earnings for two years of racing to

$500 third place money. lifted his

It was the second time the Sab

whipped the Chicago champ by

Now Juvenile Title Threat.
The performance Of Count Fleet
In the 72d running Of the Cham
payne, which annually is the first
stake over the mile route for q
year-olds, stamped him as the liv-
est kind of threat to the juvenile
honors which up to now have been
split between occupation and Devils s
Thumb. Under Johnny Longden' S
handling. he lit out of the gate in

Brisk Bout Promised
As Brooks Battles
Blake Tomorrow

Lou Brooks will be in fine fettle
when he tees of on AL Blake tomor-
row night In the feature match OF
the regular weekly ring show at
Turner's Arena because he belted out
one Howard (Red) Bush in three
rounds last Friday night at Will
mington.
Whether Blake has had workout
as recently as that isn't known, but
the scarcity of ring talent is keeping
most of the hands busy at their
chosen profession. Both are indus
trious boys, however, and may be
counted on for a rousing struggle.
Brooks record shows wins over
Herbie Katz and other fair-to-mid-
ding talent while Blake is rated q
good catcher and is remembered
here as pretty good puncher.
The supporting card includes Paul
Komar, outstanding amateur heavy
weight from McKeesport, Pa, who
will battle Ted Cole, a soldier from
Aberdeen, in a six-rounder.
Ken Stribling. local colored mid :
dleweight, will box Oakie Greer OF
Baltimore and Lew Hanbury will
meet an opponent yet to be selected
in other skies.
A special added attraction pairs
Roscoe Perry, colored battler, against
Roy Lewis, . cunning southpaw.

through June was the means of
livelihood for the 700 natives.
A few months after the start of
the war game fishing enthusiasts
were few and far between; the
spring tuna tournament, rated as
the greatest competitive fishing in
the world. was called off: and those
Miami shippers making the little
island their headquarters drifted
back to the mainland, one by one,
to join up for the duration.
Little Land Is Tillable.
On Bimini, or any of the islands,
very little of the land is tillable. On
the few planted acres are raised
yams and pidgeon peas, which with
turtles, crawfish and fish, and pos
sibly wild plums or cocoanut for
desert, is the sole food of the island
ers now. They never acquired a
taste for luxuries.
The simple pieces of clothing,
washed and starched until one won-
ders how they manage to wear them,
wore out piece by piece so that any
sort of clothes were needed as much
as food.
That, as nearly as we can picture
it, was the condition of the lovable
folk on this little neighbor island
OF ours until 1t came to the attention
Of Don Mccarthy, guiding light of
the Miami Beach Rod and Reel
Club. He brought the light of faith
and hope back to the islanders
through old clothes. -four, meal and
canned goods collected from club
members. But it was not enough.
The story, however, had reached
out IN one way and another until
Bimini anglers up and down the
coast were sending in money, clothes
and miscellaneous items. Don and
several club members, running on
their own tires and with short ra-
tions OF gas were picking up bundles
from every section of Miami.
Miami Is Bountiful.
A church made donation of
clothing. The Miami Bundles for
Britain turned in all the clothing
too light to be sent overseas. And
Just this week Miami laundry took
over the Job Of picking up the dona-
tions, so that now the Bimmi Relief
Pool nearly is adequate for immedi-
ate needs.

PRINCESS ANNE WARNS
FUEL OIL TANK OWNERS

Guard your fuel oil tank, is the
watchword of the day in Princess
Anne, where several property owners
have already reported thefts of the
precious and strictly rationed, liquid
fuel.
Thieves last week were busy visit
ing conveniently located outside fuel
oil tanks and draining them.
Mr.. Clarence w. Phillips was one
of the first local residents to report
the loss of II gallons from the outside
tank at the back of his office build
ing occupied by the County Farm Sc
curity Administration on Main street.
With others, the residents of the Hay
man Apartments at the corner OF
Main and Prince William streets, also
reported loss of oil from their tanks.
Members of the County War Price
and Rationing Board, in discussing
the thefts this week said that they
had as yet no rulings on the subject
but that undoubtedly some provision
would be made for the fuel oil users
whose oil had been stolen, since the
rationing system had already reduced
the users supply by from 25 per cent
to 33 per cent.
