BRITISHER
SLOW TO
START
BY JACK DEMPSEY

Jimmy Johnston's only concern
so he says-in reference to that
Scott-Sharkey fight is the first
round.
MY Phil" points out Johnston,
sis what you could call a slow
starter or q bad first rounder.
Plenty Of fellows are just like
that. Can't get going good until
they get q. bit sweated UP and
the blood is circulating just right.
"Phil rarely shows well in the
opener. SO I'll be fretting little
bit until that round is over. How
ever, won't be doing any great
worrying. Sharkey is no killer.
He's not fast finisher. In fact,
Sharkey isn't fast anyway. That's
all q fallacy."
At that point Johnston,
whose speciality Is "raZz" uSu'
ally grinds and reminds
folks:
"Wasn't 1 in Sharkey's corner
plenty of times2 Don't know
how he fights? Don't I know
what he likes and doesn't like?
Don't I know that bird. And
knowing it, don't you suppose I'm
taking advantage Of that knoWl'
edge and tutoring my Phil In
what to do-and not to do-to
make sure he gives Sharkey one
brutal ShellackinH?
"I'll not be in Sharkey's corner
for that fight-of course not. III
be in there with my Phil. But
all the time I'll be looking at
Sharkey and kind of agitating
him. Sharkey does not like that.
He likes to agitate-not to be
agitated. And while he's all aGl-
tated, why my Phil will be smack
ing him and agitating him some
more.
"a man of destiny, that's
my Phil. Surest thing in the
world to beat Sharkey. Fate
picked him out. After that
Won POrat fight, which he
won because Otto actually
fouled him, the folks gave my
Phil the old bird, hOOted him.
scoffed at him just because
Won POrat mot my Phil, mind
yOu) struck a low punch.
"And SO Phil went back to Eng
land. It was 100 to / he wouldn't
get q crack at Sharkey.
'cBut he's. the boy that's get
ting the big chance. Why? Fate
that's what did it.. Picked him
right out when there didn't seem
a chance in the world for him
and arranged it SO that he is
the boy to give Sharkey a first
class beating.
@And Phil will do it. For
q long time they've been
giving him the worst Of it
In the U. 8. A. SpOOfing
him, you knOw-writerS and
fighters, too. But you don't
find those fighters any too
anxious to take him on, did
you? Said abb when they
talked about MIN ana MONO
mo- when he wanted to fight
'em.
"Schmeling knew about Phil
and ducked. A smart boy that
German. But Sharkey isn't so
smart. Picked Phil rather than
Griffith. Thought him softer.
Oo-la-la-what a shock he's go
ing to get on fight night in
Miami" .
Well, all I'll say is that-if
Scott is q slow starter and
Sharkey's as strong as he was
against me in the first round of
our set-to-Friend Johnston is
sure to experience three minutes
Cor 1ess) of a real agitation!

Chapter Is
 A JOB FOR MARY LOU


 In her imagination Mary Lou of ten had broken the news of hel engagement to Jay. She always pic tured herself laughing excltedly telling Jay breathlessly how Ton, had proposed to her.
 Now, however, that she was to be engaged to Tony, she felt none ol the anticipated thrill-because this was different. So far as tht world knew, she was engaged t. Tony-yet actually she was no engaged at all.
 Tony appeared to think that the game of make-believe only made the situation the merrier, but Mary Lou still wasn't convinced.
 Having gained his point, Tony was pleased with the whole world in general, and Mary Lou in par ticular. Why not? wouldn't this assure the needed, financial backing from Aunt Ethelberta? To him, that left nothing. to be desired.
 He wanted to rush in with Mary Lou to break the news to Jay anc Jerry. Mary Lou suggested that hel cousins be included in the secret but Tony was adamant in his op- jections.
 If we start telling anyone, Il means that the story will gel around somehow or other. You know that people will start talking Aunt Ethelberta will be sure te hear it.. and there'd be a grand climax when she disinherited me And she'd be sure to do it. Ther there wouldn't be any more fiyine of any description. No, we mustn't risk it by telling soul.
 we must carry on as thougr everything were normal, as though Cupid actually had shot the fatal dart. Besides, we are seriously en- gagged, if it comes to that. IT bring you the jolly old ring in the morning. Even when you have cut me out of your life, you can keer it in memory of the time when you helped me to realize the one thing I wanted most to do"
 oaAll right she agreed, T "on'' tell a soul. All the same, l don' like to deceive Jay"
 Tony waved that objection asioe wen take them both out tonor. row night and treat 'enn to a DE dinner Champagne, buckets of it to drink our health. Jay will en- ioy it. Ali women love an engage ment. The subsequent marriage ! usually a let-down, think. Then when later on you get engaged t1 some other chap, she'll have all tn' fun of it over again"
 Mary Lou looked at him anS wondered how any man could p' such a fool. Did Tony really pe' lieve what he was saying or was I to, stifle an annoying little doup that was troubling his conscience
 The more Tony talked Of her ui timate engagement to some othel fellow. the more she became con uinced that for her there could n' no one else ,, when they drew up before Jay hoxne in Chelsea, she managed y dissuade him from coming inside.

POLICE HOLD 3
IN Staying Of
NEGRO AUDITOR
Wealthy Tennessee Man Is
Accused of Scheme to
Conceal Shortage.

Murder at Scottsburg two months
ago of E. d. Pierson, 81, Of Chicago,
Negro auditor for the National Bap-
fist convention, resulted in arrest of
three Negroes Thursday night, two
in Indianapolis.

DAT West Michigan street, were ar
rested here. A. NJ. Townsend of
Nashville, Tenn, one of the veal
thiest Negroes in the country and
alleged brains" of the murder plot,
was arrested at Nashville. He gave
$4,000 bond.
Shortage Is Alleged
Townsend is secretary Of the
Negro Baptist Sunday school pub
fishing board and auditor of the
largest Negro bank in Nashville.
Authorities allege a shortage of
$4,000 in books of the Negro Bap-
fist convention loan fund at Nash
vile, and say the shortage was dis
covered by Pierson. Staying of the
Negro auditor followed, it is al
legged, to prevent action against
Townsend.
