BY ROY J. GIBBONS.

AURORA. 111.. July l.—Whm the
call to arms sounded at the out-
break of the Civil War. Tom t'heeks.
then a full grown man who had
been born in the very cradle of the
Confederacy at Warientonn Va.,
girded on his sword and rode away
behind the flying colors of Stownrt'e
cavalrymen.

He was astride a proud black
steed that retired and dusluzti into
the thickest of many a fray before
the bitter struggle ended and
brought to Tom retirement to his
acres, and such a love' and thorough
understanding of horses that it
seemed he was enchanted.

Horses became his chief interest.

An effort will be made to bring
some or the stars 'of the tank to
this city for the meet. It is prob-
able that Captain Max Baum, of
the Bridgeport Board of Recreation.
will bring over a. largo squad.

A fine collection of prizes will be
awarded to the winners of the vari-
ous events.

As the plans are completed for the
meet they will be announced so that
the public will be informed of all the
details in connection 'with the
greatest swimming meet ever held in
Norwalk.

 

STAMFORD MAY
GET NEW PUBLIC
GOLF COURSE

Committee Is Named To
Recommend A Site For
18 Hole Links.

A committee consisting of Mayor
John F. Keatlng, chairman and
Deputy Sheritf Michael Ryan and
Albert Webb was named at a meet-
ing of Stamford public golf players
with the boan of park commission-
ors Tuesday night for the purpose
of recommendingto the city a site

 

 

It is now‘galanned to match the
winner of the Dempsey-Tunney
fight with Wills. . . . This promises~
to be the highlight of the 1976 flatlc
season or we'll miss our guess.

 

 

Mr. O'Goofty's little momma
wants a string of graduated pearls
and the poor sap is wondering what
college he can buy them in.

 

for a public golf course large enough
Spud RE 081' ~ to provide for 18 holes.
Wagons Passenger The appointment of the commit-

tee was the outcome of discussion as
to the use of the nine-hole course
at Hallowe‘en park. the latter
course being generally considered
inadequate and dangerous because
of the presence of so many non-golf
players. Before the committee was
appointed the park commission an,
moved a. set of ‘rules to regulate
playing of golf on the Haliowe' en
park course which rules ii: the fee
at $4 per annum and limit the use
of the links to Stamford people.

THRILLING RACE.

"POP,"

a local classic here the other day,
giving the old man his first victory
of the season.

A plot presumed to have been
hatched by gamblers almost killed
"Red" not so long ago when poison

Why anyone should try to kill a.
horse simply to make money
through gambling is beyond "Pop's"
comprehension.

It is beyond the pale of his code
of love. "Pop" never even laid
a whip on any horse he has ever
owned or ridden.

Honest. Victory Only.

him and was hanging him with both
hands to the stomach when he sud-
denly bent in two and yelled foul
The referee immediately ordered me
to my corner and went over to raise

club physician detected no sign of
any low hittingl'.

circumstances attending my try to
swim the English Channel is the
gractous attitude of the people, na-
tives and foreigners. in this \illage.

They all seem to have the warm-
est good wishes for us who are
training, and certainly they are gen-
erous in showing those wishes to me.

Madame Sion, the great French
swimmer. made a. remark that
pleased me so much that I am run-
ning the risk of seeming to brag in
order to tell it. It was on t 0 Fourth
of July, when there was ,2 unusual
number of spectators on‘ shore. but

The weather was cold an blustery.
There was a. strong north wind and
a heavy sea.

I went out as usual, staying in the
water nearly two hours. swimming
out about a mile and back. William
Killingly, my trainer. went along,
and there was a boat for safety.
which had a difficult time keeping
upright. Pretty soon Helmi. the
Egyptian swimmer. came up and
sworn beside me all the way in.

Madame Slon watched from the
shore, and she said of me: "She is a
courageous swimmer."

Coming from such a source, the
remark thrilled me and encouraged
me tremendously. So I am passing
it on to those in America who. I
hope. also are wishing me luck.

ready to believe that the strange
and perhaps terrifying things I have
heard of it may be true. _
