HeiImann's Luck

Everyone knows or HeIllnann =
past proweSs as a baseball slugGer,
but Carmichael recalls one inci-
dent that took place in the British
officers club somewhere in Iraq.
The theme hinges around a some
what captivating sport played with
dice.
The BritonS were having .
game in their quarters and He'll
mann, valued visitor, was
asked to squat in. When the
slugger got the dice he peeled
off n succession of 'naturaIs'
that had the British in quite .
state.
Eventually a ma jor said. Mr..
Heilmann. this is too, too truly
phenomenal, but I will wager
$50 more against you
Harry came out with a sir
and then dropped the dice in q
drinking glass. This Is just in
case you may think 1 know any,
thing about them. Now, gentle
men, l will take 10 TO ! and 7
will bet that l make six the
hard way--two threes--on my
next toss
Three of our loyal allies
promptly came up with S1O0 To
cover $40 bills from Hellmann's
pocket. Harry ratified the gias.
and threw-two threes. The ma
jOr glanced at the dice, looked
at Heilmann, then bowed from
the waist.
Marvellous he said, and
good evening, sir"

Too Much Praise

All of this has happened IN
few, short weeks. And il causes
one TO wonder how much OF il
Leroy Willis is taking seriously.
The lean kid seems TO have his
feet on the ground. But it is in
spots like these that managers
worry. And rightly so.
Despite the Fontaine victory.
Willis still has miles to go before
he is anything like a fighter OF
championship csliber. And when
he goes into OlYnpia's ring
thinking about how it will feel
when finally he is champion
of the world and can bask in
such glory-well. there isn't
thing wrong with this kind OF
long-diStance thinking that few
good left hooks and right crosses
won't cure. =,

PURSES HELD TIP

Not to be outdone, John J.

purses Of the participants in three
bouts.
Managerial troubles was the
commissioners reason for holding
up the pay of Willie Barrow and
Odell Riley.
Barrow won a referees decision
in eight rounds. The bout was a
dull affair. 1t seems that two or
more managers are making claim
to the contractural rights to Riley.
In the other two 'holdups"
HettChe indicated a suspicion Of
collusion. The commissioner suS-
poets that Miguel Arroyo who
knocked out Solly Sanchez in the
second round of a scheduled six
round affair, might belong to the
same stable. a stable that features
fighters of Mexican descent.

Under the mechanics Of such
plan, victory gardeners could
bring their products in bushel
baskets to the center, and by
paying from five to seven cents
a quart, take them home fully
preserved by scientific methods.
Krone described canning cen.
ter operations elsewhere, espec-
tally in Southern States, and ad-
mitted that a deficit is possible
in the first year or two. He es-
timated an initial equipment cost
of 500 to $4,000 and installa-
ton costs Of $3.50 to $400. En-
phasizing the necessity for q CEN
ter here, Krone pointed out that
many victory gardeners, at
tempting to increase production,
are unable to obtain home pre-
serving equipment, and some are
not qualified to use such equip
ment economically and for best
results.
Both "new" and "old" COM
