again in the Hollywood night spots and the
sock market showed big upswing Pat like
a shrewd race track operator, played no IA
vorites. He cast his lot with the field. And
on what a field,
More beauty was draped on his arm than
ever passed before the eyes of that peerless
picker of puchritudinous patooties the great
Flo Ziegfeld himself. Good lockers seemed to
gravitate TO Punching Pasquae. His charm
ing Latin manners and the ease with which
he flattened jealous hecklers awakened some
thing primitive in the fluttering hearts Of the
blase beauties of the cinema citadel.
II Pat had fistic encounters in the night
clubs, II didn't mean that he went around
with chip Of a chicken bone on his shoulder.
His success with the fair sex which came 10
him seemingly without effort on his part,
naturally aroused resentment in the breasts
of those who were less successful in lamour.
There were instances, however, in which Pats
warm Latin temperament, made hotter by
that potent Chicken Cacciatore, at the
bottom of the brawl.
This seems to have been the case in Feb
ruary 1887, when Pasquale punched Dan
Topping, his cacciatore companion Of the re-
cent pot episode, and Sherman d. Stearns,
New York investment broker Topping was
having drink or two with Airline Judge, in
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1942-05-17

II did" said Joyce
From that point on there are two versions
Of what happened Joyce said that as soon
as he admitted he had talked to di Cicco. the
Cacciatore Kid brought right up from the
floor and hung it on his chin, knocking him
over a desk and chair.
Pats story was that Joyce ran at him with
right fist raised to strike him. (imagine
Irishman leading with his rightD as he APP
preached the desk and that he merely stuck
out his left which stopped Joyce in his
tracks Then he said, he delivered his famous
cacciatore right cross which laid Joyce in the
waste basket
Anyway. the end of the argument found
Pat still without pot to cook in. Despite
this handicap, the Toppings put as fine
Interpretation Of chicken cacciatore as ever
has been performed this side OF Napoh. while
summonses were being served on the brawlers
mot to be confused with broilers used in the
caCciatore.)
Di Cicco was swamped with fan mail when
the pot brawl aired in the papers next
morning. Oddly enough, no one asked for his
autographed photo even his autograph.
Practically every letter writer demanded to
know why di Cicco didn't do some fighting
for his country since he liked to fight so
much.
This was moro than the proud scion of the
Astoria di Cccos could stand So after York
Vile Court had dismissed the charge Of simple
assault brought against him by Joyce Pat

critical letters and the chicken cacciatore

Park Ave. few doors down the avenue from
the Drake. Finding Mr. and Mrs Ben Finney
Of the cafe society set there ahead OF them
making a social call on the Toppings, tall
handsome wavy-haired Pat suggested mess
Of chicken cacciatore by way Of celebrating
the occasion.
1T leaves corned beef and cabbage al the
post in the gustatorial stakes said Pat who
got in the habit OF bandying about four-dollar
words while hanging around with actors in
Hollywood.
Dan Topping, who five years ago lost
decision to d Ccco in the Glover Club, Holly
wood, with Airline Judge looking on, but came
out the winner anyway by marrying Airline
over whom the fight was staged wasn't the
man to say no to di Cicco in quest of
chicken cacciatore. So he said:
"Okay Pat you get the pot and I'll furnish
the chicken" Handsome Dan has always
been able TO get the chickens. He married
petite Sonia soon after he was divorced from
Airline Judge.
III Cicco forthwith called his hotel and
asked for the loan of a 10-quart aluminium
cooking pot. Peter Joyce the room clerk, who
answered the phone in a delightful brogue
which made to order for the day, said
he'd take the matter up with one of his
periors. The verdict which Joyce presently
reported back TO di Cicco over the phone was
that, not to st. Patrick himself would the
hotel loan one of its pots. Thercupon some
sharp words about the relative merits Of the
Irish and the Italians were banded back and
forth over Mr.. Bells invention.
You're Irish jerk" Joyce claims di
CCco said TO him.
LAS for you" the hotel clerk allegedly re-
torted. you're just Mountain Guinea"
After that the wires got so hot, the con-
nection melted.
Before you could wiring a chickens neck as
the first step in making a mess Of chicken cac-
ciatore, di Cicco came bounding into the Drake
and demanded 10 know who had talked with
him on the phone a few minutes previously.

always ready TO put in the rap for a fellow
who got TO the top fast are suggesting now
that the reason the Government didn't grab
such a noted warrior right in his tracks was
that Pat stipulated that he wouldn't be inter
ested in anything lower than brigadier gen
erals commission. This is a gross libel Pat
asked no favors but enlisted as a buck pri-
vate. He didn't even demand a written guar
antee that he would get chicken cacciatore
for his Sunday dinner at Fort Riley Kansas
Pat di Cicco was born in Astoria l. L. So
years ago His father, Pasquale. came here
from Italy in 1886 and soon after his arrival
laid the foundation for his familys financial
security by taking advantage Of his discovery
that there was no broccoli in America
Pasquale di Cicco ST., sent TO Italy for
shipment Of broccoli seed, planted il in his
market gardens in the Astoria meadows and
soon there were two heads of broccoli for
every pot every cacciatore pot. that u.s.

explain how the unfoundcd rumor
started that ne wanted 10 be moth

Broccoli didn't interest Pat when
he attended his last college and de-
cided ne had been educated enough

him foreign car in which TO drive
TO the Coast 20 start his career.

Pat and Gloria were married in the old
Santa Barbara mission on Dec. 20, last. AT
the pre-nuptial party flung in Hollywood's
Cafe Mocambo the night before the knot was
tied, there was brawl in which, strangely
enough. di Cicco was an innocent bystander
It seems that someone made disparaging
remark about Prince Mike Romanoffs title
which Mike the former Brooklyn pants pres

Several guests were rolling on the floor
before the brawlers were parted b1t di Cicco
wasn't one Of them. Some thought this was
the tipoff that the Cacciatore KID had hung
UP his gloves and relinquished the night club
championship.
LAffaire Chicken Caccatore at the Drake
on ST. Patrick's Day proves this conclusion to
have been premature. But the suit for $780,

Ernie Boggs suffered his first

that were hard to overcome.
Jerry Geyer again turned in
very fine job of short-stopping. In

The first half of the Prince
Georges County Baseball League
race ended last Sunday with three
teams locked in a tie for first
place. The Greenbelt Shamrocks,
Stanleigh Inn of Riverdale, and
Maryland Sport Club of Piney
Grove will have to fight it out for
the half crown.
The Shamrocks dropped their
first two league games to STAN
leigh Inn and Oxon Hill but have
come on fast to cop eight straight
decisions.
Maryland Sport Club was in
second place most of the race,
having lost only to Stanleigh Inn.
Then they were knocked off by
the Shamrocks, who tied them in
league standing by that action.
Stanleigh Inn was undefeated
until the Big Green edged them
to 1 recently. June % found
the Riverdale boys with but eight
eligible players and the necessity
of forfeiting to Armstrong-Roney.
