PAGE SIX GENE TUNNEY 1S AN ABLE MANAGER The Heavpweight Champion Conducts Own Ring Af- fairs Succesfully New York, April 11.--The fistic events of the past few days have furnished convincing evidence that Gene Tunney mot only is manag- ing his own affairs but doing pretty well at it for a young fellow whose chief aim in life not long ago seemed to be the mastery of seven- syllable words, says the Associated im; ess. Gene still has command of an extensive and often effective vo- cabulary. But his latest wire to the Boxing Commission, in addition ta being noteworthy as a diplo- matic rejoinder, contains no words in excess of five syllables and only two of those. It proves that the simple language can be, and often is, more effective and forceful than complicated phraseology. "While I have received no official communication from the New York State Boxing Commission--" A gesture of reproof in that line, ob- viously, Further on: "The Commission knows me well enough to know IT have never selected my opponent but have al- ways left that detail to the promo- --------EE---- This Toni THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY. APRIL 11, 1928 ter." A gentle touch of irony here, perhaps. There was a time not so long ago when Gene Tunmney, 'hen only a fair to middlin', lMght heavy- weight, needed a manager and soem good ring advice if he was to get anywhere. The veteran Billy Gibson filled both Fequire- ments, steered Tunney into the American light heavyweight title and paved the way for the Dempsey match in 1926. that brought Tun- ney to the peak. Gene wasn't champion of the world more than a few days. how- ever, before he decided to handle his own affairs. He has done so ever since. There have been some to accuse him of ingratitude, but others who see not only that the | situation has changed but that Tun- ney possesses the business abilily to make the most of his ring car- eer. Gibson, even if his voice in the champion's business is no longer above a whisper, at least shares financially in Gene's suc- cess. Tunneey got the title but little else at Philadelphia in 1926. He had to go on a vaudeville tour to make some money. He has made a pretty fair job since then of managing his own affairs. He col- lected close to a million at Chicago and has had his own way, it ap- pears, in selecting Heeney as well as a July date for his first and perhaps only 1928 engagement. killed near by falling Carl Clouse New Lexington, chimney. was Ohio, Does More Than Bring Back Health A safe, powerful alterative is needed regularly by every person who has any manifestation of blood disorder.

The man in the wheel chair look- ed steadily into his visitor's eyes. "I know that you are not personal- ly responsible for the death of the workman, Captain Martin." Melver sprang to his feet... He fairly gasped as the flood of ques- tions raised by the Interpreter's words swept over him. "You--you know who killed Charlie Martin?" he demanded at last. The old basket maker did not answer. "If you kmow," cried Meclver, "why in God's name do you not tell the people? Surely, sir, you are not ignorant of the danger thai threatens this community. The death of this union man has given Vodell just the opportunity he dare to shield the guilty man i whoever he is--you will" "Peace, McIver! This community will not be plunged into the hor- vors of a class war such as you rightly fear. There are yet enough sane and loyal American citizens in Millsburgh to extinguish the fire that you and Jake Vodell have started." When Jake Vodell came to the Interpreter's hut shortly after Me- Tver had left, he was clearly in a state of mervous excitement. "Well," he said, shortly, "I am here--what do you want--why did you send for me?" The Interpreter spoke deliberate- ty with his eyes fixed upon the dark face of the agitator. "Vodell, I have told you twice that your cam- palgn In Millsburgh was a failure, , ers and all , eating out of my hand, To me they TRU BLOOD Ci Your coming to this community was a mistake, Your refusal to re- cognize the power of the thing that made your defeat certain was 2 mistake.

That is what the Mill men be- lleve." "That is what you want them to believe. It is an old trick, Vodell. You have used it before." The agitator's eyes narrowed under his scowling brows. 'look here," he growled, "I do nwt iiie this talk of yours. Perlaps you had better prove what you charge, God, I will prove it," came the calm answer. Jake Vodell, as he looked dowr upon the seemingly inelpless old man in the wheel chair, was think- ing, "It would be safer if this old basket maker were not permitted 10 speak these things to others-- bis influence, after all, is a thing +» consider." "No, Jake Vodell," said the In terpreter gently, "you won't do it Billy Rand is watching us. If you make a moye to do what ouy are thinking, Billy will kill you." The Interpreter raised his hand snd his silent companion came suickly to stand beside his chair. With a shrug of his shoulders Yodell drew back a few steps to ward the door. "Bah!

With his hands he asked his companion for paper and pencil When Billy brought them he wrote a few words and folding the mes- sage gave it to the big man whe stood waiting. For a few minutes they talked together in their silent way. Then Billy Rand put the Interpreters message carefully in his pocket and hurriedly left the hut. That evening Jake Vodell ad: dressed the largest crowd that had yet assembled at his street rneet- ings. With characteristic elo quence the agitator pletured Cap: tain Charlie as a martyr to the un- | principled schemes of the employer class. "Mclver and his crew are charg: ing the strikers with this erime ir order to set out union brother: against us," he shouted. 'They think that by setting up a division among us they can win, They know that if the working people {stand together, true to their class, loyal to their comrades, they wili rule the world. Why don't the po. lice produce the murderer of Cup- tain Charlie?

Vioz OVER 13313) DON'T SHAKE HANDS BUT BOW AND SMILE Former London Health Man, Expert on Bacteria, Gives Warning of Infection Danger Vancouver, B.C.. April 11.--1t you must greet your friemds cor- dially bow and smile as much as you like and flourish your arms in a gesture of welcome, but don't shake hands. Such is the warning uttered by Dr. H. H. Hill, head of the bac- teriological department of the Uni- versity of British Columbia, form- erly Dean of Public Health in the University of Western Ontario, in London, who claims that approxi. mately one-third of the total of in- fectious diseases in Canada are communicated by the good, old- fashioned hand-shake. Miss Helen H. Mathews, in- structor in the same department, corrorborates the doctor's state- ments, She found bacteria trans- ferred from handshaking in every case with but one or two excep- tions. In ten cases where the sec- ond person shook hands with a third, the germs of infection were transferred in two {instances the fourth person received them, and in one case the fifth person. Leading health authorities, said Dr. Hill, are convinced that typh- oid fever, once thought to be con- tracted only from contaminated water, is passed on by handshak- ing. In facet, he sald, most of the typhoid fever is spread by the prac- tice. Soap and water are not suf- ficient to wash away the germs, he said, except in about 90 per cent of the cases. To play safe one shonld use a disinfectant, "Mussolini has the right idea," said Dr. Hill. "The Italian Dicta- tor has introduced the old Roman salute, which is not only a bheau- tiful thing but sanitary. The Prince of Wales, who has suffered from excessive handshaking on more than one occasion, is another devotee of the non-touch greet- ing The military salute woull not be had for mniversal applica- tion, and the Japanese bow is all right for those not afflicted with stiff backs. Why, even the Eski- mo custom of rubbing noses is better than the handshake. "The danzer of 'aerial infection' Is not very great.
