aggressive
ness greatly contrasting with the
sluggish maneuvers OF the native
talent Although 20 pounds lighter
than Hugo Podzuhn Q75), a Bavar-
ian of considerable ring experience
in Germany, the American knocked
his opponent down so often in the
two opening rounds that the latter S
seconds saved their fighter from the
other eight rounds by throwing in

a challenge to the winner and it was

the unexpected resignation of Paul
Carriger, field engineer Of the depart

Shortly after Burris resigned from

MONO COMPLAINS
ABOUT FISH LADDERS

(From the Bridgeport Chronicle)
District Attorney Chas. L. Hayes
has been authorized to write to the
County Commissioners of Lyon coun-
ty, Nevada. in regard to the dams that
are built across the Walker river and
both its branches, the East and West
Walkers, which prove barriers to the
fish from Walker Lake coming up to
the higher streams to spawn during
the spring months. The dams are
constructed Of brush and have no fish
ladders connected with them. 1t has
been stated that there was fish lad
der installed in the Fox dam, but ac-
.cording to reliable sources. the fish
have to jump too high to get over.
Most OF the fish bruisc themselves
badly, while others lay three and four
feet deep below the dam, becoming
easy prey to the "sportsmen.' :
If the farmers OF Lyon county itself
will put in fish ladders SO that the
fish will be enabled to come up
stream and spawn. it is certainty
that the amount of fish in both stream
and lake will be greatly multiplied.
A copy of the communication will
be forwarded to the California Fish
and Game Commission.

SCHOOLS REFUSE
TO CONSOLIDATE

The factions opposing the consolida-
ton of the Yerington. Barrett Plummer

dated school district were successful
in putting the quietus temporarily, at
least) on the activities Of those favor
ing the plans, at the meeting Of the
County Commissioners last Wednes-
day. when the petitions for and
against were canvassed, and those OPP
posing found to have substantial
majority.
The commissioners also authorized
the appointment Of two deputy sheriffs
at Fernley for the enforcement of the
alfalfa quarantine Salaries of the
officers are to be $50 and $1O0. This
is protective measure necessary to
insure the farmers of Lyon county
access to California markets for hay.

OFFERS PLANS FOR
CLEANUP WEEK
(Contributed)

(Contributed)
Mcpherson, Kansas, with a popula-
ton of well under ten thousand, plans
to realize their dream this summer by
the enforcement of an ordinance en-
acted by the city commission which
offers an example. to every community
which makes the well-being and COM
fort of its citizens one of its fore
most considerations.
The commission, after studying the
problem from all angles, has ruled
that no resident of Mcpherson shall
be allowed to kceps more than one
horse, COW or hog within the corpor-
ate limits. All barns, stables, chicken
houses, and even Lighthouses, must be
cleaned three times a week and the
refuse removed outside the city, where
means will be available for its de-
struction. Every merchant must
place wire fly traps at the front and
rear entrances of his place of busi-
ness, and all citizens must take similar
precautions i'll their homes, under pen
atty of incurring a fine.
Yerington need not go as strong as
Mcpherson, but let's start carly this
year to reduce the danger to human
health caused by fly-carried filth and
disease.
Get fly traps and place them where
flies naturally collect, this is usually on
the sunny side OF building. out of the
wind. Empty out the traps weekly,
first scalding with hot water to kill
flies, then burn flies.
Hold clean-up-week i'll Yerington-
clean up around barns. corrals. lots,
yards, streets and alleys; dispose of all
garbage, manure. tin cans. etc.
Let every organization and indivi-
dual in the city assist.
Let us find some way to have all
slougfs sprayed with oil, SO as to
eliminate the deadly mosquito.
If this is done we will find this
summer, that Ycrington is better
place in which to live.
