Bv JACK CUDDY

NEW YORK. Feb. l tUP) - It
was a great but doubtful day for
the intelligentsia of tin ear terrace
as they trickled into the lavishly
appointed Jansen suite of the Wal
dorf Astoria to see what their own
bully boy, Mickey walker, had been
doing as an artist-stretching pic
lures instead Of opponents on
canvas.
As the bright lights blazed over
the reception exhibition of Is pic
lures painted by Walker, former
welterweight d middleweight
champion. barrel-bodied Tony Ga
lento rolled in.
Before Tony could get to free
drink, a sweet blonde young thing
from Click magazine (Which put on
the exhibition grabbed him and
inquired:
"Mr. Galento-what do you think
Of art?"
Galento said, Il think he's the
worst referee"
A sports writer interVened, and
explained that Galento apparently
was talking about Art Donovan, the
referee.
The sweet young thing then cor
rallied Willie Gutenberg of Newark,
N j., manager of the WelterWeight
champion Red Cochrane. She ask
ed bushy-haired Willie if he didn't
think Walkers art display was
magnificent.
Willie said. 1t is not only mag
nificent, but it is also smart.
Mickey has painted such big pic
lures that nobody can walk out
with them under their overcoats.

Attack
Ducks

In an effort to make the ducks
feed during the afternoons and
not during the nights when they
ravage growing crops in Imperial
county, game wardens declared
war against the nearly half-million
ducks in the state game refugees
Sunday and are continuing attacks
this week.
Capt. H. C. Jackson of the State
Game Wardens and Frank Burns
of BraWley told the Post-PreSS
Monday afternoon that on orders
from the state game commission
they are keeping the ducks flying
above the refugees. Heavy concen-
trations Of the birds are scattered
during the day in order to force
them to feed when farmers can
drive them from their fields. Farm
ers have complained that the ducks
are causing increasing damage to
growing crops in the valley because
they feed at night when 1t IS al
most impossible to scatter them.
Seven Wardens invaded the refuge
OuIludy anu pNSoii pJo-
tematically keeping the birds in
flight and the air above the refuge
was darkened by criSS- -croSSing
flight of birds moving restlessly
through the skies. The Wardens
report they are trying also TO keep
the ducks from the fields as much
as possible.
1t is not the intention to UNI
necessarily kill the ducks and the
main efforts are directed toward a
bombardment designed to keep the
birds in the air.
Capt. Jackson and Warden Burns
said that the sprigs are well under
migration now but the Virgins arc
doing the most damage.
Farmers are asked to aid the
wardens in determining the CROP
damage, by observing the results of
this new method of frightening
them from the refuge. 1t is be-
lieved the breaking up of the ducks
into lesser concentrations will prove
less damaging to fields.

CONFUSING ISN'T IT
For example, the first man up
could get to first base in the con-
ventional manner-hit the ball and
arrive before the fielders could
throw him out. The second man
could get a base on balls, electing
to go to third. giving the offensive
team men on first and third.
The next batter could sacrifice
both of his teammates-putting
them on second. The cleanup mans
single would, if he ran the usual
way, put two men on first and one
on third.
