in the newspapers when he ar
rived in Paterson eight weeks ago,
he exuded a sense of his own i'm
portance and did not even try to
adapt himself to his surround
ings.
The Strengs waited eight
weeks, hoping for improvement.
Even Jeane, the almost-sister, was
broken n-hearted when Peter failed
to show signs of budding affec-
ton for his new family.
His aplomb held even when the
Strengs told him they were going
to send him back. Peter did not
write Father Flanagan, his patron
in Omaha, who came all the way
East to learn that the boy had
been sent back.

Sept. S G.N.SO.-There ought to
be a course for poor little boys,
teaching them how to act like
poor little rich boys.
If there we're, Peter CriStopoluS,
of Father Flanagan'S boys home
in Omaha, would not have missed
his chance to be a rich mans son.
At least that is how the rich
man, Jean 5trengs, and his wife
feel about the return to the
orphan home of the 14-year-old
boy they had thought to adopt.
Peters idea of rich boys be-
havior was to hold himself aloof
from the warm-hearted family that
had sent for him because he re-
sembled their dead son.
He rarely said good morning" "
save to confer a favor.
Become Sullen
His nostrils quivered diSdain-
fully at the prospect of menial
tasks performed ungrudgingly by
his almost-foster sister, Jeanne,
who also is IA.
When he was called to task, he
retreated into a shell of Sullen-
ness.
And so today Peter Christopolus
is getting up and going to bed
to the sound of a gong, taking
his turn with the other orphans

French army officers believe
they will prove impregnable.
Details of their construction are

due to labor shortage, many for,

COMMENT ON

BY HENRY McLEMORE

DAYTONA BEACH. Fla, Feb.
24.-The depression may have put
a severe crimp in baseball, football,
boxing, and a dozen other major
/ sports, but automobile racing, ac-
cording to Ted Allen, secretary of
the contest board of the A. A. A.,

green bay tree in 1882, and is head
ed for record season in 1898.
Asked for an explanation OF this,
Allen said he didn't know. We
suggested perhaps the chance au-

than baseball or football. If you
don't believe that, check over the
baseball and football fatalities of

You see, the men who run rae
ing are constantly trying to lessen
its hazards. Take the Indianapolis
speedway This year there won't
be half as many crack-ups in the
big race as in the past. The quail
flying test has been increased from
10 to 25 miles. That step alone will
eliminate many bad accidents, for
a car that stands up through 25
miles of top-speed driving is likely
to go the route in the real race
without falling to pieces.
Smaller Gas Tanks
We've taken another smart step.
too. This year gas tanks will be
limited to Is gallons. AS the cars
use about a gallon every eight
miles, the drivers will be forced to
make four or five stops during the
race, giving them time to rest and
the mechanics time to check over
the motor and tires. II the past
drivers carried as much as 40 gall
Ions of gas, which meant they did
not come to the pits for refuelins
but once"
Allen, who has been around rae
ing long enough to know most of
the answers, was asked which was
more important in winning race
the man or the car.
That's sort of tough to say, but

a good driver will to making a weak

EXPECT R|SKO
To BEAT KING
BY JACK CUDDY

United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Feb. "a. = Johnny
Risko. veteran Cleveland heavy
weight, is a 6-5 favorite to make it
three straight victories over Chi
cago's wild-swinging fish pcddler,
King Levinsky, in their l0-round
bout tonight at Madison Square
Garden.
It will be the first boxing show
in the garden since the unfortunate
Ernie Schaaf- Primo Camera bout
on February 10 and although it
promises to be interesting it lacks
lustre.
Johnny won decisions over the
king in two previous encounters.
This Cleveland baker boy, whom
Tex Rickard called 1.-The Spoiler"
because he blasted the hopes of SO
many promising young heavies, is
still regarded as the stumbling
block of the ring, despite his nine
years of battling and his ripe age
of 81.
He has been Steamlng along ever
since he recovered from an ankle
injury last year. Late in 1882 he
beat Mickey Walker, Tuffy Grif-
fiths and Levinsky. He is far more
experienced than his 22-year-old
opponent, and apparently shrewd
enough to keep out of range of
Levinsky's dangerous right.
Levinsky might win by knock
out, although Johnny is one of the
most rugged fellows in the game.
The king is wild but he has ter

Of punishment and keep swinging,
which makes him a constant men
