MONDAY
kETCHlk.AN VISITED BY
 WORST STORM IN HISTORY

ketcnlkan, Jan. o. tAp-SWeep- ing out of the Southwest at a velocity of seventy miles per hour the terrific wind storm wrought havoc in ketchikan. Scores of buildings were damaged while 3 residents were tossed into the storm lashed water of Tongas Mar rows. No loss of life is reported. Scows and small vessels broke loose from their moorings and were battered against founda tions along water front homes in New town.
 Three hundred and fifty thousand logs of the Ketchikan Lumber and Shingle Comapny were carried away by the tempest and wind storm which is described as the most severe ever known of here. It struck the city at noon and the huge waves of the Narrows lashed the Newtown district fiercely fore ing scores of persons to abandon their homes. Hundred of fishing craft along the waterfront were in imminent danger of being capsized before the storm subsided.
 Early in the night the water had filled number of Newtown stores and passengers from the to af3n c,ynnnndaI iv l. ing from Seattle just. before the storm reached its height. The wharf of the Sunny Point Canning Company suffered considerable damage and the iron roofing of the cannery building was blown away
 The hundred and ten foot Coast Guard Cutter Cygan limped into port in the afternoon after buck ing the terrific gale at Dixon's Entrance, where the vessel was called Friday to take an i'll sea- man from the freighter Oakridge. enroute from the Far East to Seat tie. The Cygan battled her way through the storm to the freighter but the storm was so terrific that transfer of the seaman was found impossible. Dashing waves dis abled the controls and radio of the Cygan and her entire superstruc- ture was flooded, the galley stove vas washed away and water cours- ed down the smoke stack. The two engines were partly out of commission when the Cygan final ly reached here.
 ketehikan, Jan. 9. tP,-After preliminary survey the damage is estimated at seventy-fve thousand dollars. A resume of the storm shows that small shipping concerns were the hardest hit. Many boats were washed ashore. heavy scows were pounded to pieces against docks. The light power lines are down all over the city. The New England Fishing Comapny suspend ed operations when the power lines to George Inlet plant were wrecked. Many Of the new wood -en streets were torn up and dirt roads were washed away in places. Two Indians, woman and boy were injured when they. were struck by mast torn loose from a boat and carried by the wind
 Private advices just received say that the town of Craig suffered heavy damage from the storm.

Gene Tunney and Babe

Champions.
JONES CLOSE BEHIND
TiIden, WeiSmuIIer, MiIburn
Also to Attend.
BY JOE WILLIAMS
Times STAFF Correspondent

NEW YORK, Jan. Questionable
amateurs will mingle indiscriminate-
ly with professionals here tonight
when the 900 millionaires" of Mad
ison Square Garden assemble to
banquet the stand-out characters in
American sports.
This list includes Tunney the
fighter, Ruth the swatter, Jones the
golfer, Tilden the tenniser, Milbur
the polo genius, Weissmuller the
swimmer, Cook the ice hockeyist and
the victorious cycle team Of Winters
and Spencer.
AS dollar collector Mr.. Gene
Tunney, of course, tops the list of
the millionaires' guests. He is
sports first million-dollar per-
former. Which is to say, that when
you want his services you must lay
one million smackerS on the line.
This is serious money. On the
theory a performer is worth siza-
BILE percentage of the money he at
tracts, Mr.. Tunney is not overpaid.
He is the heavyweight champion of
the world and the heavyweight
champions, from Sullivan's time on
down, always have drawn the big
gates.
Still, compared to Mr.. George
Herman Ruth, who makes only $70,-
600 and plays in 154 regularly
scheduled games and at least Is ex-
hibition games including the spring
training activities, Mr.. Tunney is
laviShly overpaid.
The answer is not hard to find.
There is marked difference in the
professions of the two. All Mr..
Tunney needs to put on a battle OF
the century is someone to fight him.
Mr.. Ruth can not put on a home
run show unless he is surrounded by
two full ball clubs.
Tunney and Ruth are the two
biggest figures in professional sports.
Sitting with them tonight will be
Bobby Jones and Bill Tilden, the
two biggest figures in amateur
sports.
If Jones were to turn professional
it is likely he could make as much
as Ruth.
1t would not be hard for him to
get a $4,000 contract with one of
these modern-type clubs that go in
for stock selling and quick member
ship lists. In addition he could
make something like $4,000 play
ing exhibition matches.
Tilden on the other hand would
have hard time marketing his
genius. Professional tennis is not
a monetary success and the position
Of club instructor pays little.

which is expected to make a strong
showing in the Big Ten this season.
The Purple opens the season against

Walter especially has demon
strated unusual ability at the center

larly. The proves which enabled

BALANCING over the schedules
VI we find that Notre Dame and
Pittsburgh meet at the Smoky City,
Feb. 18. That is one game we al
most would pay to see. The Pitts
burghers are as tough as they are
made and probably the best in the
East. And Notre Dame isn't very
far from being the class in the Mid
West. We imagine the Irish will be
we'll satisfied as long as the Pitts

EOUR bells and all's well!

at Conference basketball camps to-
day as the Big Ten coaches pre-
pared to administer the final pre-
paratory touches for the opening

AS the Big Tenners slowly wheel

Practice games with nOn-COn-

pace. Indiana won't be very far be-

and exciting campaign. That much
is agreed upon. Off the Backboard's
