A STRANGE PARALLEL

The first punch to hurt Mo Carthy was "jolt to the jaw driving him to the ropes,' but it was solid right to the body, over the heart, that put him down and out.
 Mccarthy settled into a crouch then" the ringside account con tinues. For the moment no one paid much attention, believing il was merely a fighting pose. Mo Carty settled lower and lower and at last dropped to the floor. He gasped for breath and his eyes rolled. Instantly the referee step- ped in between Pelky aIfu the fal- len fighter and began tolling the count. =. The crowd, too, wal ignorant of the tragedy it was wit messing. =. In McCarty's corner Billy McCarney, the man who brought him out, stood with his body halfway through the lower rope, pleading with the fallen mar to get up. Water was splashec on him. ,. l. Then came the real ization that tiiIs was not an ordin- ary knockout. When McCarty stiff. fened out and changed color, Ref cree Edward Smith called for 2 physician. He was soon pronounc. ed dead, but the physicians work. ed over him for more than ar hour"

PUNCH WASN'T FATAL

As in the case of Ernie Schaafs death, it developed after an ex- animation that Pelky's first blow to the heart was not the fatal punch or anything more than a contributing cause to McCartys downfall.
 The autopsy disclosed that death was caused by dislocation of the neck and that the heart was sound. A clot of blod had developed on the brain. The dislocation caused a rupture of the spinal cord and a hemorrhage of the spine.
 At Pelky's trial for manslaugh- ter, which resulted in his acquit- tai, a Dr. Dunlop testified that he thought no blow had been re- ceived by McCarty of sufficient force to cause serious injury but admitted simple accidents some times had serious results, and that there might have been conditions of which physicians knew noth- ing which caused McCarty's death. Another physician testified that McCarty had suffered his injury in a previous fight.

COLLEGE CIRCUIT
 PUTS PENALTY ON LIGHT SCHEDULES

LOS ANGELES, Cal, March g. Instituting a new system of com piling standings, the Southern California college conference will take care of instances where mem bers do not meet all opponents in a given athletic season.
 If one institution refuses to meet another member of the con- ference, although that school is willing, the one refusing will be charged with defeat before the season opens and will be so listed in the standings.
 Should two schools not meet by unanimous choice, each will be charged with a one-half defeat and credited with a one-half vic- tory. The team with the highest percentage total wins the title. Ties will be played off.

SPORT SLAMS H111. s5iIS1

There would no doubt have been fewer skeptics at the ringside of the Camera -Schaaf fight if more of them had been familiar with the story of the tragic bout in which Luther Mccarthy died after being knocked out by Arthur Pel- ky in the first round of match for the white heavyweight cham pionship" at Calgary, Alberta, on May 24, 1913. I have just read the detailed account of it.
 This fight was of great inter- est at the time because it was a climax of efforts to establish a white hope challenger for Jack Johnson, the world champion Mo Carthy was regarded generally as the white champion" He was just 21, native of Nebraska and really fine prospect.
 There were difficulties to be overcome in making the match be- cause of the objections of reform elements, led by ministers. The promoters so far succeeded that before the principals began the main bout, Calgary pastor en- tered the ring to deliver a short talk. He commented OH the ab- sence of brutality in the prelim- inaries and asked the crowd to think they were daily engaged iil a similar fight in life. They were perhaps the last words Mccarthy heard. He was pronounced dead ten minutes later.

HIGH SCHOOL
 SERIES OPENS
 ON WEDNESDAY,
Crimson Bears to Battle Ketchikan or Wrangell
 for Hoop Title

High School basketball, at least so far as local games are con- cerned, will end for the season next week when the Crimson Bears are to engage the winners of the Wrangell- ll-Ketchikan series, which starts in Wrangell tomorrow even- ing, to settle the interscholastic championship of Southeast Alaska. To guard against his players going stale, Coach Elmer Went land has eased up his practice work and is virtually giving the squad a vacation until Monday when hard drilling will be re- sumed. The boys are reported to be in good physical condition George Karabelnikoff having practically re- covered from his injury which kept him out of the second Skag- way game but Coach Wentland's greatest concern now is to see that his charges are mentally fit for the most important series of the season.
 Kayhi Plays Wrangell
 It is understood that Ketchikan and Wrangell will play Friday and Saturday nights, and if third game is necessary it will take place Monday night This will permit the winning team to reach Ju- neau on the Northwestern, due here Tuesday, in time for the op- ening game of the final series to be played Wednesday night.
 The series for the Southern di- vision title is likely to be hard fought judging from comparative scores of the season to date. Wran- gell beat Petersburg three out of four games, and Ketchikan trounc- ed Petersburg two out of three. Two weeks ago Ketchikan lost to Metlakahtla at the latter town 19 to 18, and more recently the Met lakatlans journey to Wrangell to beat the High School 25 to 19.
 Juneau's high school record for the season shows that it has beat en Douglas three out of four games and has defeated Skagway twice.

Cornelius Johnson Cam
 paigning for l936 Games in Berlin

LOS ANGELES, March g. = A two-year campaign which took Cornelius Johnson, 18-year Los Angeles high school negro boy, to fourth place in the high jump of the Tenth Olympiad will now serve as background for the tall lad as he campaigns for the 1886 games in Berlin.
 In 1881 Johnson opened his jumping career by figuring in a three-way tie for the city cham pionsship at feet. Before the year was out he had cleared 6 feet 3l5 inches. A season later he won the title at 6 feet Az inches.
 Wins Enroute From there Johnson went right on to the Olympic games, winning the Southern California and Cal ifornia championships en route. The Pacific Coast regional trials saw him tie with Walter Marty, Fresno college and national A. A.. U. champion, at 6 feet inches. He tied with George Spitz and Bob Van OsdeI in the final trials lat Palo Alto, clearing feet 6% inches.
 In the Olympic Games. Johnson tied with Duncan McNaughton, Canada whom he had previously beaten, Simeon Toribio, Philippines, and Van Osdel, United States, at l6 feet 6 inches, but placed no better than fourth in the jump off.
 Going to s. c. Johnson is senior this year. He hopes to enter the University of Southern California next Fall and be at top form for the games in 1886.
 Besides being a high jumper, Johnson is something of a sprint CT. He has run the quarter mile in 47.8 seconds, but he would ra- ther confine his activities to hoist ing his 6 feet 3 inches of muscle over the bar.

property to take out licenses and

farce and an infringement of public
rights.
Robert Schwalen, president of the
Conservation Club, presented a
resolution asking the legislature to
defeat a proposed bill which would
give As per cent of the fish and
game license fees collected in each
county to the county. Mr..
Schwalen stated that it was one of
the most vicious grab acts he had
ever heard of and urged the club to
adopt resolution protesting
against the adoption of house file
III, on the grounds that only the
state could handle propagation of
game and fish. According to the
bill the county would use the fund
for propagation and the balance
left would revert to county sink
ing fund. The contention is that
only a small part of the money
would be used as intended. Every
sportsman in the state should be
opposed to this bill and get in touch
with his legislators Immediately.
The resolution was adopted by the
club and copies will be sent to both
the representative and senator from
this district.
Carl Fischer and Roy Scott, both
employees at the postoffice were
nominated as candidates for the
presidency of the club, Carl being
reelected by vote of 80 to %.
Roy Scott was elected as first vice
president and S. p. Hansen, Jr. was
chosen to act as second vice presi-
dent. Mr.. Fischer stated that the
next meeting of the club would be
held Thursday evening, February

appoint fewer committees and few

ficers of the association in getting
new ideas and to help insure the
success of the fair. He stated in
effect that the time to offer sug-
gestions was ripe now and not after
the fair was over Despite unfavor-
able conditions an attempt will be
made to pay the entire debt of the
association after the exhibit this
year.
