URGES AIMEE TO CONFESS GUILT
SeCeSSionistS Ask Truth in Kid.
 naping Incident

Los Angeles, July 27 tp - Aimee Semple McPherson. auburn haired storm-center of Angelus temple, has no confession to make regarding her story that she was kidnapped last summer and whisked away into Mexico while her congregation mourned her as drowned.
 Rejecting the demand of the Rev. Gladwyn N. Nichols. former choir leader of the temple who with 2S0 of it's members seeded last fall and organized an independent church. that she confess to the world" what happened during her mysterious ab- sence a year ago, the comedy reli- gious leader stuck to her story.
 Nichols publicly asked Mrs. Mo- Emerson and her mother, Mrs. Min nie Kennedy, to make clean breast of the whole affair for the good of their souls and the peace of their consciences."
 To which Mrs. McPherson replied:
 T am not surprised. Rev. Nichols and his church need the advertising. Very clever but uncharitable. After all these months of silence. it seems strange that Nichols should take such a sudden concern in my con- science. Isn't is revealing that this urge came at the moment when my name is in the headlines every day?
 T have no confession to make whatever. I told the truth and walked in the light"
 Nichols declared representatives of Angelus temple had made peace overtures to him and his flock. but that they never would return to the mother church.
 Meantime the dove of peace today lowered over the temple. which has been torn inwardly by a dispute over management. Mrs. Kennedy. dismissed as business manager of the temple. has returned to her daughters residence. Mrs. McPher- son announced Mrs. Kennedy would remain as the evangelist's spiritual adviser but would have no connec- tion with the business end of the temple.

WANT FIGHT HELD
 IN LOS ANGELES
Wild Reception Given Jack
 Dempsey on Arrival Home

Los Angeles, July 27 LP) - Jack Dempsey's home town today fol- lowed its unprecedented welcoming fete to the conqueror of Jack shar- key yesterday with demand that the former heavyweight champion stage his comeback battle with Gene Tunney here.
 Dempsey hardly had fought his way through a milling throng Of 50.oOo persons which 800 police men were unable to control. before a group of business men headed by Richard Ferris, proposed that he fight Tunney in oLs Angeles.
 Ferris said that although Tex Rickard was understood to "havs the bout sewed up," he did not be- lieve Dempsey had actually signed q contract to fight Tunney. Ferris told Dempsey the Los Angeles group would pay s1oo,ooo more than Rickard was willing to pay. Dempsey promised Ferris he would see him and his committee today.
 Dempsey's homecoming climax ed a trans-continental trip in which he was met at many cities by crowds with demand for "a speech" He responded at most places with promise to mail Tunney next time"
 He appeared greatly pleased with the interest displayed by fans in his comeback campaign.
 T believe that the people of this country are anxious to see me come back" he declared. Its worth a great deal to me to know that ] can draw a million dollar gate even though I haven't got the title-but it's worth more to know that the people want me to win.
 "Would you believe that 90 per cent of the fans at the Sharkey fight were with me?" he asked.
 Dempsey hastened from a recep- ton at a hotel to his home where his wife, Estelle Taylor, is ill. She was unable to meet him at the train because of a warning from her physician that she must rest and that any excitement would de- lay her recovery.

cult drives for & season, and his ITO passes to first is the most any player has ever received in one year.
 As rule, bases on balls are the result of a discriminating eye on the part of the batsman. However. Ruth's record in receiving ITO franks to first base during the 1928 season was forced upon him, often most unwillingly.
 Let me explain: Ruth, in 1920, had made 54 home runs. almost doubling the former record of 2y, made the year previous by himself. In 1921, he reached his peak with 59, the all-time record, while in 1922 he dropped to 35.
 A total of 167 home runs over period of four years caused rival managers to decide it was the bet ter part of valor to pass Ruth to first when danger threatened.
 During the 1923 season, Ruth became the "big parade" of the majors with TO passes. Despite the unwillingness of the pitchers to take any chances with him. he came through with Al circuit trips.

REOPEN PROBE OF TEACHERS DEATH
Sister Of Seattle Yachting Party
 Victim Gains Point

Seattle, Wash. July 27 R - h. vestigation of the death of Miss Vio- let Maude Payne. music and dancing teacher, who supposedly drowned on Wednesday last after a liquor party aboard the yacht Of r. Creigh Nel- son, wealthy broker and clubman, was renewed today upon the insis- tence of the dead woman's sister that "only half the truth is known.
 Although coroner's jury found that Miss Paynes death was by ac- cidental drowning, the sister, Mrs. Mabelle Fielder. expressed her deter imitation to employ private crimin- ologists in the case.
 In their second investigation. de- putty .coroners halted cremation of the body to turn over the music teachers vital organs to pathologists and chemists for examination and analysis. A preliminary autopsy dis closed no water in the woman's lungs.
 While not held criminally liable. Nelson and two other men were de- clared to be towards and morally responsible" for Miss Payne's death. by a coroner's jury. Testimony showed that the three men stood by and did little to save the woman when she fell from the yacht and that they conspired to conceal the facts of her death.
 As a result of the tragedy, mem- bers of the Seattle Yacht club were quoted as saying that steps will be taken to demand the resignations from the club of two of the three men. The two club members in. volved are Nelson and E. E. Bar rington, who was assistant secretary of the organization. The third man on the party was Captain A. F. Bell who is employed by Nelson as skip. per of the boat.

This was a little too much of a handicap for the Bearing Makers to overcome. The Fafnir crew came closets to tying the count in the third inning when they scored three runs on two hits. two walks and an error.
 Fafnir lost a chance to tie the score in the fifth with one man on and two out. Kenure sent a long drive into left field and raced around to third only to be called out for failure to touch the first sack as he hurried by.
 Argosy's hitting for the Rulers was a feature of the game. The fielding gem was turned in by Sim- ons when he made splendid one hand stop of hard grounder hit by Kenure and threw him out at first. This took place in the eighth inning and saved the Rule pitcher some embarrassment. The summary:

DeupSey IS really lIlc UulotdilulIl6 hero of the day as far as followers of the pugilistic game are concerned. His successful first step towards making comeback. his courage and gameness, all have added to make him as popular now as he was un- popular while he was the heavy weight champion of the world.
 The far cry comes from Chicago about the stacker charges against Dempsey. One of the members of the Chicago city council is quoted as saying that it would be disgrace to allow Dempsey to fight for the title on Soldiers field.
 It was always a source of wonder to us, who had part in the big scrap of 10 years ago, that those who have raised this hue and cry against Dempsey. never raised their voices against Babe Ruth or some of the other outstanding stars in the sport world. There are many base ball players, golf stars, tennis aces and track and field men who were very eligible to shoulder a gun, but none of them has received the rak- ing over that Dempsey received.
 Personally we view this attitude as silly because we know that, proud as are all the men who served in the army, navy or marine corps. during the war of their services, there isn't any of them who was un- der fire, who wouldn't have well comed the chance to get out of the mess after they once got in.
 No one likes to be shot at every minute of the day and night for days upon days and sometimes weeks upon weeks, but the patrio- tism instilled into the youngsters brought them into the country's service upon a wave of glorious feelings that excite men when the country is in danger.
 Sober realization afterwards that there is no glory in war but noth- ing but desolation and probably death awaiting. takes all the glamor from war and any man who has been in the thick of it. doesn't be- grude any other of the fact that he wasn't forced to suffer the same fate.
 Thus it is with Dempsey Stacker" is an ugly word to pin onto one single, solitary man when there were thousands who could rightly be called the same thing and in all fairness to the former heavyweight champion of the world. we say that he isn't getting q square deal unless all the others are to be included in the category of shirkers of their duty
