entered. The elderly Queen turned
now and then to admonish the
children who fidgeted like any
other children.
The Archbishop of Canterbury's
presentation of the King to his
people was marvellously colorful
but politically disappointing. -Four
times the primate, addressing the
four corner of the abey, said, in
effect: Here's George-do you
want him for your King?"
Each time, according to the
printed book of rules given tc
each of the 7,700 spectators
everybody should shout, God
save King George!"
Shouts Feeble
But only a feeble shout went
up, mostly from the professional
choir boys.
George answered Canterbury
questions with a voice that was
barely loud enough to be heard
in the press gallery, and maud
BILE in most of the Abbey.
Reads Slowly
Queen Elizabeth watched her
husband kneel and kiss the altar
and Bible, then return to the recog
milton chair, to read and sign the
oath. He read extremely slowly,
pronouncing each word separately,
and pausing between each.
During the lengthy communion
service following the oath, King
George was supported by two
bishops, including the Bishop of
Bradford-whose comments on
King Edwards Wits private life
caused the abdication storm to
break over England.
Kneeling for 10 minutes at a
time was not too agreeable to the
royal pair. Both, after half an
hour, began to suffer beneath the
weight of their enormous robes
Through glasses one could see
perspiration on their brows.

ing homage to the King.
The aged Viscount Falkland
could not negotiate his robe and
tripped and fell just as he reached
the Kings feet.
Two bishops helped him up and
he managed to get down the
stairs from the throne. But he
was so disturbed by his gaucherie
that he forgot to replace his coro-
net.
All this time Queen Elizabeth
sat in her royal purple robes sur

beautiful train-bearers in pearl

Sixteen dukes and marquesseS

to the altar in stately procession

They then marched with great

FULLER FLOORS

IN FIRST ROUND
italian Surprises Fans;
First Full Count for
Loser in II Years

Boston, February 10. - CUP -
With his long feud with Andy Cal
lal1an Of Lawrence settled when he
scored a surprising one-round
knockout victory over him last night,
Sammy Fuller Of Chelsea was look
ing for new opponents today to de-
termine whether he would continue
his comeback after a nearly two
year layoff from the ring.
Returning to the square circle
only when the embers Of five-year
grudge famed anew a month ago,
Fuller roored Callahan with a right
to the jaw two minutes after the
opening bell, and knocked him cold
with a similar punch 80 seconds
later. The first knockdown dazed
Callahan, and though he rose at the
count OF nine and withstood a two
listed pummeling Immediately after,
he went down and out when the sec
ond right crashed flush on his Jew.
It was the first time In Gala
hans ll-year boxing career that ne
has taken the full count. In Tour
previous battles dating from 1880,
Callahan had won three decisions
over Fuller, while last nights VIC
tor could only exc out one.
Fuller's retirement nearly TWO
years ago followed his defeat IN a
New York bout which would have
resulted in q crack at the light
weight championship had he won.

Date Mixup Latest Angle F.;

United Press Staff Correspondent

(Untted Press Staff correspondent
New Britain, Conn, February 10.
-(UP) - A crisis in favorable ath-
letic relations between New Britain
and Meriden high schools was
reached this week, but 1t seemed
likely today that 1t would go with
the wind.
II don't think anything will come
Of It," Coach Chick" Shea OF New
Britain, predicted, although he adj
mitted relations between the two
central Connecticut schools, always
strong rivals, were near the break
point.
It so happened that New Britain
had Meriden on Its basketball
schedule for two games, one last
night and the other February 20.
The first was scheduled for Mer-
iden and the return game was to be
played here. Since yesterday was
Lincoln's birthday, the Stanley arena
was unoccupied and Coach Shea
figured Meriden would change dates
and play the first game in New
Britain instead Of at Mertden. The
Stanley arena Is engaged for Feb
ruary 20.
The reply was no.
"It's Picayune," Shea commented.
Football games between the two
schools have not been scheduled for
next season because Of Meriden's
request that they be left off the
New Britain schedule.
Denying he would break with Mer-
iden In basketball, Shea said fric-
ton over dates occur among schools
"all the time" and that this was one
case which has come out into the
open.
II don't think anything will
happen" he said.
