THE STORY OF THE WEEK
John SheIburne Host to National
Amateurs Tonight at State House

Mr.. John Shelburne, director of
boys work at the Shaw House, will be
host to the several amateurs, who have
come to the Hub seeking national pu-
gilistic glory, tonight beginning at
1880 pm. There's to be no formality
as the program simply consists of get
ting acquainted with young men from
other sectors of this land.
These amateurs, who come from all
parts of the country, are only here for
a short stay but they all, almost with
out exception, enjoy journeying into
the residential sections of the city in
hopes of meeting some young people,
and elderly too, with whom they might
exchange story or two. Like others,
who have at some time found them
selves in strange city, these young
men enjoy meeting boys around their
age in hopes of striking up a friend
ship that they might carry back home
with them.
GRAND GESTURE
With these things in mind, Mr.. Shell
burne has arranged to have the entire
game room facilities at their conven-
fence. It's grand gesture and worthy
of your consideration and attendance.
For those who are contemplating TAX
ing in the National Championships it
will be a rare treat as you will be able
to meet and talk with the very bows
who have travelled many miles to bring
you boxing entertainment. Mr.. Shell
burne has also included in his commun-
ity invitation men who would like to
drop around and extend the hand of
fellowship to a truly great group of
youngsters.
As you read this invitation to attend
the amateurs from Chicago and the
south will be arriving in Boston. AS
soon as they have unpacked and Tom
Kanaly, of the A.A.U., told your re-
porter earlier in the week that some of
the amateurs are expected to arrive
on Friday but most of the fighters
from the distant communities are not
expected until Saturday from noon till
early evening. Mr.. Shelburne has al
ready established contact with some
of the teams, through the A.A.U.
office, and they have expressed them
selves as being in accord with the "get
acquainted gesture. AS soon as the
Saturday arrivals are able to unpack
and get settled in their Hotel Nanger
quarters they will come uptown to
the Shaw House for the few hours of
relaxation. 1t is important that all
who intend taking part be at the Shaw
House as near 1880 pm. as possible
for 1t is to be remembered that the
guests are in training and cannot pos
sibly stay beyond 10 o'clock.

the minds of the many visiting news
papermen that they had talent COM
parable to the best anywhere. Con-
sidering that many of the members of
that team got to the quarter-finals it
is noteworthy that this year inter
ested men in Memphis, through the
cooperation of Alabama State Col
lege, have taken more time in an effort
to find the best available talent in the
south. Communications at the A.A.U.
office seem to point to a vastly i'm
proved team which probably will mean
that National title will go to their,
section. ed. note: last year the south
ern team was picked from 65 boys but
this year there were close to 200 boys
from which to choose a team of 81
MIDWEST ENTRIES STRONG
From the midwest comes the news
that Ray Standifer, the big It's pound
er of the Missouri Valley, will make
his second visit to the Hub. He is the
Missouri Valley A. A. U. and Kansas
City Golden Gloves champion of the
past two years. A terrific puncher with
dynamite in either hand, Standifer is
considered quite capable of annexing
the National title. He won all his
fights in the sectional tournament by
knockouts, and three of the five in the
Kansas City tournament.
There will be many other strong
contenders coming from the Chicago
Association. 1t will be remembered
that the recent Golden Gloves champ
ions, in Chicago, were all colored.
Standifer was one of them. The team
which will represent Chicago will have
many of these same Golden Gloves
Titlist which should make it quite in
teresting for the commended team tro-
ply.

Manners
of the
Moment

This habit of digging for cherries
in tall glasses is one which is par
ticularly hard to break. I'm not
at all sure that it should be broken,
either. 1t depends upon how you
do your digging.
If, for example, you toy daintily
with your glass, tossing the ice and
the cherry around until you have
loosened them up, and then give a
quick toss that bounces the cherry
right up into your mouth. you are an
expert. You should keep right on
tossing cherries. In fact, you should
work it up as parlor trick. You
might then be offered other peoples
cherries, too.
But If you start plowing into your
glass with straw or fingers. bending
over it dourly and working hard at
the Job of catching the cherry, you
may annoy those who are with you.
In that case 1t would probably be
better to make up your mind that
you can't have that one and for
get 1t.
Sometimes, to be sure, an un-
caught cherry will bother you psy-
chologically, in which case I would
advise you to take your glass into
some lonely corner and get the
cherry out willy -nilly. Then you can
come back to the group and be So
ciable once more with nothing on
your mind. JEAN. !.

TO lose these extra pounds quickly
without waiting too long to see re-
suits
I never have approved extreme
diets over a long period of time
If we are to keep beauty and health
as We discard a large number of
unWanted pounds, we must give the
skin time to shrink and the body
must be kept firm with exercise as
We reduce gradually.
However, the short, rapid reduc-
ing diet has two advantages. If
you have only 5 to 10 pounds
to lose, you can concentrate on the
lack of calories and finish the Job
quickly in nine days, without in
| juring your health. On the other
hand, if you have a long war of
attrition ahead against too many
pounds, this diet will bring you re-
suits which will encourage you to
persevere on a longer-term, more
| conservative schedule.
These diets are planned with the
needs of the body in mind, and they
do not sacrifice your health to your
figure.
In order to serve feminine impa-
tience and to give you quick boost
toward lovely figure, Why Grow
Old is giving you its own nine-day
reducing diet at this time. Remem-
berl If you follow instructions you
can be 5 to 10 pounds simmer at
the end of little more than week.
Get ready to begin. The following
are the first days menus:
| BREAKFAST
! poached or sOft-boiled egg
/ thin dry slice whole wheat toast
Coffee (black)
LUNCHEON
Salad of lettuce hearts and me-
dium tomato demon for dressing)
2 tablespoons cottage cheese
l glass SKINNED milk (this has
only about 80 calories and you need
it)
DINNER
Broiled liver, good portion
12-cup spinach
portion beetS.
No butter
l glass SKINNED milk
l orange
This diet is high in mineral and
vitamin content, but most authori-
ties feel that it is wise to take vita
minis in concentrated form along
with any reducing routine. These
not only fortify health, but have a
direct effect on the glandular sys-
tenn. Check with your doctor as
to how many capsules to take.
This diet should be followed for
the prescribed nine days. If at
the end of that time, you still have
more pounds to lose, continue with

and ready for the fray and so they
surrender without making a strug-
gle. They've battled all day with
incompetent employees, or mreason-
able bosses. or cantankerouS clients
and they simply can't take on an
other adversary.
"The real peace-at-any-price ad-
vocates are men. There IS nothing
they won't do to avoid arguments
and contentious and get a little
quiet and harmony at home, so they
give in and let their wives do what
they want to do to save scenes.
Maybe it is cowardly, but it prevents

st think it is nobility instead of
weakness that makes many men
suffer the humiliation of being DOM
mated by their wives" said another
man. They have respect for their
oaths. They swore at the altar be-
fore God and man to take their
wives for better or worse and cleave
unto them until death parted them,
and they feel honor bound to keep
their VOWS.
They consider that they are as
much obligated to stand by their
marriage contracts as they would

Vary doughnuts by adding
some chopped dates. nutmeats

elaborated doughnuts are just
right to serve with coffee after

Carpet sweepers need con-
slant care and watching if they
are to work best. Empty them
frequently, keep the brushes
very clean and cut off any hairs
or threads that cling to them.
Oil them as the maker directs.
When not in use, hang up the
sweeper to save wear on the
brushes.
If some article of wearing ap-
parel or linen has too much
blueing in it, soak for several
hours in one quart of warm
water with two tablespoons of
vinegar in it. Wash out in the
usual way.
