81 note in this mornings press no.
tices that Tex Rickard has given the
public the impression he is to appear
here within thirty days for the pur-
pose OF naming an opponent for
Dempsey.
He is mistaken in this, for the
minutes of the meeting of the com
mission yesterday, as prepared by
Secretary Bert Stand, state that
Rlckard informed our body he would
be back within thirty days to report
what progress he has made toward
"a Dempsey Wills match.
"It is in erder to state now that
the reason given for Dempsey's
restoration to eligibility is the fact
that he accepted Wills challenge in
person and it naturally folfws that
should Rickard even attempt to dis
place Wills with another opponent.
Dempsey would have to revert back
to mis- old standing of ineligibility.
commissioners Brewer and Null
doom wete present at the meeting
attended by Dempsey wherein the
champion expressed his willingness
to fight Wills, and as far as the
commission is concerned and speak
ing Tor myself personally. Wills is
the only heavyweight recognized by
TINS commission as a suitable or
ponent for Dempsey. His challenge
was made in the regular way, ac-
cepted, and is now and always has
been matter of record.
Nothing that occurred at yester-
days meeting has changed my opin-
ion in tne slightest degree as far as
1T relates to Dempsey's ineIigibility
while ne refrained from signing
articles of agreement to box Wills
in defense of his title.
Nothing that was done at YES
terday's meeting changes Wills
status as the logical opponent for
Dempsey. What was done is making
1t possible for Dempsey to sign a
contract to meet Wills. / want
Dempsey to box Wills and that's
that"

Farley Sticks by Wills.

Moreover, Chairman Farley is
quite confident that Dempsey-Tun-
ney match will not be tolerated here.
if Wills is to be sidetracked. Should
Wills suddenly decide to withdraw
his challenge and forfeit his position
to Tunney, that would be a different
matter, but, as long as Wills's chal-
lenge is before the commission, the
negro will be regarded by Chairman
Farley as the ranking challenger and
the one entitled to crack at the
title.
Chairman Farley, admitting the
possibility of his being out-voted on
the title bout by Commissioners Will
liam Muldoon and George E. Brewer,
VINO are understood to be favorable
70 Dempsey-Tunney match, made
the point yesterday that even ma
jority vote of the commission would
not assure Dempsey-Tunney bout
for it rests with Colonel John J.
Phelan, Chairman, and ID. Walker
Wear of the License Committee to
issue sanction for such a bout,
and he doubted that such sanction
would be forthcoming.
Regardless of these developments
the outlook still remains favorable
to bout between Dempsey and
Tunney, SO far as Promoter Rick
ard is concerned. The match will
be staged in the Yankee Stadium
here If the obstacles which now balk
it can be removed If not the match
will go to Richards arena in Jersey
City, for in its discussion of the
situation last Friday the commission
discovered that Richard was free to
take the match to Jersey City with
out jeopardizing his Madison Square
Garden license.
Richmond planet., 1926-05-08

Rather than being clarified, the
heavyweight champion situation was
furtherN complicated as consequence
OF the meeting of the State Ath-
letic Commission last Friday after
noon, according to statement
issued yesterday by Chairman James
A. Farley. Promoter Tex Rickard
was assured his licenses would be
Forthcoming for Madison SQUARE
Garden and for the Yankee Stadium
he was absoived OF any violation of
commission rules in dickering with
Jack Dempsey when the board ruled
that under a resolution overlooked
in the general excitement and the
desire of Chairman Farley to force
Dempsey-Wills match. the heavy
weight champion was eligible. tech
nically, at least. However, if Rick
ard thinks he has but to come be-
fore the commission and submit
plans for heavyweight title match
of his own choice, the promoter is
mistaken.
Chairman Farley announced on
Friday and reiterated yesterday in
statement that the promoter must
return within thirty days to acquaint
the Commissioners with his progress
toward arranging bout between
Dempsey and Harry Wills. negro
challenger. Richard, after Fridays
meet'n announced he understood
Ee was to report back to the com
mi1sion within thirty days on his
'2Yy weight title plans and added
that Wills's name was not speci-
fically mentioned. Chairman Farley
and Secretary Bert Stand each de-
'clared with emphasis that the only
discussion of the heavyweight situa-
ton between the commission and
Richard was on Dempsey Wills
match and that bout between
Dempsey and Gene Tunney was not
even mentioned.

 NEW SERVICE

After eight years of continuous service the gasboat Estebeth of Juneau dropped from the Juneau Sitka, Juneau-Skagway mail ser vice. Leaving about the first of July from Juneau she inaugerated new Chatham Strait route be- ween Juneau and Port Alexander, calling at all ports enroute.
 Eight years of continuous opera ton on the above routes gave this staunch little vessel a mileage oi 7,6OO miles without any serious mishap. She made 816 out of S32 scheduled trips during the entire period. Five of those trips being to Sitka and eleven to Skagway. That she did not miss more trips to Skagway is wonder to men in Alaska shipping circles familiar with the treacherous winds and waters of Lynn Canal.
 While tho inauguration of this new route is . loss to Petersburg In that it was a part of the Peters burg-Kake-Por Alexander run, still we are just fair enough to wish Capt. Jim Davis the best of luck and success in his new venture.

H. E. Ellsworth of the Territorial Fish Commission predicts a large run of salmon, and silver and pink salmon had been reported in Resur- rection Bay by the 10th of the month.
 The Seward hatchery plans to propagate pinks this season for the first time. Heretofore all propo- gation efforts had been centered on the red salmon "but the reds are less than normal" says dispatch from Seward.
 '''An auto stage line has been in augurated to the Russian river trout fshingdistrict, to make the trip from Seward in six hours. That the run of red salmon in the Resurrection Bay district should be less than normal is no surprise to us. It has been our observation that every section that has been I used to fool the public with the 'propogating system of hatcheries' there is less than normal run for after several years of that ] system.
 The Naha hatchery ouft put ir several miles of boardwalk, pro bably to help the sockeye salmon find their way to the Naha lake but the only evidence practical fishermen have observed of that ] section is the complete depletion of the sockoye salmon. Perhaps with the auto stage now inaugural ed to the Russian river the pinks will be able to make a quick triI ln and show better results for thu hatchery.
 We believe in the propagation O salmon for the saving of our big gest industry but not with the fool
 money wasting system tkat rbotf Federal and Territorial funds hav been spent on.
