fined his program to long walk
The champion yesterday weighed l6l
pounds, but probably will enter the
ring at weight slightly under the re-
quired 100 pounds. He was in such
fine condition that Trainer Teddy
Hayes permitted him to box only four
rounds. Walkers hands are in perfect
shape and the small cut over his eye
is practically healed. His handler said
he never had been in better condition
since he won the 160-pound title from
Tiger Flowers.
Hudkins, likewise. wound up the
strenuous part of his training without
a scratch. The Nebraska Wildcat ex-
pressed plenty of confidence and showed
himself ready to give as well as take
punches. His brothers, Clyde and Art.
who serve as his managers, are even
more confident. Four other brothers
and sister will be by the ringside.
Aces mother, who has planned to at
tend, is IN in Lincoln, Neb,, and ply
sicians will not permit her to make
the trip.
Walker has been guaranteed $75.0Go,
with a privilege of 42la per cent Of the

anteed $4,000. with privilege of 22ia
per cent. Promoter Jim Mullen Is

AIRWAY PRIZES OFFERED.

There is S25, in it for the man, wo-
man or child who submits the besr
name for the new airway between La
Crosse, Wis, and Rapid City, ). ID.
Announcement of a prize contest
to secure a name for the proposed
route has been made by H. w. Bockus,
president of the organization, formed
at the Northwest Anyways rally at
Huron, to develop an air line from
the government airway at La Crosse
to the Black Hills.
1--WE want the best name possible, ,"
Mr.. Bockus said. There is a great
range of possibilities. The line pro-
posed cuts across the great prairies OF
the northwest. 1t follows the route
taken by Coolidge in going to the
summer white house last year. 1t is
the first route to the Black Hills to be
established. 1t leads across two
great states, Minnesota and South
Dakota.
"The committee feels that the pub
lie should be permitted to name this
airway and is offering $25 in cash to
the person who works out the best
name. 1t is suggested that these
names be short, but long enough to
identify the route"
All suggested names should be sent

E. N. HERREMAN
DIES APRIL II

C. Nj. Herreman passed to his re-
ward at $50 a. m. last Wednesday
morning, in the presence of his wife
and son Charles. He had been a
sufferer from cancer OF the bladder
for the past two years, and last sum-
mer sought relief at the Swedish hos
pital at Minneapolis. After his re-
turn, his condition seemed to improve,
but during the past winter he suffer-
ed much pain, and only during the
last few days was it apparent that he
would soon pass the way of all flesh.
Deceased was born in Cleveland,
Ohio, May %, 1874. When six years
old, he moved with his parents to
Pennington Rock, Wis, the family
moving to Marcellon, Wis, two years
later. Here he resided until he was
seventeen years old, when he went to
GAINESVILLE, Wis, where he clerked in
a country store. While there, he en-
listed in Co. B, 22nd Wisconsin In
fantry, his enlistment swelling the
number to six brothers in service IN
the Civil war. After the close of the
war, he entered Lawrence College at
Appleton, Wis, teaching few terms
during his college course, to help pay
his way. In 1869 he came west, stop
ping in Mankato, where he worked as
a painter and decorator. From there
he went to New Ulm, where he was
united in marriage to Miss Regena
Johnson, which union was blessed
with three sons and one daughter, all
of whom survive him. They are Otis
Purcell of Indianapolis, Ind, Addie
May King of Pasadena, Calf, Arth-
ur Lyman of Minneapolis and Charles
Boyd of Bookings, S. d.
In 1875 he filed on a homestead in
Lamberton township, moving onto it
the following spring. He made some
improvements, but owing to the
grasshopper plague, he was granted
a leave of absence for six months.
For twenty-seven years he was one
OF Redwood county's successful farm
ers. When his youngest son was five
years old, he lost his wife and later
married Mrs. Subrina A. Lockwood Of
Pardeeville, Wis, who survives him,
as does one setp-daughter, Mrs. Chloe
Este Quinn of San Pedro, Calf.
In 1902 he retired from farming,
moving to Lamberton, where he has
resided since-Lamberton Northern

BIRDS FLY WITH GREAT ACCURACY Naturalist Says They Have
 Sense of Direction

Stockholm, June 1 LP)-Proot that birds of passage wing their way back to their original home with an unfailing sense of accuracy after months in distant climes has been furnished by Bengt Berg, Swedish naturalist.
 Bergs tests have been made with fthe Swedish gray goose, a wild migratory bird, which lives in south ern and eastern Sweden during the summer and files southward to France and Spain when fall sets in.
 He brought up a flock of young geese on his farm at Naernanaes, in the province of Smaaland. AS the geese grew and became ready for their southvard flight the natural ist put aluminium tags on their legs and watched them fly away one morning.
 Nine of the original 13 came back. One of the missing birds was ac- counted for by the greenkeper of | golf course in southern France. An- other was brought down in northern Germany, and another was captured by a railway worker.

La Guardia. Spain, June l. R- Once the strongest bulwark of de- Fence against the conquering Moors as we'll as between Castle and Navarra, this little town now is the center of Spain's silk producing in dustry and its products have be- come famous throughout Europe.
 It's once invincible walls still stand. But they have been pierced with windows and through these ore can see the plains of the Rioja vineyards reaching to one horizon. while on the other side are the mountains dividing the district from the French frontier. Below the walls runs the river Ebro.
 La Guardia has warlike his tory running through hundreds of years from the middle of the t~lfth century. when it was ai- ready considered most important fortress, and 1t was given in quar- antee and besieged many times.
 What is now regarded as its most valid claim to fame is the fact that it was nearly two hum dred years ago the birthplace of Feliz Maria de Samaniego-the spanish Aesop of Lafontaine - whose fables are repeated by ev- cry child in Spain. The 1nquisi- ton forced him to flee abroad, where he remained many years, but he returned home to die in the house of his forbears in the first year of the nineteenth century.

HEFLIN DEMANDS CAREFUL INQUIRY Insists Campaign Funds Probe
 Be Diheent One

Washington, June 1 Pi--Well for tined with advice from Senator Tom" Heilin of Alabama, and warn- cd vaguely that uncom fortable con- sequences would follow any neglect of his pro1fcred tips, the senate cam paign funds committee took it's in quiry to New York city again today in search of additional light on ex- penditure.i for Governor Smith and Secretary Hoover.
 To thiS end. a long list of wit nesses WIS summoned, including George Gordon Battle of New York,
 "a Smith supporter; James A. Hoey of New York, the manager of a Smith publicity bureau; John A. Stewart of New York. the chairman of q Hoover organization, and Doug- les G. Wolf chairman of the Hoov- ef-for- President business editorial advisory committee. In addition, John J. Curry, New York manager for Senator Curtis, was down for ex-
 animation before the committee con- ] cludes its New York session some time tomorrow.
 Hef1in, memorable foe Of Governor Smith, appeared before the commit tee late yesterday. While saving he received $50 each for "lectures" last summer, the Alabama democrat denied specifically an indirect charge voiced in testimony earlier in the day. that he had received compensation from the ku klux klan for speeches if several states, reiterated his con- tsntion, frequently expressed in his senate speeches, that Smith cam paisn expenditures ran as high as ten million dollars and those of Hoover three or four millions, and became involved in a heated argu- ment as to whether his plans for future addresses fell within the legitimate scope of the committees inquiry.
 The Alabaman warned the com- mittee that he would watch 1t close ly with the expectation that it would go vigorously into avenues of inves- tigation he had suggested.
 ''1f you do that" he said. you
 will find me cooperating with you
