Between lunch and tea we forage

scattered about on nearly every ia

At dinner we really settle down
to serious eating, and it is nothing

ABOARD S. S. MATSONIA, Hon
olulu Bound, Feb. Ii. (UP)-Either
the officers Of this ship are wrong
or | am. Never being one to take
things for granted. I questioned
the position of this ship as posted
by them at noon tOcay and sat
down in my cabin to figure it out
for myself They were very nice
about giving me all the available
data, and for the last three hours
I have been charting our position
I overlooked nothing, North Star,
sun. time. date, etc. Furthermore
| am sure I made no mistakes in
arithmetic. The very fact that
don't see how l could be wrong is
what is worrying me, because, ac-
cording TO my calculations, the S
S. Matsopia, right this minute, IS
lust fourteen and tllree-quarter
miles outside of Muncie, Indiana.
I hope that the ships officers
are right, because I would much
rather 20 to Honolulu than to
Muncie. Not that I don't like Mum
Gle. because l do. Thousands CT
my best friends live in Muncie But
I feel it would be too much of an
imposition to drop in on them in
a ship. Come to think of it, not
more than three or four of my
friends in Muncie have docking
space for a 20,000-ton liner.
I have told the captain of the
position I worked out, and have
warned him that if am right he
had better slow down once he gets
inside the city limits because Mum
Gle strictly enforces its speed regu-
lationS.
Remember, | cautioned another
officer, fifteen miles an hour. "
"Knots TO you" he answered.
Having done all l could about the
position Of the ship business, I re-
suned eating. We eat something

Mead Maps Busy Summer Campaign
For Hammerin' Henry Armstrong;
Champ Will Face Pacho in Havana

NEW YORK, Fob. IA. (UP) =
Eddie Mead. paunchy pilot of Henry
Armstrong, today mapped out a
busy summer campaign in which
the little Negro warrior from Los
Angeles will risk his welter and
lightweight championships several
times.
With two defenses of the l47-
pound crown already lined up for
March, Mead plans TO take Henry
to England. where three promoters
are trying to outbid each other for
the champions services during
Derby Week, May 2227. Then
Armstrong will come home and give
Lou Ambers a shot at the 1885,
pound lightweight tiara he took
from Lou last year.
Mead is playing both ends against
the middle IN dickering with the
English promoters. and it looks like
he and Henry will come out the
big winners.
All three want Armstrong to fight
the winner of the March Is bout
between Jake Kilrain. European
welter champion. and Ernie Roder-
ick Of England.
Brig. Gen. A. c. Critchley, who
now is in the United States has
offered Mead a guarantee Of $4,000
or the privilege of a 40 per cent
cut of the gate for Henry to risk
his welterweight title at White City
stadium. where 100000 customers
can be handled.
Promoter sgd Hulls has offered
to match terms of any other pro-
moter, and Capt. Harding Of the
National Sporting club also is try
ing to land the Armstrong show in
London.
With three of them in there
pitching" Mead said. we'll prob
ably end up with a $4,000 guar
antee with the privilege OF taking
