Lucy could be like other girls, after
living with those people all these
years, and they say her brother did
grow up to be peculiar. They are
such odd people! Are you quite
sure Greg ought to marry her?"
MIR. Hanson Kindly.
Mr.. Hanson was a kindly man, in
spite of his rigidly respectable out
look on life. Lucy had sensed that.
She imagined him answering, Lucy
couldn't help it If she and Guy
were left orphans under the guard
ianship of their Uncle Luke, any
more than she could help it that
her Uncle Luke was an actor and
that there was that terrible scandal
when he married Elizabeth"
She brushed 1t all from her mind
now, however, as Greg started the
car and began to drive through the
fog. She was thinking; Now that
I'm going to be married, Uncle Luke
will probably turn over my share Of
the trust, and even though Guy
won't get his part, I'll be able to
loan him enough money to go ahead
with that experiment of his. He
can pay me back when he's Is and
gets his share"
Greg said, what will your
brother Guy think about your
marrying me?"
what? Oh-what will Guy
think? He'll be very glad that I'm
going to be happy" she answered.
She wouldn't tell Greg that she in
tended to loan Guy money. He
might not like it. She didn't know
why she thought that he would dis
approve. She just felt it.
What does he do down in that
laboratory all the time?"
"Oh-why, don't know exactly,

was troubled. She knew Greg

most every one else did. "He has

I guess you might call it. He's work.

about which he's very enthusiastic.
I don't know much about It," she
laughed little sef-consciously,
"but it's awfully important to him.
More important than meals or sleep

She could see that Greg was
frowning. "You can't make money
at anything like that, unless some
big company is backing you. What's
he trying to do2 Be another Curie?'

GIBSON ISLAND, Md, June IT,
Middies today were celebrating their
most important victory of the yacht
ing year in one OF the finest per-
formances of the United States
Academy's three yawls yesterday
over a 14-mile course-the annual
raceback of the Gibson Island Yacht
Squadron from Rhode River here.
Sailing against the Glass B cham
pion, Corrin Strong's cutter Narada,
the three 45-foot yawls placed first,
second and third in that division.
They were the Resolute, Intrepid and
Alert.
The Academy shippers found the
light airs that veered around the
compass to their liking. Narada was
seventh.
The event concluded the week end
rendezvous of the local squadron
which saw Rhode River crowded
with all sorts of yachts, sail and
otherwise. All boats had cruised
leisurely to the river on Saturday.
A fourth academy entry, the big
ketch Vamarie, gave way to Bill
Labrot's Stormy Weather, winner in
Glass A. Nine minutes corrected
time separated the two.
In Glass c, Johnny Sherwood's
new Bounty class sloop registered the
first win Of its short career. The
Gibson Girl was first In that divi-
sion.
Twenty yachts competed in the
event.

into the living room now, miss?"
There was a queer urgency in La
walls voice.
Lets do, until the hall lights
fixed" she whispered suddenly to
Greg. The darkness seemed terrify-
ing, for no reason at all.
And then they heard the voices,
Standing there, rooted by shock,
listening in the darkness, the three
OF them, Greg and Lucy and Laval
were very still.
The voices came clearly from
Uncle Luke's study. Sonorous,
throaty, the unconsciously dra-
matte voice Of Uncle Luke was un.
mistakable. I'm very sorry, Eliza
beth. that it had to turn out this
way"
you can't do this to mel" That
was Elizabeth speaking. Her voice,
too, held that peculiar sonorous
quality that belonged to the stage.
I am going to divorce you, Eliza
beth. Nothing you can do or say
will change that"
You have no grounds for Dr.
vorcing mel"
You think not?" The reply was
mocking.
Greg Goes Hurriedly.
Its that girl-Rita Starl You
want to marry her, I suppose"
There was sound of wild and un.
controlled weeping then.
Suddenly the hall blazed with
light as Laval, his tall gaunt frame
stretching above them, put the new
bulb in the chandelier.
Lucy. pale and trembling, was
staring at Greg. "Greg!" she whis-
pered. There was something piteous
in that whisper, something helpless
and pleading.
Greg recovered himself and
looked down at her. Il think ia
better go, Lucy" he said quickly.
Then we've won't-of course
we couldn't tell them tonight" Her
voice was breathless, as If she had
been running.
He didn't kiss her good-by. Per-
haps he forgot. Perhaps it was be-
cause Laval was still standing
there. And Bertha, too, the house,
keeper. The light coming on had
disclosed her, also, standing wide
eyed and intent at the end of the
hall, listening.
He swung open the ponderous
door and the damp smcthering
smell Of the fog crept into the hall
way.
Lucy watched him hurry down
the broad stone steps to the car at
the curb. The fog seemed curiously
to swallow him UP.

Cocoa Kid-McDoweII
Fight Postponed
Until Tomorrow
Bad Weather Delays Bout
Of Ranking WeIters at
Griffith Stadium

Washington's first mixed boxing
match goes on at Grifith Stadium
tomorrow, with Promoter Joe Turner
and Matchmaker Gabe Menendez
throwing two good welterweights at
each other to test whether that type
of bout will attract patronage here.
The fight. originally scheduled for
tonight, was postponed on account
OF bad weather.
The Cocoa Kid. hard hitting New
Haven colored fighter, and Wild Bill
Mcdowell of Texas will 60 10 rounds
or less before a crowd variously
estimated in advance at from 1000
to 1000. Both boys rate high on the
welter ladder. The Cocoa Kid is
ranked No. l by both the N. B. A.
and Ring Magazine on the strength
Of stretch of two years undefeated
during which he won Al bouts. His
latest victory was a 1-round knock
out over Johnny Barbara In Phila-
delphia.
Mcdowell holds the N. B. A. No. 8
welter ranking. Twice in Washing
ton he has beaten Phil Furr and
won himself something. of a local
following. On the strength Of their
records, the Cocoa Kid will be about
a 7-to-5 choice at fight time, which
may seem bit close on comparing
the two fighters in advance. Local
fight fans will remember though that
Mcdowell was a 1-3 underdog when
he faced Furr, but he came from
under to win twice. and this up
setting quality is being used to keep
the odds down.
Both fighters finished their train
ing Saturday and Cancelled workouts
scheduled at Turner's Arena yester-
day. 1t was too hot there for the
boys to work, and they contented
themselves with being introduced to
the assembled fans from the ring.
The Cocoa Kid also received an
ovation at yesterdays colored base
ball game in Griffith Stadium.
The usual four supporting matches
fill out the card. Billy Banks of
Washington meets Jole Sole of Balti-
more in the Ground semi -windup.
Two other SKIES are booked, Earl
Ward of Baltimore and Frank
Rosano of New York mixing in one
and Tiger Jack Flowers of Trenton
and Floyd Grayson of Washington
in the other. The opening 4-rounder
is between Ray Lands of Washing
ton and Dominik Nico of Fort Myer.

Cornell Crew Rated
Best Of Quartet
With Chance
Syracuse and Columbia
Also Held Real Rivals
For Bears and Huskies
BY BILL BONI,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y, June IT.
Possibly because this is the year
the Brooklyn Dodgers are likely to
win the National League pennant,
1t also appears to be the year an
Eastern crew may win the 4-mile
varsity race of the intercollegiate
Rowing Association regatta on the
Hudson.
1t is not unusual for the East to
send into this race at least one boat
load given a pretty fair chance of
winning. The Navy, for instance,
had the winner two years ago.
But too often-10 times out of the
last l6, to be eXact-the boys who
got up this oar-pulling carnival have
had to take the wash of the Johnny
come-latelys from the Pacific Coast.
Four Of East Have Chance.
It is, therefore, virtually the dawn
of new era to find that "a hours
before tomorrow afternoons race,
at least three and possibly four
Eastern entrants are expected to be
in there fighting when the time
comes for the final back-breaking
sprint.
Rated most highly is Cornell, which
went unbeaten in its sprint cam
paign. The Big Red really is big,
with the heaviest of the 18 varsity,
jayvee and freshman crews in the
regatta, and it has power. The ex-
pertS for some reason think that
power is going to be the deciding
factor this year, and that there II be
little chance of the winner making
it four successive years of record
breaking
For feed-box special, we're in
clined to like Syracuse. The Orange
wasn't startling in its short races,
but has looked extra good up here
In addition it has four members of
the 1889 winning jayvees in this
years varsity boat.
Bears, Huskies Are Feared.
California, winner here last year,
and Washingtons Huskies, who beat
the Bears at three miles on the
West Coast, are the other favorites.
although Al Ulbrickson has been
arguing that his late-arriving
Huskies haven't had time to get into
top condition.
Other entrants are Navy, Prince
ton, rowing here for the first time:
Wisconsin and Columbia. The first
three don't figure heavily. Columbia,
which has more than an outside
chance, would be a most popular
winner. The Lions, who get less
time for practice and have fewer
men available than anybody else,
won the first race, in 1895, and their
fourth and last in 1929.
