Collect

John Carter, representing the
Lincoln Athletic Club, today told
The Times that the club is in
no way in default with regards
to the payment of Joe Louis,
Detroit brown bomber, for his in,
PRODUCTION from the ring a week
ago tonight in connection with
fight program.
He stated that the Lincoln A.
c., on the other hand. through
its legal representative, James A.
Cobb. is trying to assist Louis
local attorney, Michael F. Keogh,
in collecting what is due Louis
which the Lincoln A. C. holds is
due from someone else, not them
The Lincoln A. c., according
to Mr.. Cobb and John Carter
advanced Louis $540 as its share
of $1,000, the cost of bringing
Louis here as per an agreement
with Harry Pace, of Chicago, a
distinguished colored Elk and
head of a life insurance company
The remainder of $1,000, accord
ing to the Lincoln A. c., was to
be borne by Elks and by the
District A. c.. which had lease
on the park for the day and even
ing Louis was to appear, and who
yielded his lease TO the Lincoln
A. C. for the consideration OF
10 per cent.
Louis claimed. on arrival in
Washington, that he knew moth
ing of his being scheduled tc
appear in a ring to be introduced
and a hasty, last-minute agree
ment that Louis was to get 2212
per cent of the net gate was con
CURED in by the principals, ano
according to Judge Cobb the mis-
understanding now is not whether
Louis is due 2212 per cent, but
from whom he is due that per
centage.
The Lincoln A. C. believes that
in that it put up it's $40 as its
share of the $1,000 agreement
with Pace to bring Louis here
it's obligation is discharged, but
meanwhile it is standing by
Louis to the extent of assisting
him in getting his just dues.

sat behind the steering wheel in
the car, and he was taking notes
of something which was coming
in over the radio.
Millicent tapped on the glass
partition in something of panic.
"All right" she said, "drive
on" :
"To Mills street," the driver
asked.

beauty parlor"
The driver nodded and grinned,
She thought for a moment that
he leered suggestively across the
street at the police car.
''In a hurry?" he asked.
Eyes" she said, and, despite
herself, her voice once more was
thin with fright.
The cab shot forward, slid
smoothly through the gears, and
turned at the corner. Millicent
strained her eyes through the
back window of the car, looking
to see if she was followed. She
knew now how a hunted thing
feels.
Too late she realized that the
cab driver was fully aware Of her
anxious scrutiny. His eyes were
reflected in the rear view mirror
as he watched her with cynical
appraisal.
Milicent whirled about and
! huddled herself in the seat. her
eyes fixed rigidly straight ahead.
She thought of the money her
strange friend had given her. She
was holding it clenched tightly in
her hand. She looked at it in sur
prise as she saw that the outer
bill was a 500 bill.
Slowly she counted the money.
There was $575 in bills of vary
ing denominations.
The cab driver swung the car
out of traffic, slowed cautiously
and crept in close to the curb.
"The BILL" he said, sis all paid,
and SOS the tip"
Millicent looked up and saw a
display window setting forth va
rious transformations. Across the
window, in gilt lettering, appear
ed the words, "Acme Beauty Par
lor."
The cab driver jumped back to
his position behind the wheel,
slammed the cab into low gear,
drove hurriedly away. Something
| in the very nature of his haste
made Millicent feel that he was
going upon some very deflme'
errand.
Her knees felt weak as she
realized that there was the posi-
bility he was returning to report
to the officers in that police car
or it might be that he was acting
under instructions to rejoin Mr.
Happ' at some rendezvous which
/ had been arranged in their wills
pered conversation.

how she looked, clutchlng rol

Miilicent goes out to dinner
promising to return. DrimpolJ
tells her to watch for a wom,n

sees such a woman. Later she
discovers that someone has taken
her purse, SUBSTITUTING one exact
ly like it. She goes back to The
tearoom, on the way meeting
MISUNDERSTANDING man of mid.

knows anything about Millicent's
purse.
She returns to Drimgold's office,
finds him dead. In panic she rush
es from the building, registers at
a hotel under an assumed name.
Next day she learns police are
searching for her. Again she sees
the MISUNDERSTANDING man she
met the night before. He tells her
mis- name is JARVIS HAPP and
that he wants to help her. Happ

The driver made a struggling
motion with his shoulders, as
though disclaiming all response

turned.
''Right back" she said, "to the
place where you let him off"
She could find no fault with the
speed with which the cab driver
sent the car back on its course.
1t seemed that within less than g
minute of the time her mysterious
escort had opened the door and
vanished, the cab had once more
pulled I'D to the curb on the OPP
posite side of the street.
She found no trace of the man
who had given the name of Jar

frightened intake of breath, she
recognized police car parked at
the opposite curb. 1t was one of
the cars of q. type equipped with
radio. carrying two plain-clothes
detectives. There was no distin-
gushing mark on the car, save
the police emblem which appeared
on the license, and the siren which
was moupnted on the front of the
car. But Millicent Graves had no.
