The dogs Of this country must
kill chickens in cycles. Every few
months my mail brings me ar
avalanche of letters requesting
suggestions on how to curb dogs
from molesting and killing chick
ems. Weeks will 60 by and I will
receive not one letter asking fol-
such advice, then will come q
week when there will be many
letters.
Some dogs have q mania fol
chasing and killing chickens
Some go for years without bother
ing fowl and then suddenly start
molesting them. Once a dog
starts this habit, they never STOP
of their own accord: you have to
break them Of the habit. Here
are two ways in which you can
do it:
The first method Is to fasten a
Elarge piece Of freshly killed chick
en- to the dogs collar and allow
it to remain there for a week OF
so. The odor of chicken alive OF
dead will forever after be loath-
some to the dog.
The second method. and the one
I have used myself with good re.
suits, is to tie the chicken-killinS
dog in a henyard for two or three
days. Then unite him but allow
him to remain In with the hens
for a few hours. Watch him wher
you first release him and If he
goes after a hen, tie him up agair
for another day.
After q dog is removed from
the henyard he will, in the future
ture. avoid molesting chickens
Either he loses his fascination fol-
them or he has become tired oil
seeing chickens and more
chickens.
Whenever you acquire q new
puppy talk to him. Talk to him
steadily, quietly, for much Of thu
time you and he are together; moi
baby talk, but sensibly. OF course

Grapes Withstand
ALot Of PruninQ

Too many people seem to think
that grape vines are hardy indi-
viduals which can get along with
out any attention, once they are
planted. On the contrary. grapes
require special care in pruning
and an annual feeding II they are
to provide some fruit for autumn
February Is the month to do both
of these chores.
No matter how old and no mat
ter how overgrown. vines may be
rejuvenated and brought back
into good production. Since grape
vines bear fruit on the canes
which grow during the current
season from the past years wood
they can be quickly reformed even
though the tangle may look i'm
possible.
Old, unproductive wood Is dark
brown, or nearly black, with strips
of loose bark hanging from it.
The wood that grew last year.
however. is q light chestnut color
and very smooth.
First select four canes which
grew last year, each having 10
or Is joints or buds on it. These
should originate as close to the
main trunk as possible. After
selecting these, several renewal
spurs should be chosen on the
main trunk back Of the fruiting
canes. Cut these back to three
or four buds to provide a starting
point for growth of next years
bearing wood. Then cut out all
old wood and undesirable new
canes. Tie the main trunk and
each of the four canes loosely to
the trellis.
At the time the vines are
it is a good practice to
scatter from 5 to 8 pounds Of
plant food over an area with a
radius of S feet around each vine.
Due to the severe pruning. you
may get a lot of vine growth but
not much fruit production the
first year. However, in the years
to come, If the vines are pruned
they will provide not
only shade but plenty Of tasty
fruit as well.

Ring Fans Miss Treat
As Riley Beats Chavez
In SIugging Contest
By GEORGE Huber

Promoter Goldie Ahearn means
that it's his tough luck to stage
his best fights before poor crowds.
That's what happened last night
when possibly 500 customers
showed up at Uline Arena to
watch Featherweights Charley
Riley and Fabela Chavez fight a
furious 10-rounder.
That Riley won a split decision
was incidental. The few faithful
fans gave both standing ova-
ton at the end and on tele-
viSion-it must have looked ter
rife.
1t was somewhat CORY battle,
with Chavez picking up a cut over
his left eye in the third which
remained open and streamed in
the ninth and 10th.
Both Cut Loose.
Riley. from st. Louis, was billed
as the Slugger, and Chavez, from
Hollywood. Calf. was supposed to
be Just fancy boxer. But before
the fight was many rounds old
Chavez was throwing leather with
as wild abandon as Riley, and it
went that way to the end. The
fourth round in particular, when
1t appeared to the Chavez man.
agement that the fight might be
called TKO because of Fabela's
damaged eye, was a dilly. The
Hollywood battler went all out
trying for a knockout, and the
two slugged toe-to-toe all the way.
1t was as good round as has
been staged here III years.
Judges Bob Kilmartin and Harry
Childs voted for Riley by the same
scores, 95-93. and Referee Rey-
nolds called it a 91-91 draw. IT
was that close.
Two Win in Debuts.
Two boxers made their pro
debuts last night, and both
won. Light-heavyweight Tommy
Thompson, who fought for the
Quantico Marines as Eldridge
Thompson, gained a fourth-round
TKO over Earl Taylor Of Balti-
more, and Tommy Marciano of

Howard Coach Fears
|0verconfidence Will
Hurt Team in Start
By Ernest Goodman

Coach Eddie Jackson of Howard
University is afraid Of overconfi-
dence as he takes his Bisons to
Bluefield State College, w. Va.
for an opening game Saturday
night.
Bluef1eld dropped an 85-12 de-
cision to strong Morris Brown last
week and the Bisons have been
lulled into thinking they have a
soft-touch opener. However, jack
son recalls a similar situation
when he took his team there two
years ago. They were highly IA
vored and they took the short end
Of 1912 score.
The Bisons are a two or three
touchdown favorite this time, too
and his teams attitude doesn't
please Jackson. 1.-THE air of COM
placency is even greater now," the
Howard coach said, because Of the
Morris Brown drubbing and if they
(the Howard players) don't snap
out OF it, we might as well stay
home"
Five players who will be donning
the Howard uniform for the first
time are scheduled to start against
Bluefield. They are Linemen Willie
Bullock and Bill Jacques and
Backs Jim Jones, Gene Smith, and
Phil Struthers. Jones, Bullock and
Smith are Washington boys, the
f1rst-named having attended Dun
bar High, while the latter pair
prepped at Armstrong.
Although Jackson will employ
separate offensive and defensive
units. he plans to use two of his
stalwarts on both platoons. Sched-
uled to go all the way are BOZ
Fulton. a 210-pound lineman
from Baltimore, and Ed Neverson
all-conference halfback, who will
handle the quarterback chores
in Jackson's split-T offensive and
take over the right halfback post
on defense.
