ENGLISH CHAMP
MEETS BELGIAN
HEAVY TONIGHT
BY FRANK GETTY
Omitted Press Sports Editor)

NEW YORK, March 19.-Within
the musty confines of the old st.
Nicholas rink, where sailors and
their swcethearts used to skate, the
London fire department s contribu-
tion to the manly art of self de-
fenSe, Philip Shuffling Scott once
more will be exhibited to the fight
fans of New York tonight, in pos
lures more or less vertical
just how vertical young Scott re-
mains this evening depends largely
ON chance for Philip, on. the occa-
sion of his second American inva.
sion has drawn as an opponent n
wild eyed Belgian boy of 200 pounds
known as Pierre Charles.
In action Pierre Charles recalls
the lamented Luis Angel Firpo.
They have no pampas or at the
most a limited supply in Belgium so
no one has as yet called NJ. Charles
a wild bull of anything. But in the
ring at Madison Square Garden the
other evening Pierre acted like n
bull of the widest variety rampag
ing through China shop. Jack Me
Cam of St. Paul was the china.
Chance directed one Of Monsieur
Charles wild lunges to the jaw of
Mccain and the st. Paul boxer
bounced couple of times before
bringing up, prone and startled, III
close embrace with the canvas. Me
Cann was not as startled as VI.
Charles, however. The big Bel
gian's eyes nearly popped from his
head as he saw his opponent pros
trate.
With a snort of amazement Pierre
went into action. As fast as Ne
Cam arose the Belgian flattenPd
him until finally a straight right
tackled the Minnesotan to the floor
for keeps.
1t is something Of this sort for
which Scott must be prepared to-
night. Genial Gus Wilson. who
trains and manages Pierre tells me
that the youngster now has an idea
that all opponents are to be flat
tened and left that way within the
first three minutes of any bout.

Gray Takes Over
Dodge Agency of
c. W. McCabe Co.

c. \. Gray, accOrdingt to an
nouncemcnt made here today by f
J. Timmens, district representative
of Dodge Brothers, Inc, is the new
Dodge dealer for Imperial and San
Diego counties.
He has taken over all of the in
terests of the late c. w. McCabe,
who ever since the first Dodge
Brothers car was produced repre-.
sented the line in this district.
Gray, the new dealer, likewise
has been connected with the Dodge
family ever since 1915. Through
out his entire association with
Dodge Brothers, Gray has operated
the leadership in Hollywood, Calf.
When Gray first became dealer
he delivered 20 new ears during his
initial year. He considered that Il
good year but during the year
known as the 1926 and 1927 season
lie totaled 1850 ears or in excess of
a $1,000,000 business.
Gray has always considered that
service came first in dealing with
the public and has operated his
leadership after that code. The I'M
perial and San Diego business will
be conducted along just such lines,
he declared in San Diego, yesterday.
No changes in the organization
conducted by Mr.. MeCabe, prior to
his death, recently, are contemplate
ed Mr.. Gray expects to keep the
same force, with Earl Jones in
charge of the branch in FL Centre
and Harry Jones, manager of the
main office in San Diego.

a role immOrtalized on the stage by

SELDOv|A NEWLYWEDS
 ACCORDED BIG WELCOME
 IjPON ARRIVING HOME

At Seattle on the 17th day of March this year, a romance of years was consumnated in the marriage of a prominent business man of Seldovia, G. c. Chambers to Miss Lena Bloom of Seattle: The groom needs no in troduction to Alaskans, for he came here in his young manhood 25 years ago, and has been located at Seldovia in business for more than 10 years. He has prospered.
 The bride, one of the charming ladies of Seattle-and when it is said of her that she held a position of trust and responsibility in the wholesale firm of Schwabacher Bros. for 20 years some indication of her worth will be conveyed.
 The good people of Seldovia have, of course, been on the qui-vive for their omecoming-which occurred on the 18th of this month-but deferred the festivity until the evening of the 16th, at which time they gathered more than 200 of them-at the public hall and gave them a hearty welcome home The bride captivated all by her grace, winning manner and smile which she bestowed without favor
 Dancing and other entertainment was enjoyed until about 1 o'clock, when the bride and groom, together with about 25 people, went to the home of Ralph and Juanita Anderson; where, as only Mrs. Anderson can pre- pare, most delicious buffet lunch was served. Mrs. Anderson was assisted 1 by Mesdames the elder and younger Estes, Luyben, Mason, Simpson and Lippincott. Everyone greatly enjoyed themselves until early morn. To say the bride and groom were welcome is putting it very mild-they were doub- ly so.

ON MAKING A NEWSPAPER.

Getting out a good newspaper is q
fascinating task, but it is also diff
ficult one. No other job that comes
to mind is quite so taxing, so hurried
or demands greater pains. From the
moment a newspaper is started, be
it either daily or weekly, the work is
carried on under pressure, a race
against time. Put yourself in an edi-
tors position-could you do it?
Could you, for example, spell cor
rectly, offhand, the names of large
percentage of the residents of this
town? If you could do that, could
you write their initials correctly with
out resorting to the telephone direct
DRY or other authority? Could you
write down, offhand, the names of
your city officials, your school board,
your county officials, your leading
state and national officials, getting
all the names, initials and offices cor
rect? Could you gather the threads
of story from half dozen persons
and weave them into an intelligent,
readable account the first writing!
Could you write seven columns of ma
terial of 1900 to 400 words each in
two or three days, week after week,
year after year, and when you had
finished those seven, pound out two
or three columns more before press
time? In writing headline, could
you call to mind in moment enough
synonyms so that you would not re-
peat the main thought in the same
words? Could you judge in min
imum of time what size headlines,
and what position in the paper, should
be given to each of the seventy-five,
a hundred or more, stories that might
60 into your paper? Could you decide
in moment, of exercise "snap" judy
ment, on the dozens of questions
newspaper man must face daily and
get majority of them correct?
We won't tire you-but if you could
do these few simple things and thou
sand and one more difficult ones, you
should be a newspaper editor.
The point we wish to make is, that
one can produce a good newspaper
only after continual, diligent study
and years of practical experience.
You have heard dozens of persons re-
mark that they could turn out news
paper, and a good one, too, bit bet
ter, in fact, than the one they are get
ting. That is not true, unless they
have gone through the years and
study that a good newspaper demands
of its makers.
Were it not for the peculiar facina-
ton associated with newspaper work,
there would be no newspapers, for
there is no greater task master and
money alone would be far too scant
compensation.

the second bank. They evidently re-
allied that to do so would imperil
their freedom, for their fraudulent
scheme had been uncovered. A search
search of the city's business district,
shortly thereafter, failed to locate the
strangers, who it is surmised, de-
parted for greener pastures, without
delay.
This is just another instance which
demonstrates that it pays to be care
full, and not cash checks rendered by
strangers in payment for merchan-
disc. Local business men have re-
peatedly been victimized by shrewd
bogus check artists, some of them
landing" several victims during a
single visit. In this instance, the fact
that the local banks were open at that
hour, almost caused the forger's down.

BOGUS CHECK PASS
NIPPED IN START
New Ulm Banker Discovers For
gerry, After Merchant Re-
fuses to Cash SIS Check.

A neatly, but not lavishly, dressed
young people entered a New Ulm
clothing store, Saturday morning, and
apparently ignoring the proprietor,
passed by him and walked to the rear
of the place, where they accosted one
of the young men employed there as
salesman. They asked to be shown
some mems suits, and, after deciding
upon one they told the clerk to wrap
it up.
In payment for their purchase, the
strangers rendered check for SIS,
apparently signed by a wellknown
farmer of his vicinity, and drawn up
on a local mank. The clerk showed
the check to his employer, before ac-
cepting it, and the latter, sensing
fraud, suggested that the couple step
into a nearby bank and have the check
cashed there.
The couple acted upon the clothier's
suggestion. At the bank, they stud
iously avoided the elder members of
the personnel and approached the
window where one of the bookkeepers
was at work. The young man i'm
mediately discovered that the sigma
ture of the check was not in the al
legged issuer's handwriting, and told
the strangers so. He advised them
to go to the bank upon which it had
been drawn, thinking to call the other
financial institution by telephone, and
also to notify the police.
But the payees failed to show up at

was made last week when o. H. Beal
made arrangements to build tenn
porary pavilion on the site of the
former structure.
Having decided upon his plans he
last week made purchases of lumber
and two carloads of heavy stringers,
joists and maple flooring arrived at
Garvin Monday afternoon and is now
being hauled to the island.
There will be nothing pretentious
about the pavilion, which will be of
temporary design. Especial attention
will be paid to the floor, however. The
ruins of the old building have been
removed and the foundation put in
shape to stand the heavy load that it
will be required to bear. Rustic posts
will support a roof to give shelter to
the floor and it will be an "Open-air-
pavilion" in every sense of the word.
