Critic Admits Golento
Brushed His Teeth
BY JOHN LARDNER,
Special Correspondent Of The Star.


NEW YORK, Sept. 10 (N.AN.A).
Defenders of clean living will be
glad to know that Tony Galento
brushes his teeth. Outside of that,
he doesn't do anything right and the
success of this unrefined rufflan is
a gravy-stain on the vest of virtue,
If I may be forgiven for lapsing into
the language of Shelley and Keats.
Galento puts water on his hair,
leading infalliably to dandruff and
pilatory shortage. Tony figures to
be as bald as Friar Tuck and he is.
On the other hand, he puts no
water in his whisky, stratagem
which is said to lead straight to
ulcers.
Early to bed and early to rise was
Benjamin Franklin's one best bet,
and Galento practices the tip-in re-
verse. He has been known to rise
as early as suppertime and to hit the
hay well before dawn.
The constant anointment of ones
interior with beer, the misdirected
fruit of the hop vine, was said by the
early Greek physician Galen to be
the shortest route to flabbiness and
a broken wind Tony drinks dozen
stems of beer daily.

GoIento Feels Undressed
Without Cioor in kisser

HippocrateS warned his clients
that cigars would produce bilious
sensation and spots before the eyes.
Galento feels undressed without a
large cigar in his kisser.
Rich food brought down the curse
Of heaven upon the Babylonians.
And did for King John of England,
who reached for the prawns once too
often. Overtime work at the trough
also shortened the life of Sir John
Falstaff and plagued the waking
hours of Helogabalus, neither Of
whom has been adopted as a model
by the Boy Scouts of America. Yet
Galento reels in fathom after fathom
of his wife's spaghetti. inundated in
a meat sauce which is said to be
the richest in the neighborhood of
Orange, N. J.
Tony shuns fresh air as he would
poison ivy.
He never stands in an open win
dow unless he has worked up good
perspiration.
He flexes his leg muscles on brass
rails
He crosses streets against the
light.
He walks in the sun without hat
He has 5 o'clock shadow, athletes
foot and Squaley's squint, a highly
technical ailment which comes from
reading the small print on liquor la
bels.

Pastor Will Meet q Chonoed
Louis, Soys Blackburn

Pastor met Joe at the time Joe
was boxing and jabbing," Black
burn tells you. That's the way
he was against Schmeling and Farr.
Pastor hasn't tackled the Joe
that starts out punching with both
hands to get it over in a hurry.
l still can see that look on Schmel-
lngs face when Joe piled into him
from the bell, trying to tear his
head off with the first punch. Pas
tor is fighting a different Louis
Wednesday night"
If Pastor decides to get on the
bicycle, can Louis catch him?"
Blackburn was asked.
"Joell catch hira this time. Don't
worry about that Joes learned a
lot since that first Pastor fight. A
whole lot. 1t might take a few
rounds if Pastor decides to keep out
OF range, but Joe's been little mad
about that first fight, and, when Joe
gets a little mad as he got at
Schmeling and Galento, he's liable
TO hurt somebody a little without
wasting too much time. He's
faster fellow to catch and it might
take longer, but the catching will
take place sure"

The
.SPORTLIGHT
Postor Due for Shock,
Louis Camp Feels
BY GRANTLAND RICE,
Special Correspondent Of The Star.

DETROIT, Sept. 10 IN. A. N. A..
The somewhat melancholy and
untoward incidents that happened
recently to Lou Nova have put a
certain restraint on predictions that
Joe Louis would remove Bob Pastor
from the scene in a round or two.
If Galento could traved IA rounds
to beat Nova, why couldn't any
thing happen?
Jack Blackburn has one answer
to this query-"Lou Nova amt any
Joe Louis, and Pastor hasn't got
that left hook that Galento car
ries around"
There is strong feeling in the
Louis camp that Pastor is in for
the shock of his young life-the
same shock that struck Max Schmel-

Thot Ginger Ale Thought
OF Koenio's Wosn't Bod

Todays New York Yankees, the
greatest baseball team of our decade,
are lean-living, homespun. o'clock
boys, but the Yankees of 1857, the
greatest team of the last decade.
were disposed to study the grape
while it bubbled.
In this connection, they tell a
story of Mark Koenig, who broke
In with the wonder team as a rookie
shortstop in 1926. The following
year, the mighty doings of Ruth,
Meusel. Dugan, Hoyt, ct al, carried
the Yankees through to straight
game victory in the World Series,
and Manager Miller Higgins asked
Koenig how he was going to spend
his series money.
We'll" said the shortstop thought
fully, after watching this ball club
for two years, think I will invest
my dough in ginger ale factory" p"
This glowing tribute to the habits
Of his colleagues, who always mixed
their refreshments, showed that Mr..
Koenig's head was in the right place.
1t also indicates what can be
achieved sometimes by slight varia-
tions from Hoyle, though I do not
recommend the example of Mr.
Galento to anybody. Mr.. Galento
was not satisfied with variations.
He threw the book away.

Greet Success Enjoyed
By Horrible Example

All in all. Anthony Galento is
horrible example, and the results of
his misspent life were plainly shown
IN his fight in Philadelphia last
week with Lou Nova when:
ca He outlasted Nova in point of
stamina.
CD He was fresher than Nova at
the end
Co He knocked Nova out.
Nova, fan for camomile tea and
q man who believes everything he
reads. took the trouble to whale at
Tony's prominent midsection with
his right hand whenever he had a
chance, The upshot was that he
bruised his knuckles severely and
caused Galento to urge him to stop
tickling.
Apparently. in addition to his
other vices, Tony is ticklish, sure
sign of bad habits.
The case of this plump infringer
of the rules of health and hygiene
Is not exactly unique. There was
John L. Sullivan, for instance, who
always considered that clean living
was overrated. His joyful past did
overtake Mr.. Sullivan at New Or
leans, when he lost the world cham
pionship to James J. Corbett, but
by that time John was past the age
at which pugilists can expect to be
ellccessful.

 FOR LENDING
Indicates Desire 10 Boost Limits on Federal
 Loan Agencies

WASHINGTON, June 17.-Presi- dent Roosevelt said today he is studying a new industrial lending program embracing self liquidating projects which will operate within the budget and add nothing to the public debt.
 President Roosevelt said he is studying the question of increasing present limitations on various Fed eral lending agencies with view to probably raising these limits.
 As for labor friction, Roosevelt said he is planning no new step to bring the rival CIO and AFL labor groups together.
 However, the President expressed hope they will settle their differ ences in the long run.
 President Roosevelt told reporters he knew nothing about recent de- velopments that indicated little hope for labor peace. except what he had read in the newspapers.

BRIDGES GIVEN
 p05Tp0NEMENT

WASHINGTON, June 17-(AP) The Labor Department announces that the opening of a deportation hearing at San Francisco for Harry Bridges, West Coast Congress of h. dustrial Organizatio director, had been postponed from June 26 to July 10.
 The new hearing date was fixed by James M. Landis, appointed as a special examiner to hear the case, after Bridges had requested post ponement until July IT. Landis is dean of the Harvard law school.
 whether Bridges shall be deported to his native Australia hinges upon the Labor Departments efforts to prove he is a member of the Com munist Party and that membership is ground for deportation.
 A Labor Department postpone ment of the Bridges case last year became the subject of debate in Congress and of resolution by Rep resentative Thomas, New Jersey, to impeach Secretary of Labor Perkins. The resolution was defeated in com- mittee.

 Before boarding their boats and sailing away to Craig, the union men told seamen aboard the ship that they were free to unload the cans and cannery supplies which had been branded previously as hot cargo and kept aboard through un- willingness on the part of the sail- DTS to breach the picket line.
 As the seamen appeared to be undecided as to what their course would be- Oliver Olson, leader of the pickets, conferred with them and ad- vised them to unload the cargo, ac- cording to Deputy Marshal Walter Hellan, who served the order. I Seamen Agree

 Olson volunteered, Hellan said, to notify union members at both Craig and Steamboat Bay to allow the Lakina to discharge the disput- ed cargo.

COOL RIDE HOME

The Senate usually adjourns for the day at o'clock or earlier
 Back to his office by trolley, the Senator can work a while longer or go out into the buried garage and take cooling ride home through the breezy Rock Creek Canyon, which is one blessing this city shares above all others.
 It is so hot here during summer that important peace negotiations once were transferred out of the city so the delegates might be cool and collected instead of hot and cantankerous. That's why the Rus so-Japanese war of 1905 was settled by the Treaty of Portsmouth, New Hampshire. Theodore Roosevelt ask ed them to come to Washington and make peace, but they came in June and that was no time to make peace in Washington.

Not again during v,le day must the Senator get out int othe blaz- ing sun. He strolls through a cool underground passage into the Sen ate office building, entirely air con- ditioned this summer for the first time. Only part of it was finished last summer. It isn't true that the Democrats air-conditioned their own offices first.
 The Senator may work in his of- flee or an conditioned hearing room until noon when the Senate convenes.
 Senators used to sweat, and take off their coats as their collars wilt ed, but not any more.
 At noon the Senator can take the underground trolley for noisy two-block ride over to the Capitol
 An hour or so of debate may drive him to eat, so he rides down the Senate's private elevator to the Sen- ate restaurant where a dozen negro walters know all his whims and fancies. The menu is varied and the food moderately good. He can't have beer. The members voted against it. The House permits it in their restaurant, however.

 That may sound like something trivial, but it isn't. The heat around this place would roast jungle monkey. For years it was taken for granted that Congress would rush through it's business in early June to escape the heat. But now a mem- Der of Congress can come to work in the cool of the forenoon, remain in an air cooled region throughout the day and go home in the even- ing without facing touch of the old torrid blast.
 The Senators have the most elaborate layout which is possible be- cause there aren't so many of them. The Senator drives to the Capitol in the morning, into an underground garage where an attendant takes it over and parks it for him in reserved spot.
