ante ell tempo que junto a la puer-
a del Estadio estuve, esperanto que
.legasen el champion Y su comitiva.
Pasan los tranvias en- una Y otra di-
recci0n y los pasajeros, sabedores de
que Johnson estaba en- la ciudad, Sc
ponian de pie, disminuia algo la We
locidad del caro-, concentrandose to-
las las miradas en- ell interior del am
plio a~nfiteatro, porque todos, desde
FL motorista ahajo-o arriba, como
4uereis-trataban de %sorprender un
atisbo siquiera del champion en- ira
je de faena, es decir, sin traje alguno.
Y esa ansiosa curiosidad mas la atri-
buyo a la natural inclination a la "bo-
tella" que siente toda La humanidad-
muchos de los observadores eran ex-
tranjeros-que al deseo de saber CO.
mo es y a quien Sc parece un hon.
bre famoso. Ell prurito de yer, gra-
tuitamente, sin ~esfuerZo alguno, CO.
mo no Sc quiera dignificar con tai.
calificativo al hecho de volver la ca
beza, a un hombre que tiene dos "a
sas en- Paris y viaja como un rey con
10 que lie produce ell ansia de las null
titudes por Observable, es, a mi juicio,
todo un poema psicol6gico.
