ORLANDO, Fla, Feb. l. UP)-A
lover of chicken fighting ever since
l was a child and had to remove set
ting hens off the nest for mama, !
came to Orlando yesterday hoping
to attend the 18th annual national
cock-fight tournament.
had heard that the Orlando
fights were the best in the United
States with the finest roosters flail-
ing their spurs for prizes in excess of
$4,000. Even before I left New
York, two months ago, I was tipped
that nothing I could see in Florida
during the winter would afford the
drama and thrills of the Orlando.
1t was a shame that such a vivid
picture Of the fights was painted 20
me because, much to my disappoint-
ment, found that during cock fight
time, Orlando regards a visiting
newspaperman a combination of Ty-
phoid Mary, Attilla the Hun, Bene-
dict Arnold, and the -Four Horse
men of the Apocalypse riding side
saddle.
I saw tickets to the fights, but 1
couldn't buy them. talked to men
who had been to the fights, but not
one could remember where they were
held.
BY midafternoon I Wearied of the
search and decided to spend the rest
of the day sightseeing. As I drove
along an outlying road, drinking in
the beauties of the scrub palmetto
and pine flats, I spotted a uniform

The steel-legged kansas runner
who has won two races this season,
both of which developed controver-
sial aftermaths, hopes to win clear

urday night in Boston.

road
AS I slowed down to pass him, he
yelled:
Looking for the fights, Mister?'
I couldn't believe my ears. With
all the secrecy, there was a brightly
garbed messenger stationed in the
middle of the road to direct stran-
gers to the jousting round.
But that's what he had yelled, and
he knew where they were.
1 turned off the highway on a
muddy, winding road, and headed
into the woods. Soon I heard the
ROSTERS calling their defiance and
a quarter mile further on, tucked
snugly in a thicket, was the game
club. No fewer than $50 cars were
parked about the canvaS-sided pa
vilion which held the battle ring.
From the pavilion came The sounds
SO familiar to cock-fight followers.
The yells, the laughs, the shrill cry
OF the fighters, the drumming of
wings.
l had no sooner parked than a
gentleman walked over, and giving
me a most intensive stare, inquired:
You're Henry McLemore, aren't
you?"
His tone left no doubt that he
meant for me to come next leap
year.
So, not wanting to start the fights
all over again, went back to town
and contented myself with a chicken
on plate, with lot of stuffing and
gravy.

for Thu sday's mat bouts.
Only the most faithful believer
in the bone bending game will be
surprised TO learn that the big
bad man who "brutally" attacked
his curry headed foe in the ring
last week and caused a near riot
will be brought back for action
this week.
Last weeks wrestling hoax was
carried out i'm a better fashion
than they do il at the Olympic
in Los Angeles. 1t was a natural.
In the first place Jack Howland.
who has appeared on every mat
card this winter at the arena and
who is well liked among followers
of the game, was the victim" of
this Black Knights attacks. This
naturally aroused the ire of fans.
In the second place Referee Bill
TaCkett, who is a California high
way patrolman, when not third
man in the wrestling ring. raised
Knights arm in victory when cur
ly-headed Rowland was unable
TO resume the battle after suffer-
ing the terrible foul tactics"
used by Knight. This decision on
the part of Tackett brought fans
&c their feet. Then, TO carry on
the show, knight walked up 10
the suffering Howland who was
supporting himself on the ropes
and gave him a olOut in the puss.
Bill Tackett then gave the
masked william" a pop on the
side of the face. Then TO the
amazement of all. Knight caught
TaCkett with haymaker to the
jaw. At this pcint fans began
surging into the ring. Ell Centre
police stepped in to make the
picture complete and subdue the
crowd. So what! Things of this
sort are daily occurrence from
coast tc coast wherever the behe-
moths put on their song and
dance. It's such affairs as that
pulled off here last week that
keep the dough rolling into the
Golfers of the graphing brasshats.
There is probably one grave fac
tor here which discOurages such
melees on the part of the grap-
piers. Up and down the coast the
promoters usually have erstwhile
wrestlers to referee matches. This
has the same effect as putting
three of the actors into the ring
at Once-a grand time is had hg

won't play ball with the boys.
When Bill swings at them they
know they have been swung at.
Big Bill clipped the masked man
last week with such gusto that
il didn't take any acting ability
on the part of the grappler to
hit the canvas in none too con-
servative way. 1t was real blood |
that trickled out of the williams"
mouth.
Knight ''by popular demand"
will be back Thursday and fans
will probably jam the arena to see
him do il all over again. HO-hum,

corridor, too. She put her arm
around the violent shaking girl
Her own hysteria had passed, and
she was calm again. Leave her to
me, please, Donald" she said
"And I think, a Sedative-"
It was then that the under
standing, the friendship that was
more than friendship, came to be-
ing between Donald Latham and
Christine.
Something about the way he
talked to her, not "shushing" her,
not giving her false hope. Just
understanding.
IT know" he said. II know be-
cause I'd feel that way, too. I am
afraid it won't do much good, but
at least well know that we did
everything. And there's always a
chance, you know - always a
chance"
So the new doctors came, -Four
Of them. Four distinguished men.
They said evasive, soothing
things. Nettie listened gratefully
But the young doctor took
Christie out to them.
"I know she'd rather have the
truth" he said, and he held her
hand in his when the eldest OF
them shook his head and said,
"I'm sorry, my dear. I think
two or three dayS-at most"
The girls took Nettie home.
She was worn, and i'll.
Christie stayed. She sat with
her hands in her lap, looking out
Of the window, into the dark.
She tried to think, to plan, to
think of one little thing that
could be done for him, but no
thoughts came.
Sometimes she held Adolphus'
limp, hot hand in hers, sometimes
she tried to whisper to him, but
he had gone where she could not
reach him. Already, she was
alone. Except for Gene...
It was selfish to want Gene so
badly, to think Of herself and
her own need for comfort and
love, when her father lay dying.
When she could bear it no
longer she went downstairs to the
telephone booth, put in a long
distance call for him.
They couldn't locate him, so
she hung UP and hurried, con-
science-stricken, back to the sick
room.
There was no change.
Toward midnight she went
downstairs again, sent him a tele-
gram asking him to come. She
was a little ashamed of her weak
ness, but he was her only friend,
he could not fail her now, and he
wouldn't, when he knew.
All that night she sat by the
window, and just before morning
when her eyes had closed from
WEAKNESS, the nurse spoke. II
think he'll know you now, Miss
Cooper"
Light had come back to the
glazed. unseeing eyes. The dying
man sat up in bed. "Still with
us. eh, baby?"
He showed no surprise that she
should be there. Maybe he had
forgotten that she had been away.
"Dad-dad, darling, I'll stay
with you always-Ill-"
There, there-take it easy,
take it-eaSy-"
The light went out, he sank
back in the nurses arms, and
just as the first THU yellow SUM-
light slanted through the win
dow, with Donald Latham on one
side and Christie on the other,
he died.
Died without a will.
But Christie didn't know it, and
at that time she wouldn't have
cared. She only knew that he
was gone forever, and no one
would ever, ever take his place.
Gene sent flowers.
Aunt Nettie looked at the card,
smiled tearfully.
Gene Dubois-that's the old
man that kept the dairy. I never
did feel it was clean, but poor
soul! Think Of him sending to
the city for flowers!"
Nettie thought that Gene was
old Pete, his father.
Now that AdolphuS was dead.
