DANCING PLAYS BIC PART WITH
 GAY DIPLOMATS

GENEVA, Dec. 19.-Danclng par ties play big part in the diplo- matic life of Geneva, where states men from every curve of the globe come and go throughout the year on League of Nations business.
 Typical of these functions was that arranged by the Chinese dele gation at the assembly this year. To the strains of American har- monies, Chinese and Japanese, Si- amese, East Indians and Philippians, in the costumes of their distinct countries, moved in rhythmic ca dence with their neighbors of Eu- rope and the Americas.
 Some of the leaders in world af- fairs make these gatherings serve political purposes. But many in- ternational personages dance be- cause they find in these affairs their chief relaxation from official burdens.
 IOCPl PlCocIlJdblNCS O1 dllllOol d1l J11- in-American countries in Geneva are distinguished for their enjoy ment of dancing and their grace in this exercise.
 Mariana Cornejo, of Perp; Aris- tides de Aguero y Bethancourt, of Cuba; pr. Gustavo Guerrero, of Salvador, president of the recent assembly; Dr. Alberto Guanin, of Uruguay, another former assembly president, and Dr. Jose Urrutia, Colombian minister to Switzerland, all take pleasure in treading a measure.
 1 The British devotee of dancing is Philip Baker, once a famous Olym- pic Games runner, whose eloquence at a conference table is matched by his lively delight in polished floor
 But of the celebrities who fre- quent Geneva, none enjoys dancing more than Dr. Fridtjof Nansen Norwegian explorer. This genial veteran likes plenty of room when he dances. Like a young polar bear on an ice-floe, he romps happily and to the joy also, of all beholders

SAMMY NELSON ID MEET HARD
 BOY IN HULSE
Local Schoolboy Scrapper Has Hands Full with
 Hulse on Moose Card

Sammy Nelson, the up and com- ing fighting schoolboy of this city, has a tougher proposition on his hands than usual when he meets Rod Hulse in the semi-windup of the Moose smoker card next Satur- day evening. And if he resorts to the charging tactics he used against Kid Roberts at the last Legion mitt- fest, he's apt to wake up from a recumbent position on the resin covered canvas.
 Hulse has a left that can easily stop those football rushes that Sam pulled in his latest battle. And he's pretty well armed to meet Sammy in an up and scrap on any basis.
 The local schoolboy hasn't been beaten since he started boxing some two years ago. The worst he has got was a draw, and that was in his bout with Roberts recently when in the opinion of many fans, he should have had the decision. He would have received it, too, II he hadn't charged too much, and that counted against him in the sum ming up.
 Sammy is tough and husky, but not more so than Hulse. Hes willing to mix it and rough going doesn't bother him a bit. And Hulse is more than little inclined that way also. Neither man is q finished boxer, but what they don't know about the finer points can be overlooked in light of an enthusi- astic aggressiveness that character izes the style of both. They arc evenly matched as to size ane weight. It should be great lit tie scrap.
 There are three other bouts or the Moose program and none O. them have the earmarks of setups There should be plenty of action 1T every event.
