LEGION, ASSISTANT
CASHIER

Richmond bankers are terribly
easy to talk to.
When you come frankly to any
Richmond banker, you find that
he's just like any other business
man.
Possibly he's a little more seri-
Gus; trifle more alert. Wouldn t
you be if you were handling other
folks money all day long? Doesn't
it keep you guessing merely to
handle your own?
Multiply your responsibility by
1S,406-then you'll wonder how
that handsome, well-groomed AS
sistant Cashier in the picture
manages to look so cheerful.
His name is Legion.
You'll find young bankers like
this in every bank and trust COM
pany in Richmond. They're sales
men, just as keen to sell you their
bank SERVICE as you are to sell

HERACL SENDS HIS
MAN TO TIE MAT

Wilmington" downed Fred Pilakoff
the Finnish Lion Of Brooklyn. Pila-
kor battled against the superior
strength Of Heracl for 20 minutes and
2s $. conds before Big John succeeded
in executing his body swing that so
dazed the Finn that upon landing on
the mat Heracl had no trouble in pin
ming his shoulders to the canvas for
the required three seconds.
The second fall. while coming much
quicker than the flrst-i9 minutes. iS
seconds-taxed the ability Of Heracl.
The local man was forced 10 extend
himself the limit to win many times
before the end came.
The other bout OF the evening was
between Eddie NOvenis and Johnny
Doyle. Novenis gained the first fall in
5 minutes with a hammer-lock and
crotch hold, and after a sho.t intermis-
sion forced Doyle TO retire with a toe
hold in 6 minutes and 10 seconds. The
fans received a disappointment when
