 Judge Booth points out the total of these 16 checks amounts to $3,- 440.28 which was paid by the de- fendant out of funds belonging to the plaintiff upon signatures which were in fact, forgeries. He adds that the forgeries before the court in conjunction with. the expert testi- mony negatives the claim of the de- fendant that it was not negligent in making payments on forged vouchers.

The need of controlling the spread Of colds is apparent. Medicine has worked wonders in curbing other diseases, while colds become more prevalent every year. Likewise, more costly-in earnings. efficiency. and health.
 No wonder, then, that the new Wick product--designed as an aid in preventing colds-is being received with enthusiasm. Those who have not yet tested it still have the op- portunity of making the test at just half the usual price-by using the coupon which appeared in the Dem ocrat Monday.

D0U CLAS AND
 JUNEAU GIRLS
 BATTLE TONIGHT
Boy Teams of Two Institu- tions Will Also Play
 Basketball Here

Whether the Juneau high school girls remain as contenders for the Gastineau Channel basketball championship will be determined at the local high school gymnasium this evening when they meet the Douglas high school girls team in the fourth game of this seasons series. The winner of the first three contests gains the honor, and qualities for competition for the Southeast Alaska title against the victor in the Ketchikan-P Petersburg tournament. Last Friday, Juneau took her first game against Doug las; the latter has two triumphs to her credit.
 If Juneau Wins
 If Juneau wins tonight the last and deciding struggle will take place at Douglas next Friday. If Douglas wins this evening the se- ries will be over and the pennant will be hers. Both teams have prac- ticad hard in the past week. Both are confident of victory.
 An added attraction tonight will be a game between the. boy teams of Juneau and Douglas high schools. The boys championship series be- tween the two institutions was end- ed last Friday when Juneau was beaten for the third successive time. Douglas athletes are working to improve their play for their ap- preaching contest for the South east Alaska title against the win ner of the Ketchikan-Petersburg series.
 Girl Team Players
 In the girls game this evening, Juneau will start with L. Jackson. G. Carlson, R. Minzgohr, M. Meade, B. Vim and E. Rocovich.

.TUNNEY DEFEATS
 BOO BO0; TAKES
 TITLE TO CASH
Promoter Wanted 20 Per Cent of Gene's Roll-
 Slate All Clear

NEW YORK, Jan. 30.-For the first time since he earned it Gene Tunney is free to enjoy what ever remains of the. $1,715,863.54 he collected as world heavyweight champion without having to worry about some of it being taken away from him.
 The last of the lawsuits against him-lawsuits which began almost as soon as he won the champion ship and which, had he lost them, would have taken practically all of his earnings-was dropped by Max (Boo Boo Hoff, Philadelphia pro- moter, who was suing for 20 per cent of Genes bank roll.
 Hoff's suit, based on a contract which he said Tunney signed with him the night of the Dempsey fight in Philadelphia, whereby in
The Daily Alaska empire., 1931-01-30

return for undefined assistance in connection with the fight he was to pay Hoff 20 per cent of his earn ings as champion, was for approxi- mately S350,0O0.
 The suit had been pending for nearly four years. At one time in addition to Hoff's suit, Tunney was defendant against Timothy J. Mara racing man and owner of the New York Giants, professional football club, who demanded more than $400,000, and against John s. Fog arty and Katherine King Fogarty, who asked $50O,00o each in aliena- ton and breach of promise suits.
 Mara lost his suit when it came to trial in Supreme Court here last fall.

Rowing, described by the Carne- gie Report as apparently the only major branch of intercollegiate athletes from winch commercial ism is absent" nevertheless has come in now for some criticism spn the rebound
 A good many of the college folks do not like the way football has been kicked around since last sea- sen. It is not strange, therefore, to find an effort to divert this barrage of criticism, if it must be laid down to some other sport.
 Here's what Graduate Manager J. J. Anonymous has to say about it:
 a. Why all this uproar about foot ball, about spring practice and training camps? If you think we over emphasize matters on the gridiron, look what they do in rowing.
 of course, know that no mer- cenary motives are involved, for the gate receipts from crew, if any, hardly are sufficient to pay for bailing out the boats Nevertheless if it's overemphasis you're looking for. how do you reconcile rowing programs that include practice on the indoor machines most of the winter (Yale having 19 "eights" drilling); outdoor workouts as soon as the ice breaks up, spring compe- tition followed by three or four weeks up the Hudson or up the Thames, as the case may be, TOT the final big races?
 T have yet to hear any outcry against these training camps or program that keeps the oarsmen at work for some time after the school term closes.
 Moreover, rowing is costly sport to maintain. Only some IS colleges in the entire country sup port it. Cornell spends around S25,- eco annually to uphold it's great traditions on the water Washing ton raised something like $l0,oo0 by subscription to send it's crews to Poughkeepsie last year. Several crew coaches, such as Young Dick Glendon at Columbia and Rusty Callow at Pennsylvania are among

the best paid of all athletic men, tors.
 "I don't offer this as an attack on rowing. I think it is worth all 1t costs for the finest kind of tra- dition it sustains in sport. The Poughkeepsie Regatta and the Har- vard-Yale races are among the finest events of strictly amateur character. However, some of the critics of football would do well to balance their viewpoints with some of these facts
 From time to time bobs up the question of why West Point, with all it's natural advantages of loca- tion on the shores of the Hudson, does not go in for rowing.
 The answer is simple enough The Army is content to leave such affairs to the Navy. In short, a crew of Cadets hardly would be looked upon as an appropriate and dignified affair, in keeping with the best military traditions, despite the fact that Washington's SOL diers once manifested their rowing ability on the Delaware.
 It is not generally known but Army reluctantly turned down an offer from a prominent Harvard alumnus some years ago to estab- fish rowing at West Point, with all the facilities including a coach ing endowment.
