COMPLAINT

Circuit Court Judge Walter T.
Mccarthy, of Arlington county,
Va, today refused to take any
action on charges by L. c. Mac
Pherson, county Republican chaif-
man, that county officials were
using their automobiles as a
means of furthering partisan
politics.
The controversy grew out of the
fact that the automobiles used by
the county police force, their own
property, bore signs advocating
the election of Franklin D. Roose-
welt for President. =
Judge Mccarthy contended he
had nothing to do with the mat
ter and felt he would be over
stepping his powers if he took
action.

The Daily Alaska empire., 1932-06-21

NEW YORK, June 21. = Max Schmeling stepped out of the ring at the Yankee Stadium two years ago, the new heavyweight cham pion-with face that looked as though someone had been batter ing it with soft rubber hose.
 Down the opposite steps stalked Jack Sharkey, without a mark on him, but officially beaten by low left hook he thudded into the Ger mans groin in the fourth round
 That foul ended as one sided a four rounds as ever opened 9 heavyweight title contest. Grim and alert, the Boston sailor jabbed Schmeling's face with lefts, hooked his head, crossed his right. He swept the German before him, landing at will, taking but one solid right hand to the head in the four rounds.
 But Scnmeling won on foul and tonight, in the new Madison Square bowl on Long Island, he meets again the Sharkey who de- spises him, believes that he can mash that face again. Sharkey is two years older, shading 30, and five pounds heavier, adding weight to his wallop. Apparently he is as fast and clever as he ever was.
 Schmeling, for two years, has been perfecting a defense against the wallops that swelled his nose and eyes out of shape. He is dead ly calm, a steady, punishing punch CT. Young Stribling could not hit him solidly He believes Sharkey never will again.
 But the mental edge is all with the challenger. Sharkey still rag es at the injustice of losing a fight to man who showed nothing but ability to stand up under a beat ing. In that mental state he is 8 tremendous fighter. One or the other will need heavy applications of arnica tomorrow morning.
