DECISION RATHER ODOROUS
The heayweight crown of the world, after an absence
of-two years in Germany, returned to America Tuesday!
But it was not brought home in the manner we would
have enthused over. At the end of the fifteen round bout
between Max Schmeling and Jack Sharkey, the decision
was given to the American battler even though press
dispatches gave Max the best of the argument. A re-scan
ning of the rounds fail to assure us Sharkey piled up more
points that Schmeling.
Two judges decided in favor of Jack; the referee was
for Max; the ringsiders thought the German had won by
a mile. But not so. When the verdict was announced the
great crowd of 75,000 fans let loose a bedlam of catcalls
and booes.
Naturally we desired to see the title return to Amer
ica but we wanted it won cleanly, without any question of
a doubt. Sharkey’s alleged victory is debatable. We admit,
we are biased in our viewpoint because we never have
cared for Sharkey’s style and our fondest hope is* that
another “white-hope” will spring up and tear his “can”off.
Smiles are altogether too scarce, and Mr. Grant Hin
kle, Secretary for the State of Washington, should be re
membered kindly for lightening a serious article on leg
islation by referring to the boy who wanted to know how
people stuck on the earth before the law of gravitation
passed.
The depression appears to have even affected the
weather this summer.
The animal-like actions of children are said by a
scientist to indicate that man had a pre-human ancestor.
If the conduct of many grown-ups is taken into consid
eration also, that ancestor must have been an ass and not
an ape.
Down at Russian river the trout are so big they |
have to be shot in order to land them safely.
The Prince of Wales deserts St. James palace because
"the ghoat walks there, while many Americans are de
serting it because the ghost no longer walks.
Sewardites now know at first hand what this new
manufacturers tax is which the consumer pays. Gas has
gone up a cent, oil four cents and tires 15 cents.
Now if the Treasury can only collect 10 per cent
tax on safety deposit boxes, it can forget the remainder
of the schedule.
An Alaskan shoemaker has taken his fourth wife.
Here’s hoping he sticks to his last.
That decision in the heavyweight champion battle is
.still smelling.

mm OF JULY CHEEK
REGION IDEAL FINDING
BODY OF CIMM
Further recognizance in search
of the cinnabar (quicksilver) ledge
at the head of Fourth of July creek
failed to locate the ledge of float
found at the mouth of the inacces
sible canyon and serves to confirm!
belief that somewhere in the high
er reaches, now covered with snow,
the cinnabar ledge will be found.
Geologically the region is ideal
for cinnabar, consisting of green
stone, graywacke, indurated and
argillaceous slates and serpentine,
the latter of which predominates
and evidently overlays plutonic
rocks, but which are not revealed.
The entire mass tilts eastward and
upward, and it is only where in
trusions in the stratified rocks
have uptilted or broken them that
the vein material may be found.
Those who contemplate further
prospecting will be compelled to
take a course up the hills north of
the creek, pass the upper reaches
of the glacier and follow the ridge
southward. Or it may be more ac
cessible via Day’s Harbor on the
east of the peninsular.
BETTER LATE THAN NEVER
The Gateway staff is one re
porter short today—the infamous
police reporter—because he over
looked a wedding Saturday in the
Commissioner’s court. The couple
united in wedlock were Miss Bue
lah Dryden and Mr. Edward E.
Nightingale, the latter being the
the popular artist heard on KFQD
programs. Mrs. F. Lindsay and Mr.
C. P. Gilliland attended the blush
ing young couple.
