American Legion
Puts on.Fine Gard

The American Legion staged a
scheduled twenty-four round smoker
at Legion Hall Saturday night that
far outclassed any previous efforts.
Ultra science was conspicuously abb
sent every event from the curtain
raiser to the main event, being a real
fight from start to finish.
"The best I have ever seen" was
the expression heard most often from
the fans who witnessed it.
Ernie Ferron of Yakima met Roy
Cup of Walla Walla in the main
event. Ferrin appeared much more
rugged than Cup and was in much
better condition, but the latter was
very aggressive and forced the figh-
ing for three rounds, but in the fourth
Ferron took the offensive and started
making hay with his tired opponent
After taking the count of nine twice,
Cup gave up too exhausted to pro-
ceed.
The semifinal between Stahl Of
Adams and Tarwater of Walla Walla
started off quite promising but be-
fore the end of the first round Tar
water demonstrated his skill at fight
ing by putting Stahl down for the
count with blow to the collar plex-
us.
Dutch McFerron of Athena and
Kid Young of Walla Walla put over
great show. For four rounds Of
their scheduled six they fought with
all their might, Dutch having some
what the best of it. Toward the end
of the fourth with clout to the
face, Young went down for the count,
McFerron winning a much earned
decision.
The high school had their inning
when Gail Anderson of Athena again
demonstrated his fighting metal
against the battling Swede, Walla
Walla high school boy. Gail opened
up the first round so fast and furious
that he kept his opponent utterly be-
wildered but was unable to end the
bout this round. The Swede came
back stronger in the second but was
unable to follow the pace set by An.
derson. Beaten and too groggy to last
much longer the Swede was saved
from knockout by the Referee when
he held up Andersons hand late in
the fourth round much to the pleas
ure of his friends, especially those
in the gallery.
One of the niftyest events of the
evening was the curtain raiser of four
rounds between flyweights from Wal.
la Walla. Weber, rs lbs. and Scott 85
lbs staged thriller for four rounds
fighting every minute, Weber getting
a much deserved decision.
This smoker was the best by far
of any in the series of cards offered
by the Legion, and the attendance
for some reason or other, was the
poorest. The Post went behind over
$100 as a result.
The Athena-Weston Post is giving
high-class entertainment in the bo5
ing game. The contests are clean anc
are put on with no framing, and il
they are to continue, they must bt
accorded public patronage.

TWENTY DEGREES ABOVE
COOLEST WEATHER HERE

Some idea of how. this city has
been served by the cold wave may
be obtained by the following figures
obtained today on the temperature
of the past two nights:
At the pilot office on the city dock,
which is probably the coolest place
in the city, yesterday morning the
mercury at 1880 o'clock registered
twenty degrees above ger Today
at 1915 o'clock the mercury register
ed twenty-four degrees above zero.
At the water department office in
the city hall, the mercury Monday
night and Tuesday morning, regis
tered an average of twenty-five de-
grees above zero. Last night at IL
o'clock at this same place, the tenn
perature was between tw~enty-four
and twenty-six degrees. At IL
o'clock noon today, the mercury at
the water department office regis
tered thirty-eight.
For the first time this season, salt
water i'll the nearby creeks froze and
there is considerable ice along the
edge of the bay between South Am
boy and Morgan.
