 There were two persons in the din 1 ing room when the Wreck entered
 with the tray. He could make them out with reasonable clearncss as he
 drew nearer to them. One was the girl, Underwood's daughter. If you like colorful blonds, she was just the
 right sort; slim, with delicate pretti-
 ness that belonged to the city. Op-
 poste her sat youth who appeared
 to be a year or so older. He was well set up and rather good looking, even if there was surly set 10 his features. He was drawing things on the tablecloth with the tine Of a fork t. z n.~, ~ a.t '.
 In the living room there was a table, close 10 the dining room door, and on the table was a telephone. Somebody with a heavy voice was using it; the Wreck identified tho voice instantly, IL belonged to the large man who would not share his gasoline. The girl and the youth were listening, and the Wreck, put ting down his tray, listened also. pre- tending to be busy by wiping the soup plates with napkin.
 Well, you've got to get him. said the heavy voice, with note of iras- cible authority. q don't care if you have 10 try every place in the county. He ought to leave word where he goes. This is Underwood talking. What? Yes, certainly. Oh, you un- derstand now, do you? Well, you get him. Leave word every place you try that he's 10 call me. He knows who it is. And you tell him it's important, see Tell him it's the most important job he ever had. I don't call people up for nothing. Get busy"
 There was the snap of receiver replaced and the creaking of a chair.
 Haven't they located him yet. father?" called the girl.
 NO; and I don't believe they're half trying" Underwood was enter ing the dining room. First they thought he was over at Fisher. Now they think he's gone back to the county seat. I don't care where he Is. I want him."
 The owner of the ranch seated him. self at the end Of the table. The Wreck observed that he lowered him | self into his chair with slight stiff | ness Of movement. It pleased him ! 10 think that he knew the cause. 1 The mudguard of the f1ivver showed | ! tell-tale warp. where it had nudged | him violently. There was no mistak- | ing Underwood. even without the aid | of spectacles. The Wreck had seen | him in tine white glare of road lights, | toiling desperately at crank, and the | heavily iowled face was forever marked in his memory.

BOXING TRYOUTS HERE ON MONDAY Several Promising Boys Are Out For Olympic
 Trip Places

The SoutheAstern A. A. U. Olympic boxing tryouts, which will be held at the Birmingham Athletic club next Monday night, bid fair to. give those interested in boxing a series; of bouts that will be we'll remembered.
 The boys who win out in these try outs will SD to Baltimore to take their stand against the winners from ali other sections of the U. S. A. and fight 1t out to see who goes to Paris to uphold the honor of our country.
 Many promising youngsters will show their wares in the various classes Mon- day night. Dave Evans, who has been stirring up the pep in the local boys, has some good boys rounding into shape for the big bout of the season for these boys, as a trip to Baltimore and the probability of one to Paris means more to the youngsters with fighting ambitions than anything that could be put up.
 One or two of the preliminary bouts of Monday night were put on by the boys who will so into the ring Monday night for Olympic honors. Two of the bRttlers displayed very wicked swings, although they did not seem to be well developed in the science of the game,
 'Boilermaker'' Kelly, who took the number of the Canadian boy who ven- tured into the ring with him, certainly had plenty of the old muscle behind his wallops, and the Canuck did well to stay into the second round with him.
 Big Boy Crockett, although young ster and with little experience, has the build to make a real fighter and showed plenty of nerve. Given a It, tie rounding off he may show local fans something worth while.
