The Plain

Dear M. Antheil: Viii! you
tell me if there are any fellows
who can Judge a girls char.
Acter and are not so enamored
BY facial beauty that character
escapes them?
II have a very beautiful SIS
ter. She has boy friends by the
carload. Believe me, it is some
thing to try to keep up in such
a popularity race. I am not
homely but am plain. When my
sister won her first beauty
contest years ago, I decided l
would have to do something
about it. So I have studied
clothes, colorS, makeup, hair
style, poise and mannerisms-
In fact, everything that would
improve my appearance. l have
done a pretty good job.
Il do have some dates and
several boy friends. But I have
been hurt deeply by a few who
dropped me after meeting my
sister. After that they hung
around waiting to meet my SIS
ter.
I'VE are both in our early
twenties. I am not concerted
but I do think 1 have more per-
sonality, as she won't put her.

amusing. Then she has violent
fits of temper. That brings me
back to my question: Does a
fellow want character or phySl-

Boys want both beauty ana
character if they can get them.
You seem to have Sensed that
and have made yourself as
beautiful as possible and have
also developed your character.
In a way you are far better off
than your sister who hasn't
taken the trouble to be anything
but beautiful. Her beauty Will
fade, then she won't have any
thing.
Why don't you just let her
have the boys who desert you?
They aren't worth holding, are
they?
The boys who flock AROUND
her don't seem to want to marry
her or she would now be out 2t
the way. 1t is quite natural Tor
young boys to 60 for beauty.
It is so wonderful to look upon
and you can't blame them.
1t is disloyal of them to desert
your fine character. But, after
all, character doesn't show i'm

beautiful you really are.
Aren't Jealous,

Or do you suppose that your
character is a bit bilious looking
because of the jealousy you SUI

Maybe beautiful sister is
spoiled and pampered and so
grows an ugly character while
her face grows fairer and fairar.
The other sister has to fall
back on her own resources to
get what she wants, so devel-

the end he was very weak. In the Hath Krieger dropped him to his knees with sharp left hook to the jaw but he was back on his feet at the count of two.
 Behind on points, Al tried desper- ately for knockout in the closing rounds, but all his steam had been exhausted. Hostak,s left hand ap- parently was hurt in the 11th round when he hit Krieger in the head. He never swung his left after that blow. His seconds said he com plained of his right hand hurting him after the fourth.
 According to an agreement made with Promoter Nate Druxman be- fore the match Krieger agreed to give Hostak first chance at the title under Druxman's promotion.
 Although Krieger is only 26 years old, he had been regarded as virtua- ally washed ID in the east. He had been beaten twice by Fred Apostoli, the San Francisco Bellhop who won No. challenger recognition in New York by knocking out Steel while still holding the title. Kreiger's weight rose to nearly 19O pounds, and 1t was only by an unceasing vigil that Hynie Coplin successfully got his man down to the middle weight limit for this fight.

One of the best bouts of the ill- door season is figured to take place when Frenchy LaRue and Tony Martinelli tangle in one of five bouts tomorrow night at the week. ly Waterbury A. c. wrestling card at Buckingham Hall. Martinelli, one of three wrestling brothers put on a great bout with Jackie James the Greek, two weeks ago, and against the strong man LaRue, he should be even more impressive.
 Maurice Leo Covell, local favorite for two years will be seen in a spe- cial bout with Tony Milano, an att traction that should bring out the French Canadian customers from the south end. The main bout, fea- turing James and Pat Corrigan is in a class by itself as an attraction while Angelo Leone and Tony Siano are apt to provide the best action of anything on the card. Action is scheduled, as usual for 8:30 p. m.

Danbury Trojans, Bristol Ends
 |Clash Sunday

Danbury, Nov. 2-(SpeciaD-Tht clash of two old and bitter football foes will take place Sunday after noon at Lee Stadium when tht Danbury Trojans and the Bristo West Ends collide in battle that will help decide the state and New England professional championship A capacity throng of 5000 specta- tors is expected to attend the game, 1900 more than saw the Trojans eke out close victory over Bristol in the first tiissle of the series two weeks ago.
 Now, as on that memorable oc- casion when Red Negri's talented toe booted the only points of the game and gave the Matters a S-0 triumph, the Trojans will depend on their accurate placement kicker If the battle resolves into 8 strug- gle between two hard charging for ward walls, Negri's aid will be well come. But Coach Jack Thompson of the home club expects the West Ends to shoot the works Sunday and anticipates a high scoring struggle between two hard charg- ing forward walls, Negris aid will be welcome. But Coach Jack Thompson of the home club ex- poets the West Ends to shoot the works Sunday and anticipates a high scoring struggle that will be highly entertaining to the fans.
 On Their Game
 The Danbury offense really be- gan to click during the Booster Day victory over the New Rochelle Bull dogs. With Thompson tossing bull let passes from close to the line of scrimmage and Tommy Guinea running wild for two touchdowns, the Trojans ,downed their Vest chester County foes by a 27-7 tal- ly. Guinea's sensational ball toting has stamped him as the best ground gainer ever to show at Lee Stadium. The lad has developed into a star and is being hailed as better than Ike Kern was when Ike was at his best.
 The Hat City eleven has one major ambition and that is to drub the Bristol club soundly. Meinor- ies of last years finale which the West Ends won by a 19-0 score still rankle in Danbury, and the aim here is to wipe out that blotch on the Trojan record.
 The opening kickoff is scheduled for 2:15.

Shore Leaues
 Boston Bruins

Boston, Nov. D. (UP) = Eddie Shore, star defense man of the Bos- ton Bruins, National Hockey league champions, was listed as 8 holdout today.
 Manager Art Ross said last night that the case of Shore, who failed to accompany the team when it left for its opening game at Toronto, would be referred today by Presi- dent Weston Adams to Frank Cald- CT, president of the league.
 Shore said he was asking for a raise and that is the cause of the holdout trouble.
 1.-TWO years ago after I was hurt I took a cut in pay" he said. T think I am worth it after my work last year. All I want back is the cut in salary"
 Meanwhile, the Bruins have re- called Jack Crawford, 8 defense man, from the Providence Reds to take Shores place in tomorrow nights game with the Maple Leafs.

Baltimore, Md, Nov. 2.-(UP)-A sketchy log of the Seabiscuit- War Admiral race from the moment a pair of glasses picked them up leav- ing the barn until the Biscuits red hood hit the finish line:
 The Admiral was the first to leave his quarters, and he sauntered leis- rrely across the intield. ... The Bis suit followed him by two minutes, swathed in blanket as red as a nose bleed The Admiral drew two cheers to Seabiscuit's one when they followed their lead ponies across the track and passed through the gate to the paddock. The customers money was on War Ad- miral and they wanted him to know it. An equine Emily Post could not have behaved better in the pad- dock than the two rivals When the bugle blew Seabiscuit fell in be- hind War Admiral and they march, ed onto the track as Sedately as grandma and grandpa walking to church on 8 Sunday morning. |.
 On Edge
 The first sign of nervousness on the part of anyone directly con. cerned with the race came just as the Biscuit walked on the track At this point Georgie Woolf, Bis cults jockey, reached up and un- buttoned the neck of his blouse |. Keyed up, tense, Georgie needed a little fresh air. Seabiscuit was the next to show tension. After walking slowly past the grandstand the California horse broke into 8 gallop and ran on around the turn and deep into the backstretch. |.

They could have blown their noses on one handkerchief read the same book, so snugly did they stay side by side i. :.
