She rushed to him and tried to
put her arms around him. but he
shook her off.
"It's all right It's nothing" he
said to her, and walked into the
living room, still holding his arm
above the elbow.
A few minutes afterward Lily

She handed Lily q large glass
jar Of jellied chicken broth that
abe had brought for Pat. She
was always bringing lhim some

sponge cake, golden and light as
II could be. Sometimes 1t was

Pat shot a quick glance at
them. II believe I'd like the

Unfortunately Lily saw the
glance. She picked up the half
gallon glass jar of broth from
the sink and began to unscrew
the top.
''All right" she said evenly.
But her breath began to come
thick and fast as her anger rose.
Then suddenly she threw the
top down into the sink. took the

For half an hour the CONVEX

It was a white pasteboard box,
and tied around it. under the tissue

brought Lily to her senses.
Staley had not understood, from
the letter she had written him
weeks before. that she had def

was still expecting her to leave the
flat as soon as Pat was better!
She remembered nothing OF the
letter except the last line she had
written: $50 I have changed all
of my plans"
She stood, looking out OF the
window at the cold gray sky and
the tossing branches Of the bare
black trees.
He thinks / meant that my
plans were changed just for the

out--and all at once she knew that
she was glad he thought that.
HE still wants me-" she said to
herself" II won't spoil Pats
Christmas by telling him I'm going
to leave him--but I'll just go, day

The chances are that Lily never
would have left Pat If 1t had not

! Shrift with the champion. This prob
ably accounts for the bleatings of the
professional sharper when the name Of
Tunney is mentioned Believe 1t or
not the rank and file Of all sport
/ lovers are with Tunney, for the simple
reason that the sooner his method Of
boxing comes into general use, the
sooner the list of battered. mentally
unbalanced wrecks of the fight racket
awaiting admission to aSylums will be
reduced That is something TO think
about when the blood lusty fans shout
encouragement and urge the winning
fighter to finish up with a knockout
Fitz Was Hecney's Idol.
Heeney has been fight fan from
his earliest days. Tom admits that
his Idol was Bob Fitzsinmons from the
day he first began to understand the
uses OF the hands AS defensive and
offensive weapons. His rough and
tumble scraps back in the good old
days still are talked about in the little
town where he was born and grew I'D
to be blacksmith and a fighter Of
parts
After winning the championship Of
New Zealand and South Africa. Heeney
took ship and tried his hand In England
against Tom Berry, Jack Stanley and
our own BARLEY Madden Winning
over Tom Berry did not mean much
over there. Old Tom is a real patri-
arch of the game Whipping Madden
earned Heeney the right TO substitute
against Phil Scott, the British cham
pion. and Heeney came out second hest.
Arriving here with the aim Of earn
ing enough money to take a train Tor

for New Zealand, Heeney showed more
stuff than most of the foreign visitors
and now he is matched to try for the
greatest prize in fistiana
Heeney is plodder-not the slow,
type of shutting batter.
but the game, courageous and honest
fighter whose every move creates the
impression that you are watching
man putting forth his best efforts.
Heeney is retiring by nature He has
plainly of confidence in himself. but he
is not boasting about it. He has a joo
on his hands and he is going about
doing it the best he knows how. If
that is good enough he will be the next
world champion. If not, Heeney will
come out of it with the praise of the
fans that he gave his best and tried
hard all the way.
