TEX RICHARD HAS EYE 0N CLEGHORN, ACCORDING
 LATHROP, MC DONALD

Editorially speaking the Seattle P. I. has the following to say about Wal ter Cleghorn, Seldovia pugilist, and of other we'll known Alaskans
 Walter Cleghorn, pugilists first Eskimo battler, vs. Battling Larson, durable Dane That's Tex Richards dream. In Cleghorn Tex sees a youth of color. A fistic youngster from the icy and snowy wastes that Tex once knew A battler to take his place with Otta Won Porat, Norwegian; Pauline Agendun, the basque wood 1 chopper; Knute Hansen, a Nordic i from Minnesota, or is it Wisconsin? And then there is Rogerto Roberti from the land of Mussolini, another companion for Walter.
 The fact that Cleghorn is an Aleut Indian from the Aleutian Peninsula, born at Seldovia, makes no difference to Tex. He wants an Eskimo, and he'll have one.
 It was Capt. Austin E. Lathrop, motion picture magnate of Alaska, mining man, sourdough, who brought word of Tex's interest in Cleghorn. Lathrop, while in the East, visited Tex, whom he knew when Rickard was a sawdust miner in the Nome bar rooms. The Captain says that Tex is watching Walter and told Lathrop that, if the youth was just average, he could make him monew earner in Gotham.
 Rickard was first told of Cleghorn by A. H. Mcdonald, in charge of the Alaska Steamship company's bus mess in the Far North. Mcdonald chatted with with the promoter while in Chicago for the Dempsey Tunney fight. And in the talk of pioneer days in Stewards Folly, the talk turned to Cleghorn.
 
 Lathrop and Mcdonald have post poned their return home in order to see a citizen of their adopted land in action. And perhaps to report to Rick ard of the youths ability.

into participation in another war
for redivision of the worlds mar

right-wing machine in the Jewish
Butchers Union, police on Monday
arrested three butcher workers, lr-
wing PELHAM, J. Reissman and ii.
Tullman, while peacefully picketlng
in front of a shop in Boro Park.

day and taken to Snyder Ave. Court
where PELHAM was released on $500
bail. and the other two discharged,
When again arrested on Monday,
they were brought before Magistrate
Dale in Brooklyn Court, who post
poned the case until Oct. %, while
the workers were released on $500
bail each. They are being defended
by the New York section of the In
ternational Labor Defense, thru its
attorney, Jacques Buitenkant.
\ All three workers are members OF
the new Progressive Poultry and
Butcher Workers Union, which is
waging a fight to organize the thou
sands of unorganized workers in the
trade into a militant rank and file
union. The shop which the three
workers were picketing had fired all
progressives and was operating with
right-wing scabs.
