Tony Hervatim Of Rossi's tod
Jack Dempsey as he boarded the
train Saturday night for Cajeme
that $4,000 boys between the
ages of two and seven years were
at the train to meet him on his
arrival here" from California Sat-
urday noon. Tony didn't miss the
number very far, at least it didn't
seem he did, for the crowd was so
large the former world champ had
hard time plowing his way
through to reach his hotel.
- . AN
Dempsey is a very neat appear
ing young man, and made a de-
cided hit among the fair sex. On
arrival here he was attired in
blue suit and wore a red recktie
and soft black hat. He immediate
ly visited the Stag Barber Shop
where T. w. Forbes had the honor
of shaving the big boy. Forbes
is now all puffed up and hardly
speaks to other BARRIERS about
town.
If Dempsey has anything wrong
with one Of his eyes that would
keep him from again meeting
Gene Tunney he does not show it
in the least. We wouldn't be
afraid to wager that Jack will
fight Tunnev within the next ten
months. He's .e only real 1ogi-
cal contender. No others in his
class.
Jack is a very accommodating
sort of an individual. He didn't

"Alwavs willing to cooperate,
said Mcdonald.

Even if Lieut.. C. r. Sargent is
unable to accommodate the big
crowd at the fight at the Ali

will feel well repaid by simply

and Labrador. It is about 20 miles distant as the crow flies from Point Amour, on the shore of Newfoundland, Labrador, where today lighthouse is located and a radio station. both maintained by the Newfoundland government. Greenly Island also boasts a lighthouse of its own. Its keeper is a very interesting man indeed and considerable of d mechanical genius. Most of his nights arc spent in tending the light and his days in sleep and in careful oiling and tending the machinery necessary for it's operation. He has quite a little machine shop of his own in the building connected with the lighthouse. Several years ago he was the only man along the Labra- dor coast who could boast a motor car. This car was a product of Hem ry Ford's factory in Detroit and was driven on a wooden track laid down from shore to shore over the round- ed back of the island. l have ridden with the owner and Sir Wilfred Grenfell over the island more than once. Gasoline is the means of To- comotion. When the trip has been made across the island south to north. the car is put in reverse and you ride backwards north to south. It gives quite sense of speed to be shooting along over the rocks on the wooden track at the funeral rate of 10 or 12 miles per hour and has been a source of no little diver sion to multitudes of fishermen and visitors on Greenly Island.
 AS I remember it. this island is remarkably smooth and rounded i over the surface. Many of the fishing crews from William Jobs Sons fish ing fleet at Blanc Sablon {White Sand) Newfoundland and Labrador. have been accustomed to spread their great nets out over a smooth rock for hundreds of yards, drying them and mending them there in the sunshine.

Somerville, N. J., April 19 ~'-- Although disinclined to believe the confession of a prisoner in the Fl Reno, Okla. jail. that he was the slayer of the Rev. Edward Hall and Mrs. Eleanor Mills near here in September, 1922, authorities today prcparcd to make a thorough inNes- tigation.
 l,lwin F. Allen, 2S years old, held in the Oklahoma city. on q charge ol burglary, said he killed the couple with the aid of his common law wife for S7,0oQ, which was paid llm by an Elizabeth, N.

 Prosecutor Francis J. Bergen, who pressed the investigation ot the murder which led to the arrest, trlaI and acauittal of Mrs. Frances Hall. her two brothers and cousln, sald he did not place much credence Ill the confession but would make d thorough investigation. Aliens cell mate wrote Prosecutor Bergen week ago saying the former had ad- mitted the killing, and yesterday the confession was made public by the Oklahoma sheriff.
 Authorities pointed out seFerai discrepancies in the contessioh. Allen said he had killed the two m
 
 September 14. 1922. He also said the bodies were left in Plum Lane. They were really found in an un- named pathway off Dc RusseS 5 Lane.
 In his confession Allen said nc first met the Elizabeth dentist, whose name is being withheld. in 1917, III Meriden, Conn. Their friendship was continued in New York, he sad. uh- iii late in August or early in Septem- her. 1921. The plans for the killing were consummated in Elizabeth.
 The rector and the choir singer who died with him were pointed out to him in a church at Perth Amboy. Allen said. and $1,ooo was maid him at that time with prom ise that the remainder would pc turned over when he had conplele'' his part of the agreement.
 He said he waited in Newark, IN J.. two weeks until one night MT Hall and Mrs. Mills drove in an au' tomobile toward Elizabeth. He and his wife followed them and stop ping their car near that city forced MT. Hall at the point of gun te drive to a remote place which he said they called Plum lane.'
 In & cornfeld near the roac there Allen said he fired four shot: into the rec,or's body and ther killed Mrs. Mills with the remain ing two bullets in his gun as hi wife held her.
 The bodies then were bundled back into the car and after driving a short distance down the lane were laid side by side on the grass.
 Allen said he then drove to Vii mington, Del. and in a wood nca Vernon burned the automobile an' a suit of overalls he had been wear ing.

STIFF TEST is
FACED BY %
TOUR PLANES
Excessive Heat Expected to
Eliminate Several on
National Jaunt.
BU United Press

BY United Press
TULSA, Okla, July 5.-Twenty-
three airplanes remaining in the
national air tour took off from the
municipal airport here at 9 a. m.
today for FIT. Worth, sixth hop of
the tour.
After spending a quiet but dusty
Independence day in Tulsa, the pi-
lots began extensive preparations
for the next seven hops, which are
expected to take the planes through
their most severe test. en- route
through Texas to San Diego.
Because of the excessive heat
predicted for southern Texas and
the high attitudes to be encountered
between San Antonio and San
Diego there is much speculation as
to the number of planes that will
be able to reach the coast.
Nearly all the planes are carrying
maximum loads and a great many
are forced to maintain a high rate
of speed to continue in the COM
petition. These factors, combined
with heat and altitude, may force
many to join the two already left
by the wayside.
The pilots brought their July 4
celebration to a close with first
count of votes for the air mayor
ship Of Wausau, Wis, and a prize
of $1,000 in cash. Each pilot was
allowed one ballot for each fight
made with passenger. The bal
lots contained from ten to 1000
votes.
Jack Atkinson, flying the small
est plane in the tour, a monocoupe,
took the lead in the mayoralty race
with 2,435 votes. He made twenty
seven hops yesterday.
Richard Pears, flying a Fairchild
cabin monoplane, was second with
1880 votes. Dan Robertson, pilot
ing a Curtiss Robin monoplane,
was third, with $50 votes.
