GOALIE MAY BE THROUGH

New Haven, Conn (UP) - One of the most colorful goal tend CTS in big time hockey, acrobatic Vernon (Jakie) Forbes, may be through with the Canadian-Amer- ican League. The New Haven Eagles got him from the New York Americans several years ago. but now they have signed Flat Walsh of the Montreal Maroons, why may be less spectacular but has a repu- tation for dependable play. Forbes has given some of the greatest goal tending exhibitions ever seen - and some of the worst.

This list of prices, if put into effect in America, would be trifle unfair to all classes save the light heavyweight. I've seen Maxie Slapsie Rosenbloom in half a dog en fights, and if his Keystone Cop Comedy is worth more than $5S.50,, then we're Professor Ein- stein.
 That price of $19.50 for the fly weight championship isn't far off either. Since Rancho Villa passed on, the flyweight title has been worth little or nothing, with the emphasis on the latter.

Lusitania's Apenger Uses War Derices
 To Chart Rocks Off Coast of Alaska

SEATTLE, Feb. 20.-The avenger of the Lusitania again searches the ocean, but not with depth bombs this time.
 She is seeking and charting the hidden rocks off Alaska's foggy shores.
 From the wartime exploit of sink ing the "sub' which dealt tbe death blow to the big, passenger laden liner, the U. s. S.. Surveyor has turned to peaceful pursuits. Forty-two miles of the southwest shore of Kodiak island is her pres ent charting jojb.
 Back at Lake Union from a sea- sons work, and waiting for good weather to go out again, Comman- der F. H. Hardy and his officers are busy charting their findings. Two sister ships, the Discoverer and the Explorer, work with the Surveyor. For weeks the vessels steam slow ly to and fro over the same ex- panse, through fog, rough seas and dangerous tides.
 Fighting Device Submarine-fighting devices of the World war, adapted to marvellous accuracy in the fathometer and an adaptation of radio are the Surveyors principal instruments.
 The fathometer employs sound waves to read depths virtually in- simultaneously without stopping the ship. The device sends a sound out from an oscillator on the bot tom of the ship, and a microphone picks up the echo as the sound comes back, reflected from the bot tom.
 Knowing the speed of sound in water, the depth can be calculated by the elapsed time for >the echo to return The Pioneer makes a depth reading every 200 feet in water about 20 feet deep The radio device marks the posi- tbn of the bottom where the depths are read. It is called the R. A. R., which is short for radio acoustic range finding. A small bomb is exploded behind the Surveyor. Sem sitive hydrophones in the water

MONEY IS IANMEDIATELY AVAIL ABLE
SEY BUSINESSES FEERO PUSICH
 ACTION TODAY
Conspiracy Charge Against Douglas Men Falls To-
 tally to Ground

Conspiracy charges filed last week here by Deputy Federal Pro- hibition Adm illustrator Gerald Church against Deputy United States Marshal w. E. Feero and Mike Pusich, both of Douglas, we're dismissed today by United States Commissioner Charles Sey. This action came after the case fel. down last night.
 Judge Sey held the preliminary examination in the Commissioner Court last night with a packsd courtroom for an audience. After the presentation of evidence and argument by counsel he took the matter under advisement, making his decision at 1:30 pm today.
 Case Is Dismissed
 At that time he announced that the testimony presented by the Dry agents did not sustain the charges. He, therefore, refused to bind them over to the grand jury and dismissed the case.
 Feero and Pusich were arrested last Friday as the result of an effort by the Prohibition agents to trap" Pusich on the preceding eve ming. They were released on a bond of $2,500 each and the deputy was suspended pending the outcome of the case.
 Witnesses for the Government last night repeated the story given The Empire immediately following the arrests. MT. Church testified he had been tipped off to a cache of liquor in house at Douglas, and informed the liquor was owned by Pusich. He said according to pre-arranged plans, Thursday eve- ming he had telephoned Pusich someone was going to lift his cache Soon after F'eero and Pusich ap- peared at the house and were stop ped by two of his agents who were secreted in the yard. The liquor in the house, it was testified, bore tags on which was the name of Mike Pusich. The agents testi- fled they had picked lock on the front door to enter the building.
 Pusich testified he had received a telephone call and was told someone was taking stuff out of the house, which was across the street from his own residence He inn mediately went to Feero's home and informed him. Together they went to the house and found the Dry agents in the yard. They were not placed under arrest until the fol- lowing day.
 White Says Is Outrage
 United States Marshal Albert White today commented briefly on the proceedings. Tt was an out rage, and appropriate action will be taken" he asserted
 At the time of the filing of the charges, in announcing the sus- pension of Feero, he declined to say anything except that his of flee would investigate. The inquiry he said today, had not revealed any act of his deputy that could prop erly have been construed to be improper. or that tended to show he was in any way engaged in or connected with any unlawful enter prise.
