out on us. Come on-come on, Abbie gtoe?'
Mrs. Tupper continued to chuckle until her
broad face was violent puce. The diminutive
chemist on the sofa started forward in alarm.
Mrs. Tupper waved him back with her smol-
dering cigarette.
"Out with it, Abbier Young Bill COM
manded, his voice stern and his eyes twinkling.
"Is this Bolsky ringer?"
"A ringer? You mean is Bolsky his right
name?" Mrs. Tupper started to shake again.
Lord bless my soul," she said, after the
paroxysm had somewhat subsided, what
prize fighter -e except maybe few goes
by his right name? Joe Godziontkowski is
in Bamey's stable but he's called Mauling
Murphy Little Abe Gutman is Young Sulli-
van. It's part of the racket. And Battling
Bolsky isn't Battling Bolsky. He isn't
champion we're trying to palm off as be-
ginner, either. He i he's just swell kid
that's going to put our product on the map
But Young Bill was not satisfied. And
what else?" he demanded suspiciously.
Mrs. Abbie Upper eyed her offspring
complacently You're smart boy, Willie"
she said finally. There - there is another
trihing detail. When this Battling Bolsky
floors his opponent he's going to give your
two sisters the biggest belt across the girdle
they've had in years"
Allan Pierce got in touch with his brother
in-law Jimmy Hartley, and in voice vibrant
with suppressed triumph, invited him to
lunch "Tf'c about this latest brain storm of
Mrs. T.'s," he conhded grimly Il think
know a way to make the old girl sit back
and let her arteries harden in peaceful calm"
'I'm on my way" Jimmy assured him
fervently. "Gloria's been in bed ever since
Mrs. Heversham didn't show up at her party"
When Hartley arrived his brother-in-law
introduced him, with a flourish to fat man

well what do you say, Jimmy? Is it worth
a hundred and fifty to you to achieve little
family peace and quiet? Can't you just see
the Old Lady's face when Bradley's lad, in
stead of doing the customary charity waltz,
starts to put on lethal massage?"
His brother-in-law's answer was to hold
out his right hand and signal passing waiter

suggested solemnly. Il can't afford the hum

Mr.. Bradley.
1t took only one minute and thirty seconds
of the first round to make the vast throng
which Jammed the 9lst A1mOry to Its
ancient doors realize that the feature event
on the Baby Fund Boxing Carnival was some
thing more than clever display of fistiana.
Like vast heather idol. the sweatered and
the white-shirted, the opera wraps and the
imitation beavers, seemed to fuse and gather
the white little spot of light in the middle of
the auditorium into its lap.
Behind the black corner, overf1owing
rickety folding chair and grasping the sweat
cred shoulders of Battling Bolsky's handlers
crouching in front of her, sat Mrs. Abbie
Tupper. To her right sat Young Bill, his eyes
glued to the flashing white bodies almost
above him. To the left sat Mr.. Barney Case,
frown on his blue cherubic face and cold
cigar clamped in the corner of his amiable
jaw. What Barney said, out of the free corner
of his mouth. was running like grass fire
Evening star., 1939-03-05

through the fence of newspaper men which
encircled the ring.
This don't look exactly kosher to me-"
said Mr.. Case thoughtfully.
What the matter with it," Mrs. Tupper
Kissed.
The thud of red leather against white flesh
sent the crowd into deep roar.
That's what's wrong with it," Battling
Bolskys erstwhile manager muttered and
waved his cigar. This Mullins guy amt
fightin' any charity taffy pull. He's smellin'
blood. An why should he?" He started from
his chair. Keep that left up! Keep that left
up!' he shouted at the ring.
Battling Bolsky bounced back against the
ropes. Young Bill groaned. Mullins, dubbed
The Mauler, was after him, weaving, feinting,
a faint smile of contempt twisting at the
corner of one thick lip.
In the outer darkness, a figure only visible
because of a blob of white shirt leaned across
to another blob. Getting your moneys
worth 50 far, Jimmy?" it inquired gleefully.
Back at the edge of the white, hot lights,
Mr.. Case, his bald head bent low, the per-

there an tell the kid to keep that left up an
quit tryin' to trade punches with Mullins
The guys tough but he's fat. If the kid can
stay away from him. he may have chance to
stay on his feet. There's something rotten in
Denmark about this fight. Mullins amt
workin' that way for nothin'."
Mrs. Tupper nodded absently. Mullins had
just crossed lethal left to her boys white
chin. 'Okay," she agreed placidly, but l
can't see what you're getting 50 excited about.

GUS cigar. Mr.. Perley Bradley nodded con-
descendingly. Pleasure" he stated briefly.
Allan Pierce wasted no time in getting to
the core of the subject. Its like this, Jimmy:
Mr.. Bradley here is one of the towns leading
fight promoters"
Leading" Mr. Bradley corrected.
Leading Well, he does some business with
our firm. He is promoting the Baby Fund
Boxing Carnival It's the biggest thing of its
kind held in these parts. A society event and
all that Well, Mrs T. has been around to see
Bradley. She wants match for her her
protege on this card"
Feature spot" Mr. Bradley explained
through the blue haze.
This Battling Bolsky is new to these parts.
The guy that Mrs T. took him over from
brought him on from the east somewhere.
But Mr.. Bradley saw him work yesterday
and -"
Pretty boy" said the fight promoter.
Its easy to see why she wants place on
this show. Everybody in town will attend.
She'll be killing two birds with one stone
putting over her fighter and putting over her
damned vitamins"
""If he wins" Mr. Bradley interjected.
But l understood these charity affairs
never go to decision, on account of the state
law, Hartley objected.
"They don't" Allan grinned at him. Mrs.
T. is figuring oh that. As rule the contestants
only figure on putting up good boxing exhi-
bition for the charity patrons. They work
for nothing, you know. So there isn't much
object in killing themselves. But there's an
angle. Mr.. Bradley here has tough cookie
of welter -"
"A sleeper from out of town" said Bradley.
He is willing to put this lad up against
this Battling Bolsky." Pierce continued
briskly. 1T will be supposed to last ten
rounds, but if somebody offered the lad two
hundred dollars for quick knockout -
Three hundred said Mr. Bradley.

A snowstorm put out a series of
raging fires in Arlington County,
Va, yesterday.
The fires were artificial, but then
so was the snow. Both were part
of a demonstration before Govern

fighters of just what chemical
carbon dioXide-can do.
Carbon dioxide is what puts the
pop in soda pop. In solid form, it
is known as dry ice But if you
want to quench blazes with it, you
carry it around in steel cylinders
as a liquid. compressed $50 pounds
to the square inch.
Then you step boldly up to a
soaring wall of flame, as Engineer
Ed Wilson did at the Arlington Ex-
perimental Farm yesterday, and let
'er go.
Out of the nozzle whirls the snow
storm. Released from pressure, the
liquid carbon dioxide becomes rush
of solid white flakes, squirting into
the flames at ITO degrees below zero
Fire Quelled in FL Seconds.
In yesterdays demonstration a
gasoline soaked "house" was set
afire, and black smoke billowed 200
feet toward the sky. But the chem
ical snowstorm killed the last flicker
of flame in 81 seconds.
A similar experiment was tried
with a ships bilge," with equal
results.
OF course, when the white flakes
hit the flames, they didn't stay long.
They changed into gas, and experts
claimed that was what ended the
fire. Carbon dioxide gas, they said
''smothers" the blaze-cutting of
the oxygen on which 1t feeds.
Charles Newbaker, engineer in
charge of the experiment, said the
greatest benefit of his showing

North Beach crash truck" has
been installed, he said. If trans
continental plane should trip and
burst into flames on the field, the
truck can open its carbon dioxide
tanks and let out enough snow for
an old-time blizzard.
Mr.. Newbaker claims that if his
snow machine should come into
general use the public might lose
its fear Of the aftermath of fires.
After your blaze you'd find no water
soaked floors or walls chopped by
fire axes, he said. There'd be a
little drift of snow, quickly turning
into carbon dioxide gas.

 Feminity took command of the situation and displayed upon the ballroom floor an array of scintillat- ing gowns such as seldom seen.
 There were cerises and white laces, black velvets, figured silks and ultra modern gowns of fushia and violet, dreams in chiffon and lovely visions of Louisiana beauties in wide spread hoop skirts.
 A tall languid beauty iii a beau tiful black net with velvet applique held court beneath the potted palms of the ball room while across from her, clad in Grecian gown of white chiffon, was a sister in charm who counted more eager males about her than fingers on her poised hands.
 Striking in roomful of flounces and ruffles were many simple sum- burst pleated dresses that lent an
