Ever See A Climbing Lish?
Read About It, Save $10,000
By CLAIDINE MlLLINAl'X
A climbing fish, a $10,000 bet, and
a visit to Lexington by Carveth

Wells account for an unusual signature recently discovered in the
old guest book of the University
Faculty club.
The signature, consisting of a
name accompanied by an elaborate
picture of a palm tree with a fish
clinging to the trunk, was placed
there by Carveth Wells, authority
on international affairs, when he
was the luncheon guest of Prof. L.
L. Dantzler, head of the English
department, about eight years ago.
It was brought to light 'during
Wells' visit to Lexington Thursday
under the auspices of the Executives' club.
Dantzler explained the name and
its accompanying illustration by relating the following story;...
The Story, At Last
Some years ago. Wells wrote a
book entitled "Six Years in the
Malay Jungle." Therein he told of
seeing a jungle fish swim to shore,
hobble across the sand, and climb
a palm tree. "Big Bill" Thompson,
who was mayor of Chicago, refused
to believe that such a thing was
possible. He was so certain of his
xmvictions that he offered to give
Wells $10,000 if the story could be
verified.
Malay Bound
The only way to determine the
ruth of the tale was to go to the
Malay jungle and see if this versatile fish could be located. "Big
Bill" chartered a ship and sailed
for the Malay country. Thompson
and his companions did see the accomplished fish, so Thompson was
considerably poorer because of the
doubting streak in his nature.
This tale was related to Dantzler
by Wells on that day eight years
ago when they lunched together at
the Faculty club. When he was
asked to sign the guest book, he
placed after his name a drawing of
the fish that had brought him such
good fortune.
