Buell., 2. G. A. tourney manager at
BIO Ridgeview-dr, Indianapolis.
TT may have been chivalry on the
l. part of the masculine team. 1t
may have been feminine timidity, or
pride, or both, that silenced the
girls team. In any case, this de-
partment suddenly recalled that no
report had been offered on the out
come of the Butler campus chal-
lenge match and SO decided on a
policy of cross examination.
You remember that trio of
Kappa sorority girls, princesses. so
to speak, in city golfing circles,
found competition practically nil
among their own student sisterhood
and heartily accepted an invitation
to meet a three-man team of the
Butler Independent Association.
ON investigation, I find that the
~ match was played at Speed
way, with the mems association trio
winning out, but the actual score
seems to be matter of Slight dis
agreement.
The girls-Carolin varin, Har-
riett Randall and Lillian Reese
Immediately suggested a rematch.
The b0ys-Edwin Eaton, Paul
Lindeb0rg and James Fick-were
in favor of it. A definite time was
not arranged, but a definite place
was settled when the Kappas
opined, somewhat firmly, that
Willow Brook would be the logical
course.
The B. I. A. three some was in
clined to agree since the Willow
Brook fairwayS are more compact
giving the feminine team a fairer
chance and making for a closer
match. The six of them intend to
get together for an unofficial round
at Willow Brock Monday and an
early date settlement is expected to
result.
Thus approaches the second act
of boy Meets Girl"
A BOUT that score at Speedway
1 A. one camp replies that the
final verdict was to while the
other tells me it was 81a to u. All
agree that Eaton and Lindeborg
each won 3-to-0 victories over
Misses Randall and Reese, the diff
ference existing in the third contest.
Both clean sweep and 215 to u
margin for Flick over Miss Varin are
claimed. At any rate, two extra
holes were needed to decide the
final nine in favor of Senior Flick.
The gentlemen gave handicap al
lowances, of co., e. But who's to
quabble owe. 2 nalf-point?
y
TINE return match probably
Il will be played next week so
that the B. I. A. boys may be
ready for the Butler intra- mural
meet later in the month, in which
they are to compete with six
other fraternity teams.
But the three girls may have
something to say about that, and
there you have 1.-THE eternal tri-

HOW would you like to see four
- of the brightest lights in
golfdom's marquee competing in an
18-hole best-ball match and pre-
senting a shot demonstration?
Such an opportunity will be of
fered in Lafayette this Tuesday
when Lawson Little, Horton
Smith, Jimmy Thompson and
Johnny Lehman unpack their
potent clubs for an exhibition at
the West Lafayette Country Club.
The performance will be open to
the public, and-heres surprising
as we'll as pleasant angles offered
absolutely free of charge. That's on
the authority of Bob Woodwork,
Purdues athletic publicity director.
Program starting time is sched-
uled for 2:45, with the shot demon
Stration first.
The committee in charge is
headed by G. A. Young as chairman,
with such personages as Jack Bixler,
Nal Edward, Guy Mackey, Gordon
Graham, G. H. Robertson and Wood
worth assisting.
Let's see, State Road 81 is the
best route to Lafayette, isn't it?
IF ever a hoie-ln-one tournament
l. is held in this city, Bert Bruder
would prefer that the scene of COM
bat be the twelfth green at Hillcrest.
Others might object because that
particular hole happens to be close
ly joined by "lake," but Mr.. Bru-
der has no fear of the neighboring
hazards after what happened yes
terday.
To come to the point, Mr.. Bru-
der Smacked an ace into the No.
IL cup yesterday, using an eight
iron. But that isn't the whole
story. The acer replayed the
same nine while later and came
mighty near duplicating the deed
on No. IL! His drive trickled so
close to the cup that he was able
to hole out for a deuce. Watch
ing his ball sail the necessary 165
yards on both occasions were Har-
old Smith, V. L. Robinson, Ben
Roberts and Harry Collins.
1t was the first hole-in-one of
the season at Hillcrest, where the
performer plays regularly. If Hill
crest were vetoed as the tourney
site, Mr.. Bruder's second choice
would be Speedway. He sank a
single there year or SO ago.

lived.
Leonard would have whipped
Canzoneri," insists Mr.. O'Rourke.
HE was more finished fighter, and
a shorter puncher. A Nelson Can
zoneri fight would have been a
smuggling match with Nelson the
winner in the end. In match with
Wolgast 1t would have been a mat
ter Of which man got over the first
rocking punch, and think it would
have been Wolgast since he was a
very fast puncher Canzoneri would
have more than held his own with
all the others"
HERE is how Mr.. Johnston lists
i Il his five greatest: % Jack
McAuliffe, 90 Leonard, CD Can
zoneri, "a Cans. go Frank Erne :.
"Canzoneri compares favorably with
most of the lightweights you have
heard about" says Mr.. Johnston. II
don't think he is quite up to the
McAuliffe or Leonard standard but
he is close enough. Cans was never
superman to me. Canzoneri can
beat man to right hand punch
better than any fighter ever looked
at and this alone would have beaten
Cans. Kid Lavigne was fine
lightweight and would have given
Canzoneri a lot of trouble but the
Italian, who rates his pace we'll,
would have nailed him before the
finish"
Mr.. Leonard didn't attempt to rate
the lightweights. Instead he con-
tented himself with the broad state
ment that Canzoneri has everything
a great fighter could possibly have
and. well, doesn't that in it
self make him really great light
weight?" Continuing, he said, II
can't find a flaw in his makeup. He
can hit, he can take it, he's smart,
resourceful, fast and smooth on the
defense. What could any of the cid
timers have had that he lacks?"
Mr.. Leonard did not state whether
he ranks himself with the old timers
or not.
IRON this point ON the returns
it are not so fiattering to the
swarthy buzz saw who ripped Jimmy
McLarnin to pieces in an overtime
weight match at the Garden last
week. Mr.. Dumb Dan Morgan lists
his first five greatest AS follows:
Cd Leonard, CD McAuliffe, CD La
vigrie, % Cans, (5) Nelson. +. :.
Leonard probably would have
knocked Canzoneri OUT says Mr..
Morgan. HE was very strong fell
low. a master in the clinches and a
tremendous puncher. Canzoneri
might have Jared somewhat better
with the other four, but not enough
to win. These fellows would have
diversified him and outreached him.
They were big men,"
Mr.. Harry Lenny is another who
can not see Canzoneri up there with
the first Ave. His ranking: %
Cans, co McAuliffe, CD Erne, (4
Leonard, go Lavigne. Both Cans
and McAuliffe would have smacked
Canzoneri around" says Mr.. Lenny.
I'm a long fight Nelson would have
crushed him. Dial Hawkins would
have knocked him out. Freddie
Welsh and Willie Ritchie would
have whipped him. So would have
Erne and Kid Mcfarland, and
this goes for Packey Mcfarland,
too. About the only old timer
Canzoneri would have had real
good chance against was Wolgast.
You see, Canzoneri is far from a
perfect fighter. He makes bad
moves from time to time and one
bad move was all fighter ever
had a chance to make against these
old sharpshooters. That was part
of their greatness, instantly capital
ling the other fellows mistakes"

WRESTLING BOB SMITH,

WI who managed Erne before he
became famous as the trainer of the
great race horse, Cavalcade, says it
is silly to try to compare Canzoneri
with the old timers. He lists the
Ave greatest this way: Cd Lavigne,
(2) Erne, go Nelson, (4 Cans, (5)
McAuliffe.
THE old timers were an entirely
different breed of cats" insists Mr..
Smith. They we're big. strong fell
lows, welterweights, who trained for
months to melt down to lightweight
size. Because of this rigorous, pun
ishing training they came into the
ring granite-hard, lightning fast and
savage in mind. To suggest that lit
tie fellows like Canzoneri would
have beaten these men is nonsense"

Paul Focus Is Three Weeks Overdue on Trip to
 Iuxican Passage

Paul Focus, fisherman and em- ploye of the Juneau Lumber Mills. IS three weeks overdue on a trip rom Tenakee to Tuxican Passage, on Prince of Wales Island, in his gas boat T-3180.
 Ihls report was made to U. s. Commissioner J. F. Mullen today by F. McDermott, official of the com pany, and L. Johnson, captain of it's boat Driva.
 The Drlva arrived last night in Juneau from Tuxican, where the disappearance of Focus was learned. He left Tenakee February 1 for Ju- neau Lumber's logging camp near the passage, distance of 130 miles. He failed to arrive there by Febru- ary 20, when the Driva sailed for Juneau.
 Focus is reported to be good boat man, and many good harbors are to be found along the route, minimiz- ing the fears for his life.
 A boat was to be sent out today by the Commissioner to search for him. An effort was also made to contact the Coast Guard Cutter Tal- lapoosa to ask them to aid in the case after completion of their duties at Sitka
 The boat Driva arrived at GRO last evening. and, after loading cable and other supplies, was to return to Tuxican Passage late this afternoon
 The camp there was closed until February l. the lumber mill reports, and 20 men are now engaged in fall- ing timber. Five inches of ice on the bay has hampered work there during the past two weeks.

one of the landmarks of Alaskan history, and it's destruction leaves cnly three of the Russian buildings remaining in the Territory, accord ! ing to Father A. P Kashevaroff Curator of the Territorial Museum The two-story structure, built of logs and weather-boarded was 40 by 80 feet, and was built in l840 during the regime of Governor Adolf Karolvich Etolin. During the Russian administra- ton it was used as an accounting house for the Russian American Fur Company, while the upper floor housed d school of navigation for young Russians.
 After the transfer to the United States. the structure became the administrative offices for the Am erican Army, and the quarters of the marine school were converted into Masonic Temple.
 Other Uses
 In 1879 the Presbyterian Mission was established in Sitka, and it's school occupied half of the lower floor, being used for a church on Sundays The Customs Service oc- cupied the other half of the lower floor until the transfer of the capi- tai to Juneau in 1905 With the re- establishment of a Customs Office in Sitka several years ago, that br a n c h of the Government was again housed in the same rooms.
 Transfer Made
 In October, 1883, S2,000 worth of new postal equipment was installed in the building, and it's custodian ship was transferred from the Gus toms Service to the Post Office De- partment.
 The building was repaired several times, according to Father Kashe-
 
 varoff, and the last time a con- crete foundation was put in. After 95 years its logs and general con- structure were found to be as sound as ever.
 Of the original Russian buildings there now remains only that which houses the Sitka Mercantile Com pany, which was once a hospital the Greek Orthodox Church at Sit ka, and the Russian Mission House
 Earlier Fire Threat
 The Curator of the museum re- called that the Customs Building was threatneed by fire in 1882, and that nearly the entire town, in- cluding the crew of the warshir then stationed there, aided in fight ing the flames. An abacus, mementc of the days when the building was that of the old Russian fur com pany, is now in the Territorial Museum.
 Due to the absence of adequate communication facilities with Sitka yesterday, many rumors were hearc in Juneau that large section oi the first capital was ablaze. No information was available to. day as to what arrangements vii be made to find new quarters fol the departments located in the building, or as to whether a new building will be erected.
