TITLE HOLDER
TEXAS PRODUCT
Cactus Pete Brown, Popular
Border Boy, Takes On
Joe Montana
Especial to The Herald.)

HARLINGEN. May g. Hugh
Nichols, Interchangeable cham
pion who grapples Red Lyons here
vTeusday night, is the most popular
wrestler Texas has produced since
the doughty Pete Brown, Taylor.
Texas, product OF years ago.
Nichols hangs his hat In Mexia
when not on the road. He could
easily afford 10 quit the ring-he
does not need the money-but he
likes the mat game too well. His
family living in the rich oil fields,
Is independently wealthy. In most
5 a wrestling title is rather
vague, with ten or twelve men
claiming 1t. Not so in the Texans
case, however. Hugh's title, won in
June. 1880 from Joe Benaski al
Cincinnati, Is recognized by the n.
3. A. Nichols also Is generally re-
cognized as the kingpin OF light
heayies even where the N. B. A.
does not rule. His Is a queer case
in this day of topsy-turyy wres-
Ting and two heavyweight kings.
Nichols Is a stocky, good-looking
chap who knows and uses all the
holds. He learned the mat game
under no less a master than the
famous Farmer Burns. II the Tex
an has a speciality, II Is the rolling
leg split. A number OF his most i'm
portant matches were won with this
painful hold.
Title at Stake
Red Lyons. his opponent. has
been going great guns in the VAL
ley. The ". B. A. has agreed TO
sanction this match as a cham
pionship affair II Red will make
the ITS pound limit. Lyons is work
ing hard to take off 5 IL pounds
to be within the limit. Red needs
no introduction. Valley fans have
seen him in action often. He may
spring a surprise on the champion.
In the second spot of the evening.
Patrick OBrien and Crybaby
Leahman will get together. They
have appeared on the same cards
together but not against one an
other for several weeks. Each has
won his matches in great style.
Both have strong followings. About

ed trend Of large proportion of the

tourers and convertible sedans
Each car in The extensive array"
said Rogers, "is highly individual

particular body type.
The steady rise in popularity of
, convertible cars especially, may be
attributed directly to the advance

be regarded as an individual MASTER

GRAHAM SETS
new RECORD ON
TRIP TO NEVADA

Racing across alkali desert roads
with the temperature at 108 de-
grees, and climbing 5000 feet to
cross the Sierras, a Graham Pros
perity six recently set a new record
for the run between Los Angeles
and Reno, New. The 511 mile
stretch was covered in 10 hours and
3 minutes, an average speed Of
50.84 miles an hour.
In less than "a hours after its
start, the Graham was back in Los
Angeles, having completed a 1922
mile round trip in % hours and
minutes running time, an average
speed of 1925 miles an hour.
The return trip was made as an
economy test. Although an average
speed of 4245 miles an hour was
maintained, the gasoline mileage
was 1892 to the gallon. Only a
pint and half of oil was used.
The route was far from favorable
for either speed or economy. Three
detours led the Graham across op-
en- desert, over routes that had ruts
instead of road beds.
The Graham left Los Angeles al
1901 a. m. with Harry Neville anc
A. L. Peterson as pilots, and ar.
rived at Reno at 1904 a. m, where
they were greeted by Mayor Rob
erts After only an hour and l:
minutes rest, the drivers started the
return trip, completing the rounc
trip in % hours and Is minutes

ton of engine cooling. Despite the

The athletic facilities provided
for candidates for the Pennsylvan-

school here rival those of a first
class university.
A large field provides space for
baseball in spring and summer;
football in autumn; and soccer in
winter. In addition, it serves to
train the embryo patrolmen in
handling the motorcycles they use.
Recently an oval track, one-third
of a mile in circumference, has
been developed for track sports, and
volley ball and tennis courts have
been arranged.
Plans are now proceeding for
construction of large swimming

provides for indoor activities.
But school life for the patrol re-
cruit is not all play. Candidates
are required to pass rigid mental
and physical tests before admis-
sion and their training is conduct
ed along military lines.
Candidates who have had no eX-
perience in riding motorcycles arc
preferred, because they have con-

WYE usually associate eggs with
w Lenten season and Easter
menus, but they make an excel
lent meat substitute for August
menus and can be prepared in an
infinite variety of appetizing ways.
Poached eggs served on green

surely Sunday morning breakfast.
Make the waffles as suggested a
few days ago and drop hot poach-

the concoCtion.
Eggs la Benedict are delicious
for luncheon or supper. The prep
aration may seem a bit Compli-
Gated. but it really isn't and the
result justifies the work.

Two English mullins. 4 slices

of ham on each muffin and put a
poached egg on top of each. Pour

Melt half the butter and, when
bubbling, stir in -four. Slowly add
stock, stirring constantly. Cook
and stir until mixture boils. Re-

championship entered the semi-final
salient over the Exmoor Country Club
course
Chicago led in numbers. with two ca
pable survivors, Virginia Van Vie and
18-year-old June Beebe - but not IN
golfing class. Kansas City's lone hope
was Mrs. O. s. Hill, an ex-champion,
who toppled Mrs George Tyson, the
defending title holder. yesterday, while
Mrs Leona PreSsler, who captured the
title two years In succession back III
1927 and 1928. represented San Gabriel

There were several geographic posi-
bilities for the final, too, as in today's
elimination battles Mrs Hill faced Miss
Van VIE, while Mrs Pressler tackled
Miss Beebe, one of Chicago's most
promising stars of the younger sets.
