back the power you've lost. This,
Shell reports, is possible as .
result Of their discovery Of a new
additive now blended into Shell
Premium Gasoline and sold un-
der the trademark TCP.
The action Of TCP additive il
described as neutralizing the
power-stealing effects of the de-
posts by changing their chemi-
cal makeup. Says Shell:
"In combustion chambers, TCP
additive damps out the hot,
glowing deposits, preventing
them from pre-igniting. Ignition
occurs only when the piston is in
the proper firing position. Power
works for you, not against you.
"On spark plugs, TCP additive
converts the deposits to nom
conductors. They no longer cause
short-circuiting and misfiring."
Longer spark plug life
Reports of Shell research show
that the power regained by Shell
Premium with TCP can amount
to as much as 159o Of an engines
power when new.
In addition, spark plugs give
UP to 212 times longer life, the
tests indicate.
Taken all in ALL" Shell engi-
neers say, I've think it fair to
call Shell Premium with TCP
the greatest gasoline Develop
ment since the discovery of tetra.
ethyl lead 81 years ago."
The company reports that
Shell Premium Gasoline with
TCP is now available at all Shell

KanthaI's S Win Erases
Final Challenge 10
Golden Gloves Title
spseiuI Dlspo,eh 70 The s.s.

ST. LOUIS. May 26.-Heavy-
weight Len Kanthal of the
Quantico Marines finally has
beaten Garvin Sawyer of Gin
cinnati to put at rest any claims
that Kanthal really isn't the Ma
tional Golden Gloves champion.
In fact, Kanthal can claim
the International Golden Gloves
title after taking a unanimous
decision over Sawyer last night
in feature match Of a program
that mostly presented European
champions against American
fighters.
Sawyer was fighting in the
heavyweight match after beat
ing the European heavyweight
recently in Chicago and giving
him a cut eye that prevented his
appearance in the international
matches last night.
Defeated Sawyer Substitute.
Kar1thal earlier this year won
the National Golden Gloves title
in the East-West matches, al
though Sawyer, the Western
champion, was not his opponent.
The West team managers had
sent in a southpaw substitute
for. Sawyer they thought had a
better chance against Kanthal.
1t was that fight that led West
erners to claim that Kanthal
might not have won had Saw
yer been his opponent.
In the international part of
last nights program, the St.
Louis team won five of the nine
matches.
This was st. Louis first victory
In three tries against q Euro
pean squad. In 1889 Europe won,
SIS, and last year the matches
wound up in a SIS standoff.
Tied in Chicago.
The win here came on the
heels of the Europeans SIS tie
with the Midwest champions last
week in Chicago.
A crowd of 6,247 fans watched
the nine-bout international card,
plus the one special heavyweight
match.
Only two Of the Europeans who
won in Chicago were defeated in
the matches here. Jean Joefler
of Belgium was f1oored twice in
the opening round and the fight
was halted to give Jesse Bowdry
of st. Louis a victory in their
140-pound match. Richard Cur
rie of Scotland was deciSioned by
Bernard Dean of st. Louis in a
fast-moving 1yweight match.

Will Wear
New Habit

OLDENBURG, Ind. NC The
Holy Fathers suggestion that nuns
simplify their garb Will be adopted
next month by the Sisters of ST.
Francis when they will discard
their traditional guimpe - the
starched white fabric extending
nearly to the waist in front 49, and
substitute small, soft, white turn
down collar.
The change, voted by a majority
of the congregation. will affect
nearly 900 Sisters in seven States.
The Sisters, whose hesdquar-
fers is at immaculate Conception
Convent here, also decided to
eliminate . browband, which fits
tightly about the face, and wear
instead narrow white shield
extending slightly from beneath
fhe customary veil. This change
will free the neck and forehead
from fhs former close fitting
sarh.
The veil also will be modified
to give the Sisters unimpeded
vision on both sides, and will fall
back of the shoulders instead of
over them.
The crucifix worn on a cord
around the neck will be smaller,
and the seven-decade Franciscan
Rosary will replace the 15decade
rosary now in use.

The past year has witnessed a
spiritual transformation in one of
the worst districts of this seaport

II is all due to a Capuchin priest,
aided by group of nuns and mem

the priest and his helpers began

of MontescIaros, who at that time
was dean of the Cathedral Of Porto
Allegro,
On Saturdays, the group Of apost-
les held catechism classes for child
rem and grown-ups, visited the
people in their homes, and gave
advice and guidance TO those IN one
kind of trouble or another.
Meanwhile, the priest heard con-
fesSiops. the nuns sought out the
sick and poor TO help them, and
a young Jocist girl organized games
for the children in the publ c
square.
The next day, Sunday, loud
speakers installed in fhe motor
chapel summoned the people 10
