 Judith opened her eyes and stared dazedly about the hospital room. At the foot of the bed doctor and nurse watched her anxiously. She had slept for 24 hours, a sleep of exhaustion encouraged by sedative the doctor had given her
 She rose slowly to the surface of consciousness. Then suddenly all the events of the night on the boat came back to her.

 You must be very careful" she insisted.
 You are sick girl" put in the physician, bending over her at- tentively.
 Judith pressed her lips together and pulled herself back against the pillows. She looked at the doctor defiantly.

 He nodded "I'll do it right away, Miss Kingsly Now you rest and have some food. You haven't eaten in the last "A hours, you know"

Compo and Iannotti battled

thought Compo had slight edge.
Critics Like Joe
Over the longer distance, Compo
figures that he will have the ad-
vantage, but many Of the boxing
critics ,hereabouts claim that Com
pos defeat at the hands of Willie
Pep recently, took too much out of
the latter. However, Compo has
been known to make great come

Havre De Grace, April 10 - GU.
p Wrapping up few loose
threads:
Baseball - Golly, isn't it about
time somebody demanded that the
Boston Braves submit to saliva
tests? That four-game winning
streak Is the longest New England
has enjoyed since Frank Leahy
packed up at Boston College and
headed for Notre Dame, The re-
markable thing about 1t all Is that
Casey Stengel, chief Of the slap
happy Warriors has needed only
five pitchers in four contests. The
Braves haven't been exactly belt
ing the ball out Of the park, but on
defense they've been stingier than
the gents in charge of tire ration
ing. 1t may be the miracle Of the
age, but the truth is Boston has
gwen up only seven runs in SO in
nings. Last year, seven runs were
par for nine innings.
Alice Snubbed
Tennis - The career critics who
SO willingly rushed into print with
condemnation Of Jack Kelly's ply
steal fitness program have been re-
markedly reluctant to speak even
oen word Of praise In behalf of Alice
Marble. AS you have read, this
greatest of all women tennis players
has gone broke trying to preach the
gospel Of clean living. Had she
been so inclined, she could easily
have managed to attach herself to
the government payroll In some
capacity or other. Instead, she ask
ed no favors or patronage. She went
to work without asking even Ques-
tons. Like Joe Louis, she has
proven the universal truth OF an old
maxim-that the true champion is a
champion always.
Horseracing - II you have any
lingering doubts as to what 1t takes
to become popular man at the
tracks, consider the case of Don
Meade. Normally, the pinch-faced
little. veteran Is greeted with more
boos than a Republican evokes at a
Democratic rally and vice versa. At
the moment, he would win a popu-
larity contest by reclamation. The
reasons: In the past eight days he
has booted home II Jamaica win
ners. The form players are raking In
the coin with shovels, begging auto
graphs and strewing his path with
roses. Win or lose, 1t is doubtful If
any jockey drives himself harder
than Meade. His success in making
good his comeback has changed
him a bit personally, too. He has
mellowed to surprising degree and
no longer wears sheer In sslf de-
Tense.

NELSON SCALED
HEIGHTS IN 1887

In 1885, he won the New Jersey
Open against Craig Wood, Johnny
Farrell and Vic Ghezzi. He added
the important Metropolitan Open
title.
Nelson became Lord Byron in
1887. He won the Masters, the $l2,-
900 Belmont in Massachusetts, went
to England with the Ryder Cup team
and COPIED the qualifying medal in
the p. G. A.
Nelson calls 1888 an off-year. He
finished fifth in the National Open
at Denver when he skied to a 8 on
the fifth hole and a on the 18th.
In 1889, Byron gained his top
triumph when he won the National
Open at Spring Mill in Philadelphia
after a double playoff with Wood
and Denny Shute.
He is professional today at Tole-
do, O., Inverness Club, is spending

ly, finishes his round and keeps

PATIENCE, STAMINA,
GOODNESS, COURAGE
Ask him to name the most i'm
portant factors in the game, and
he'll call them off in this order: Pa
tience, stamina, GOODNESS, courage
and competitive urge.
Rated by Tommy Armour as "the
best I've ever SEEN" his iron game
is particularly sound. He is usually
string straight off the tee and, al
though his putter was ice at Angus
ia this year, generally reliable on
the green.
Had he been sharp on the carpet
he never was below 80 puts a
round-Byron Nelson would have set
a record for the Augusta National
course that the masters would be
shooting at for years to come.

CHOCOLATE BAR
WAS HIS LUNCH

He worked indefatigably over his
game, studied the experts, kept his
ears open, kept on swinging. The
pickings were lean when he turned
professional in 1882. They called
him the Candy Kid because he
often nibbled chocolate bar on the
course. They didn't realize he was
making 1t do for lunch.
His first purse was $75 in the
Texarkana Open, but when he hi
the California circuit, his net was
$3.50, earned In the Los Angeles
Open.
Nelson had confidence in himself,
however, and when he returned
married Louise Shofner and became
pro at Texarkana. Dick Grout and
Bobby Cruickshank Strengthened out
his grip and in 1895, when he moved
to Ridgewood, N. j., George Jacobus
made him use an upright instead
of a flat swing.
