Mr.. Tunney Alias Daddykins

A MONG the Jewish guests who came to indicate
that the diplomatic misunderstanding had
been cleared up with honor on both sides and Of
tense to neither was Mr.. Max Baer, the heavy
weight champion of the world and the incident was
closed out washed down the hatch that after
noon under the social auspices of a baby who will
be born soon, as Mr. Dempsey says any day now.
Also among the guests at the Dempseys baby
to-bes shower was Mr.. Gene Tunney, and it was a
strange thing to see the pair of them sitting at a
table offering polite toasts back and forth Dempsey
to Mr.. Tunney's new baby and Tunney to the
Dempsey'S baby-to-be, and hear Tunney, in the
role of Daddykins, telling Dempsey what to do in
case OF an outbreak Of the yells at night.
They were not strangers, these two but most OF
those present were unable to forget old impress
sion of Tunney punching Dempseys face to a SAN
gulnary ruin on rainy night in Philadelphia and
OF Dempsey fogging Tunney's chin another night in
Chicago until Tunney sank down with a CHASTITY
expression of horror his face.
For years thousands Of citizens had taken sides
as between them and hated the opposing side Of
the rivalry and the principals had thrown
them down and were raising glass to one an
other and talking about babies.

1884, making a new high intake
figure of 20,851. The daily average
population however, did not show
a corresponding increase, being SOS,

81 to 30, 1922 from 81 70 40, 4,500

'oner per day was reported as 23.3

HIGH COURT PLEA
DRAFTED BY MOONEY
LITER Asks Supreme Court Permis-
sion to File Writ of Ha.
beas Corpus.

Thomas j. Mooney, now serving a
life sentence in the San Quentin Peni-
tentiary, has prepared a petition ask
ing the Supreme Court for permission
to file a writ of habeas corpus with it.
In 78-page printed petition, coun-
sci for Mooney reviewed at length the
refusal of the Federal District Court
for Northern California last May to
release Mooney on habeas corpus pro-
ceedings.
The trial Judge and other Federal
judges refused to permit counsel for
Mooney to take the case into the Ninth
Circuit Court of Appeals.
The petition advances the same
grounds for asking MONEYS release
as were presented to the Federal Dis
trict Court. These are principally that
Mooney was convicted on perjured evil
dence and that the California prose-
cutting authorities knew the evidence
was perjured.
Mooney was convicted of participat-
ing In Preparedness day bombing In
San Francisco nearly 20 years ago.
