Walker Rated Choice
To Beat StribIing in
Fiqht Tomorrow

A pair of hashy middleweights,
Philadelphia's Johnny Walker, au-
thor of a decision over Smuggy
Hursey and knockout over Ossie
(Bulldog) Harris, and Ken Stribling,
local colored boxer who Is undefeated
in seven starts this year, take the
feature roles tomorrow night at
Turner's Arena in a 10-round fight.
The Philadelphia boy is literally
fighting his way through college. He
is attending Temple where he is a
pre-med student and the time
spent at his studies has not detracted
from his boxing, for under the wing
of Manager Chris Dundee and with
Midget Wolgast in his corner,
Walker figures to win the match.
Walker, who won his first II pro-
fessional bouts by knockouts, served
with the 34th Squadron of the Army
Air Forces during the war and kept
up his fighting career. Among his
Knockout victims are George Doty
Wickey Harkins, Waddell Washing
ton and Carl Dell. He also has met
Jake La Motta and PHILIPS favorite,
Blackjack Billy Fox.
Only few weeks ago Stribling
beat Irish Billy Cooper and will be
looking for his eighth consecutive
win tomorrow night.
Knockouts over Joltdn' Joe Gan
non and Frank Sweeney have made
this an ideal year for the lanky
Stribling. If he wins this fight,
the Turner management wants to
pit him against Bee Bee Wash
ington.

We took them into the house and
nut them in a box. One had bro
ken leg and another a broken wing,
hut the others seemed to be all right.
They were all covered with soft gray
down.
We thought that, being birds OF
prey, they might like the horse meat
we had for the dogs. At first, when
we tried to feed them, they would
bite and claw at us. But in a few
days, when they found that we were
not going to hurt them, they became
tame and would accept food.
Daddy made them cage with a
wire floor and top and board across
the bottom for a table. In a few
weeks, they had a good coat OF
brown feathers. They were really
pretty.
BY this time, the two Oldest that
weren't hurt were able to fly. One
got away and flew into neighbor' S
plum tree, but she got it and brought
it back to us. We exercised them
on string after that.

Third Stringer Sparks
Cornell 10 2S-21E Edge
Over Princeton
ey the Associofed Press

PRINCETON, N. j., Oct. 25.-Cor-
nell's big red football team spotted
Princeton two touchdowns in the
early moments today and then rose
to a 1921 triumph over the bewil-
dered Tigers on the throwing arm
of Lynn Dorset, a 22-year-old third
string quarterback.
A crowd of $4,000 which turned up
in Palmer Stadium for the 3lst re-
newal of this Ivy League rivalry
sat enthralled as Dorset brought
the Ithacans from behind by COM
pleting all 10 Of the passes ne
threw, three of them for touch
downs.
Paul Cowie, Princeton scatback,
sprinted 40 yards in the final period
for his second touchdown of the day
and spanked a late 57-yard Tiger
drive, but time ran out with the
home club still 80 yards away.
The game was less than five min
utes old when John Powers scored
che first Tiger touchdown by diving
the last yard Of a 34-yard march.
The Tigers followed with a 73-yard
drive which wound up early in the
second quarters with Cowie dash
ing around right end for the last
two yards. Ken Keuffel booted the
second of his three conversions.
Young Mr.. Dorset, 165-pound
sophomore from Miami, Fla, then
tossed 13 yards to Joe Di Stasio,
followed with another heave of IS
yards to Cassel and then connected
to Bernie Babula, who caught the
11-yard bullet on the Is and
sambled untouched to the first of
his three touchdoWns.
Moments later, Cornell again
started on it's SO with Dorset toss
ing a short pass to Cassel. His
next toss went to Babula, who
lateraled to Di Stasio on play
covering % yards. Then Dorset and
Babula hooked up on a pass-and-
run job that went 80 yards for a
touchdown.
Bob Dean kicked the second OF
his four points after touchdown,
sending the teams to rest at half
time in a 14-14 deadlock.
Starting on their own "a early in
the third period, the Ithacans
marched rs yards to the thiro
touchdown, scored by Babula on a
5-yard end run after Dorset had
completed passes of 81 yards to
Babula. to Matt Bolger and 18
to Di stasio.
A Princeton tumble set up the
last big red marker. On the next
play, Dorset pitched 80 yards to
Norm Dawson, who merely stepped
across.
Cowie's 4O-yard romp through
the Cornell team after Princeton
had pushed up from its own 9
gave the home fans renewed hope
but the Tigers had neither the time
nor the power to duplicate that
effort.

Of Stamps
By james Waldo Fowcett

Postal Inspectors George r.
Bleakley and Keith Meyer on We'd
nesday at least partially solved the
mystery of remittances addressed to
the Philatelic Agency being stolen
from the mails. Three "test" let
ters which they placed in transit
were traced to messenger, who was
arrested at the Ben Franklin Sta
ton with the planted evidence in
his pocket. Such thefts, of course
could be reduced in number, if not
entirely prevented, by patrons of
the agency abstaining from the
use Of currency in paying for stamps
ordered. Money orders or certified
checks inscribed to the Philatelic
Agency are safe. Banknotes, on the
other hand, are a temptation to
which the public, in its own interest
ought to avoid exposing postal per-
sonnel.

District Girl Visits
Natural Bridge, Va.
Prize Contribution
By Edith Shofer. II
Blessed Socroment School

On my vacation in Virginia this
summer, I found the Natural Bridge
most interesting. Located IA miles
from Lexington, west of the Blue
Ridge Mountains in the Shenan-
doah Valley, the bridge is a great
arch of limestone spanning a small
river. The 100-foot- wide arch Is
higher than Niagara Falls.
At night the rock is Illuminated
and a drama of the Creation is re-
enacted with symphonic music. 1t
is magnificent spectacle.
When George Washington was
surveying this territory in 1850, he
carved his initials on large stone
under the arch and they are still
seen today.
Thomas jefferson bought this
land and the surrounding acres
from King George III of England
in 1774 "for 20 shillings of good
and lawful money" "a shilling is
worth a little less than quarter)
During the Revolutionary War,
molten lead was dropped from the
