Geneva Decision

GENEVA, Nov. o. Up The
preparatory disarmament commits
sion today adopted a Dutch pro-
-posal supported by the United
States guaranteeing publicity for
war preparations and materials,
and finished the week with q rec
ORD of progress in drafting a gen
eral disarmament treaty.
Observers now believe its work
may be completed within another
fortnight, for agreements have
been reached as TO methods of lin
iting land and sea forces and ma
terialS. The whole question of air
forces. as well as that Of chemical
warfare regulations has been post
poned.
Hugh s. Gibson. the American
delegate told the commission. in
speaking for the Dutch proposal,
that full exchange Of information
regarding war materials was neces-
sary to the success of any diSarm-
ament treaty. His country. he
said, already has such a system.
The Canadian delegation also sup
ported the proposal.
The Japanese delegate, however,
said his country would not accept
such an exchange of information
for it would be considered contrary
TO the national defense interests.
The Italian delegation withdrew its
opposition and joined n the support
for the plan which would provide
for an annual report of all arms
and ammunition in service and re-
serve.
The encounter over the Dutch
proposal was the liveliest Of the
day. Ambassador Gibson threw all
his weight to its support, asserting
that failure to include such a pub
licity provision in a treaty would
rob it of its value in advance.
The British delegate also support
ed the measure, and Count Won
Bernstorff OF Germany insisted
some such provision would be re-
quired under article VIII of the
league covenant.

Fast Ketchikan Town Team Meets Juneau High in
 Opening Contest

All primed for a series with local cagevs and those of Douglas, the Ketchikan town quintet arrived here last night on the Mary G. IT., Capt. Otto Bindpage. It will open here tonight against the fast Ju- neau High School five.
 The visiting squad is composed of seven men, mostly former stars of the Ketchikan high school. It is ill fine shape for the series.
 Headed by Fred and Hans Peter son, both of whom have played here in former years and proved themselves cage artists of the first water, on the team are Spike Mur- phy, forward, Joe Bailey and Ly- man Hall, guards, and Joe Albrigh- ton and Fred Herring, utility men. Fred Peterson takes care of one forward berth and Hans Peterson is the pivot man.
 The First City cagers played two games at Petersburg enroute here. The opening game it lost to the all-Alaska high school champions, IT to 21. On the second night it walloped the Petersburg town team 28 to Is.
 The game tonight should be a fast, close battle. It will be the first in which an off-channel team has appeared this season. Coach Dunham will start his strongest combination, using Lloyd Bayers at center Berggren and Messer, as guards, Sam Nelson and Harry Brant starting at forward, with Bob Hurley and w. Rodenberg in reserve.
 As a curtain-raiser the Juneau and Douglas fire department quints will meet for the first time this year. The rivalry between these two squads is always keen and this game should be as thrilling as the nightcap. The first game starts at pm. promptly in the Juneau High School gymnasium.

i Within the last -ew years boxing has witnessed the decline of cham pionship prestige not only to a re- markedly low ebb but to a point where it frequently is more profit able not to be a champion.
 The best "club fighter" New York has had in many a day is Kid Chocolate, the dusky Cuban feather weight. He probably is the clever est, if not the best, 126-pounder in the business but he holds no title and needs none to pack 'em in.
 AS matter of fact two out of three ordinary fans are unlikely to be able to name the current featherweight champion He is well known in Hartford, Con-, as Christopher (BaD Battalino, but that's about all.
 Jimmy McLarnin probably is the best drawing card now in any class and that includes the heavyweights, but the baby-faced Irishman made a flop of his one chance to grab Ithe title. He has made more mon- ey and attracted more followers without the intolerance of a cham pionship.
 Certainly McLarnin has done bet ter financially than the lightweight king who beat him, Sammy Man dell. He is better card now than the ruler of his welterweight class, Jackie Fields, despite the latter's
 mquestionable ability.
 Take the case of Fields. He and Gorilla Jones were tossed out of the ring after six or seven unsatis- factory rounds at Boston recently. Jackie then was booked for a title match" in New York with the negro sluggef, Jack Thompson, but the New York boxing commission very promptly squelched the affair as an unnecessary encore of several pre- vious encounters between the pair.
 Benny Bass knocked out Tod Morgan for the junior lightweight honors, if any. Not only did this turn out to be somewhat empty victory, with suspicion cast upon the circumstances of the gambling odds beforehand, but the purses of both combatants have been withheld.
 It all seems to be part of changed order. Champions and championship matches have become tangled in too much business ma nipulation to appeal any longer to the crowd. With few excep- tions such as Mandell, Fields and Walker, the fistic divisions have no real leaders to follow or become excited about.
 For another example, peek at the light heavyweight chaos. Sine e| Tommy Loughran's ill-fated retire ment from this division, the at tempts to elect successor have needed only the music to make them seem like a musical comedy.
