GENTLEMAN GENE ,
Tunney speaking! No, not a fish a pugilist. Gene
Tunney, who's going to fight Dehipsey. And what does
he say?
This, if the lady interviewer writes truth :
"There is something in me that responds to the great,'
wind-swept spaces. I think I'm (just a little child of
nature.
"Books? Why I like Emerson, and I simply adore
poetry. I've just finished this Persion poem, 'The Rub
aiyat' Ah, there's a philosophy for you! But that man
was a sad materialist. I spend most of my leisure time
reading old church history.
"As for music, I just can't get enough of opera.
"Now, why should you appear surprised? There's no
reason in the world why a pugilist shouldn't be a gentle
man and a scholar, is there?"
Positively none. True- it isn't often done. But maybe
this young fellow can show the world something.
Come to think of it, gentlemanliness isn't at all un
heard of in the pugilistic game. There's "Gentleman
Jim" Corbett, you know. He's due to have a worthy
successor, provided "Gentleman Gene" has the punch to
put over his gentility and erudition.
Yet somehow it's hard to associate culture with upper
cuts. People have an instinctive feeling that book-learning
interferes with a stiff punch. And there was that
French pugilist, you know such a gentleman and every
thing! What was his name? Well, that's just the point
what WAS his name?
But maybe it isn't really true of Gene. Maybe he
was. just spoofing the lady reporter.
THE SMOKE SCREEN
Today, in Locarno, Switzerland, a peace pact was
signed by representatives of practically every Euro
pean nation "in a spirit of optimism which was hailed
as auguring well for an era of peace throughout Europe."
It sounds well and means nothing, for back of the
platitudes uttered at the conference there remains the
cold unescapabie fact that practically every European
nation today is arming for war at a speed greater than
even before the World War a preparation which is
costing so much that these same nations profess inability
to pay their debts to the United States.
Today's gathering will be termed by some a "peace
victory" and by others a "smoke screen." Take your
choice.

MEDFORD. Ore. Dec 1. Thirty
five law enforcement officers from
southern Oregon and northern Cal
ifornia gathered at a banquet here
last night and pledged themselves
to closer cooperation In an effort to
reduce crime and increase the ob
servance of law.
Circuit Judge 6. M. Thomas u
as toastmastcr and sounded the key
note of the meeting in stressing the
importance of closer cooperation be
tween law enforcement officers or'
the various districts r:i tills part of
the coast.
He was followed by State Game
Warden Avcrill who laid empbas)a
on the importance of law observance,
declaring the most important work
in his department is the education
of the sportsmen to realize that law
observance, like charity, begins at
home.
Mr. Avcrill declared fish and game,
are responsible for eighty per cent
of the tourist travel tothis state, and
predicted that within a short time
many Oregon streams will be reserv
ed for game fishing- only.
One of the important problems in
the state gamo department said Dep
uty Game Warden F. MT Drown, is
securing the payment of flr.es in lo
cal justice courts. A total o'f $17,
000 in unpaid fines are still on the
books in this state, he declared.
The importance of securing ample
evidence well substantiated was
Btressed by Deputy Sheriff Fringes
of Siskiyou county. California. While

A ntutid In favor or pcruilnlng
dancing in the Baltm high school
building was taken by Max O. Uu
rcn, former member of the Hulom
school board, In an Interview yes
terday afternoon.
"In tupprtttlns societies In Hie
high school Ihe school board has
taken away what organised social
lltt Hie students had," snld Mr.
Giiren, "without furnishing any
thing at all' by way of substitution.
"Mnny of these Students are not
able to give parties at their homes.
Their homes are not organised so
that they ran. Many of them live
In amull bouses, with a larg" num
ber of children, and any social life
that they get will necessarily have
lo be outside the home. if they
don't gut It In the school building,
they will have to go to public
dances.

"If dunces are given In high

ren to dance. And In cane parents
do pol want their children lo dftnoa,
Unite can be no more difficulty in
keeping them from a school dance
than from a public dance.
"If the dances of the school
could be managed us well in the

but I hat they would bo a fine thing.
