WORDS OF WISDOM

education" said Mr.. Monteith
speaking with the wisdom of the
years.
When the fight got under way,
Armstrong proceeded TO demon
strate his boxing skill. Using a
fast left hand, he made Rileys
nose a crimson smear before the
first round was over. He Jared
him with right crosses in the sec
ond and he was clearly the master
as the third round got under way.
But in the third round Riley
started TO make Monteith look
like a prophet. With stiff punches
TO the body. he slowed Armstrong
down and took the round. He also
took the fourth by using the same
tactics. In the fifth he dropped
Armstrong for four count with
a right 10 the chin that landed
just before the bell.
GOOD FIGHT
II was still a contest In the
seventh however. until Armstrong
missed a right 10 the head. Riley
then landed a right-hand counter
punch high on his opponents head
and Armstrong went down and
out after 5S seconds of fighting

Rates as
Prophet
By CHARLES p. WARD

Before last nights fight at
Arena Gardens, a number of pro-
fessionals were gathered in the
rear of the building trying TO
pick the winner of the windup
between John (Spider) Arm
strong, Canadian veteran, and
Charley Riley of Detroit.
Several members Of the group
selected Armstrong as the prob
able winner. They pointed out
that he was skilled boxer, had
had eight years Of professional
experience and held advantages
of height and reach over his De-
trou opponent.
This argument was duly con-
sidered by William (Scotty) Mon
teith. one time manager OF
former lightweight c h m pi o n
Johnny Dundee, and for m e r
matchmaker at the Olympia and
Madison Square Garden. Monteith
stuck to his contention that Riley,
the younger man and better
puncher. would win.

WATKINS {. WRIGHT

/ Roark said about Mike Waterman
Mikes house Is almost ready for
occupancy" she wrote. It's a per-
feet dream. Early American from
cellar TO attic, and filled with the
most exquisite things you ever saw.
New York's most expensive deco
rator did II for him." And farther
on. she wrote that Mike was plan
ming a house warming-a party to
last for a whole weekend. He's
counting on you and Paul coming
up. and he'll not take no for an
answer. You know Mike!"
Yes. Zoe unused, she knew Mike.
She also knew Paul. And knowing
her husband as she did, she was
afraid he would never consent to 60
back to Washington. especially
upon the strength OF an invitation
from Mike Waterman. She got up,
switched OF the desk light, found
new novel and dropped into a low
chair to read.
But the book lay closed in her
lap. Well, what II Paul did refuse
fatty TO become a guest Of Mike /;
that didn't mean she had to refuse,
did It? No! She closed her eyes and
tried to visualize the house that
Mike had bought-the house that
was an Early American dream.
That" she told herself. lis the sort
Of house l should be living in" And
she hoped that Mike Waterman's
invitation would come soon.
Paul called down from the head
Of the stairs. Don't forget to put
out all the lights, honey. Dimout
applies to us, too, you know"
Yes, know" she said.
"Oh, yes" Paul called out again,
II forgot to tell you that Helen
said the gals were going to doll up.
You can go the limit, if you wish"
Thanks" said Zoe. "You mean
l can doll up like a Christmas tree.
I heard you"
You'd make a cute little Christ
mas tree" Paul said. 'ff anyone
should come along and ask you"
Thanks again."
And since you're being such a
good little girl, I'll blow you to
new frock for the party"
Zoe frightened. A new frock!
One she could take up to Mike
Waterman's housewarming. mo

stepped to the door. "Trot along to
bed now and get your rest. I'll be
up presently to kiss you and tuck
you in"
Better not wait too long" Paul
said. "or Ill be dead to the world"
Paul was right about the evening
being a pleasant one in the old
Miller homestead. 1t was that, and
more. The dinner was one to be re-
membered, Zeke having turned out
one that was nothing less than a
masterpiece. There was interesting
conversation, laughter, a delightful
feeling Of complete camaraderie-
in which even Zoe joined.
And, Paul thought, he had never
seen Helen look lovelier. She wore
a gown which he especially ad-

read 1t once more. 1t was from Mrs.
