NEW YORK = Two impertinent black birds are all the Home Veloz and Yolanda have.
 They hang their hats just now in a suite at the Plaza hotel on Central Park But soon they'll be off to dance in London's gilt-edged night clubs. They'll hurry back to the Plaza, then on to Miami.
 That's the way they've lived the whole eight years they have been married. So they haven't a single stick of what other people call home; lounge-chairs, towels or pot ted ivy.
 They two blackbirds Cthey look like crows and chatter like parrots) fill the bill instead. Veloz and Yolan- da haul them everywhere in cages, equipped with hot water bottles to keep the temperature right. They call 'em "Schnuckle" and l"Gaby."
 "Schnuckle' waddles about look ing wise and croeking at Veloz. l"Nobody home. When do we go out?'
 We" don't go out much. Veloz and Yolanda are in the four-figures a-week salary class. There's only lone other pair of dancers who rate lsuch money. So the Veloz pair take very good care of their health.
 Met at Contest When they met they had no thought of spangled dresses for To- landa; now they confer for hours over such delicacies. She was a little Italian American high school girl who decided to try her luck at public dance contest in New York. Frank, the son of a Dutch mother and a Venezuelan father, was working in a credit office. He happened to enter the same dance contest.
 We met, danced together, and won all of three dollars: not three apiece, but three together" They chortle over that.
 You should see our collection Of cups-all tin," laughs Yolanda.
 Then we won so many prizes they barred us from contests" says Veloz We danced exhibitions, earned nothing, rode to the ball. rooms on subways. and had coffee and doughnuts afterward."
 Make Up Own Dances
 But they kept on until contracts came. Then they realized they had never taken a dancing lesson, and shuddered. The Apache dance was popular. They walked into a studio and put down $15 to learn it. Then another horrible truth dawn ed. They had made up so many dances that they couldn't learn any from anyone else. So they got a $1.50 refund That's the only les son. they ever took.
 They call their dances "routines.' , They pick up ideas for them any, where. For instance they went to see Frank Bucks Bring Elm Back Alive" and they were so entranced by the fight of the python and the tiger that they created the Cobra Tango" which they do now at the Plaza during dinner and the after theatre hour

Sports Tales
of other dQ11s

Aurelio Herrera and Jack Clifford were
the mixters. Herrera won on a knock
out in the ninth round. Two solid
punches caused Clifford to be through
for the night.
Those two Mexican wallops were the
only ones attempted by Herrera. For
eight rounds the Mexican never led
change. He was acting under instruc-
tons Of his manager, 'fBiddy" Bishop
Bishops strategy was designed to wear
down Clifford After eight rounds of
pummeling and wrestling, Jacks energy
was all spent. True, he won eight
rounds in a row.
Two Punches Enough
When Herrera went out to answer
the bell in the ninth, he was told by
S Surprised clifford E 3D. Walking from his
corner, with arms dangling, was wide
open for a wallop Herrera, a deadly
puncher, let one go. Clifford fell face
downward. The referee began his count.
The Mexican, thinking the bout was
over, was crawling through the ropes
when his seconds wildly pushed him
the call of 10. AS Jack regained his
feet, Herrera sent him down with
another Highlander. There was no
need for a count this time. Clifford
was through.
Fans who saw the match were
thoroughly disguised with Herrera's
style that night. It was sorry per-
Torrance to watch. The Mexican was
booed in every round. He was booed
when he won.
If two boxers were to put on SINH
lar exhibition in a Montana ring today,
the bout would never 60 the eight
round distance. One of them would be
tossed out of the ring by the referee

In recent weeks, New York boxing
crowds saw Bob Pastor and Johnny
Risko run and retreat around the ring,
with the purpose of staying the limit
with their opponents. Pastor made
track records when he fought Joe
Louis. His tactics became contagious,
for a few weeks afterwards. Babe Ris-
ko, in his bout with Freddie Steele,
bicycled out of harms way.

Rail Game on Big Butte

rival and there was enough for all who
owned liquid minds.

ball game could be played on the dizzy

capture long hits or to run bases.
Ground rules were agreed upon. The
regulations prescribed that overthrown
balls bouncing down the mount to the
foothills would go for only one extra

for home runs. There were six circuit
clouts during the game.
A dozen balls were used up. When
they were gone, scouting parties of
boys were sent to the foothills to re-
cover the spheroids. While the young

players fraternized at the refreshment

BUTTE's FAMOUS GRID WELLS
The ButteS, rated as one of the great
football teams of the country in 1888
81, the same club that played Omaha
A. c., Iowa State, Nebraska University,
oiym I club Of Gus San Fsancisco. and md
other wen-known teams Of that day
and time, had two yells that would
knock the visiting teams for loop
College and club teams had one yell
of either two, three or four lines. The
Buttes had four.line yell that was
measured eight lines, was a master
The yells of the Butte club and those
of various college teams were printed
on programs distributed at home games
of the Buttes. Local football fans were
and California University, as well as
the top notch athletic clubs, were woe
fully weak in the matter Of yells as
compared to the hymnals that were the
Buttes Here's the eight-line Butte yell
that was admittedly the best pep con-
coction of the 1895 season:
zullicum! Zullicum!
HE away no!
Tamarack! Tamarack!
Boom, bah DO!
Lacketah! Lacketah
Ia! ma! nd!
Butte City, Montana,
Rah! Rah! Rah!
When the Butte club was within
close proximity Of the opponents goal
line, the crowd would chorus sput-
tering four-line yell, repeating it for
minutes until the Buttes crossed the
goal line-or lost the ball. Here It Is:

College Cheers Brief Then
Yale, Princeton, Stanford and Cali
fornia U had nothing in their roper
toire to compare with those sizzling
Butte yells. In fact, the four big-time
colleges had only one yell each. Yale's
cheer was REPETITION of Rah's; STAN
ford fans recited all they had to say
in two lines; the best Princeton could
muster was little old three-liner and
that was the extent Of CALIFORNIA;
yell verse and urge.
