NEW YORK, July 3O.-Gene
Tunncy s plans for the future. in
clude an announcement of his re-
tircment from the prize ring, Were
expected today at formal meeting
Tunney will have with newspaper
men.
The widest sort of rumors con
cerning the future activities of the
heavyweight titleholder have been
circulated since he scored a techni.
cal knockout over Tom Heenev in
the llth round of their title bout at
Yankee stadium Thursday night.
1t is not at all certain that Tun-
ney will not defend his title once
more.
If Jack Sharkey attends strictly
to business and fights his way to
the top of the contenders. who
knows but that Tunnev would az
ccpt a bout witch the Boston fighter,
knowing that such a contest would
mean more than million dollar
gates.
Billy Gibson, the champion ;
manager, announced during Tun-
ney's training period at Spectator,

would be the last one for Tunney,
only to have the titlcholder deny
any such intention

competing with several large,
leather-lunged men in Texas for
the Democratic nomination which
so surely means election.
No one can say Mrs. Cunningham
hasn't a chance of becoming the
first woman senator, owing 10 the
somewhat unusual Texas election
system. Under that system the
senatorial candidates will be voted
upon come July IS in tho first 1ri-
mary, after which the two candi.
dates with the highest vote will
settle everything in run-off pri-
mary on August %. There are so
many candidates that the vote will
be divided over the field and his.
sorry has shown that almost any
one is consequently likely to land

IF Mrs. Cunningham happens to
Il land first or second place she
will have earned it, She has been
fliyyering from 125 to 200 miles

YUMA GIRL TAKES
FIRST PLACE IN
BEAUTY CONTEST

Imperial Valley residents who
went to San Diego over the week
end, report one of the best times
ever and are lavish in their praise
of the San Diego Chamber of Com
mcrce as host.
From the time the earliest arriv-
ais landed at the coast city Satur-
day morning, until the final event
at Mission Beach last night, the val
lcyieS found every minute crowded
with amusementS, trips about the
city, oportupnitieS to meet the citi-
zcns of San Diego and an atmos-
phcre of cordiality chat made them
know they were really welcome.
Yuma took the honors in the
"Quenn of the DESERT contest,
Miss Gladys Cameron, entered as
"AIiss Yuma - walking away with
first place Miss Grace Johnson of
FL Centre. entered as Miss FL Cen
tro, was 200 votes behind Miss
Yuma" and took second place.
Third place went to Miss Lucille
Huebner of Holtville.
4 large crowd was at Mission
Beach ballroom to witness the
crowning of the queen. Prior to the
selection of Miss Cameron, there
was spirited time as hackers of
the various entries solicited votes
in their behalf. The selection of
Miss Cameron met with vigorous ap-
plauSe and was popular with the
crowd. She was given the hearty
congratulations of the other entries,
who were the first to greet her.
Mayor Harry c. Clark of San Di
ego, offieiated at the crowning and
in a neat speech congratulated the
winner and assured residents of the
valley and Yuma that San Diego is
always glad to have them visit the
coast city.
The entire affair did mach to
promote a good feeling between the
two sections, and those who Spon-
sored it feel amply repaid for their
efforts.
Nothing happened to mar the en-
ioyment of the entire program and
the vallevites are hoping that some
thing similar may be arranged for
next year. if not before the present
season closes.

THERE was, according to Mrs.

was no need to make a will-that
he would doubtless survive.
