has found himself attending more
and more fights in the past year.
The Schmeling-Louis fight, he fig
ures, could easily touch the million
dollar mark in box-ofice take. He
believes it will be the biggest "nat-
uraP' since his second epochal clash
with Jack Dempsey in Soldier field,
Chicago, in 1927, when referee Dave
Barry made himself famous with
the long count of 10 when Gene was
on the floor.
Tunney, who will be 40 in May, is
not much heavier than the day he
retired from the ring as the unde-
feated heavyweight champion of the
world. He runs as much as seven
miles every morning and his set
ting-up exercises at his Stamford,
Conn, home include such items as
so full bends, so rotations from the
hips up, getting down on the floor
and raising himself so times on his
arms.
He is getting rather expert at
squash and may enter one of the
national tournaments. incidentally,
the resentment of fight fans over
his beating Dempsey has cooled in
recent years and every time he is
now introduced at big bout he
gets a fine hand. Time seems to
mellow fight fans.

early exhibition match defeats were
no sign of a slump by routing Mr..
Bromwich and adding the Australi-
an lawn tennis title to his American
and Wimbledon crowns.
So once again, Don Bulge is the
king pin of the tennis world. His
form in the Australian champion
ship matches was reassuring to his
sponsors in this country and indicat-
ed that he can round into top shape
for the Davis cup matches. And it
reinstated him as the best prospect
pro tennis has had since Fred Perry
of England made the 100000 leap
several years ago. Once again he
is a drawing card of the magni-
tude of Bill Tilden.

dressy enough to wear through

is just right to be very fattering.
Furthermore you can make this
dress, Of a rayon print or gay
percale, in a brief afternoon or

Speaking of Sports
Dead Ball May
Help Restore
Base Stealing
BY GEORGE A. BARCLAY

BY GEORGE A. BARCLAY
u ASE stealing may be res
- cued from the limbo of lost
arts as result of the decision
of the National league to rein
troduce a deader ball into the
1888 pennant race. Such a res
cue would revive the days of
tight ball games, of pitchers
battles, frequent sacrifices and
squeeze plays"
Rogers Hornsby, alumnus of five
major league teams and keen
judge of the play in both the Ma
tional and American circuits, be-
ieves that a return of base stealing
would pay dividends in increased
interest among the fans.
''In the old days when Ty Cobb,
Max Carey, Eddie Collins, Clyde
Milan, Jack Miller, George Burns
and that generation of players in the
big leagues, the man who could
steal base was big asset to his

Tunney Optimistic

ENE TUNNEY, who with Jack

two greatest fight gates of all time,
believes that the million-dollar fight
days will come back to the heavy
weight ranks within the next few
years.
The ex-marine, now member of
New York's social 400, who made a
million dollars out of the fight game
and had the good sense to escape
with it, notices a revival of interest
among boxing fans. His observa-

MYTH Winter almost over,
w March billiards to the con-
trary Notwithstanding, you find
yourself cycling the fashion sheets
little more than casually. In
deed you probably already have
your needle threaded, just waiting
for some nice Spring patterns to
make your acquaintance. And
here they are, three quick tricks,
each pleasantly awaiting your
choice, each designed to make
some wardrobe happy. Which do
you prefer?
Fitted Bodice.
Look your Sunday best in this
graceful afternoon frock with it's
snug and softly shirred waistline.
The skirt flares slightly to the
front and emphasizes the slimness
of the silhouette. Note the saddle
shoulder and short, pulled sleeves
"details that are unusually be-
coming and make for distinction.
One of the new widely spaced flow
er patterns in rayon or silk will
make your informal afternoons
and evening double delight, and
the pattern is a particular joy to
work with. So simple, and so
pleasing.
Trim Morning Frock.
Don't be caught around the
house without your best foot for
ward. You needn't be, with this
crisp and fattering morning frock
at your beck and call. Simple
as pie, yet charming fresh and
youthful, this model dispenses
with all fussy details yet achieves
Z an appearance which will see you
through the busiest day. The skirt
flares a bit from neatly fitted
waistline, and the ric-rac trim,
in contrast, adds a note of bright
ness. Just nine pieces including

Claimed Exemptions From Draft

During the Civil war immigrants
who had not become naturalized
filed claims for exemptions from
the drafts. To counterfeit this, pa
triotic organizations made appeals
for volunteers and endeavored to
raise troops among their own peo-
pie. In Cincinnati, Ohio, German
and Irish organizations held meet
ings to denounce aliens trying to es-
cape the draft and to ask their lead
ers to raise troops.

POrtraitist Supreme

Rembrandt, 1606-1669, was a
Dutch miller's son who became the
greatest portraitist in history of
art. He was a huge success at
twenty-one. For years he lavished
great wealth on his family and
friends, and paid extravagant
sums for other artists pictures. One
by one he lost love, riches, family,
prestige. He died alone and forgot
ten in Amsterdam sluns. He loved
to paint himself and friends dressed
in prop" costumes from his stu
dio.

1897 Champs Poor

Last year when the Philadelphia
Athletics led both leagues in base
stealing with 95, only two men-Ben
Chapman and Bill Werber-stole

'Today it is far easier to steal

two-bagger or triple to drive him
in"

greatest base stealers of all time.
Carey, while stealing 81 bases in
1916, was thrown out only twice.
He was master at out-thinking the
pitcher and breaking for second
base successfully. Cobb featured
base running among his other tai
ents and often completely upset the
opposing team by his antics on the
bases.

POPULATION OF
JUNEAU DISTRICT
is NEAR 10000
Industrial Survey Taken by
Chamber Reveals Large
Number Are Employed

After a survey of school popula-
ton, persons gainfully occupied and
a check with 1880 census figures
the Juneau Chamber of Commerce
places the population of Juneau and
immediate vicinity at between 5000
and 10000, according to a report
submitted to the Chamber today at
its weekly luncheon by the COM
mittee, headed by Curtis Shattuck,
which was named to make an in
dustrial survey of this area for the
Alaska Planning Commission.
The growth of Juneau's popu-
lation has been due to a great ex-
tent to the increased employment
of the Alaska Juneau mine and the
growth of Federal and Territorial
personnel the report said. "Di-
rectly or indirectly the bulk of
growth can be traced to these sour
ces. The prosperous business con-
dition created by the heavy payrolls
of the mine and the government Of
fices has attracted others to come
to Juneau. Many of them have re-
manned either in the employment of
others or in businesses conducted by
themselves"
The survey revealed total of
3,164 persons gainfully occupied in
the City of Juneau and school at
tendance of 973.
