Big Fight
 Coming Up
 On Nov. 20
McGraw, MlCdnn Sehed- uIed 10 Go IS Rounds
 in Match at Sitka

II previous evcn.s nave anything to do with what may happen ,,1 the future. then the forthcoming "Cal' McGraw-Billy McCann AL aska welterweight boxing match scheduled for the historic city of Sitka, November 20 should be the fisticuff highlight of the season.
 It was several years ago that fast four-round draw, when both men were in the early stages of their fighting careers, but it was a fight that had Seattle boxing fans talking to themselves for many day later.
 Newspaper reports, following that light, said it was the most evenly matched scrap in some time, and the widest toe-to-toe fighting ever seen in the Civic auditorium in Seattle.
 Now, many years later, McCarn and McGraw will again stand to- to-toe and match blow for blow. But this time McGraw is attempt ing to wrest the welterweight title from the brow of hard punching

that may be it is also true that hu- man beings all have their weakness es and that even those not blessed with common sense are still en- titled to the protection of the law
 Upon presenting this matter tt the city police and to the U. s. Mar shal I have been told that to stop the poker games I should swear out complaints against the operators personally. My reasoning, however
 that since we have officers paid for that very purpose who can see the games operate without han drance why can't they present the evidence just as well as can. Such procedure would be only common where the law violation is open.
 The games are outside the law and they are against the better in- terestsf of the community so why should they be allowed to operate?"

McCann.
 Reports from Sitka, eminating from fight promoter Boob" R. R. Jones, say that the town is buszing with comment on who will come out on top, and considerable money is floating around on Mo- Graw.
 Boob" says the scrap is natu- ral, and that both men are the aggressive type of fighter, and they even look alike. He says McGraw Is the type of leather pusher that goes after 'em, and all Juneau fans know that McCann won't back up, so something is going to give.
 The battle is scheduled for l5 rounds, but there is plenty of money that says it won't last that long. Fans have qucried modest Billy McCann many times recently on what he plans to do to McGraw, but Billy says nothing or evades the query. It is noticeable however, that he sets his jaw when put on the spot. He did to today: I'll be in there fighting all the way"
 The fight card is supported by a classy array of prelim battles, and is expected to draw one cf the largest crowds in the history of fighting in Sitka.

 Real Fight

NEW YORK, Nov. 2.-Ken Over lin, playboy and ex-sailor from Virginia, came up off the floor last night, surviving enough fistic bombs to blow him apart, to, re- tain his middleweight champion ship by outpointing Steven Belloise in 15 wild rounds and getting the decision
 Oyerlin was floored in the sixth round by right smash and was on the verge of knockout in the last two minutes of that round but he came back to administer d classic boxing lesson to win like a real champion. q4
 The fight had the crowd of more than 13,000 fight fans on their feet time and time again, some booing, some cheering at the finish.
 The gate was more than $29,000.
 Overlin weighed 158 pounds and Belloise 1858 pounds.

COUNCIL ASKED
 T0pURGE CARD / GAMES IN CITY
Complaint of Harvey Fry Is Referred by Mayor 10
 Police Committee

A complaint against alleged pub lie gambling" in Juneau was made last night to the Juneau City Council by Harvey Fry by letter Harry l. Lucas to the Police com mittee.
 The matter was referred by. Mayor Harry I. Lucas and in person.
 Fry's letter follows:
 Tt is my wish as citizen of Ju- neau to submit to yourselves an opinion regarding the local public gambling situation
 Might l say that gambling is something to which I am not op- posed as a matter of principle. How ever, if thing is presented to the public as game when instead of game it is a racket, then it is some- thing to which I am most heartily opposed.
 Called Racket
 Poker as it is played in Ju- neau's public card rooms, is racket there can be no denying that. The sucker in these games cannot win and indeed he is not supposed to. Many a Juneau wage earner has for feited not one of his pay checks. but many of them to the profes- sional gamblers who operate and promote the games. If that is the result that is desired-rather than that mans income be used to meet his honest obligations and to be laid aside for rainy day-then no change can be asked for in the setup whatsoever.
 Tn my opinion, the literal en- forcement of the gambling laws so as to prohibit gambling entirely would be as undesirable as it would be difficult. However, when a gam ble has become a racket and espec- ially one of such proportions as is in this instance the case, then it it time for the police to enforce the law
 "A view, and perhaps sensible one. is that man who has no more common sense than to be sucker for the poker racket should lose his money and that no more need be said about it. True as

absolutely reliable. But no report
about the maneuvering of presi-
Dental candidate or his managers is
to be accepted at par. The very
essence Of any campaign for NOM
lnation is that friendly feelings be
engendered so far as possible with
all the opposing groups, including
even the rival candidates them
selves, if possible.
The point is that the time comes in
every hard-fought convention, such
as the Democrats had in Baltimore
in 1912, in San Francisco in 1920,
In New York in 1924, and even in
Chicago, in 1882. when certain COM
promises must be made. It often
happens that minority candidate,
who never had an earthly hope of
success, will be able to settle the
final result in one of those smoke
filed room conferences. In other
instances the Ieutenants OF a candi-
date may decide to throw their sup
port elsewhere.
Naturally, new promises are the
most important factor in reaching
decisions at such times, but it does
happen that Il certain enmities have
been created during the pre-coven-
ton campaign, these are pretty
nearly as important

They Nominated Their Man
But Couldn't Elect Him

But both the c. /. o. and the A
r. of L., though it may be admitted
that they had nominated candi-
date for governor of Ohio, were not
able to elect him, once nominated
Actually John w. Bricker was elect
ed governor in the ensuing election.
Curiously enough the same sort of
thing happened in Oregon, where the
G. |. o., the A. F. of L. and Harold
L. lckes all ganged up against the
democratic governors renomina-
ton, and beat him. AT any rate he
was beaten. But in the ensuing cleo
ton Republican won.
The prize case cited by labor lead
ers as to winning an election goes
all the way back to 1922, when
Democratic Sen. Atlee Pomerene of
Ohio wss defeated after serving IL
years. Pomerene was certainly de-
feated, but 1t so happens that the
drys were bitterly against him in
the same election. As a matter of
fact the Anti-Saloon league, then at
the height of its power, arranged to
have sermons preached against
Pomerene in most OF the Protestant
churches on the Sunday before cleo
ton.
AS the state had voted, just two
yeara before that election, for the
most obnoxious search and seizure
dry enforcement act in the country |
the Crabbe act--by ESQ, 1000, il |
might be suspected that perhaps the
drys had more to do with beating
Pomerene than the labor leaders.
