Billy Conn Whips krieger Handi|y

NEW YORK - Billy Conn is
ready for bigger and better things
today and the light-heavyweights
who think they are going places
might as well get ready to duck
the best left hand in the fight
business.
Billy, handsome young Irishman
from Pittsburgh, is too big. too
smart and too tough to fight the
middleweights any longer. There
are two claimants to the 100
pound title and Billy has licked
both of them twice. Now he has
his guns trained on the IFS
Founders.
Conn. who IL growing fast
and now weighs more than
10. fought his last fight
against a middIeweight last
night when he smacked Soliy
kreiger around for IL rounds

Cammarano Brothers won their

thanks to some brilliant pitching
by George Marshall. Marshall

Marshall was looking the other

The Dairymen connected for
their lone tally in the third on a

Goldsmith kept the Cams away

two hits. a sacrifice and an error
paved the way for three runs.

DREAD SOCIAL DISEASE
ORIGINATED IN HAITI

Dr.. Victor Robinson in the British
Journal of Dermatology and Syph-
Ills presents an array of facts which
seem to verify the validity of the
American origin of syphilis. So far
not a single case of this malady has
been produced in pre-Columbian
Europe. 1t is significant that within
a year of the return of Columbus
from the Island of Haiti syphilis had
spread from Spain to Italy and
France.
Captain Gonzalo Fernandez 0viedo
y Valdes, a Spaniard who lived in
Haiti, evidently possessed a streak
of humor. He says: MANY times in
Italy did I laugh, hearing the
Italians say the French disease, and
the French calling it the disease of
Naples; and in truth both would
have hit it right if they had called
it the disease from the Indies"
There was at least one humani-
tartan among the Spanish explorers
under Christopher Columbus His
name was Las Casas. This man de-
voted most of his life to the welfare
of the Indians and was known as
the Apostle of the Indies. Las Casas
agrees with Oyiedo in stating that
the natives OF Haiti gave syphilis
to the white race. Both say that the
natives treated it successfully with
guaiacum.
The Spanish surgeon Ruiz DiaX
de Isla with 40 years experience in
the treatment of syphilis, called it
the Serpentine disease. He had OBJ
served over 10000 cases; de Isla

0ORDoVA COMPANY STARTS
LOGGING AND MILL OPERATION

G0RD0NA - George Roberts, To-
cal tie and timber contractor, was
high bidder for his company for
Prince William Sound timber in a
parcel of timber land at Irish Cove
in Fidalgo Bay. which according to
forest cruisers, contains nearly I'VE
million feet of saw timber and ap-
proXimately four thousand pieces Of
piliug
The company viii at once start an
extensive logging and milling oper-
alton, the first step in which is al
ready being got under way-that
of moving the camp from its present
location in Simpson bay TO the new
site in Fidalgo.
a contract was recently eonsum-
mated with Col Ohlson OF the Alaska
Railroad in which that road agrees
to purchase from Roberts $4,000 TO
$4,000 sawed hemlock ties annually
The logging and saving of these ties
VIII provide the larger part OF the
production volume of the company
The company has, however, add
tional contracts for trap piling. tim
bers and lumber, which give it an
other sizeable outlet Tor lis pro
ducts.
1t is estimated that the annual
output Of this expanded organization
will exceed 100000
Mr.. Roberts will be leaving On
the next southbound boat for Seat
tie, where he will make purchase Of
a new American No + sawmilL This
unit IS powered with a l25-horse-
power diesel engine and has a capac-
Iity fer approximately 10000 board
/ feet OF lumber per day. II will rep
resent an investment of $1,000 TO
$4,000. The size OF the mil is
sufficient TO handle logs up to four
feet in diameter, of which. Mr. Rob
erts says. there is a considerable
quantity in the Fidalgo area.
The production of the mill Will
be concentrated on ties and every
possible foot OF timber will be cut
into that product. There is neces-
sarily a certain amount OF lumber
boards that must be cut eff a log
in the squaring up process and this
product incident to the manufac-
ture of the ties will be carefully
conserved for lumber products
The company itself Will be able 10
use a considerable quantity OF ium-
Der in the construction Of its build
ings It's outlet for trap lumber also
will take care OF considerable
amount OF this production. There is
a fair sprinkling OF spruce timber IN
the area, which also will be convert
ed largely into lumber products.

PRINCESS LINE PURSER
DIES IN VANCOUVER

Wrangell citizens who in their
travels on Canadian Pacific liners in
