MOTHER FIGHTS
FOR GLORIA

CONTINUED from Page -
Evening Journal said it had
learned some of the details of
the conference between Supreme
Court Justice Carew and attor-
neys for both sides, at which the
fate of the Vanderbilt child was
all but decided.
Asks for Suggestion
Turning to lawyers for Mrs.
Vanderbilt, Justice Carew asked:
"Have you any suggestion to
make as to what should be done
with the child?"
Mrs. Vanderbilt's counsel re-
piled:
"NO suggestion of any kind
except to demand complete GUS
tody for the mother"
Said the jurist:
"Well, how about this-Mrs.
Whitney is to have custody of
the girl for the five school
days of each week, and Mrs.
Vanderbilt can have her on Sat
urdays and Sundays. This will
enable the mother to take the
child to church and bring her
up in the Catholic faith, as she
desires"
Mrs. Vanderbilt's counsel re.
torted:
eve can accept no such
terms"
Then Justice Carew directed
the Whitney lawyers to draw up
an order embodying the points
he had laid down, with the
proviso that the child would be
free to go into court and name
her own guardian when she
is IA.
He also told the Vanderbilt
lawyers that they could draw up
an order containing their own
program, if they wished, but the
offer was refused, since Justice
Carew indicated plainly enough
that he did not intend to sign it.
Ignorant Of 1t
Asked for a confirmation OF
this version of the parley in
Justice CareW's chambers, attor.
neys for both sides refused to
make any statement. Nathan
Burkan, Mrs. Vanderbilt'S chief
counsel, said he knew nothing
about it,
Mothers Revenge"
A curious feature of the parley
was the development of little
drama in itself which might be
entitled "A mothers revenge"
For Justice Carew was said to have
specified that Emma Keislich,
former Vanderbilt nurse who
shocked and astounded the court
with her unSavory testimony
about Gloria's mother, must be dis
charged by Mrs. Whitney.
Justice Carew's reported Stipu-
lation that Mrs. Keislich must be
discharged was believed due to a
determination to remove the child
from contact with any person who
entertained such a low opinion of
her mother as the nurses testi-
mony indicated.

The parole board was influenced
further by the recommendation
of Captain Barnard, Mr. La Roe
said. Captain Barnard. expressed
the conviction tn a t Donovan
should be granted the parole as
long as he was kept away from
cities and large towns.
Must Avoid Cities
Mr.. La Roe said today if Dono-
van is seen near any city he will
be arrested Immediately.
Colonel Peak denied today he
had written letter to the Parole
Board objecting to Donovan's
parole. Colonel Peak said he had
made a notation on certain memo
randa dealing with Donovan'S case
in which he expressed objection
to the parole.
Mr.. La Roe declared this pro-
cedure is authorized by the stat
ute creating the Parole Board
and that, in his opinion, it grants
the prisoner requesting the parole
greater liberty of speech.
Mr.. La Roe said that he had
not been informed of Colonel
Peaks objection to the parole,
adding:
'If 1 had known that Colonel
Peak was opposed, it would have
made a very great difference"
Donovan's police record shows
that he has been arrested IS
times, and twice sentenced to 10
years in prison. He served less
than four years on the first sent
ence.

RING ON ROCKS
HERE AFTER
8 MONTHS

The inevitable has happened to
the infant sport of legalized box
ing in Washington-a mere baby
of seven months.
The matchmaker and promoter
of one club have dissolved inter
ests because the matchmaker
never got any remuneration on the
basis of a fifty-fifty split on
profits.
The existance of another club
is threatened because neither the
realty owners or the promomter
wish to advance the several thou
sand dollars necessary to make
the building comply with fire and
public assembly regulations.
Meanwhile a promoter who has
been trying to get a toe-hold on
boxing in Washington since last
April is requesting privilege to
stage a show at the washington
Auditorium next Friday night.
The boxing commission, which
adopted a regular Monday after
noon meeting regime when it was
created, would ordinarily act on
the new promoters request next
Monday afternoon. The District
Government has a half day next
Monday.

PORTNERS PLAN.
IS To REOPEN

Portners Arena. the fight cen
ter at Alexandria, will reopen
January 7, according to plans
being made today by Jack Tul-
loch and Abe Martin, who made
telephone application of the Vir-
ginia Boxing Commission for a
license, and who also started the
ball rolling with the Alexandria
Common Council to get permis-
sion to reopen the old brewery
shipping room for fisticuffing.
The plan is the answer to
Washington's steady ring collapse
since the sport was legalized here
last April. It was the plan of
Tulloch and Martin to reopen
with Petey Sarron facing Eddie
Burl and to feature Buck Everett
and Bobby Tow, as well as Marty
Gallagher and Matte Brown at
later dates.
For the most part, club fights
will be staged, but later a ma
tional figure or two may be
brought in if the traffic justifies.
Joe Lewis and Billy Jones are
sought as are Tony Canzoneri
and Pete Perrone.

lightful boxer, timed him to the
split second and drove home a
right to the head. An inch lower
and Wolgast would have been
knocked out, but the champion in
leading dropped his head just an
inch.
But that blow spelled caution,
even to Wolgast. The champion
had a style of folding his left arm
over his face as he walked in. He
did this and swung his right at
Mexican Joe's body. The blow
took toll, but Rivers shifted, made
Wolgast miss, and countered with
his left.
Wolgast rushed, swinging both
hands in the rally that brought
the finish. Rivers stood still, jab'
bing with his left hand to force
an opening. Wolgast Strengthened
under the jolting power Of that
straight left hand. He started for
ward, swinging left.
AS he came, Rivers rose on his
toes and lashed out with a right
to the chin. If he missed-well,
it was better to be finished in a
furry than worn down. AS Joe
rose to his toes, Wolgast hooked
his left for the body.
Right Lands First
The right hand of Rivers landed
first, and as he lifted himself on
his toes, the left of Wolgast landed
with thud in his groin. Down
they went, Woigast stiffened,
Rivers writhing under the pain of
the foul punch.
Jack Welch looked at the men.
He hesitated for a moment and
then, lifting Wolgast to his feet,
started to count over Rivers.
He finished the count in viola
ton of every known boxing code
and declared Wolgast victor on a
knockout. Of course Welch was
wrong. Rivers had been fouled,
and the referee had assisted one
of the contestants, but the de-
ciSion stood.
Rivers never got over that fight
and the decision. He always felt
that the fact he was a Mexican
prevented him from reaching the
top despite his great ability. Now
we have another Joe Rivers, fiery
little man with iron fists. He has
great name, and apparently he
has a lot of ability. Maybe he
will get some place.

In the eyes of everyone except
Jack Welch, the referee, Rivers
won that fight either by foul or
by knockout. But Welch pulled
Wolgast, knocked cold by smash
on the jaw to his feet and counted
out Rivers who was fouled beyond
all doubt.
Now Wolgast had won the light
weight champion of the world
from Battling Nelson, stopping the
Durable Dane after ~ rounds Of
fighting, the fury and sheer
