"ONE OF THE BEST"

1t was with great shock and sincere grief that
Redwood Falls learned last week of the murder of
Wesley Allen Fraser in St. Paul. But along with the
shock and with the grief the solace and the
isfacton of the words of Soaps" chief who said
Fraser one of the best and most proficient
in the prohibition service in the northwest He had
an exceptionally good record. He worked hard night
and day and never watched time the clock" The
who said this is less person than S. B. Qvale,
federal prohibition administrator for this district. To
be zone of the best" the face of bodily danger and
physical menace is no small thing. And assuredly no
one knew better than Allen Fraser just how great
was that danger when he entered the house of
who had threatened to shoot someone only short
time before. His army service had long ago taught
those who knew him we'll that "Abe" was simply i'm
pervious fear But to have that fearlessness
in the fufiment of the cold and unromantic duty of
removing contested coal from the cellar owned by a
with murder in his heart is different thing from
the fulfillment of ones patriotic duty in wartime.
Allen Fraser has earned citation for bravery in the
thought of every Minnesotan who read the sad story
of his going. Just how big price has been paid for
that citation only the bereft wife and the three child
rem whom Allen cherished can best tell. The of
being good citizen of fulfilling the duties of citizen
ship sometimes tremendous one. 1t takes zone of
the best to pay it in full.

FAMOUS DOG CASE
SETTLED BY COURT
DEFENDANT FOUND GUILTY OF
KEEPING, HARBORING AND
CARING FOR UNLICENSED
DOG.

The famous test DOG Case OF
Redwood Falls has at last been settl-
ed by the district court. The defend
ant, Fred Mickey was found guilty
of keeping, harboring and caring for
a dog over four months old without
causing said dog to be registered in
the office of the City Recorder. The
district court considered that the de-
fendant had violated the provisions Of
ordinance number 53 as amended by
ordinance number 78 and was guilty
as charged in the complaint filed
against him on May 10, 1927.
The case was appealed by Mr..
Mickey and was taken into district
court last fall. Facts on the case
show that on March 81, 1909 tire city
enacted and passed an ordinance re-
lating to licensing of dogs and On
the 14th day of February, 1927, the
city passed an ordinance to amend
section / of the ordinance aforesaid.
Both ordinances were enacted and
passed according to law, and they

Judge Gislason, in a memorandum
filed concerning the case in which the
tax was raised gives the court judg-
ment. Parts of it follow:
"The fact that higher license fee
is imposed for female dogs than for
male dogs does not of itself render
the ordinance invalid.
"The enactment of the ordinances
in question is clearly an exercise OF

OLYMPIC MARKS

Athletes Pace Soft and Sponey
 Track in Amsterdam

Amsterdam July o1 F-Aided , by a soft and spongy track. Olym- pic records may more than hold their own against the assault Of
 track and field stars from every sec
 ton of the world when the inter-
 national games get under way.
 A few hour after the President Roosevelt carried the American team into Amsterdam, Lawson Rob- ertson. head track and field coach, paid his first visit 10 the Olympic stadium and found the track and the intield for the field events in an "eminently unsatisfactory" condi- ton.
 Only a miracle can put the track into proper shape" Robertson said He added that it would be tough Joh to break any records here"
 The condition of the track is due to geographical difficulties. The stadium is built on marsh land re- claimed by Dutch engineers. It was not until last Tuesday, Robertson said. that experts in running track construction Were called in to see what they could do toward remedy ing the soft and soggy turf.
 The American athletes apparently are not. worrying over track condi- tons. After all. the softness of the terrain will handicap other competi- tors just as much as it will the Americans. Coaches have impressed on the Americans that their job is not to worry but to get into ion shape for the games which start q week from Sunday. The track and h9ld athletes, taking their first workout at the old stadium not far rom the new Olympic. plant, ap- pearcd none the worse for their ten day voyage across the Atlantic.

HEENEY RETURNS
 ID WORK TODAY
Challenger Refreshed by Days
 LayoH From Grind

Fairhaven, N !. July 21 Rl- Refreshed by days layoff from the training grind, Tom Heenev slid back into harness today for his last three days of boxing before he en- ters the ring against Gene Tunney at the Yankee Stadium next Thurs day night
 Heeney did no work whatever yesterday He forgot about training for the fight and everything else while spending the entire day sailing over the Atlaltic in the private yacht ot Rumson millionaire
 Today and tomorrow will mark the end of Heeney's hard ticks in the gymnasium. Tomorrow he will perform before the critical eyes of Jack Dempsey and Tex Rickard, on Monday he will bring his boxing to close. Light work on the punch ing bags, rope skipping and shadow boxing will constitute the days work for the challenger on Tuesday There will be no work at all on Wednesday Except perhaps. a long walk in the cool of the early morn ing.
 The sizzling heat of the last three or four days has almost knocked Heeney for the count. He has pers. pired so much in his workouts in the stiffness of the old barn that the weight melted off him too rapid ly to satisfy his trainers. His sturdy body is lean now and his trainers do not care to risk the danger of overworking him and having him go stale on their hands. Hence the suspension of training yesterday.
 In his workout on Thursday the challenger lost nearly five pounds.
 With the appearance of Dempsey here tomorrow. those in charge of the camp are figuring on an attend ance of upwards of 5000 possibly the largest crowd that ever watched a boxer in training. The magnet. of course. win not be Heeney but the old Manassa Mauler.
 Dempsey has no idea Of boxing with Heeney but may impart some information to the chal- lenger. Through his two meetings with the present champion, Demp- sey is in position to tell what he knows of Tunney's weaknesses, if any.
 The staff of sparring partners was being whittled down today for the final days in camp. Paul Swiderski, a light heavyweight from Syracuse. was dropped from the payroll. Ralph Smith. a o3o pound giant from the Pacific coast has gone. Phil Mercurio and possibly James J. Paddock will be retained until the finish.
