CARNERA, of course, is difficult
~ target to miss inside the ring.
He is apt to become flustered under
heavy fire and his chin has manifest
weakness when solidly hit. But, for
all his cratic pugilistic course, Primo
has improved his defensive ability and
shown rare gameness. Max Baer had
the Italian on the floor II times, but
could not keep him there.
Camera does not carry a heavy
enough punch, for all his bulk. to win
by a Knockout. His best chance Is TO
evade the Negroes punches sufficiently
to keep his feet and pile UP margin
of points with his huge left hand.
Cameras jab is his best and only
scientific weapon.
The hopes of a gate" of upward
of $500, 900, so per cent more than the
Baer-Braddock title fight drew, Is
based largely on the attraction Of the
Louis knockout punch. The customers
like to see big fellows tumble.

though Jake Powell was ex-
pected to be released from

accompany the Nationals to Detroit
tonight, it is not likely that the feet
center fielder will see action In the
five-game series against the Tigers.
Carried on the field here Wednes-
day In agony as result Of the stran-
gulation Of the sciatic nerve in his
right leg, Powell is expected to get a
rest prescription from attending ply
sicianS as well as his hospital release.
Jake spent q bad night Wednesday
and experienced a tough morning yes
terday, suffering from two more at
tacks in his right leg which he strained
so hard while fouling OF one Of Wal
ter Stewards pitches that the nerve in
his leg was severely pinched.
After his second attack early yes
terday morning, however, Powell was
reported resting comfortably, and to-
day he was to be given a preliminary
walking test at the hospital.
A 8 IN the case of their other inva-
sions on this Western swing, the
Nationals will open with a double
header against the Tigers tomorrow,
still shooting for fifth place.
They lost chance to tie for that
niche yesterday when Earl Whitehill
tossed away an 8-to-6 decision to the
Indians, who moved up to the runner
up post in the league standing as a
result Of the win.

Has Fought Many Set-ups.
IT is true that Louis has a great
= punching record and that the cash
customers are being lured by the pros
pect of modified mayhem. 1t is well
to bear in mind, however, that Barney
Ross was confident of knocking out
Jimmy McLarnin, and Max Baer was
sure he would put Jimmy Braddock to
sleep inside half dozen rounds There
was not even a knockdown in either
fight.
Louis reputation for administering
Knockout wallops to his opponents is
such that he may handicap himself
by trying too hard and too soon to
bring down the giant italian.
For all his rapid and spectacular
rise, Louis lacks experience. His rec
ord of 10 knockoutS in % professional
fights within year is impressive until
the list is examined. 1t does not in
clude many victims with familiar
names.

FEW TOUGH FOES
FL0ORED BY JOE
Camera, Defense Improved,
Doesn't Figure to Be an
Easy Victim.
BY ALAN GOULD,
Associated Press Sports Editor.

n YEw YORK, June 21.-The ex-
M pectation that Joe Louis,
VI sensational Negro pugilist, will
n reduce huge Primo Camera
to a punch-riddled heap in the ring
at Yankee Stadium Tuesday night
seems to be widespread among metro
politan fistic followers.
1t has been prompted no doubt
by such headlines as these:
Joe Louis punch is magnet; Brown
Bomber has had every opponent in his
professional career on floor"
Louis like Jack Dempsey; Detroit
destroyer merciless on sparring part
ners as was ManaSSa Mauler."
Bomber sees kayo victory in five
POUNDS"
As far as offering forecast is con-
cerned, all this can be tossed into the
wastebasket. It's the logical ballyhoo
for the fight.

he conferred most of his attention
upon Baers right hand. This job
was made somewhat easier by the
fact that, when Baer decided t. throw

Coiter Cases
BY JAMES W. BARTON. MD.


A S A RESULT of operation for the
severe form of goiter Graves
disease, or exophthalmic goiter) when
the heart is rapid. there is tremor
throughout the body, bulging of the
eyes, indigestion and sleeplessnesS. 1t
is now SO Skillfully performed that
there is not the fear of operation that
existed just few years ago.
Surgeons have learned from the
great number of these cases that exist
just which ones are likely to with
stand the operation. Thus DR.. L.
Seed, Chicago, in Western Journal Of
Obstetrics, Surgery and Gynecology.
says: AN exophthalmic goiter can be
considered a safe risk for operation
If the patient has undergone treat
ment with iodine for sufficient length
of time; if the weight loss is not eX-
ceSSive; if there is no recent weight
loss, and particularly if there has been
gain of few pounds; if the strength
is sufficient for the patient to step on
chair; if the basal metaboliSm rate
(the rate at which the body processes
are Working) Is not more than IS per
cent above normal; if the patient has
no swelling OF hands, feet or abdomen
and can walk a block without being
short of breath: if he is able to be out
of bed three or four hours daily; if
he is eating well and sleeping we'll;
II the disease has not been present
for many years; If the patient is
neither very old nor very young; If
there are no other complicating dis
eases"
This description Of what Is conSid-
cred a safe risk for operation for
exophthalmic goiter can be readily
understood by the patient. 1t will
help him to realize that he Is or Is
not ready for operation. If ready, it
will give him the necessary assurance
or courage to undergo operation. If
he is not ready, it will tend to make
him more patient and willing to rest
and take other treatment considered
necessary while he is waiting to get
into fit condition for operation.
Sometimes the treatment consists OF
taking iodine one week in each month.
In other cases the X-ray treatment
has been Of great help-in fact, when
used over a. prolonged period, many
cases have been cured, and there has
been no need for operation. The def
milton of a case fit for operation will
be approved by most surgeons.

bers who have been able to become
acclimated in the States OF their
adoption and flourish in the soil at
their feet.
The imaginative Spanish settlers
who came to America gave to this
flower its name. In this blossom they
saw the resemblance Of the passion OF
Our Lord. To them the 10 colored
parts of the floral wrapper repre-
sented the 10 apostles who remained
true to Him through His ministry.
The snowy corona of fllaments repre-
sented the crown of thorns, while the
five stamens Symbolized His five
wounds. They had all the parts of
the flower similarly typify the last
hours of the Savior.
You will find that the flower is one
that has many interesting features
and to study it under q magnifying
glass makes you realize what truly
wonderful flower it is.
There are a few species Of passion
flowers that flourish out Of doors In

they revel In the sunshine and are

THIS surname, which was anciently
written Sare, Sayer, Sair and
Saer, signified one who followed the
carpenters trade. The name first
occurs during the reign of Edmund
II, son of Ethelred, the Saxon King,
who ruled over England in the year
1915. 1t was Edmund who fought
six battles with the Danish King,
Canute the Great, and finally divided
the kingdom with him. and at his
death left Canute sole ruler.
The progenitor of the Sears family
in America was John Boucher Sayer,
who married M. Marie L. Won Eg-
mond. which alliance made possible
the repurchasing of several large
estates in England formerly owned
by the Sears family. Among them
was the estate called Little Fordham
ManorS.
The family residence was tempo
rarily in Holland in 1890, at the time
of the birth of Richard Sears, the
America immigrant. He was the first
of the name in this country, and was
called Richard the Pilgrim"
1t was under the influence Of Will
liam Brewster and John Robinson
that Richard Sears decided to join
forces with the Plymouth Colony. He
took up his residence in Yarmouth,
Mass. in 1880. His sons Paul Kynvet
and SilaS are responsible for numer-
Gus family of Sears in America, de-
Scendants of which are found in
various sections of the country.

Retaining Beautiful Neck
BY LOIS LEEDS.

NERHAPS there Is no feature
- which can add more to mi
lady's loveliness than a neck
L which has a graceful, clean
cut chinline. On the other
hand, there is nothing which can de-
tract more from a really chaIming
face than a neck which has been al
lowed to become thick and dumpy,
with a sagging chinline. Fortunately.
the beautiful neck can be retained
through little effort, so it behooves
what she must do to keep the neckline
at its best.
First of all comes correct posture.
If milady sits with shoulders droop-
ing and chest In, it is almost impos-
sible to retain clear-cut chinline.
But If she will always hold her head
in such a way that the chin is hori-
zontal, neck straight. chest elevated
and shoulders well back she is giving
the chin a real chance to keep firm
and lovely In contour.
But despite correct posture and deep
breathing, double chinS have a way Of
coming with the years and the chin
line is apt to become baggy and creepy.
To avoid or correct such defects it is
necessary to use massage, exercise and
aStringent packs. Before the message
cleanse the skin with light cleansing
oil. Remove this with a soft tissue and
then wiring Turkish towel out in hot
water and press this against the throat
and around the neck.
Before the towel has cooled apply
another, continuing this until three
or four towels have been used. The
next step Is to give the skin thor
ough massage with a skin food or
tissue cream. Lift the elbows high
and, beginning under the chin, use
the tips of the fingers and massage
with long stroking movements and
also with light pattering movements
! from the throat to the ears. A face
patter is very good for this massage.
as when this is used there is no
danger of stretching the skin.
plain witch-hazel makes good aStrin-
gent pack. For the average person
plain witch-haZel makes a good aStrin-
gent for this purpose, but if the neck
is very f1eShy the following lotion is
better: One dram boric acid, / dram
powdered camphor. ounce cologne
water, 4 ounces witch-hazel. For the
pack make bandage of several layers
of gauze or thin muslin. dampen it
with the aStringent and bind it firmly
over the throat Slit the ends of the
bandage so that it may be tied at the
back Of the neck and also at the
crown of the head. Leave the pack
on for about an hour and during this
time lie down without a pillow and
relax thoroughly. After the bandage
is removed rub the skin briSkly with
piece of ice wrapped in a soft cloth,
blot the skin dry, apply skin tonic,
which should be allowed to dry on the
skin, and then powder the neck.

Adventure

have felt the keen breath of the
blizzard,

I have burst into song
As skated along
On the edge of a frozen creek.
I have hunted an ill-tempered grizzly
That had hid himself deep in his
sden;
Many things ! have done,
Which found were great fun,
But I never shall do them again.
I have scaled the high peak Of a
mountain
And narrowly missed q crevasse;
I have almost been lost
When valley crossed
And fell in a wide yawning pass.
! have had many thrilling adventures
AS I travelled by land or by sea,
But need not be told
That I'm growing too old
And such feats lack allurement for
me.
I have sailed in frail little shallop
Over seas that were crested with
foam;
I have coped with great bears
In the underground lairs
That the creatures adopt as their
home
I have waded, quite up to my midriff,
In the treacherous swift running
streams;
And still contrive
To be well and alive,
For my deeds were performed in my
dreams.

N YOT all Of US are born alike.
Goodness, no! In fact, few If
any are born alike. So never,
4 Y never should we scorn an
other because in some way he
is less smart than we. 1t may be pos
sible, and quite likely is, that in some
way, possibly a way that doesn't in
terest us at all, he Is smarter.
Glutton the Wolverine was filled
with scorn. To begin with, he was
scornful of his neighbors in fur who
were caught in traps, and these in
cluded some of his own relatives,
Martens and Fishers and Mink and
Otters.
Silly thing" he would say, when
he found one in trap. "Silly thing
to be so stupid as to be caught in one
of those things. Serves him right. He
should have known enough TO keep
out of trap. Any one with any sense
at all should know that when they
find something good to eat where
there seems to be no reason for such
thing to be there is bound to be
something wrong about it. Then they
should look for a trap. That is what
do. When have found the trap !
can always find O way of keeping out
Of it while 1 steal the bait"
And he Scorned the trapper who set
the traps. That fellow thinks he is
smart; thinks he can fool me. Just
as If l don't know all his tricks! He
can't hide thing so that I can't find
it. I know all his tricks and a few
more Of my own. He may and does
fool other folk, but not me. On the
ether hand, can fool him any time
please"
Just to prove that this was not an
idle boast, but that he could do as he
said, he took to following the trapper
along his trap line, keeping far enough
behind to be sure of not being seen,
and going from one hidden trap to
another as unerringly as If he had seen
each set. He would eat the bait and
spring the traps, when he could, carry
ing trap of and hiding it. And
never once did those steel jaws get
SO much as hair from his coat. To
be sure those traps were not set for
him, but for his cousins, who were so
much less trap-WiSe than he.
Then came a time when he knew
that the traps were set especially for
him. He knew that that trapper was
setting those traps with greater skill
and cunning than he had set any be-
fore, and Glutton knew that these
were intended lust for him. Those

traps were set for Just one person in
particular, and he, Glutton, was that
particular person. He knew 1t, and
the knowledge merely filled him with
greater scorn than before. Did this
tWo-legged creature think that he
could outsmart the smartest of all the
people in fur, Glutton the Wolverine?
He must be taught lesson. Yes, sir,
he must be taught lesson.
And so, while the trapper spent
most OF his time trying to trap or
shoot Glutton, most of Gluttons time
was spent in hunting for the traps set
for him, stealing the bait and hiding
the traps. When the trapper hunted
him with his rife Glutton seemed
somehow to know just what the trap
per was about, when he started and
where he was going to hunt. As often
