FAMOUS KERRY
 MATMAN MEETS H HUANIAN N
Fine Four Bout Program Also to Show Finkle-
 stein, Jewish Star
By JOHN A. CLUNEY

Promoter George Mulligan will have another fling at putting over" professional wrestling in Waterbury and this time gets of to a flying start by securing one of the most colorful and at the same time most able matmen tri the world today Steve "Crusher" Casey of County Kerry, Ireland, if you pleasel Crap bling experts insist that Danno Ma honey does not belong in the same ring with Casey, who meets Billy Bartush of Chicago, @ Lithuanian American in tho main go of a four bout bill that ought to provide some slick entertainment from the time the first pair come together at 8:30 D. m. or thereabouts.
 Knows His Stuff
 Casey, who features the now fa- nous Killarney Whip" could throw O'Mahoney three times in an hour, his packers claim, despite the fact that Danno has turned out to be quite wrestler, too, the pair of rough and ready Irishnen having made about $200,000 between them within 0 two year period. AS for Baftush, Casey's opponent tonight, those who remember him in this city three years ago, when he was billed from the University of Chicago, know him to be a wrestler who real- ly can "go to town" on the best of opposition, though he will have his troubles trying to pin the brawny shoulders of the Crusher. On paper, the match figures to be very much of @ crowd pleaser.
 Flnklestein Favored
 Harry Finklestein of New York will find favor among the local Jew ish fans who like the mat sport, for he is rated well able to take care of himself under any and all condi- tions, one of which will be Joe Rae, 6 Canadian with @ bone-breaking complex. Finklestein has already es- abolished himself as crowd-pleasef in New York and Boston rings for he knows his toeholds and head locks well.
 Hans Bauer of Germany and Steve Hanley of Ireland are hooked up for a time limit presentation which fig- ures to be entertaining enough while the opening bout will bring together Tony Lorenzo, eX-Catholic Univer- sity footballer and Martin Marshall of Scotland, begorryl Action gets under way at the usual hour with a pleasant evening assured everyone in attendance, most of whom have never seen Crusher Casey in action on the mat.

lately they've made arrangements to

Sonny" also junior and the son Of
George Ferris, first went into business
together last Summer. Brother"

few doors away.
New at the game last year, and not
so serious about it, they, nevertheless,
netted a profit of about IS at the
end of the season.
This year, however business is much
better

we're making lots OF money.
If the weather's bad we might not
take in more than SIS cents a week,
but when things are going right We
make as high as SO. Our average is
about $3.50"
AS business grows, the young pro-
prietors are constantly on the look
out for means of improvement.
Their original equipment was a little
shoe shine cabinet Brothers" father
had around the house. Brushes and
polish at first we're supplied by their
families.
NOW, besides adding suede polish
to their supplies. they have con-
trived handmade footrest of wood

their shoes. An orange crate has been
altered slightly to make an improvised

that audiences won't bite.
MY mother once told me it would
be all right to be afraid Of lion
or something like that" she said, but
to be afraid OF people-why that's
terrible"
With this philosophy to guide her,
Betty Jane has developed into q
favorite entertainer at school and
church groups. And, as one woman
expressed it, people appreciate her
all the more for her willingness to
take part whenever she's asked"
Betty, whose parents are Mr. and
Mrs. ]. J. Owen OF TAO North Capitol

the United Brethren Church AS

From an extensive repertoire Of
readings for varied public occasions,
she thinks the most popular probably
is the Powder Puff" by Edgar Guest,

Betty also finds that little poems
written by her mother are favorites.
Mrs. Owen, who is something OF a
poet, frequently is asked to write
verses for special occasions, and when
these have surprise ending-as they
frequently do-they are especially well
received, the young speaker said.
Though she has never studied pub

Racket May
Be Used for
Live Games
Stunts Provide Fun
With Chance for
Much Ingenuity.
BY RAY ]. MARTIN.


MANY entertaining games may be
AVA originated with a tennis racket
and an old tennis ball. Several of
these stunts are suggested, and they
may give you ideas for others.
Balloon tennis is played by attach
ing toy balloon to tennis ball with
a heavy string, then batting the ball
back and forth across the net. With
this arrangement the ball does not
always go in the direction hit.
Tethered ball is played by attaching
a tennis ball to revolving arm pivoted
on post. Keeping the ball going
around and around calls for expert
use of the racket.
Ring tennis is played by batting
ball through large ring formed from
heavy wire and mounted on a tall
base. 1t takes a good aim TO bat the
ball through the ring at every stroke.
Bounce-back ball can be made by
attaching tennis ball to the racket
with long rubber string cut from an
old inner tube.
A form of shuttlecock may be played
by placing several chicken feathers in
an old tennis ball, then batting the
ball back and forth over net.
For real snappy play. attach tennis
ball to wire strung between two trees,
or tree and a post, with long rubber
string cut from an old inner tube.
When the ball Is hit, the rubber string
snaps it back very quickly, and makes
the player step lively to keep the ball
going.

her son is a genius, his family has
always given him, as he expressed it,
"a free hand in everything he wanted
to do in the artistic line"
His first study of art began about
four years ago at the Langley Junior
High School and at the Boys Club
at $50 C street.
Later, at Central High School, he
took up major art" and during his
course there attention was focused
on his work when he won fourth
prize in national contest sponsored
by magazine.
HE COMPLETED his high school
course at IS years of age and
won the opportunity to study at the
Corcoran after submitting a portfolio
of drawings in contest to select
two public school students for schol-
arships
Now that he's definitely on the
road to making art his life work,
Peter has decided that he wants to
be an illustrator for magazines and
books
He likes storytelling pictures, he
said, and character studies.
An example of the latter is in
cluded in an old portrait he did for1
the Boys Club exhibit-the likeness
Of a Chinese boy who is a member
Of the club.
A water color of John Silver" also
on display at the club, is typical Of
blood and thunder type of draw
ing he also enjoys.
A FONDNESS for history and liter
allure. evident throughout his
school work-"though I was always
called down for drawing in school,
even in the classes liked"-promises
to be an asset for his ambition as
an illustrator.
His approach In his work at the
Corcoran Is Intelligent, imaginative
and alive" according to the princi-
pal, Richard Leahy, who judged the
exhibits at the Boys Club for the
New York selection.
But Peter, looking over his work,
finds it far from perfect. Il don't
think it's 80 good" he said, but
I'll keep on trying"

Royal Pets
For Rulers
OF Brit0ns
Animals and Birds in
Palaces Offer Much
Diversion.
BY ARTHUR NETTLETON.

By ARTHUR NE llLEl ON.
X ING GEORGE vi, who is to be
crowned the British sovereign on
next Tuesday, May IL, is not too
royal" to be interested in pets. Like
his father, the late King George v,
he is a keen lover OF animals. The
British royal palaces, indeed, house
several kinds of animals and birds.
They are pets of the royal children,
Princess Elizabeth and Princess Mar
garet Rose, too.
Yellow Labrador dogs are special
favorites OF King George. When he
was Duke of York, he had several OF
these dogs in his country home, Royal
Lodge, near Windsor Castle.
There were also few Welsh Corgies
smaller dogs, with which the
princesses could play. Princess Eliza
beth at Royal Lodge had two risky
pets which her father and mother,
now King and Queen, brought back
with them when they returned from
q visit to Australia in 1927.
At Sandringham House, in Norfolk,
are special kennels where the British
sovereign keeps more valuable dogs.
Many important prizes have been won
by these animals-particularly by
three Clumber Spaniels, called Sand
bingham Swirl" "Sandringham Spark"
and "Sandringnam Straggler'
In the grounds of the estate are
buried several favorite dogs of British
royalty, each pet being given little
grave stone. There are stones in
memory of Snip" Cairn terrier;
Happy" wire-haired fox terrier;
and Jack" a Sealyham terrier-all
one time pets Of the late King George.
Queen Elizabeth is keen dog lover,
too. Her home was one Of the first in
Great Britain to have a Zion" dog
a small. shaggy type, golden brown
in color and rather like the old English
sheepdog.
The Duke of Kent (King Georges
youngest brother) is fond OF Great
Danes, chiefly because these dogs
are dignified and very intelligent.
But the duke also has an Alsatian
wolf-hound, which he calls Lion"
Though the automobile has largely
displaced the horse for ordinary travel
purposes, the royal palaces Of Great
Britain still have several fine horses,
for use when the King goes riding In
private, or for professional occasions.
Brownie" Is a horse that carried
King George v many times, and
he has appeared in professions on
numerous state occasions. He Is SO
we'll trained and intelligent that he
has never been known to trot when he
ought to have walked, and he has
never SHE'D at cheering crowds.
Then there is "Anzac," horse now
in retirement. He gave his last ride
to royalty in 1880, and is now enjoying
q well-earned and permanent rest.
At Buckingham Palace are also some
rare birds in aviary. Two of these are
probably the only birds of their kind
in Great Britain, apart from those in
the London Zoo.
A laxative parrot is housed in this
royal residence, too, but when state
secrets are being discussed he is taken
out Of the room, for 1t is said that on q
past occasion . royal parrot repeated q
court secret and caused some trouble

to stay on without falling he let me
try riding by myself for while and
I went quite some distance At last l
wanted to turn around, but I found
I couldn't make the turn, but went
straight toward the Basin.
Just as the bicycle was going over
the wall I saw an overhanging limb
and caught hold of it and hung on
with my feet in the water.
my father couldn't get to me in
time, but another man was nearby
and he pulled me out. They also
had to fish the bicycle out Of the
water.
Luckily, I received only a bump
on the head and few bruises, besides
getting my legs wet, but I was thank
full I did not fall in with the bicycle
or I might have drowned.
