Common sense should tell us
that there IS a limit 10 former
jockeys--thst. even II they re-
produced like the oyster, and
were protected by months with
out an r in them, former jock
eys could not be so plentiful
In this particular instance
even a casual survey Of his girth
should have told us that this
Hungarian had never been
jockey. unless II had been back
in the days when dinosaurs and
mastodons were the vogue, and
a 3-year-old orough bre d
thought nothing OF picking up
200 or 300 pounds in weight
THE first good thing cur Hun
Il garian friend put Us on was

name--a cor called Tolarin. We
went for a mess Of pengos
Tolarin broke fifteenth in
field of Is and under stout
urging by his jockey maintained
that position throughout There
were moments when Tolarin
threatened To become sixteenth
in a field of Is.
THE jockey wasn't trying"
he said IN an accent so thick
that a stocky midget could have
walked on IT without begging
down.

night fell and he was left alone

The reference TO woods per-

IT, and the horses ran for quite
A while before they emerged
into view.
After we had lost four
straight races our Hungarian
expert suggested that we visit
the paddock and watch the
horses being saddled.
1t was here that we got our
first close range view of Hun
garian jockeys. They all look
like Gary Cooper. only they
are taller.

while q Warren township
mother watched flames cause
damage estimated at $25, 900 to
a shed of the Lancaster Lumber
company at 71o1 East Eight Mile
road at 2 p. m. Monday, her two
boys were being rescued when
fire broke out in her own home
nearby.
The m o her, Mrs. Frances
Kollassa, did not know of the
near tragedy until Clarence
Paulson, a., a Warren township
meter reader, had pulled the
boys, Donald, Z, and Kenneth, 2,
from bedroom where they had
been sleeping.
Donald was treated for first
degree burns and Kenneth was
uninjured. An overheated stove
caused an estimated $1,000 dam
age to the Kollassee home be-
fore the flames were extinguish-
ed by the Center Line firemen,
called because other apparatus
was used to fight the lumber
shed fire.
The Warren township fire de-
partment and one from Detroit
fought the lumber blaze for two
hours before bringing it under
control. Cause Of the fire was
undetermined, cord ing to

i'm Iceland =

LONDON, Oct. 20 -B -
The United States Nays air
force operating from Iceland has
made its first definite claim of q
U-boat kill, reporting the accur-
ate bombing Of q submarine by
a Catalina flying boat, the Brit
ish Air Ministry said today.
A few hours after the bomb
ing, the report said, the U-boat's
crew Of SO abandoned their sink
ing submarine and went aboard
an Icelandic fishing boat. It said
an Allied destroyer later captur-
ed them.
The report by the Air Minis
try's News Service said the Cat
alma caught the U-boat on the
surface and its filters saw the
Germans in the Coming Tower
gesticulating wildly.
Accurately placed bombs
threw up columns of water on
both sides Of the submarine
which was lifted almost entirely
out of the water, 1t said.
"We made two runs" said the
Catalina's captain, firing our
guns as we went. The sub re-
piled with cannon and machine
guns but didn't do us any dam
age"

ST. CLAIR SHORES - Told
that the zoot-suit gang planned
another riot at the Sugar Bowl
Monday night, st. Clair Shores
police gathered outside the juke

erroneous.
The zoot-suiters, all Detroit

of their members had been beat
en- there the previous evening.
Arraigned before Justice Jack
Fistler, all received stiff fines or
Jail sentences.
Shores police were notified
that the zoot-suiters left a Mack
avenue restaurant in Crosse
Pointe Woods at 11:08 p. m.
headed for the Sugar Bowl. 9th
err Macomb county police units
were notified to stand by but
nothing happened.

(R)-The king - of American

after the war!
King Emil Mitchell, 85-year-
old Brazilian-born leader of his
colorful wanderers, was laid to
rest here at sunset Monday with
ancient ceremonies that included
S. rinkling of fruit Juice and
coins on his grave.
An acting king, j. o. Frank

until after the war. The tribes

they chose King Emil nearly 60

with their king, relatives said,
were several changes of clothing
and few pieces of silver.
The 7O-year-old queen, Mrs.
Lapa Mitchell, the kings second
wife, was unable to attend the
funeral because Of illness.
Born under tent in Rio De
Janeiro, Mitchell died under an
other tent Friday at Llbertville,
Ala. Mike Wilson Mitchell, IS,
who died Saturday night at
Houston, Miss. was buried be-
side him.
Mitchell landed at New Or
leans with his roaming parents
when he was five, and became
king in 1884, the year he OBJ
tanned American citizenship. Big,
white-moustached, he travelled
over the world, and was known
to tens Of thousands.
Acting King Tank, 5O-year-
old father of four children, is
q native of Cleveland, Ohio, and
of Spanish and Choctaw Indian
descent. He is q Mason and is

Only the war, it was explain
ed, prevented the American gyp-
sizes from giving their leader a
funeral like that for his first
wife, who died in 1915. Then q
special train brought gypsies
from all over the country, three
bands supplied music. and the
queen was buried here in a gold
casket.
This time there was no music,
only sobs from rs relatives and
from some of the hundreds of

CHARCOAL FUEL
Trucks are now being fitted

Road transportation has been

During the past year, when
Boisson returned from Vichy, he
called in Colonial administrators
and planters and relayed OF them
an appeal from Ma.shal Henri
Philippe Petain to help feed
France through the critical arm
istice period.
The planters produced a heavy
harvest but it created a grave
problem. Huge piles of cotton,
hides, peanuts, cocoanuts, dried
fish and meats, coffee. cocoa and
vegetable oils were left to rot
because they could not be taken
to market or because after
reaching Dakar they could not
get through the blockade.
In the meantime, the shelves
O.. Dakar merchants have been
stripped Of textiles and manufae-
tured imports.
The problem involves two
risks--First, that the planters
may lose fortunes in rotting
stocks; second, that the natives
who are naturally lazy will re-
duce their efforts because they
lack the incentive of such mall
ufactures as bright cloths, alarm
clocks, mirrors and combs.
The latter serve to satisfy ma
tive vanity.

This years harvest was al
