LISTED FOR
WOMEN
BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON

BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON
Conflict may arise as the result
of two golf tournaments in which
women players will be participants
Monday.
The first team matches of the
Women's District Golf League
originally listed Tuesday at Chevy
Chase, were moved up a day. Also.
the Middle Atlantic P. G. A. will
hold a ladies-pro tournament the
same day at Manor.
Of course, the women will start
their team matches at Chevy
Chase early in the morning but
if they run true to past perform
ances, it will be we'll past noon
before their matches are COM
pleted. That means, the matches
at Manor will be late in starting.
Given Assurances
However, AL Treder, Manor pro,
has received assurances from the
feminine players that they will
be on hand for the ladies-pro.
tournament.
The first team matches were
moved ahead a day as the Mary
land women's championship
opens Thursday. Officials of the
women's District Golf Association
presumed the local women would
want to take part in the Mary
land event but it now appears
that less than half a dozen will
enter.
Georgetown Prep placed six in
the quarter-finals of its invitation
golf tournament, being held at
Garrett Park, Md. They are
Frank Allan, team captain;
Maury Nee, Billy Dettweiler, Bob
Troutman, Jack SeWell and Dick
Jenney. Today, Dettweiler was

CARAVANS
By BILL CORUM
When Farley Was King But They Crept Back
Of the CGuLifLODerS When Barney Beat Jim;
Fouls We're Ruled Out That Won't Do At All

NEW YORK, June 1.-When
Postmaster General James A.
Farley was chairman of the New
York State Boxing Commission
that body passed the most con-
Structive measure that boxing
hereabouts had seen in 10, 20,
maybe 80 years. 1t abolished
the foul.
The boys "Warn't gwine a
foul no mo-" The fake, phony,
wheeling, whining claim Of foul
was out and gone forever more.
For two are three years prior
to the adoption of this rule, a
little man with long hair who
would weigh, 1 should say,
around 1875 pounds, sopping wet,
had been going about with a
protective invention of his own,
pleading with tears in his eyes
for any giant in the crowd to
hit him low, or bang him low
with a sledge hammer.
This little man had been prov
ing beyond question, in other
words, that 999 claims of foul
out of 1000 in the prize ring
were strictly the business. That
those overpaid and over-public-
lied loogans had been dancing
around with tears in their eyes
but larceny in their hearts when
they claimed foul.
For a time the Generals no
foul rule worked like charm.
Philip Sufferer Scott returned
to his natural and normal trade
of shaving blighters in Soho in
stead of boxing fans in the
United States.
Goes In Movie
Max Schmeling, who won the
worlds heavyweight champion
ship on a foul. identified himself
with the motion picture industry
in Germany. Jack Sharkey
opened a beer saloon in Boston.
A lot of the other boys who
had been around during the
scream foul and and-win era
gradually faded from the pic
ture. It became possible to
watch a fight without seeing
some big bozo, his face screwed
up into his own personal inter
probation of a look of pain, out
rage and anguish, turn to the
referee and Squawk:
HE hit me low, the big bully,
he did"
5 We began to have some pretty
good fights around here.
But at the RossrMcLarnin
bout the other evening the bad
penny of the foul squawk came
back. Not from Barney Ross, I
hasten to say. But aided and
a be tied by Referee Eddie
Forbes, the old cry did come
back to mar an otherwise first
rate fight.
Sitting just back of Ross cor
ner and also back of the writer
was a large and overly-noisy
gentleman who sounded suspi-

Cummings to Drive
In LanqhOrne Races

LANGHORNE, Pa, June l
Wild Bill Cummings, winner Of
the 500-mile Memorial Day Classic
at Indianapolis, will make his next
appearance here Saturday, june
9, in a program of 100 miles OF
sprint racing.
The Washington times., 1934-06-01

ciously like he was trying to root
home a ten-dollar bet. Every
time McLarnin hit Ross as
much as an inch below the
neck, this man, who apparently
wanted to referee the fight as
we'll as see it. set up an ear
splitting squawk Of:
keep 'em up, keep 'em up!"
I don't know whether Forbes
heard him. If he didn't he
must have been wearing his ear
muffs in May. But that isn't
the point.
Take Up Cry
When ringsiders begin yelling
keep 'em up, others further
back, who can't see so well, take
UP the cry, so that the fighter is
soon wrong whenever he hits
anybody at all.
There was no low blow struck
in the RoSS-McLarnin fight
which was important enough to
cost either fighter a round.
Not a great hardship mind
you. Not enough to change the
outcome of the fight. Forbes,
as 1 saw the bout was eminently
correct in scoring Ross a de-
cisive winner. Nobody could
have been more surprised than
I have been at the not incon-
siderable number of fans -
many of them fans of long sit
ing at many ringsides-who
agree in general with Tom
O'Rourke scoring that made
McLarnin a clean cut winner.
1t simply goes to show again
how differently two people
can look at the same thing,
particularly a fight. We can't
change that. We can't deny a
fans inalienable right to root
as he pleases once he has paid
his way in even though it
may be obnoxious to others
who have also paid their way
in.
But we can stamp out that
too efficient, too technical
business of a referee bouncing
on a fighter like a cat on a
mouse every time he so much
as ripples the top of the other
fellows trunks.
Stamp It Out Now
And you'd better stamp it
out now, Messrs. Phelan, Brown
and Ware, or you'll be right
back in that foul foolishness
quagmire that all but wrecked
boxing in the days of General
Jim.
I seem to be getting pretty
technical myself. Please for
give me. It won't happen again
for weeks but I'm serious about
this. Nor do I want to be I'M
fair to Forbes. There are many
worse re cir ees than Eddie
around here, and maybe none
better, but for the good of box
ing I know he'll forgive us for
using him as a horrible ex-
ample.

 Another evening. The same two lamps burned in the living room of the small apartment. One on the radio; tiny spinning wheel base busts of Martha and George Wash ington on the parchment shade; beneath which sat the husband.
 The other, in the alcove behind the divan, upon a combination table and guest bed. It was of bronze, amper glass, and with a shade of sold-colored silk. Both lamps were wedding gifts and did not even try to hide the fact that they were more than seven years old.
 Dinner was over. The dishes had been washed. dried and put upon the second shelf just over the roasting pan in which the bread was kept-the pantry door had been closed and locked; the tram some over the kitchen door opened about three inches; the ceiling light extinguished.
 The baby called from her bed. The wife went and rapped upon the bedroom door with her knuck- les. 2
 NO, no, mo-" she told the child. "It is not necessary Go to sleep or mother will spank"
 She came and sat on the divan, a few feet from her husband. He pulled the flassock between them in pigeon-toed embrace and they rest ed their feet upon it.
 The radio was playing-Philadel- phia orchestra - but they did not listen.
 She thought: 1T suppose he will sit up all night again pounding at his typewriter. A futile business"
 He: Why doesn't she go to bed I could change the setting of that story and send it to some other publisher. The thing moves and breathes; there is a surging emo tion deep down, something vital and pulsing. Yes, shall change the setting and perhgaps do a lit- tie polishing"
 The wife said: "Pn be glad to go to bed if you think you can write tonight"
 "I don't know until I try; there's no telling.
 He thought: "I am beginning to hate her. A stumbling block she is; barrier between me and suc- cess. And there is no end of it.. One can earn a promotion from a mediocre position to better one; can climb from Alger to the class ics, but in rnarriage-'
 She thought: "He is moody again tonight. If I were to go to bed now he would be lonely and soon follow. If I remain up with him, he will feel that I am keep ing him from his york; "Just let me know" she said, "I'll turn in whenever you. want
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-09-28

The husband said: "Her high notes are a quarter-tone fiat"
 A pause, and then the wife said: If you want me to go to bed I'll do it.''
 "well, if you think you can sleep"
 She came and stood beside him and fumbled with the fasteners of her dress. The husband reached for his pipe and studied the inside of the bowl in simulated conceri- tration.
 "She is waiting for me to take her hand and pull her down onto my lap," he thought, Waiting for me to hold her in my arms; to rub her cheek gently with my beard- stubble; to tell her that she is low ed. Such little thing, and yet [ cannot bring myself to do it."
 She stood behind his chair for q moment. Her hand was poised above his head as though she would run her fingers through his hair. But the hand dropped heavily to her side.
 Goodnight were said with feigned far-oftness.
 The husband silenced the radio. He set before him a table upon which was portable typewriter. There was also the story which he was to rewrite. But he brushed the manuscript aside and leaned back in his chair.
 T should have taken her in my arms; should have fiattered her vanity" he thought. aar Outside, the wind whistled through the trees and coughed up- on the windows. Inside, the radia- tors missed and the electric clock ground. There was certain unde@ finab1e rhythm within his brain: a rhythmic chunk-chunking synchro- nizing with the beats of his heart. At last, thought seemed to fall iti and march with these pulsations. jumbled thoughts; meaningless anagrams.
 And then, out of the chaos, came truth; clear, undeniable. He shook down one corner of his mouth. sneeringly. But the thought per- sisted.
 "Oh, so be it then. It is I who would be comforted; I who would be flattered." He clasped his hands and rolled his lower lip between his thumbs. He sighed miserably and experienced a sandy dryness in his throat. And he thought, with a twisted, rueful facial contortion: If she would but clasp my head to her bosom ."

They went into the consulting room

an angle between the wall Of the house

body filled and nobody ever seemed to

Sometimes the cook came limping

Every day at O'Clock the little dog
would begin TO listen for the chauffeur's
footsteps coming across the kitchen
floor. He would 60 TO the door and
cock his head, first with the brown ear
up and then with the white, and when
the footsteps began 70 come he would
wag his tail and then his hind quarters
and when he was wagging all over and
straight up to his ears the tail would
be pumping hard enough to fly off.

quite crazy with JOY, would snatch Il
