Dempsey An Idle Champion
 for Second Year In Row

Jack Dempsey, heavyweight cham pion of the world, has now been idle so far as actual fighting is concerned for the second full year in success sion. The titleholder has not engaged in ring bout since he defeated Luis Angel Firpo of the Argentine in their memorable battle at the Polo Grounds in September, 1923. During that year he also met Tom Gibbons of St. Paul in fiften-round bout at Shelby, Mont, and won the de- cision. For the past two years Dempsey has at various times been reported as signed to meet Harry Wills, negro boxer and most for midable challenger for the champ ions crown, but the bout between these two now seems as far off as ever. Wills has now been pursuing Dempsey for a number of years and on July IT of this year Dempsey ap- peared before the State Athletic Commission to announce that he was ready to accept Wills's challenge for a championship match, but, failing to close the match, he again was placed on the ineligible list.

Tunney After Dempsey;
 Nationwide Campaign

CHICAGO, Jan. 12.-A nationwide campaign is about to be launched to bring about a Gene Tunney-Jack Dempsey match for the heavyweight championship.
 When the break came recently in the Dempsey-W South Bend negotiations the Tunney campaign was conceived.
 Hardly had Manager Billy Gib- son made his opening statement be- fore several American Legion off, cials offered their support. The Le- zion, it is believed has been secret ly nursing the Tunney idea, and needed only Gibson's word to get started, Legionnaires are proud of their fellow-marine, not because he jumped into the big conflict, but be- cause his ring ability was developed in service bouts and he has proved by his victory over Tom Gibbons that he is a championship possi- ibility. They see in him 100 per cent champion.

 The schooner Boxer, Bureau of Ed, ucation vessel, under the command of Capt Whitlam, arrived in port this morning at II o'clock from Seattle and Southeastern Alaska bringing over 300 tons of general cargo for the Bureau of Education stations in Alaska and for the Alaska Railroad.
 The bulk of the cargo consists of lumber and lime aside from the rail- road material. Owing to the limited dlscharglng facilities of the vessel the railroad crane has been pressed into service and is now being used in unloading the cargo. It is expected the work will continue for a couple of days at least.

SERUM LAYS
 STUDENTS LOW

t PARIS, Jan. 12.-The odd case of a woman doctor being accused of injecting mercuriaI serum in treat. ing school children, with the assert. ed result that several of the child ren are suffering from a brain ma lady, is being investigated by the police of Suresnes, near Paris.
 Several parents have made com- plaints against the doctor, Mme Tob- oloswka, and state. that they gave no authorization for the serum treat ment. The Mayor of Suresnes, who permitted the injections, declares the move is only political, an attempt to force him from office.
 None of the pupils were treated during school hours. The accused doctor states the serum was given only to those children who manifest ed nervous disturbances.

OF REBEkAHS AND

The joint installation of the Re bekah and Odd Fellow lodges at I. O. o. F. hall Saturdaya night was one of the most enjoyable meetings the combined lodges have held for some months. A large crowd of brothers and sisters was present and follow ing installation a sumptuous repast was served, after which the members attended the dance given by the Starr orchestra in the lower hall.
 A list of the officers installed was printed in the previous issue at the time of their election.

ed along the line that Wills already has refused to meet Tunney, that a mixed match is almost impossible to stage and. that popular demand for Tunney bout is greater.
 Gibson's will endeavor to keep war records out of it. He is not mud singer. Tunney, also, has asked that there be none slung Gene has always objected to cap- italizing the fact that he was a ma- rine. He sees no reason why his war record should be injected into ring affairs, or, as he puts it, ''I can't knock out guy with my record and I couldn't use it to block a punch. It's up to my fists after the bell rings"
 This is a charitable view, char itable to Dempsey and Wills. Looks like it will be hard winter for Dempsey to dodge this determined young man.

NOME COUPLE
 HAVE FINE TRIP

1 MT. and Mrs. F. J. Hoelscher, of Nome, who arrived in town Saturday, l from Nome, were enthusiastic over their trip by dog team from the Ber- ing Sea metropolis to Nenana Mrs. Hoelscher especially enjoyed the trip, which she said was one of the best ever experienced.
 i We had fine weather" said Mrs. Hoelscher," and made good time, es- pecially from Nome to Ruby There was little cold weather experienced on the trip and roadhouse accommo- dations were good. We had a fine team of dogs and competent driver, and sat back and enjoyed the sensa- tion of gliding smoothly over the snow. At times the snowfall was so light on the trail that sledding was difficult, but after leaving Ruby we found some 12 to IA inches of snow fall and had no further trouble.
 We are not certain how long we
 
 will remain in the States, but expect to return to Nome early in the spring, possibly on the first boat North. Per sonally I would prefer going back over the trail but the Doctor has not the time to spare.
 Nome has been quite lively the past year in a social way, and when we left the camp, the dog race was the principal topic, although the snowfall was so light it was feared it would have to be postponed. Nome has fine bunch of citizens and winter there has no hardships and is quickly over. We miss the green stuff more than any one thing and while outside mia vegetables" \.
