Get Fresh, WH You? I'H ShotO You Up." He Did

NEWARK, July 21.-A lone aviator and 40 truck drivers en- gagged in fued that started over the literal throwing of mud on Aviator Kenneth Ceilings. He accused the drivers of deliberate- ly splashing mud on a new bi- plane he parked on the flying field along the road
 His protests, Ceilings said, were answered with more mud and attempts to pick him off with their trucks as he walked along the road.
 So yesterday, Ceilings decided to have revenge.
 He leaped into his mud-spat- tered plane and headed down the road towards the truck drivers.
 He swooped low as he passed one truck and clipped off the drivers mirror with a tail skid.
 He swooped over another truck and, according to the driver, Frank Krouse. ripped off the top.
 Ceilings, when arrested later, said: "I was just giving the truck drivers a dose of their own medicine. There was not any danger. I handle my plane bet ter than they handle their trucks"

BY one of those wierd decisions,
which occasionally follow bouts in

the winner last night over Baby Joe

that the young negro had driven his
opponent around the ring in the
closing sessions of a 10 round bout.

entirety by the attendance.
As for the bout, the less said the
better. Click got away to good
