And Mother Kelley certainly did paste pink
upon Uncle White Wings Tebeau in the second
series. In the opening round at Louisville Kelley
lost thru bad luck and the assistance OF Joe
Ohreen, but this time Tebby and his terriers
were compelled to stand upon their ability as
ba1lplayers. The minions of Michael hit them
