M RS. SAM WHITMAN PASSES AWAY, SEATTLE

Mrs. Sam Weitzman, widow of the Alaska pioneer of Haines, who died about eight years ago, passed away in Seattle on Sep tember according to letter ad- vices received by w. D. Gross in the mail last night on the Prin- cess Louise. Death was caused by a cancer from which she has suffered for some time. She was buried beside her husband in a Seattle cemetery. She leaves an adopted son, Nathan, about 13 years of age, in Seattle.
 Mrs. Weitzman went south from Haines about three weeks ago in search for medical relief. Mrs. Weitzman came north from Seattle in the Klondike days of '97, in company with MT. Gross and others and joined her hus-
 band, then in business at Dyea. When the White Pass and Yukon
 Route started operation and Dyea
 went down, the Weitzmans moved
 tc Haines and located. Following Mr. Weitzman's death, Mrs. Weitzman continued resident of Haines until going south about three weeks ago. She was about 60 years of age.

GIANTS AND
 CARDS SPLIT
 DOUBLE GAME
Ho gan Raps Out Home Run with Bases Loaded
 to Win Second Game

POLO GROUNDS, N. Y, Sept. 21.=Big Frank Hogan, stepping into his role like dime novel hero, yesterday afternoon saved what little remains of the Giants pennant hopes, just as it seemed the Cardinals were about to cap ture a double victory and almost cinching the flag.
 With two men out and the bases full, in the eighth inning of the second game, Hogan smashed one of Alexander's curves for a home run enabling the Giants to come from behind to win 2 to 4 after losing the first game 8 to 5. The Cardinals thus kept a two-game lead over the Giants.
 The Cardinals and Giants have nine more games to play.

BOARD FORMED TO HANDLE ALL
 BOXING BOUTS
F our Local Organizations Sponsor Commission
 Name Representatives

A box>sg commission Of five members to have general jurisdie- tion over boxing matches in Ju- neau backed to the limit by those organizations which in the past have sponsored such events, is about to come into existence, it became known today. Four local organizations have appointed Con- missioners and the fifth is to be elected by these four.
 The commissioners and the lodges they represent, are:
 Karl Theile, Elks.
 Tom Mccartney, American Le- zion.
 Tom Shearer, Moose.
 Ralph Martin, Eagles.
 It is understood the Commis- sioners will hold their first meet
The Daily Alaska empire., 1928-09-21

ing within a few days. Their first act will be to elect fifth mem- Der so that a permanent. organiza- tion can be formed and rules pro mulgated.
 The Commission will have no other authority than that bestowed on it by the sponsors. However, it is pointed out. these organiza- tions have in the past fostered the amateur boxing game and staked the only smokers to be given. This means that the power of the Com mission will be almost absolute as long as it's packers stand pat.
 It's duties will be largely to- ward keeping the boxing game on purely amateur plane, and keep ing abuses out of the amateur game. It will assign dates to the various organizations seeking to put on boxing shows, preventing any conflicts and disputes between them. It will have the power to cause boxers to be examined by competent physicians before per hitting them to go on in bouts and to refuse them permission to go on if physically unfit. It will also be the sole authority for the appointment of ring officials, refe- rees, judges, etc.
 Jack Wilson, oldtime boxer and later referee and matchmaker oi hundreds of bouts on Gastinear Channel, is credited with being the

father of the Commission. He suggested the idea last summer immediately following the Ameri- can Legion Smoker on July g. l. was received with favor by the four lodges now represented on it and by fight fans generally.

| start about the fourth of March. One
OF the units OF the machine, styled the
central explosive chamber. and described
as complex ane forbidding piece of
apparatus. is comQsted. and. the dis
patch says. hundreds Of people are
daily travelling to the Condit laboratory
to see It. SO far there is no suggestion
OF the formation OF n stock company,
and this fact raises credence In the
good faith of the daring inventor, who,
it would seem. proposes to risk no other
life than his own in his adventure.
Discussion OF the Condit enterprise
has already raised the question OF how
the professor will return II he should
succeed In reaching Venus. His re-
joinder to this query is another one
Why cross bridges?" he asks. Il am
not there vet, and I may not want to
return II do make It," Which Is a
philosophical posture worthy OF respect
for It's candor. or course, scientists
are skcptical. They are figuring on
mosphere, which in the case OF mctcors
is known to be sufficient to fuse the
metallic elements Of which they are
composed, and they cite tho possibility
of an abrupt return to the earth of a
molten mass in which the charred re-
mains Of the intrepid voyagcr may be
found, assuming that the apparatus
gets far enough from the surface.
1t is not becoming to chidc the ardor
Of these pioneers Of transportation
The history of invention Is replcte with
instances of daring that have demon
strated the possibility OF overcoming
what had at the time been recognized
as natural laws. Much of the ad-
vance in mechanical matters has been
achieved through seemingly desperate
and hopeless defiance OF established
rules and apparently fixed limitations.
Yet planetary flights are still reasonably
to be regarded as at least hazardous.

A F1ying Stunt,

Gene Shank, described as the flying
st. Paul law student, has distinguished
himself by establishing a world record
In making SIS loops In an airplane In
258 minutes. or approximately two loops
In each minute. This exceeds the
record OF the Flying Parson." who In
France made 3l5 loops, in one flight.
This Is undoubtedly an extraordinary
performance. But what does It accom-
plish? What does it prove? OF what
utility could 1t possibly be? y.
In war service there is some advarr-
tage In capacity TO make quick turns and
loops and dives. Indeed the ability OF
a military aviator engaged In combat or
pursuit is largely measured by his con-
troll over the plane. He must loop and
swing and maneuver with speed and
| precision. But the man who can make
one loop or a dozen Is as competent for
| this service as one who can make two
a minute and keep up the performance
| for more than four hours.
The race for records In the air has
undoubtedly applied severe tests 10 both
planes and men. and has perhaps.
through the development OF faults Of
machines and their correction, subse-
quen.iy aided In the advancement OF
the flying art. But going up 10 establish
q looping record Is nothing more than
stunt flying. which is now under the
ban as . needless. fruitless form OF
! sport.

Fewer Fish in Lake Erie.

Alarm is expressed by fishermen and
marine scientists concerning the evident
depletion Of the fish life in Lake Erie,
once one OF the most heavily stocked
fresh-water lakes in this country. Ex-
perts from both this country and Cam
ada are meeting today at Cleveland
TO lay plans for scientific investiga-
ton which 1t is hoped will reveal the
cause. 1t Is possible that there have
been physical and chemical variations
in the waters of the lake due to pollu-
ton. II this is the case the problem OF
correction will be difficult OF solution.
II. on the other hand, excessive COM
mercial fishing has depleted the marine
life In the lake, measures may be adopt
ed to restrict the catches or to regulate
the methods employed to prevent excess
sive hauls and the destruction OF roe
bearing fish.
Erie. the last Of the chain OF lakes
above Niagara, is a receptacle for all OF
the drainage Of wide area. With the
growth OF population in the watershed
OF the lake system 1t is quite possible
that there has been such pollution Of
the waters as to affect marine life.
The lake Is shallow, its average depth
being much less than those OF Huron.
Michigan and Superior. That fact may
perhaps account for the depletion in
some measure. coupled with the pollu-
ton OF the waters.
A fish patrol by both governments to
prevent the use OF improper methods
would require an extensive organiza-
ton. but 1t would be possible to MAIN
tain an effective supervision. Certainly
It is to be hoped that the cause Of
this depletion will be determined and
corrected.
