sheet, nine of the ten rounds, five by

the first round when Ruggirello landed
four clean hard rights to win the edge,
the fight was all Barry. There were
no knockdowns, although Barry twice
had his foeman on the verge of going
down, the bell saving Ruggirello in the
seventh
Scaling a surprisingly light 1872
pounds, Ruggirello earned clean-cut
margin in the first heat. His vaunted
right hand, which kayoed Stanley
Poreda and Walter Cobb, bounced OF
Reds chin and shook him up. Barry,
weighing 202. boxed cautiously In this
round, but opened up in the second and
found Ruggirello's crouching style made
to order. For the next five rounds
Barry employed his left almost con-
stantly. jabbing, hooking and, as the
fight wore on, winding it up a la Petey
Sarron.
In the seventh Barry came out with
both fists failing. catching Ruggirello
flush on the chin with a series of rights
and lefts. The lanky Italians bony
knees began to wabble and as the bell
sounded it appeared as though he was
going down. Again in the ninth Barry

I'm told that some of you would
like to take brides, but are worried
by the rule requiring patrolmen to
live i'm patrol barracks.
eff you have the courage to marry,
go ahead and God bless you! You
can set up housekeeping in your head
quarters community, but with the
understanding that you must serve
your turn in the patrol quarters when
called upon"
Mr.. Arnoldy's first instructions to
the patrol were short.
You are to follow the same rules
and policies which have governed the
patrol in the past" he said. BE
courteous under all circumstances,
and apply common sense to your prob
lens. Give every possible help to
motorists and tourists on our high
ways. Obey the traffic rules of the
local community in which you find
yourself. We are traffic organiZa-
ton, not a state constabulary. but if
there is ever a question of saving
life or property, don't rest on tech
