CHAPTER xI
BY NORMAN KAHl

vi Al a IN ~
Angus is lying in the tall grass.
flat on his face, like he is never
going to get up again. The flood
lights are still on and the grounds
look like the middle of Madison
Square Garden on fight night.
Castaloni is a pretty good shot.
That bullet came so close that
Angus could nearly read the cali
Der as it went by. Angus does not
wish to get shot just now-but at
the same time, he is convinced
that the inside OF that house with
the Broccoli King is no place for
Adoreen to be.
Angus lenses his muscles. Then
he springs TO his feet and streaks
back toward the truck. He takes
another dive into the grass just as
another bullet whistles by in the
general vicinity OF where his ear
was a split-second before. With
out stating this time. Angus
makes a final dash for the truck
and hops inside just as another
chunk of sizzling lead crashes
through the night.
Spike is sitting up as gracefully
as the ropes on his body will allow.
His face is white and he does not
seem to be enjoying life. Il am
glad to see you have changed your
mind. Angus" he says. 1T would
be better II we went back TO town
and talked this over"
Angus sees Butch and Trigger
Tim have their eyes wide open.
but they look as if they have just
been invited 10 be guests Of honor
at 4 cannibal elambake.
We amt got no rods with us,
Angus Spike says. You threw
them away. II We had them"
Wouldn't do no good" Angus
says sadly. Il never shot n gun
in my life. II l wasn't 50 dumb l
could think of something to do TO
get Adoreen out Of there
Spike is perspiring, which Is
strange because the night is fair
/ ly cool. Il never could think when
someone was pointin a gun at me
Start driving and let's get out of
here. Remember, 1t amt safe sit
tin here with Castsloni takin' a
bead at us from inside"
Angus reaches down and turns
the ignition key. He starts back
ing up toward the road. He can
see the house pretty clearly now.
II is sort Of low. with a wing on
each side. There are big French
windows in each wing. II he could
only get up close enough, il would
be no trick at all busting his way
in. The windows are almost big
enough for . truck TO get
through
A truck, Gosh. why didn't he
think OF that right away. he Jams
on the brakes and spike falls back
and smsshes his head into Butch 5
stomach. There is swish OF wind
and Butchs eyes close again.
Cant you be more careful.
Angus, Spike grosns. Some
ones liable 10 get hurt
Angus looks around says, Hang
on tight"
To what" Spike asks. And
with what His hands and feet
are still securely tied. and he is
struggling 10 sit up sgsin.
Angus doesn't pay any attention
To him. The house is completely

BETT|NA AND
 BURMAN CLASH
SavOld-Krieger, Cooper. COn1iskey Also on Eb-
 betts Field Card

New york, July 22.-(Up) -Threo 1O-round bouts with scrap between heavyweights Melio Bettina and Red Burman as the feature make up Chick Meehan,s second boxing show of the season tonight.
 Meehan, former football coach at New York University and Manhat- tan, Is operating in opposition to Promoter Mike Jacobs. He lost about $TOOO with his first program two weeks ago but attributes that to lack of big timers on his card.
 Tonight, in addition to the Bet tina -Burman brawl, Meehan will present Lee Savold vs. Solly Krieger and Pat Comiskey vs. Henry Cooper, all weli-known heavyweights.
 Bettina, former lightheavyweight champion, is unbeaten as 8 heavy weight. He defeated 9 of the big boys, knocking out 17 and hopes to use Burman, protege of Jack Demp- sey, as stepping stone to winter title bout with Joe Louis.
 Betting men, however. possibly because Burnan will have To- pound weight advantage and be- cause Bettina has not fought since March, have made the Baltimore Irishnnan the 6-5 favorite.

Sibold won the first set and then was set back in the next two for the match.

 Forrest Simms, able noth end colored racqueteer, gave Tom Me- Hale, quite a tussle before the latter came through in the third set as Simms tired. The scores were 1-6; 8-6 and 6-4. Petey zillon surprised the spectators with 8 victory over Dom Antonacci after losing the first set 4-6; and winning the next two by the same score 6-2; and 6-2.

Bristol Upsets U. s. Rubber
 In Naugatuck Tourney

Naugatuck, July 22-Bristol 3-U. s. ?. That is the way the score read ct the end of the feature Dusty league game played last evening at the Recreation field. It was the second time this season that an underdog scaled the heights at the expense of the crack Rubbermen. In the other games, Chemical de- feated Glass S-2, and Risdon beat Malleable i0-5.
 Paul Gallagher toed the mound for U. s. Bristol got away to a 1 run lead in the second inning on a walk, wild pitch and a hit. U. s. scored two runs in the fourth, but Risdon tied it' up in the next frame and then scored the winning run in the seventh. Slim Yarrison, pitching for Bristol, held the U. S. to 5 hits and was given airtight support by his mates. Edmonds and Gair starred for the losers, and Walsh and Neff for the winners. Nolde umpired.
 Chemical Win
 Glass errors paved the way for the Chemical win. The winners got away to an early lead and smart fielding behind the steady pitching of Smey and Edmunds cutoff sev- eral threatened Glass rallies. Eddie Howard starred for the Glass and Daly and Mariana for Chemical Petrilas caught for the swinners. The Glass battery was J. Howard, Sirica and Roach. Prorovost um- pired.
 The Risdons bounced back from their one-sided defeat of last week an easily defeated Malleable in the third game of the evening. The winners jumped on the offerings of EStefanelli for four runs in the first two innings and then coasted to an easy win. Upright and Jones and Garland formed the winning bat tery. Niziolek caught for Malleable Klonoski umpired.
 Thursday evening, the long await ed game between Chemical and U s. will feature the play. Glass plays Risdon, Malleable plays Bristol in the other games.

Soose Most Anxious To "Get Back" At
 Georgie Abrams

New York, July 22.-Joe Louis never really considered himself world heavyweight champion until he had wiped out the defeat which Max Schmeling had administered a year before Louis won the title from Jim Braddock.
 Similarly. Billy Soose, world nid- dleweight champion, says he will not be satisfied with his title until he has wiped out the pair of defeats he suffered at the hands of Georgie Abrams before Soose captured the crown from Ken Overlin.
 One week from tonight at Madi- son Square Garden, Soose gets an opportunity of squaring accounts with Abrams. They meet in q scheduled ten round contest and though Billy's title is not at stake he knows he must register a con- voncing triumph or his prestige as champion will suffer an inmeas- urable drop.
 Close Contest
 The first meeting between Soose and Abrams took place in Pitts burgh close to two years ago, the two middIeweights facing each other in the emi-final to the Billy Conn., Melio Bettina light-heavyweight tile match. The fight was very close but att he end of eight rounds Abrams was declared the winner.
 The following February the two met again in a ten round event at Pittsburgh. The fight was marked by several knockdowns but again 1t was Abrams who came up with the verdict.
 Today there isn't an outstanding middleweight in the country who has not been beaten by Billy Soose that is, with the exception of Georgie Abrams. Ken Overlin Tony zale, Tami Mauriello, Ernie Vigh, all have had their records marred by the classy Farrell, Pa. champion.
 As he has for all his recent fights Soose is again training at Lake Wallenpaupack, Penn, near Scran- ton. Abrams, on a furlough from the U. s. Naval Reserves at Jack sonville, Fla, is preparing at Mad anne Bey's camp in Summit, N. J

Danbury Midget Races Set Friday

Postponed because of the heavy fog which settled over the $15,000 dustless track about o'clock last Friday night, the entire big auto race program at the Danbury Speed ways in the Danbury Fair Grounds will be held Friday night, July 25 at 8:30 o'clock.
 Topping the card will be the special forty-lap feature which will be run in two sections. Tn the first twenty laps there will be the usual fourteen cars and at the end of this race the slowest six will be sent into the infield while the eight fastest will continue on in an inverted start which means that the last car will be started first and the first car will be in eighth position and so on for the last 20 laps.
 This sort of racing is due to bring out keen competition and the fans will see the fastest driving ever here.
 Director Cappy Lane looks for records to be shattered in some of the seven races in which there will be 116 laps, for the best field of the 1941 season will be on hand.
 Many from Waterbury will jour- ney to the Danbury track to see these thirty daredevils from all parts of the country battle for the big purse offered by c. Stuart Mc- Lean.
 There will be free parking for nearly 5000 cars in the rear of the 5000 grandstand.
