He glories in his stage management.
He Is Snowman, and opportunity sell
dom presents itself but that he takes
advantage Of 1t to display his ability
along this line.
He has color, vitality, courage, in
dependence and knowledge. 1t is easy
to see why one hears so much of him.
Look up his name in the congress
sional directory. Where others use as
much as a half page to outline their
past accomplishments, La Guardia for
years has made this simple entry:
IF. H. La Guardia."
He doesn't even let 1t be known that
his first name is Fiorello, which means
little flower"
Sharp-tongued, he has a mind quick
as flash, and apparently loves nothing
better than an interchange of words.
Few are his equal in reioinder. Rarely
is he at loss for words to put an OPP
ponent at disadvantage.
There was, for example, the time
when he urged an appropriation for
a facade for a building in New YORK
A colleague, somewhat famed for his
handsomeness, opposed it.
Does the gentleman know what a
facade is?" queried La Guardia.
Certainly, I do" was his opponents
retort. 1T is the same thing that a
snout is to a porker. 1t is the face -"
Then" La Guardia shot back, IF
the gentleman would pay less attention
to his face and more to what Is inside
his head he would get along better"

Eye Wrinkles.

Dear Miss Leeds: I have q great
many lines under my eyes, although
am only rs years of age I have used
a good tissue cream for several months
without effect. How can I cure the
wrinkles? ANXIOUS,
Answer.-The commonest cause Of
premature eye wrinkles is, of course,
eye strain. Go to a good eye specialist
and have him test your vision. Prob
ably you need to wear glasses. Eye
strain not only causes wrinkles but 1t
often makes one feel nervous and be-
low par generally. Apply your tissue
cream or muscle oil to the wrinkles at
bedtime. Rest your eyes during the
day several times. Squeeze out pads of
clean absorbent cotton in witch hazel
and lay them over your eyes: lie down
and relax. This is very restful after
busy day and makes tired eyes feel re-
freshed. LOIS LEEDS.

MITCHELL CLASSY

KnockOuts Stud Lively
 Card at Buckingham McLarn, Strong Stop Rivals

Exhibiting right cross that jared his opponent every time he connected, which was frequently, Andy Mitchell. western light-heavy- weight showed altogether too much class for Unknown Winston, Florida darky. in the main bout of a mixed up card last night at Buckingham hall. Four of the five bouts ended prematurely, but the fighting that took place prior to the termination of the bouts was fast and furious, and the small crowd got plenty of action from start to finish.
 With his small army of rooters from Washington, Connecticut to en- courage him Andy Strong, carrying around the noblest dome you ever saw, outpunched Luigi Natanolia of Danbury in a slugging bee that brought a steady stream of blood from both contestants early in the first round. Andrew had Luigi on the floor but not for long as the Ital- ian got up and at it with a vim, Strong's strength and straight punch- ing put Luigi in a dangerous condt- tion in the third, when the bout was 
 On the Floor
 With both of then. playing pos- sum" following scintillating knock downs, Jerry McLarn of Watertown and Vic Carlson of Terryville belted each other around for nearly two rounds, when the fight was suddenly over as Carlson failed to beat the ten count, though he could have easily done so. McLarn stopped a body blow in the first round which folded him up like those small three dollar bills and he lay flat on his back, ap- parently "dead to the world" How ever, the sparkling light from Chick Lawson's steel-gray eyes brought Jerry to his feet with a jump at the count of nine, whereupon he switched to right hand lead and boffed MT Carlson on the maxillary cavity, after which Victor was on the floor and also did a rapid rising act before the knockout number. Carl- son had the best of the going up to him on the floor again, and while thinking it over, was suddenly aware that the fight was over. He was about half a second late getting up.

Joe went down and was counted out.
 Young Ganado of Florida and Buster Nadeau of Holyoke wound up the show in furry of leather which was spoiled when Buster put on a little act after being hit low, and won the bout on a foul. The punch was low, but a two minute rest would have done both boys justice.

BERG 8 TO 5 TO
 |OUTPOlNT HERRARA TN GARDEN TONIGHT
Hard-Hitting Mexican to Face Whitechapel Whirl- wind = Right Hand
 Punching Gives Herrara
 a Chance
BY DIXON STEWART United Press Stan COrrcspOndent)


 New York, May 8-tUP)-Jack (Kid) Berg. the most capable and popular British fighter who has in- vaded America during recent years, returns to a New York ring tonight in a bout which he hopes will prove a stepping stone back to the heights of greatness he enjoyed prior to his recent knockout by Lightweight Champion Tony Canzoneri.
 Berg is scheduled for ten rounds, or less, with Tony Herrara of Mex ico, at Madison Square Garden. and strange to relate boxing fans appear to believe close and interesting battle will result.
 Attractive
 A month ago, a meeting of Berg and Herrara, comparative novice, would have been regarded as mis- match. Now, the bout is attracting wide attention and many close students of fistic affairs consider the Mexican good bet on the short end of the prevailing to odds.
 Berg, who until his astounding knockout by Canzoneri was regard ed as the outstanding contender for the lightweight and welterweight champions, is reputed to be washed up''-although there are no good grounds for this suspicion.
 Tony Short on Class
 The rugged little Whitechapel Whirlwind may have lost some of his energy in two years of fighting but there is little doubt that he is one of the best men of his size that the ring has produced, and he could slip fifty per cent and still rate over Herrera. Jackie should win decisive ly tonight and it would not be sur- prising to see him re-established as a title contender with an opportun- ity to reverse the decision in a re- turn match with Canzoneri.
 Herrara is far from a "set up" for any lightweight, but he still is a comparative novice and at least a year removed from championship class. He is strictly right hand puncher and does his best work against slow moving target. The rushing, mauling Berg is the type of fighter who can make him look bad, and should do so, although Herrara will be dangerous so long as he can lift his right hand.
 Sircci on Card
 The g-Herrara bout marks the reSuHlptiOH OI uoAlHS dI MdulSoLi Square Garden after six-week lay off. It will be supported by strong preliminary card including ten- round between Tony Tozzo of Buff falo. brother of former Lightweight Champion Rocky Kansas, and Vim cent Street of New Jersey; ten- rounder featuring Young Terry of Trenton, N. J., and Ignacio Ara of Spain; and the usual six and four round appetizers.
