BRINGING UP FATHER THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, THURSDAY, FEB. 27 DADDY-WHY DON'T “OuU WEAR THOSE DARK - CLASSES AND REST YOUR EYES-YOU KNOW THE DOCTOR TOL D YOU TO WEAR THEM- WILL RACE HIS ROYAL STABLES LONDON, Feb. 27.—Gratification is expressed in racing circles at the announcement King Edward VIII intends to maintain the royal rac- ing stables and the Sandringham stud Dur the coming season the King's horses will be leased to Lord Derby and run under his colors. Next year they will be run in the King's name and colors. Lord Derby, in a statement said: “The King confirmed an arrange- ment previously come to between General Tomkinson and myself whereby 1 lease the late King's horses now in the possession of his present majesty. The procedure t will be adopted is precisely the me when I leased his late ma- J horses when he succeeded King Edward. They will remain at Egerton Lodge under Jarvis and they will be managed by Brizadier- General Tomkinson, they will be kept entirely apart from my own stable and will run quite separ- ately.” Lord Derby added that the King gave him permission to state he has every intention of continuing the royal connection with the turf both as regards his racing stable and as regards the stud. “Both will be subject to such alterations as his majesty may, after consid- ation, find necessary and advis- able, but the connection which hds lasted now through so many gen- erations in the royal family will be effectively maintained.” The late King George had only a comparatively few successes Wwith his racers but exercised consider- able influence in the breeding side through his interest. There are 21 of the King’s horses in training at Egerton House, New- market, and a collection of valuable brood mares at the royal stud, San- dringham. SPORT SLANTS Have you a hitle “white hope’ in your home? Practically everyone has onz these days. And uniess you want to find yourself completely out of the swim, get busy and rustle up a young husky with a burning ambition to put an end to the Joe Louis menace once and for all. There's a pot of gold at the end of the fistic rain- pow—if you can locate it The newest fad of digging up a “white hope” has not yet reached the state of hysteria a similar crusade in Jack Johnson's heyday inspired but it has, nevertheless, aroused more than a fair share of interest. They Want to Eat! The tremendous response Jack Dempsey received for his nation- | wide heavyweight tournament shows which way the wind is blowing. The former heavyweight champion was snowed under with requests for chances to enroll under his banner.

PION up a “white hope” who may some day battle it out with Jack’s can- didate for the right to “eliminate” Joe Louis.

Jimmie Bronson, Gene Tunney's chief second in his battles with Dempsey, is drilling a young heavy- weight—Abe Simon—for a syndi- cate. He has been working on the youngster for a year and still isn't certain that he has a real pros- pect. Jimmy feels that the syndi- cate, which is incorporated under the name of White Hope, Inc., can afford to string along and pay Simon’s board bill a while long until he finds out one way or other.

The young fellow is 21, stands six feet two and scales an even 200. He had the benefit of Spider Roach’s coaching before he had a fling at the ama- teurs. Carlin abandoned his original plans to have Nova remain an amateur until after the Olympic games, deciding the lad was about ready to step out and continue his fistic education ag the bro fighters. ‘. - SET TENNIS TOURNEY NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 27.—The Southeastern Conference Tennis Tournament will be held at Tulane University May 7, 8 and 9. - NEW TELEPHONE DIRLCIORY Now in the process of compila- tion.

FIRST! the pleas, there are plenty of can-| . didates who have unlimited faith, in the old Manassa Mauler’s ability to transform them into all-conquer- ing fighters in a few easy (and painless) lessons. Others indicated that Dempsey’s connection with the restaurant business (therefore in- suring them of three square meals a day) would weigh heavily in their decisicns to leave happy homes to join the white crusade. Others were simply tired of the uneventful life truck driver leads. The first round of the Dempsey tournament held in New York re- cently failed to uncover any likely looking prospects. A couple of the lads did well enough, but the ma- jority did a pretty good job of elim- inating themselves. It is safe to bet that the episode was followed by a “back - to - the - trucking - job™ movement. Dempsey himself is by no means discouraged over the failure to turn up a potential champion at a the first showing. He hardly ex-|g pected to do that. His idea is that it will take some time to find the right man, but that he will have a world of fun to compensate him for his efforts in the meantime. Wilson Has “Hope” Dempsey’s old friend, and one- time trainer, Gus Wilson, has dug Eleancr Holm Jarrett, Olympic champion in 1932 and regarded as America’s best bet in the women’s backstroke swim, opened train- ing at Los Angeles for the 1936 Olympics. She took time out to pose on the pool's springboard.

A special ski bus will leave the Channel Bus Depot at 9:30 o'clock Sunday morning, with accommoda- tions for about 25 skiers and their equipment. The bus will leave the trail for the return trip to Juneau at 4:15 o'clock in the afternoon, and those wishing transportation on it may telephone Walter Bacon at the bus depot.

WIMBLEDON SELLOUT LONDON, Feb. 27.—Nearly $60,000 will be returned to unsuccesful ap- plicants for center court seats at the 1936 Wimbledon lawn tennis championships.

It s mounted by Jonas Brothers, Denver taxidermists, and is an exact reproduction of the animal when it was alive, as Colo- man Jonas, head of the firm, was a member of the Allen party guided by Mr. Madsen, and tock minute measurements of the animal before it was skinned. A plaster cast was also taken of the enormous head, an outstanding characteristic of the genuine Kodiak bear.

Kodiak Island is the only place in the woild where these bears are found in the purity of species, Mr. Madsen said, but a similar bear is also found on the western tip of the Alaska Peninsula, directly south west from Kodiak Island. Six live specimens of the genuine Ko- diak bear, taken by Mr. Madsen, are in captivity in the Brookfield Zoological Park near Chicago.

The life of the animals is estimated at 35 to 40 years. Due to the mild climate on Kodiak Island the bears do not go into hiberna- tion until the latter part of De- cember, emerging from their win- ter dens in March or early April. The first to come out are the year- lings and two-year-olds. Later the f.males with small cubs appear, end last the big males start out in scarch of roots and grasses until the salmon run stars up the rivers. The females usually have three cubs, Mr. Madsen stated. The cubs are born in the den during hiberna- tion and are only about nine inches leng when born. Prospects are good for a fine big- game hunting season in the Ko- diak Island region during the com- ing year, Mr. Madsen said.
