(Reg. U. s. Pat. OR.)
 By HARRY FERGUSON fTInlkAd PrAsa RmMsska Ediknrl

New York, Oct. 2o-- (UP)-It'E pretty hard to make yourself heard above the shouting of the football fans these days, but the boys who think brain bashing is the best of all sports keep screaming that they have 0 good one on tap in Madison Square Garden this Friday evening.
 They may be right at that. Come 10 D. m. Friday they will take the wraps of Q young Negro named Ray Robinson to find out whether he really is in the great tradition of Joe Cans and Henry Armstrong or whether he is just another Hash that burns out quickly.
 So far the, kid has done plenty of flashing. He is tall, rangy, quick as a cat and a hard puncheH. He has had 1i4 fights as amateur and professional and there is not even Q draw on the books against him. He has won 'eTn all.
 Acid Test
 Some of Robinsons competition hasn't been anything to worry him into nervous breakdown, but that situation is going to be taken care of, too. This time they are sending him against wise, tough, scared old Eritze Ziyic, former weltetweight champion, who knows all the an- swers and can make up new ones if necessary.
 There seem to be two possible chinks In Robinson'S armor, One IS that nobody knows whether he can take punch downstairs" as the boys say--meaning whether body punishment slows him down. No- body knows because 90 far the kid has been so much better than his opponents that he hasn't had to worry about taking anything. He's too busy dishing 1t out.
 The other is that he seems to be inclined to do considerable of his roadwork on Harlem dance floors on the theory that the same muscles are involved in the execution oE 6 left jab and the Conga.
 Zivic is about the best citizen that could be found to test the theory that Robinson is vulnerable. He throws Q INT left hook to the body moves around with the assurance of man who has been in the business for years and can take @ lot of seeking on the jaw before starting trip to never-never land. Zivic also clings to the theory that it is the seferee's job to detect violations of tee rules and anything the ref cree doesn't see is, ipSo factO, legal Consequently, there have been times when Zivic has borrowed Britain's slogan of thumbs up." He ups and puts his thumbs into his opponents eyes which can be embarrassing, not to say painful.
 Up or Down
 The thing that is going to draw the customers is that they know they will be on either the start oi a sensational climb to the boxins heights or they will see a promising career smashed. Robinson hal reached the point where he can't stand still. From now on its eithei upward to big things or back to thG small clubs from where he came 6 few months ago.
 If the course is upward, put Rob. inson down as your next welter. weight champion. The distance 1! only 10 rounds Friday evening ant no title Is at stake, but If Robinson gets past zivic there Is nobody ir the welterweight division that car stop him.
 That Is why 15,000 fans will b. there. They want to be Christophel Columbuses in the discovery of what may be the rings next sensation.

Romance

BY HELEN ROWLAND

ONE THING that no woman
over forty can stand from a
man, these days, says Aunt
Belle, is Difference.
That Hamilton Woman" is
just another screen play which
proves that it is the women a
man has won or lost, not the
battles he won or lost, that the.
world remembers most wildly.
"HOW CAN YOU TELL
whether it's love or just a
Spring infatuation - or is there
any difference ?" asks Roy C.
Lots of difference! Love is a
tonic; infatuation is a dope.
Love is the homing instinct of
the heart; infatuation is the
hunting instinct of the imagi-
nation. Love wants to give; in
fatuation demands. But there is
practically no difference in the
way they make your head go
around.
THIS Is THE TIME of year
when a boy starts out to find
a girl who will stimulate his
courage and make a ! IAN of him
and so often ends by falling
for the first girl who tickles his
vanity and makes a fool of him.
Aunt Belle says you are mid
dle-aged If you can remember
way back to the quaint old days
when girl could go driving all

getting an inferiority complex II
he didn't try to kiss her.

couple in it and hung on to 1t until Mulhern pulled him into his boat
 Monday evening is usually very quiet evening as far as visitors at Lake Quassapaug are concerned, the usual crowd being comprised of rol- Ter skaters, but last night was an exception. Cars loaded with cllri- ous sightseers dropped out to watch the police drag the waters and to get good look at the craft respon- sible for the sad happening. The boat had been docked at the pier where the Park speedboat always docks.
 State Trooper John DunpHy, g To- cal man, is in charge of the case. He has been assisted by State Troop CTS Edward Christian, Norman Da- wis and Angelo Buffa, Constahlea Squire and Walter Folgmann, and Sergeant George Chatfield and Pa trolman John "Jinugles' Donafue of the Waterbury Police department.
 CaireIli told The Democrat last evening that $500 in cash, mostly made up of $2O bills, was lost by him in the spill. The money has not been recovered. He told police he saw the wad of bills on the water after he saw his pal, Fanucci, come up to the surface and disappear. He did not see Turzo at all after the mishap.
 The lad also added that there had been three life preservers in the boat and that Ttrz0 had his arm in one of them when the boat capsized.
 Fanucci Is survived by his par- ents, Mr.. and Mrs. William Fan tlcci, one brother, Charles of Pal- timore, and two sisters, Betty and Baldina, both of Rockville, Penn.
 Turzo is survived by his parents, MT. and Mrs. Antonio Turzo, two brothers, Armand and Michael and four sisters, Gemma, Susan, Mary and Julia.

Cairelli, interviewed by Demo- crat reporter, denied that~tiS craft was overturned by the launch used to take sightSeeers about the lake. He said that a wave suddenly came to overturn the boat but only d moment before he had noticed that no other speedboats were near.
 In describing his miraculous es- cape from fate, of two companions, Antonio Turzo, 20, of l37 Bradley avenue, and William Fa11ucci, B, of 59O Sylvan avenue, Caireln stated that the latter could swim, but that the fOrzner, like himself, could not. Cairelli, however, did stick to his original story that a wave was re- spcnsible for upsetting the boat, but that it was not a wave from the parks speedboat.
 Rumor around the lake last even- ing was to the effect that Cair- elli purchased the boat about three weeks ago from 8 fellow at Bantam Lake after the boat had been in- volved in an almost near fatality at that site. However, he told The Democrat, Constable Squires and Manager Leon last night that he did purchase the boat from a man in Winsted, but refused to give his name, and f1atly denied that his boat was the same one reputedly involved in that Bantam Like mis- hap.
 Edward Hauser, of Waterbury, . deaf mute, and Louis Spino, who operates the roller skating rink at the lake, spent considerable time Sunday afternoon and early Sunday evening diving in an effort to To- cate the bodies, but all in vain. State police, however, yesterday would permit no one to dive. Sev- eral Brooklyn pals of the drowned youths came out to the loke during the day and offered to dive, but their requests were dnied.
 Jim Mulhern had the lakes speed boat at the scene of the accident all night Sunday and for IA hours yesterday assisting state police in dragging the lake for the boys bodies. Despite the steady down. pour of rain he volunteered to remain throughout the day until il o'clock last evening when state police called halt to the search JIn- til bright and early this morning when the dragging process re- stunned.
 Mulhern told The Democrat last night that his boat had been docked at its usual place when the acci- dent happened and that he was sitting nearby at the ticket office. As soon as he realized what had happened he jumped into the boat and headed for the scene of the accident to lend whatever assist ance he could. Cairello, when he arrived, had grasped the end of a paddle boat with an unidentified

gles.
 Residents of Sylvan avenue are indeed saddened by the accident which befell their neighbor, Arthur Frageau. It was very unfortunate that MT. Frageau should be the one struck down on his way to his home, a path he travelled so often - between the Community House and his front door.
 Those sitting on their front porcheS have noticed time and time again the speedway being made or Sylvan Ave, between the entrance to the park and Wells street-in the first place it happens to be the largest spot on the road, when ever the front lights of the Com munity House do not happen to be lighted. There are street lights but they do not seem to brighten LID that part of the road, whether it is the foliage of the trees that makes 1t or not, it is hard to fig ure out.
 Members of the Community Club have been remarking at their meet ings that we have not adequate po- lice protection in this part of the city, for a long time, and now that an accident has occurred-which of course is taking care of locking the barn. after the horse is stolen, we will be getting all kinds of at tention. Residents of Sylvan Ayes and in fact all neighbors of the Frageau family. extend them their deepest sympathy and hope MT. Frageau will be spared to his fam- fly. I Richard Scadden of Whillesey av- enue spent the weekend at Cres- cent Beach, New London, Conn.
 MT. and Mrs. Henry Koch have returned from their wedding trip and are at home to their friends at 14O Sylvan avenue.
 Regular business meeting of the Washington Park Community club will be held this evening at the Community House at S:l5. A great many of the members are working nights now and it does seem as though some other night, when in- terested members were not work ing, would be more suitable for meeting night to hold meetings. at least for the time being and this discussion will be in order tonight.
 St. Francis Xavier c. Y. O. base ball team will play St. Lucy's team at Washington Park diamond, at 6 o'clock, Wednesday evening, Aug ust 30th.
 Edwin O'Dea of Laval street and Francis Kane of Baldwin street, are in New York city today to witness the baseball game between St. Louis and Brooklyn, playing at Ebbets Field.
