COME day 1 am going to learn to
- say mo" in the manner of those
big personality boys whose square
while it looks as though am hooked
again. On the desk there is the reg
ular weekly assortment of invita-
tons to serve (gratis) on various
committees to name the sports
greats of the last eleven months.
Obviously, such task should only
be undertaken by those supremacy
confident that they are divinely
guided. With millions of boys and
girls straining muscles daily for the
sake of Alma Matters, or merely for
the fun of it, a lone mortars a suck
er for thinking he has chance to
guess right.
Nevertheless, having always been
a pushover for guessing games, 1
have been devoting the last two and
three-quarter minutes to the re-
quests. Herewith are the answers:
Best football player of the year
Clint Frank of Yale.
Best Eastern football team-Ford-
ham.
Best football team-Fordham.
Best amateur athlete Johnny
Goodman.
Five greatest athletes of the year
Henry Armstrong, Clint Frank,
Don Bulge, Charley Gehringer,
Johnny Goodman.

~ ers were overcome by their
own ineptitude, Madison Square
Garden was the biggest name in
the prize-fght business. Watching
the show at the st. Nicks the other
night and listening to the oldtim-
ers' gossip, was reminded, though,
of something. 1t is that boxing new
er could have prospered in New
York save through the diligent eff
forts of the small-club promoters.

were reborn. And in the girl the
hidden steel of the will he had not
been able to bend seemed melted,
and the curve of her body within his
arm was surrender without re-
serve.
They did not know how long they
lay together on the bunk that for
the time was not his, but theirs, in
that lonely and deserted house; and
he learned here that she was nei-
Their east nor west, but all woman.
A harsh, taut strain that had held
them for days seemed to slacken
and go out of the night, as if guns
and cattle were unimportant things;
and in that hour that was theirs
alone, one bitterness went out of
the world forever. 1t was not a
surprise, but contamination, when
presently he found that she was
asleep.
He picked her up and carried her
to her own room, and put her in
her own bed; and she smiled family
in her sleep as he kissed her eyes.
Then he walked out of the house,
by a different door than the one
where Coffee sat, and stood listen
ing to the still night.
Then, while his mind was entirely
away from hatred and violence for
the first time in a week, something
in the back of his mind found the
answer, and all in a moment he
saw through the tangle that had
roped the "a. He knew suddenly not
only who had killed Flagg at Short
Creek, but why Flagg had had more
than hunch that he was riding into
death; he knew why Marian had
been fired on; and he knew how he
could prove, inevitably and inescap-
ably, who had killed Bob Flagg-
and the taut strain of range war
came back into the night, turning
him cold.
Wheeler walked around the house
to where Old Man Coffee still sat.
AS far as the naked eye could OBJ
serve Old Man Coffee had not
changed his position; he could sit
like a rock or an Indian hours on
end, as if this were his natural way
of living out his life Wheeler sat
down slowly and stiffly on the step
beside the old man, he ran his
hands over his face, shook his head
like a fighter trying to clear away
the effects of killing right cross.
Coffee did not speak and for a lit
tie while Wheeler also sat silent,
trying to compute how much he
wished to say. Coffee" he said
at last, 81 see it. / see it ALL"
Coffee took his pipe out of his
mouth and looked at Wheeler. "All
what?"
81 know who fired on Marian"
Hell, son, you had that figured
out last time seen you, two hours
ago." Coffee glanced at the stars
which he used as a clock. 1.-TWO
hours and fifteen minutes" he cor
rected himself
81 had the wrong reason" Wheel
er said; "this time know. And
knowing that, ! know now why Bob
Flagg had forenotice that he was
near his end. And / can prove it
ALL"
Old Man Coffee started to say,
"You sound like you was full Of"
but he hesitated and studied Billy
Wheeler sidelong through the thin
dark. Answer m, one thing, son."
he said at last "What was the thing
that showed you the killer trail?"
"It was two things, Coffee"
Wheeler said; mot one Two kind
of trivial-looking things, that ! knew

warren OFFICERS
WILL FACE COURT
Grand Jury Indicts Register
of Deeds and County
Commissioners

Warrenton, May 21.-The county
commissioners and the register of
deeds of Warren County were indict
ed by the grand jury yesterday after
noon for failure to comply with re-
concentrations made by former
grand juries.
This action was taken by the in
vestigating body after Judge Henry
A. Grady, presiding over the May
term of Superior Court, had instruct
ed Solicitor w. H. S. Burgwyn to draw
up bills of indictment against the
county officials for their failure to
comply with recommendations set
forth in former grand jury reports.
Members of the grand jury had com
pleted their investigation and filed
into the court room to submit their
report, asking to be excused, when
Judge Grady, upon learning that the
former recommendations had not been
carried out, ordered the solicitor to
draw up bills against the officers and
told members of the grand jury that
they could not be excused until they
passed upon the bills.
The charge against the commission
ers comes chiefly for their failure to
make improvement at the county Jail,
which has been termed unsafe, I'M
sanitary and inadequate" by several
grand juries. The charge against Reg
lister of Deeds Joseph G. Powell, is
malfeasance in office.
At the January term of court the
grand jury recommended that Mr..
Powell conduct his office in the flu
ture with more dignity and with dig
nifty expected of his office"
The grand jury report of this court
stated "that Mr.. Powell has not con-
Quoted his office nor himself with the
dignity expected of a public official
as recommended by the last grand
jury"
In commenting on the action of the
grand jury, William H. Burroughs,
chairman of the board of commission
ers, stated that efforts had been under
way for many months to carry out
the recommendations of former grand
juries in regard to the Jail, but that
the project had been held up due to
the fact that the board desires to get
Federal aid in order to save taxpayers
of this county money and that there
had been considerable loss of time in
getting the project approved.
Other members of the board are
r. L. Capps, John Clay Powell, Sam
King and L. H. Wall.

MARITIME LABOR
BOARD PREDICTED
Mediation Unit May Be
Urged by Merchant Ma
rine Officials.
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
The Maritime Commission may ad-
vocate creation of mediation board
IN informed person said today. as the
best means of settling labor troubles
In the American merchant marine.
The board. if authorized, would be
fashioned along the lines of the Ma
tional Mediation Board which an
nually settles scores of disputes be-
tween railway labor and management
The recommendation may be con-
tanned in a report by the commission
next Monday on all phases of mer-
chant marine development. The con-
clusions will be designed to guide the
expenditure of millions of dollars in
Government aid.
Would Avoid Labor Troubles.
The men making the report are
known to believe that one of the first
obstacles they must remove in order
to safeguard this heavy Federal in
vestment is that of labor upheavals in
the shipping industry.
Joseph P. Kennedy, chairman of
the commission, recently described
labor conditions in the industry as
very bad. He suggested informally
that authority over labor should be
concentrated somewhere"
Bill Last Session.
A bill for a maritime mediation
board was introduced at the last ses-
sion Of Congress. 1t provided for a
large membership, including labor and
employer representation. When OBJ
lection was raised to the type of board
proposed, the bill was rewritten. but
did not go beyond committee con-
sideration.
This revised bill, it was learned au-
thoritatively, probably will be the basis
Tor more determined efforts next ses-
sion. Like the railway labor act. it
provides for small, bipartisan board,
voluntary submission of labor disputes
and system of adjustment boards to
have original jurisdiction over the dis
putes.
