graphical error. Simply a sample OF
what the new chef is handing out to
the boys who take lunch at the club.
One of the boys met Joe Pensa on
Broadway last night and asked him
why he was not running. Joe said:
Mcclellan did not show up with his
motorcycle tonight and l cannot find
anything else that is fast enough to
pace me-" Art Howard wanted to
pace the fat boy, but Joe said he pre-
ferred somebody who could keep in
sight, If nothing else. In other words,
Art is not in 1t.
angel Face Swaine said yesterday
that he had the reputation of being
the worst handball player in the Los
Angeles Athletic club. Swaine is well
come to the title since he has obtained
it, but some Of the boys were under

gible to that title. However, it is be-
lieved that a match game between the
two would prove that Swaine knew
what he was talking about, to say the
least.
Not the least interested auditor at
the meeting of the Southern California
Rod and Reel club last night was 8. S.
Spier, who, in addition to being an

for the past three weeks.
