Renders Strong Opinion in Fairbanks Appeal Case
 Upholds Trial Court
SAYS LAW OF NATION
 IS LAW OF TERRITORY
P Pfolection Given Homes Tn States Also Given to
 Homes of Alaskans

WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov.
 22.-A decision rendered by
 the United States Supreme
 Court declared the search
 warrant section of the AL
 aska Bone Dry Law is re-
 pcaled by the National Pro-
 hibition Act. The ruling was
 made in the case of the Gov
 ernment vs. Ole Berkness, of
 Fairbanks, Alaska, taken be-
 fore the Supreme Court on
 appeal.
 Under the Alaska Bone
 Dry Law search warrants ef
 private residences may be
 lawfully issued upon proof
 that intoxicants are on the
 the premises. Under the
 terms of the National Pro-
 hibition Act no residence
 can be lawfully searched ex-
 cept upon proof of sales.
 Restriction Is Imposed
 In declaring that private dwell ngs in Alaska and other terri .ory under the jurisdiction. of the United States could not be search. d on a mere charge of posses. ion of liquor. and in holding nat the search and seizure pro. fisions of the Alaska Bone Dry Law had heen superseded by the National Prohibition Act. the Su- ,reme Court stated the National srohibition Act had imposed T on the right to search dwellings which applied Q Alaska equally with other DOT ions of the United States.
 The Courts opinion was hand- d down by Justice McReynolds n the case brought against Ole 3erk ess. Notwithstanding inown difficulties attending the of prohibition leg station, Congress was careful. T he opinion said, "to declare in he National Prohibition Act that nere possession of liquor in ones lome shall not be unlawful and orbid the procurement of evi- lenee through warrants directing he search of dwellings strictly private and not alleged to be ised for unlawful sale"
 Local Law Set Aside
 Referring to the Governments $ that both the Alaska Bone Dry Law and the National Act are in effect in Alaska. the Court said: '"rhc em- ,hatic declaration that no pri- late dwelling shall be searched 'xcept under specified circum- 'tances disclosed n general policy b protect the home against in .rusion through the use of search Certainly no adequate reason is suggested for withhold. ne from tliose wno reside in Al. iska safeguards deemed essential II all other territory subject to .ue Jurisdiction of the United

 At 7:50 o'clock this morning Capt. Giles was sighted over the Farrallones Islands, 30 miles out.
 Gets Away With Ease
 The plane splashed water and mud along the runway but ran along smoothly and profiting by previous experience, Giles made the ascent into the air with ease and the plane, weighing more than 5000 pounds, loaded with 3s0 gallons of gasoline, gained altitude easily.
 Giles last words were. "Yon will hear from me in day or so.n
 Capt. Giles borrowed handful of cigarettes and stuffed them into his pocket just before climb ing into the plane.

Delaney Barred From
Heavyweight Fights

NEW YORK, April 10 P.-Jack De-
laney, light heavyweight champion,
must stay within the limits of his own
division and not wander into the pre-
cincts of the heavyweight, the New
York state athletic commission ruled
today.
The decision automatically forces the
Bridgeport battler out of his match
with Pauline Uzcudun, arranged this
week for June %. AS result Delaney
nrobabIy will be matched with Mike
McTigue, Celtic warrior, on the same
date in a bout for the 175-pound title.
Mike posted challenge with the COM
mission today.
The motion to bar Delaney from the
ranks Of the weightier battlers was
sponsored by William Muldoon, ST.
year-old commissioner, and was sup
ported by Commissioner Farley, with
Commissioner Brewer opposed.
In effect the commission, according
to Muldoon, considers Delaney was
eliminated definitely from further
heavyweight contendership when he
was decisively whipped by Jimmy Ma
loney in Madison Square garden last
February. 1t was advertised as an
elimination contest, he points out, and
should stand as such.

Camp Stephen D. Little went into
the lead in the chase for the Southern
Arizona league pennant by defeating
khe Tucson Missions in a game played
~ sea of mud at Nogales Sunday
afternoon. The Douglas -Nogales game
was rained out here. The soldiers have
one. victory and no defeats to their
credit.
Rain fell almost continuously during
the afternoon, but large crowd
braved the storm to witness the two
teams in action.
In a sensational ninth inning rally
the Missions showed across two runs
on Sonoquies homer and got three
men on the cushions with one out A
close decision at second base on Aros
and high foul by Macie1 ended the
attack. @
The soldiers nicked Gonzales and
MsNiel for IA safe bingles and Tucson
erSors aided the Camp Little men to
victory. The Missions gathered 10
hits off Clark's delivery. The army
men made one error as against four
for the visitors.
Gonzales, who started the game for
the Missions, proved Intellectual and
was taken out after four runs had been
scored on his fast ball in two innings
Maciel kept the soldier hits well scat
tered, but Tucson errors helped to win
for the soldiers.
Castor started the soldier attack in
the second with single, and Turney
flied out to first base. Boykin sit
safely but was forced out on the next
play, Weston taking first. Clark
doubled, scoring Castor and putting
Weston on third. Weston and Clark
both scored on Harrison's single.
In the next inning Mize hit a homer
off Gonzales and Maciel went in to
pitch The Missions kept trying hard
but the absence of Captain Sorey and
the rain cooled off their hopes con-
siderably. They scored two more in
the seventh and another two in the
ninth, but the final rally was halted.

Learn to Swim Week
Starts With q Boys
Taking First Lesson

Twenty three boys took their first
lesson in swimming at the Y. M. c. A
Monday afternoon, according to ]. W.
Deeming, the physical director. This
is ~t,H annual Learn to-Swim week,
when boys of the community who
cannot swim get the opportunity of
learning how, under well qualified
directors.
Everyone should learn to swim,
whether boy or girl, as one never
top of the water will save life,
maybe your own, or someone very
dear to you, Deeming said.
1t is said to be one of the best
exercises that is known, as it de-.
velops all muscles in the body and
makes them strong and supple.
The instruction is free and every
boy who cannot swim, whether a
member of the association or not,
can sign up for the classes.
A new gym game has been intro
duced at the Y. M C. A. which is
indo6 hockey. This game has been
triedts by the "Y' boys, and it has
proved very fast and interesting.
The rules have been written by the
players themselves and it seems that
they have struck a good game as far
as excitement is concerned.
The indoor game is played with
four men on a side. A goal keeper,
a fullback and two forwards. The
game is intended to fill in the periods
in which there is no regular games
such as basketball and volleyball.
The first game will be played to-
night when the Trojans will clash
with the All Stars. The lineup for
the All Stars is Young, H. Smith,
Thrasher and Deeming. The Trojans
will be represented by Whitehead,
Reed, Evans and Magma.
The game is open to the public and
there will not be any charge. The
teams shinny off at 1880.

Great Mexican Fighter
OF TlOo Decades Ago Is
Finally Counted Out.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 19 tR.-
Aurelio Herrera, great Mexican light
weight of two decades ago, rested in
the valley of peace today after long
and losing struggle over the thorny
trail of the down-and- -outers. He was
buried in Holy Cross cemetery here
amidst much of the atmosphere that
attended the halcyon days of his
career.
Herrera died last week-penniless
and broken in body. The man who had
exchanged punches with the battling
Nelson, Joe Cans and Dick Hylands of
his day seemed destined for the potter's s
field. But not so, for if Herrera was
dead his friends lived on. The word
was passed along, it penetrated to all
places where followers of the game
are wont to gather.
Today many famous fighters of the
ring carried the old time fighter to a
fitting reward-not to the unmarked
grave of pauper.
Among the pallbearers We're Jim
Griffin, prominent referee of other
days; James j. Moose Taussig, noted
trainer and manager who helped condi-
tion Herrera in many battles, and nu-
merous others 1t was their final tri-
butte to a great fighter.

Batting Power

Cold statistics made it seem that
"Bevo" was all that he seemed to
be at the plate in the spring exhibit
ton games-a dangerous batsman.
At the time Ed Roush was a
holdout and it was only natural that
John McGraw was much pleased with
the batting punch that "Bevo" dis
played in the exhibition games.
Not rated nearly so good fielder
as batter, it was to be expected
that his chances of making regular
berth diminished rapidly when his
hitting suffered severe slump.
It seems that the high standing
that I am sure "Bevo' must have
had during those early days of
spring training with John McGraw
has underwent quite change. At
least I so surmise by the reports
that he will be on the bench when
the season opens.
The baseball experts with the
Giants rate "Bevo's" chances to start
as a regular rather slim.

Baseball blossoms


The baseball flowers that bloom
in the spring, tra-la, very often fade
before June rolls around. In some
cases the fadeout happens before the
opening of. the season.
I have in mind Outfielder Lebour-
veau of the New York Giants. The
ball players call him "Bevo" for
short Most of the Giants, even
the collegians, hesitate about the
lroper pronunciation Of the name
of the rookie gardener. So during
the rest of this yarn he is "Bevo.
In the first exhibition game L
saw "Bevo" perform, he cracked out
a home run on his first trip to
the plate. 1t was a terrific wallop
During the remainder of the contest
he gave every evidence of being
able to hit the pill.
A few days later, as lead-off man
of the Giants against the Philadelphia
Athletics, saw him repeat the
trick in the opening inning, against
so effective pitcher as Sam Gray.
