day of books and plays and Pete told her tales of newspaper tradi- ton, but never that his heart beat faster at the sound of her footfall or that shadow on her face was like Q cloud passing over him.
 Did Linda know? What woman wouldn't have known? She tried to pretend that 1t was not 90, that Pete was her friend, that their as- sCciation was to him what 1t was to hcr--a pleasant companionship' It was only when she spent those quiet, comforting evenings at home with Pete and his mother that corl- science smote her and she felt she was being unfair to him. But she had 50 little, she depended on him for 50 much that she could not let him go. And, since he did not tell her that he loved her, she couldn't say anything to let him know how she felt.
 For she had only Pete and her letters from Dix. The letters were few and like water one dreams one is drinking when one is thirsty, 1t did not quench the thirst. Dix loved Rome. He was studying with Gaetano. He thought he would try for Q singing role In a London production. Opera took too long. He had met some aEnus- ing Russians. He hoped she was "having Q good time." That was all. No more of caring for her. No mention of that last night. No word of the future.
 And yet Linda wrote her heart out to him and then tore up the letters. But finally her loneliness and love for him came to dominate her letters and on 6 cold bleak day, one of those october days that flaunts the coming death of the season, there came letter from Dix in answer to hers.

Tt was only Q few months ago, but 1t seems like years, Linda, and l think that we were caught up in an emotional wave with my leav. ing and all that. ! suppose you feel the some way.

fened her throat when she thought of Dix.
 The fortnight came to an end and she faced the future with no more hopes than she had had when she ran away from herself and her Job.
 But on that last night ct the Jennings, Linda laid her emotions and the facts she had to face out on the table of her mind. She was 20 and she loved Dix. Dix dld not love her and he had moved out of her life. Therefore, she would for. get hin.
 She would never, consciously, think of him again. He had be- ionged to her world, yet she would have joined him in any he might make for himself. But he did not want that. Linda was wiser than she knew. She decided to consider that done. Most girls would have hoped for tomorrow.
 And, when she had decided that she packed away her party clothes

 It didn't matter what else he said. He didn't intend to come back to Linda.
 The letter Linda burned, but not before she knew every phrase by heart and every phrase weighed on her heart like stones that pressed into her and surged up into her throat, bringing the tears to her eyes.
 She couldn't work. She had to work 1t out for herself, but she couldn't do 1t and keep her mind on her job. She asked for 6 vaca. ton and got it. Then she got out her party clothes, like countless girls before her, and, with new wave, 8 determined smile and Q heavy heart, set out to join Wilda ct the Jennings camp.
 There were boys on the party and music and gayety. It was like the good times that Linda used to have before Calvin Bourne Killed himself, and that part ot her life came to an end. Once more Linda had breakfast in bed and sat up far into the night, lis- tening to gossip with Wilda. She danced, played golf and joined irl the infantile games that were the rage that season. She won Q little money at bridge and lost 1t ct back gammon. She went for tramps ir the country and drives into town It was the life sine had once led and enjoyed, but now she nc longer enjoyed 1t. She played until she was tired, but she was never too tired to feel the ache that stif-

 And she had fun. Fun with Pete fardiner. One time they went to

She Arfayed them on the Inantel of the lhkary 90 that he could see them Afd review his prowess in fields not quite athletic. But they had thletics, too.

 Pete was ct the train.
 "0iad to see me? Miss Hne?" she asked, sincerely not meaning to be coquettish.
 Terribly" he said to both ques. ticns. "Are you glad to be backp"
 Terribly" she said, and for some reason tears glistened in her dark eyes.
 The tears did t. @Linda, w!u you marry mep" Pete said, mean- ing it but not meaning to say 1t.
 Suddenly Linda sew 50 many things. She saw how polished were his boots, how sTnartly pressed his old tweed suit. She sew the flor. ist's box in his hand and his heart in his eyes. She saw in Pete the mirror of herself as Dix must have seen her.

day, the fight was a reality. The men
fought for 500 a side. Waite won in
the 14th round without striking a blow.
In these modern days the specified
time for a boxing round is three min
in a round, or, if a bout is stopped by
the referee.
No Limit on Rounds
Back in the staid eighties, predecessor
to the gay nineties, a round could con-
sumo a few seconds, any number OF

A round ended when a man was

The touch of modernity that was in
jected into the Marquis OF Queensbury
rules in 1895, known as the Fair Play
Blanchard Sr., limiting rounds to three
minutes, with one minute of rest in

as revisions in football, basketball,

the Waite-Lynn match, the event was
an hour and 10 minutes of less dura-

No Admission Charged
But back to the fight, and the Incl
dents leading up to it. Waite enjoyed
a fistic reputation. He was the 49,
pound champion of Montana. Lynn. a
recent arrival in the camp from Colo
RADIO, also owned a ring record. The
men met On Main street about 10
o'clock on a fine August day and dis
cussed a ring meeting. Lynn, anxious
to leave for other fields on the NOR
row, suggested that they fight that
afternoon. Waite agreed. No thought
was given to gate receipts, as the men
agreed to fight for 500 a side. No ad-
mission was charged. A few citizens,
who were on the scene. agreed to take
charge of the necessary arrangements.
They would notify the fighters at noon
where the bout would take place.
The citizens circulated the news of
the approaching battle, and were in

Nothing daunted, the arrangement

Crowd Gathers At WoOdville
BY 3 o'clock the park road was lined
with hacks, surveys, carry-allS, men on
horseback and many pedestrians. A
few miles from Woodville, woodchoppers
cleared a space and n rope was
stretched over an area 20 feet square.
When the fighters arrived on the scene
they were surprised to find a large
delegation from Butte on hand, aug
mented by a good sized crowd of wood
choppers from WoOdville n Elk Park.
The fighters, stripped to the waist,
were loudly applauded as they entered
the ring. Two umpires and a referee
were chosen, and at 4.57 the fight was
First Round Went 1:15.1O

tails a newspaper of that day devoted
to the rounds:
"The first round was given princi-

blood. Many blows were exchanged and
it was an exciting as well as long round.
1.-The fighting for the next five rounds
was mostly devoted to spirited boxing
and appeared even, Waite going to the
floor twice and Lynn punched down
thrice.
I'm the sixth round Waite forced
the milling, repeatedly driving Lynn
to his corner, where the Colorado boy
finally ended the round by going down
from a blow, then crawled through the
ropes. Lynn resorted to this practice
in nearly every round until the final

Not Brutal, Just Protracted
when time was shouted for the
14th round, both men advanced to the
ring, then Lynn deliberately went to
the floor and laid down, refusing to
get up. Not a blow was struck. A foul
was claimed in favor of Waite, who was
declared the winner of the fight and
money. Going down without a blow
struck was nothing less than a foul, de-
liberately planned.
