Her father was a Norwegian,
her mother was Spanish, her
husband was part German, part
French, and then Mathilde's son
married an Irish colleen, and
her daughter q Scotchman.
Naturally she believes that there
should be no national barriers
and is a vigorous International.
Mathilde has been everywhere
and, we suspect, seen every
thing, and has a delightful phil
osophy of living.
She does not think that people
and especially we Americans
ever know what to do with
leisure time she refuses to go
back over old trails ever, or as
she puts it "retrace steps: she
is famous for her dinners and
their perfection and yet she has
a horror of excess poundage
and at her summer place and
town house exercises regularly
and strenuously. The result is
that though she is q grand
mother, she is as slim as a
willow.
Approaching all the lovely
things in life, she still is of the
opinion that people are too
prone to pursue money, too
eager for much, much more
than they can ever need, too
busy going, they know not ex-
actly where. She and I were
just touring Egypt when Joyce
interrupted, to take her off to
meet someone else. Reba Dough
ton, daughter of Representative
and Mrs. Bob Doughton, of
North Carolina. arrived just
then in a good looking suit of
henna crepe, a wee black straw
hat and veil that is the most
intriguing thing around this
town. The veil Is draped over
the hat and hangs well below
the shoulders, but one side of
the veil is decorated with a ire
mendous leaf fashioned of black
leather and corresponding iden-
tically to the black patent
leather leaves on the crown Of
the hat.

ROUGH MATME EN-
HOLD SPOTLIGHT
in ARENA RING
BY HOWARD JACOBS

The rough and tough boys of
the wrestling brigade-Six in all
will display their wares at Tur-
ner's Arena tonight, and the fire
works should be popping right
and left bright and early.
Featured by the double wind-up,
involving Ed Meske and Ernie Du-
SEX and YVon Robert and Bibber
Mccoy, Promoter Joe Turner will
present three other matches anc;
is anticipating another large turn
out.
Ernie, Bibber, Reb Russell, Steve
BudynaS, the latter two rivals to-
night Ed Newman, who encoun-
ters Tony Colisano. and Chris
Zaharias, opponent of Chick Carl
baldi, Is the sextet that won their
spurs. not only here, but in every
ring in the country for their viii
famous tactics.
It's q slam-bang card that has
been arranged, with the featured
artists. If we may be allowed to
call them that, figured to give the
local faithful q good run for their
admission fee. They are all of
the top-notch variety, and close,
interesting and. of course, riotous
battling is expected to result from
their meetings.
Promoter Turner Is angling to
pair the respective winners in
the headline offering the follow
ing week.
MeSke, the popular Dayton,
Ohio, gladiators, has made rapid
strides in D. c., and the fans are
pulling for him to come through
tonight and score one of his big
gest upSets of the season. Ernie
is one tough nut to crack, and
there are few, if any, that can
boast of victories at his expense.
But Ed should give him a tough
Setto, nevertheless, as long as it
lasts.
Mccoy, who scored q One-punch
X. o. over Referee Benny Bort
nick, the last time out, and Yvon
Robert, always a big favorite here,
are considered on q par, thus max
ing the match toSSup.
