YACHTING IN
 FOR BIG YEAR

NEW YORK. Feb 17.-The di- mensions of the four yachts that the United States is building to de- fend the America Cup were made known in New York recently. The yachts will have sail areas. of 7,5OO square feet, and their masts will tower 152 feet above the deck. The shortest will have a waterline of 76 feet and beam of 21 feet 4 inches.
 The longest will have d length on the water of 87 feet with beam of 21 feet. The other two will be respectively 85 and 80 feet (water- line measurement and 32 and 29 feet (beam). Three of them will have bronze hulls and the fourth will have composition hull.
 It is expected that the chosen craft, to be known as Glass J." will be much faster than the Reso- lute, which beat the Shamrock W. in 1920
 This years yachting season will be one of unusual activity, particu- larly in the international sphere, for in addition to the America Cup races, there is to be a contest among six-meter craft for the Brit ish-American Cup and the old Can ada's Cup, first competed for in 1907, is to be revived for eight meter boats.
 There will also be international races in Bermudan waters for six meter classes.

Reference was made in these columns recently to the popular ity of ring clowns, such as Jack (We WanD Murphy, the Califor- mia Irishman, and Art (The Great) Shires, clouting first baseman.
 The successful debut of the big gest fistic clown of all time, 270- pounds feet-6 inch Primo Car nora, clinches the case without ne- fecssity of waiting to hear from the jury.
 Camera, for the time being, is 50 per cent novelty and 50 per cent snowman. Somewhere, per centage of fighting ability may de- velop, for this Gargantuan with the features of a Gargoyle and build of a Neolithic caveman, un- occasionally has possibilities in his speed and power. Meanwhile no competitive whatever will be in volved in transforming him as a fistic freak in the principal centers of boxing ballyhoo His opponents will be handpicked so long as the customers manifest the same en- thusiasm as the 18,o00 who paid nearly $70,000 to watch the Italian giant perform at Madison Square Garden.

Tn European capitals, where the fight customers apparently are much more skeptical than n the American variety, the reports of the financial, social and artistic suc- cess of Carnera's debut must have created no little astonishment. They might be equally surprised abroad to know that Ponderous Primos board of directors collected in the neighborhood of $30000 for the TO seconds of entertainment with Big Boy Peterson. Moreover, follow ing the quaint custom in such busi- ness, the pay-off of Big Boy was cut of Cameras end. This made it strictly a sociable affair with Peterson bouncing up and down four times at the rate of perhaps $2,500 bounce.

KILLS INDIAN NEAR
BROCkTON

Charles Shields. a well known
Indian on the reservation. was
shot at about one o'clock this
morning by George Fast Horse,
another Indian. Shields died al
most instantly.
Shields and some other Indians
were building a house near the
Riverside church. He and another
Indian slept in a tent near the
house. Fast Horse had been drink
ing all day Thursday and had
been seen wandering along Wolf
Creek west of Medicine Lake. He
got back to Riverside in the night
and appeared to want to shoot
somebody or something. He went
into the house and took up an
high power army rifle. Other In.
dians took it away from him, but
it was discharged without hitting
anyone. Fast Horse then grabbed
up a revolver and began clubbing
one of the Indians over the head.
When this was taken from him
he got the rifle and a full box of
cartridges and left the house
with them. He began prow1ing
around a schoolhouse nearby as if
looking for someone.

COHENS-KELLYS
TRIM @ SCOTCH

If there is anything funniel
than a Cohen and Kelly" it il
another Cohen and Kelly.
The famous Irish-Jewish comedy
team troups into the Liberty
theatre Wednesday,, Thursday and
Friday on their fourth annual fun
making excursion. This time they
appear as 1.-THE Cohens and KeI
lys in Scotland'-and what they
leave undone in the way Of mirth-
provocation isn't worth mention
ing.
George Sidney, Charlie Murray,
Vera Gordon and Kate Price are
together again in this latest of
Universal's unroarious Cohen and
Kelly series. All are seasoned
actors of stage and screen, singu-
larly gifted for comedy portray
ais. They work together like
clockwork.
AS for the story, suffice to say
that the Cohens and Kellys, un-
known to each other start out for
Scotland with the idea of making
fortune off the natives. They
find that they wer exceedingly
over-optimistic in their intentions.
In so tough a spot do they find
themselves that they sink their
enmity to become part
ners again.
The picture is studded with hill
bits of business which
sound tame when related, but the
treatment of which makes for IN
comedy. For instance,
the Intellectual attempts of Cohen
and Kelly to play golf, their an
tics when they bet on the horse
aces, and Cohen trying to talk
Scotch, all are extremely comical.
1t is no exaggeration to say
here is not a dull moment in the
picture. The laughs blend
nto one another so quickly that
he mirth may fairly be said to
De continuous. Given a funny
dot and the finest comedians on
and screen, the result is
he proverbial foregone conclusion.

CORRECTION in
F. SCHAFER CASE

The Herald wishes to correct
certain misstatements made in the
story of the arrest and arraign.
ment of Fred Schafer in last
weeks issue. Schafer was not
bound over to federal court but
was held for a hearing before
u. S. Commissioner Stennes. The
complaint alleged that Schafer
gave liquor to minors but did not
allege that he took young Indian
girls down to the brush near the
river.
The case vas reported to The
Herald and a careful effort was
made to learn and verify the
facts. Questions and statements in
an interview with agency police
concerning the incident and GER
tain affidavits, and in a phone
conversation with the U. S. Com
missioner were evidently misun-
derstood by one person or the
other and led to the erroneous as
s~ertions. The Herald strives to
get the news straight, which is
not always as easy to do as it
seems, and when it falls into err
ror is ready and willing to make
corrections. Contrary to the opin-
of some The Herald takes
no pleasure in giving publicity 70
cases of the nature of the
above mentioned, and passes up
such as do not get into the court
records. When arrests are made
and charges preferred the matter
comes in the line of duty in re-
porting the news to the subscrib-
srs to the paper.
The hearing before Commission
er Stennes, in the Schafer case.
was set for today but has been
postponed for ten days.

A flag tournament is something
like this. Each player tries to get

strokes, supposed to be his av-

player carries a flag and sticks it
right when he runs out of strokes.
