arms length of her. And framed
in it now were two Of the most
frightening faces she had ever
seen.
Savage, masculine faces thew
were; men Of almost black skin.
whose features were fierce and
whose hair was a long uncombed
scraggle. They had singularly
penetrating eyes.
"Wh-who are you?" asked
Ellen, when she had stared at them
a moment. They made no reply.
They only gripped the metal bars
and glared back. She could not
fathOm the expression they bore,
save to know that it was frighten-
ing. III at ease, she moved on
away from them, remembering
then that they probably were the
Yaqui Indian prisoners that Felix
Montoya had brought in.
This gave her topic for specu-
lation. She wished there was
someone to talk to about it, but
Of those on the premises now only
she spoke a word of English. What
had these Yaquis done? Why
were they being held here, instead
Of in jail? What would happen
to them? Her imagination con-
jured up all sorts Of things, vague
bits she had read or heard about
violence in old Mexico. Weren't
there revolutions and things down
here? She wished Bill Baron were
present.
Bill and Pamela had ridden
away about 9 o'clock, and while
nothing was said about it, Ellen
assumed that they were to return
in ample time for lunch. Around
IL o'clock she began watching for
them.
Toward one o'clock there was
some stirring Of activity around
the big rambling building, and
after a bit Don Julio Montoya rode
up. When he came into the living
room and greeted Ellen, he sug-
gested that he escort her in to the
dining table. Sonora Montoya was
found already seated, alone.
The meal was well prepared and
served, but the conversation was
limited. To begin with, only Don
Julio would try to speak any Eng
lish at all, and Ellen knew no
Spanish. His talk was necessarily
broken. Ellen wanted to inquire
about Pamela and Bill Baron, but
was not sure either Of the pro-
prieties or Of the words to use.
She decided to say nothing.
When the suggestion of. a siesta
was made after the meal, she went
to her room. She did not lie down,
though. She felt quite depressed,
without any very definite reason.
In mid-afternoon she walked
through the patio into the living
room again and there encountered
Sonora Montoya. This elderly lady
did not smile now. Her face was

that a second 15-year-old Negro boy

A decision in the Smith mercy ap-

Leading Possibilities

LONDON, July IA Q.N.S0.
Finland and England today be-
came leading possibilities-but not
probabilities the scene of the
1910 Olympic games.
Now that Japan has dropped
them, an emergency meeting OF
the international Olympic execu-
tive committee will probably be
called, said Baron Aberdare, com
mittee member.
Finland will undoubtedly be
approached" said Lord Aber-
dare, but due to the ShortneSS
of time. it is very doubtful that
she will be willing to take on
the task.
IF that falls through. there
is possibility that London may
be chosen. But London, also, is
unenthusiastic, since it would
spoil her chance of making q
big spread in 1914"
Tokyo was well advised" tt
drop the games, he said, as pool
representation would rob the
Japan meet of international sig
nificance.

This led to the showdown meet.

sity of mobilizing the nations en-
tire resources for successful prose
cution of the Chinese campaign.
Foreign observers took that
comment skeptically because, in
the first place, general approval
was announced before the public
even knew about the decision;
moreover, the games had received
such a buildup for years that the
public was keenly interested, and
cancellation comes as a blow to
national pride.
The ministry of public welfare
controls all sports activities
throughout Japan. Marquis KIDD,
it was believed, informed the cabi-
net not only that the cost of Spon-
soring the athletic contests would
be too great for war-burdened
Japan to bear, but that the actual
materials such as steel and con-
crete essential for building a
stadium and other necessary
structures were lacking.
Especially in the United States
and Great Britain, scheduling OF
the 1910 games raised a storm OF
protest almost equal to that pre-
ceding the 1896 Berlin OlympicS.
In May, DR.. G. R. Manning re-
signed from the American Olym-
pic committee in protest against
holding the contests in Japan.
Until today, japanese authori-
ties kept protesting that, war or
no war, the Olympics would be
run off as scheduled in Tokyo.
AS late as April construction of
stadium was authorized. Con-
tribution of $1,500,OO0 by the gov
ernment to aid the games was
promised.
Another American objection to
the Tokyo schedule was the deci-
sion last spring to hold the games
in September, which would, it
was felt, bar many American ath-
letes attending college.

ing tales. Reilly didn't want the
match in the first place and Just
before Routis got his instructions
from the referee, Reilly disap.
peared. AS Routis looked across
the ring before the opening gong
he saw Reilly in Battalino's cor.
ner. Pete had bought Bats con.
tract just before the fight!
Battalino won the title then
quit when he outgrew the divi
sion. Reilly next managed Fred.
die Miller, who was generally rec.
ognized as champion, and when
Freddie lost to Pete Sarron, there
were rumors that Reilly was "in''

So maybe The Old Fox" will
