American beauty was the vogue
just then and Walls ensemble was
unquestionably stunning. The color
heightened her glowing cheeks, and
the bit of mole about her high col

Sybil could have choked her. I'm
all right" she said evenly. Thanks
for your solicitude."
Craig pressed her arm lovingly.
1T thought Sybil looked wonder
fully WELL" he lied loyalty.
CHE felt his eyes on her all
- through dinner, searching, anx-
ious-so kind and good. And she
thought, irrelevantly, of other eyes
mad blue eyes, that devoured her
body and soul. And she wondered,
as she toyed with her salad and
smiled across, at Craig, what had
happened to Richard.
There had been a wireless mes
sage on the boat from Jack Moore,
lacking altogether in detail. "Ey-
erything fine" he had radioed.
"Of all the dumb messages!" sput-
tered Sybil, and showed it to Mabel.
"It doesn't mean a thing"
ooh, yes, it does, and I think, :"
opined Mabel coolly, that Jack is
quite worthy of being trusted"
n II
THAT was the day the redoubt-
l. able Mr.. Moore, fortified by a
few drinks, dropped round to the
Seville for the avowed intention of
telling Richard what he thought of
him.
He delivered himself with scant
forbearance and considerable elo-
quence, saving his finishing touch
for his grand finale.

strength Of his endeavors had made
him hot and moist He smiled with
sardonic satisfaction.
"Sybil and Mabel" he announced,

Richard looked at him blankly.
"Sailed?" ne repeated stupidity.
"Yes-sailed! And you've lost
one damn fine little wife," prodded
Moore savagely.
"You don't mean SYPHILIS really
gomez"
"That's exactly what I mean.
And, what's more" gibed Jack, "She
never wants to see you again"

sprang angrily to his feet. "You

Nonchalantly he fingered the Of

He tipped the soiled pasteboard
contemptuously.

He took out his billfold, and de-

Richard laughed.
Moore, you're an awful fathead,'
he sneered. you don't really think

tightening grimly.
Her beautiful face, like a just
opened flower in the morning sun,
became as Somber as his own.
I'm not going to marry him,
Sandy. Peg got me in a jam over
this beastly engagement. 1 never
said I'd marry Dick in the first
place, but he ran home and told
his parents and Mrs. Talbot phoned
Peg to tell her that the Talbots
could not possibly consent.
peg thought it over for couple
of days without asking me point
blank if I was going to marry the
Talbot heir, then phoned the papers
an announcement.
Poor Peg! I've been an awful
Trial to her since I got home from
Bradley and she figured that

the engagement as legal as mar

"Of course she was pleased at the
idea of being mother-in-law to a

how 1 felt about Dick"
"And how do you feel?" San

peg played the fool handsomely.

concluded flippantly, but her voice
broke on sob.
Gonna take you home-now,
Sandy announced grimly. BEST
way to get nasty job done is to

about killing yourself, kid" he
scolded her, gruffly.
But he offered his hands for her

.HEENEY SAYS He
is TOP HOLE FIT
TO tilt DELANEY

NEW YORK, Feb. 28 R-Tom
Heeney, hurley blacksmith from
New Zealand, hung up his training
gloves today after nine rounds Of
work and declared himself top hole
fit for the 15-round heavyweight
elimination struggle with Jack De-
laney in Madison Square Garden
Thursday night.
The sturdy British subject scaled
195 pounds after boxing four
rounds, shadow boxing two, punch
ing the bag another pair, and skip
ping the rope for three minutes.
The weight indicated Heeney will
have an advantage of at least 20
pounds on the former light-heaVy-
weight champion when they touch
gloves in tussel that may decide
Gene Tunneys next title challenger.
Delaney scaled IT'S ga yesterday.
Heeney took on Phil Mercurio, a
lanky heavyweight, for two rounds,
and absorbed many of the type OF
right-hand emashes to the head that
Delaney has employed SO success
fully in recent battles. The Anzac
champion pounded constantly at
Mercurio's ribs. Heeney finished
the day with fast two-round ses-
sion against Pierre Gandon, French
middleweight.
Heeney appeared in splendid con-
dition, rugged and sturdy enough
to assimilate tremendous punish
ment. A slight cut over his right
eye, caused by the lacing of a glove
in a sparring session a few days
ago, has healed completely.
Tomorrow Heeney plans to keep
his muscles timber with ring eXer-
else, feed heartily on steaks, and
then rest until the gong calls him
into action.
Delaney likewise closed his train
ing in Bridgeport today where he
will stay until called to New York
for the weighing in ceremonies on
Thursday afternoon.
Meanwhile, Madison Square Gar
den reported that the match was
heading toward "sell-out" with a
gate approximating 100000 in
prospect. Victory for either con-
tender by the knockout route prob
ably will mean a 'tghot'' at Fun-
ney's crown in June, with the Win

Nebraskan Conger lost to Hahn

"But I told Conger he. had the
speed to do it," said DR.. Peltzer,

Hahn's pace closely and then try

1T Is PITTS YEAR

1T is PITTS YEAR
If any one eastern institution Of
learning has held the athletic glare
this collegiate year, it is Pittsburgh.
Pitt had a most successful season in
football. It's basketball team today
ranks the outstanding one in the
east.
The Pitt grid squad, as it is easy
to remember, was the only major
eleven in the east to finish its regular
schedule undefeated. Jock Suther-
lands boys were held to scoreless
tie by the Washington and Jefferson
eleven.
The PanEhers claimed eastern and
national titles for their season OF
play. but this claim did not meet
with the response necessary to receive
such titles without argument. Yale
was favored equally for the eastern
title by many.
Their national claim skidded bit
when they lost to Stanford in the
annual Tournament OF Roses game
at Pasadena. This loss was by lone
point margin.
Nevertheless, Jock Sutherland had
a great team and it played sensa-
tionalIy during the season. Its out
standing performer was Gibby Welch,
captain, who was chosen practically
unanimously as an all-American back.
HAVE GREAT CAGE TEAM
Perhaps the Pittsburgh basketball
team will suffer defeats ONCE before
they hang their togs up fcr the
season. Perhaps twice. But after
escaping Notre Danes gallant fight
the other night, it is doubtful.
When the Panthers met the Irish
a few nights ago, they had won 13
straight games They were the
favorites to win by at least ten
points.
To be sure, they won, but by the
margin OF only two points and in
the last 20 seconds of play. 1t was
a tough battle, and one that seemed
about to be recorded a loss for the
Panthers.
Pitt has defeated some of the more
important Big Ten teams and several
of the leading eastern teams. The
team has averaged close to so points
a game. And with that one tight
battle against Notre Dame out OF
ifs system, Pitt should carry on
as they did in earlier games.
The Irish led the Panthers through
out. They outplayed the PantherS
most of the game. But the PantherS
made good I6 foul efforts in 20 at
tempts. That won for them.
DON'T THINK OF LOSING
Pitts success on the cage floor this
season is easily explained by Coach
Carlson. In way, one can see why
they're winning by watching them
in a game.
The Panthers do not know what
it is to think in terms OF defeat.
They go out. on the floor expecting
to win, are told they can win if
they fight and then they fight to
win.
In Captain Reed. Wrobleski and
Hyatt, they have three as accurate
shots as one could ask for. 1t was
Hyatt's loop in the lass E0 seconds
of play from almost mid-flocd that
wen over Notre Dame.
This trio has made more than 500
points in Ia games. Hyatt alone has
shot 80 field goals He is just
sophomore but is the most accurate
handler of the ball on the Pitt team.
