One after noon I discovered a run in my stocking and decided to sew it up. Taking needle and thread I stepped into the display room and, feeling safe as I pulled down my stocking, took off my shoe and seated myself in a position comfortable for sew ing. Suddenly the door opened and I heard the boss say to a group of men who were touring the laundry “This is where we display-” and he stopped. My face felt very heated. H. J.

The -Harlem Hurricane WHAT HAS HAPPENED: Billy Alien j signs up Marty Bel!, whom we nickname the Harlem Hurricane, as an addition to' his stable of boxers, and turns him over’ to me for training. I work with him a couple of months, and finally we get a fight for him with Wally Palmer, con sidered ti : best heavyweight in Harlem The Hurricane vanquishes the Wildcat in six rounds, and a month later defeats Chubby Cutler, leading Kansas City con tender. His inspiration, as you might say. Is a girl named Martha Taylor, a very fine young lady who is rooting for him to come through ij a big way. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY: CHAPTER V After the Hurricane's victory over Chubby Cutler, it seamed as though nothing at all could stop him. His heart was in the game and he was eager and willing to learn all Billy Allen and I had to teach him. We got along splendidly together, and although he stayed out a little too late occasionally when he went to call on Martha Taylor, I could for give him for that because I knew that if I'd been him, I probably would have done the same thing myself. I had no objection to letting him see Martha all he wanted; she not only kept him out of speakeasies and street brawls, but she also had a good effect upon him—she fired the spark of ambition in him ar.d made him work all the harder. She was a sort o. guest of honor at every bout he fought in Harlem after that, and it was really sur prising to notice how much her rooting for him meant. It spruced him up in the middle of many a tough battle; made him go in there and give the best that was in him every . ime. Martha, indirectly, was respons ible for not a small share of the Hurrican victories. I don’t mean that she climbed up in the ring and kissed him or gave him a pep talk or anything dramatic like that, but the thought of her spurred him on many a time when things looked almost hopeless. There was the Jackie Kid Long fight, for instance. The K’d was really good; he tied the Hurricane up in knots during the first four rounds, and then proceeded to un tie him in the fifth with slashing uppercuts that started from the canvas. At the end of the sixth, my boy was almost out on his feet, and I had to almost drag him to his corner. 1 drenchea him thoroughly in water and gave him a smell of the salts. He woke up gradually, shak ing his head. “Buck up, Kid,” I whispered to him. “You don't want to look bad before Martha, do you? Come on, here's your chance; this Kid thinks you’re tired. Show him the stuff you've got in you—and show Martha.’’ The gong sounded for the next round. The Hurricane didn't dash out wildly, but started in cautious ly, backing away when he got into danger. The Kid followed him closely, shooting his left constant ly for the Hurricane’s head. He semed to get impatient as my charge kept back-pedaling and fi nally tore into him, slashing away with both hands. The Hurricane ducked, shook him with a hard right, then suddenly went into re verse again. He was playing a cagey game now—a waiting game. The Kid bore down on him—and suddenly the Hurricane slipped. The ring wasn't properly resined. In stantly the Kid reached out and crashed a savage left hook to the head that tumbled the Hurricane back into his comer, on his knees.

How much longer could the Hur ricane last'* I wondered. He was trapped in his own corner now, swaying on the ropes, head down and arms bent f> ound his jaw, blocking and riding his opponent's pufiches. Then the Kid must have decided to finish my boy off. He cracked a straight right to the jaw, the Hurricane's head flew back, blcod spattered, and right then something happened to the Hurri cane. Almost wild with fury, he forced his way from the corner with a savage left hook that bent into the ribs of the Kid, and then continued to batter him around the ring, put ting every bit of his strength be hind his blows. He ripped out a desperate right and crossed with a hard left to the face. Why the Kid didn't go down then was more than I could see. But it wasn't long before he did do down. He gasped and swayed now, and my boy blasted a left hook to nis jaw. sending blood spraying to the canvas. When the Kid looked up again, all sanity was gone from his glassy eyes. He tore in, blood rushing now from his mouth, but the Hurricane simply laughed at him and went in to meet him, smashing a terrific left hook square to his Jaw. The Kid hit the canvas and never twitched until, after the referee had tolled off the count, somebody pour ed a bucket of water over him. That wasn’t the only battle in which the thcught of Martha played an important part in squeezing out a victory for the Hurricane. During the first six months he fought in Harlem, he defeated six opponents, all good men, and defeated them by decisive margins. It looked as though he was cutting a straight swath for himself through the heavyweight division. The seventh fight was a tough one for the Hurricane. He had wiped up most of the Harlem op position, but with the exception of Chubby Cutler, the Kansas City champ, he hadn’t tackled any of the outside material. Billy was get ting anxious to see how he would stand the test against heavies who were really in the running, so he Anally, managed to arrange a ten round affair with Chuck Holt, a husky young white boy who, after coming out on top in the heavy weight division of the Golden Gloves amateur tournament, had turned professional. Holt was considered by most of the New York sports scribes as one of the foremost contenders for the heavyweight crown of hie world. He had come out first in the lengthy eliminations of the Golden Gloves tournament had shown excellent form in reaching the semi-finals of the Olympic tryouts, and seemed to be headed straight for the heights. The Hurricane was a little wor ried about the forthcoming battle with Chuck, and he had every rea son to be. The white boy was tall and rangy and heavy; he knew the fight game from the bottom up, and his square, lieavy-s.?t jaw showed great ruggedness and de termination. He was practically un defeated, having gone through the tournament and the Olympic trials without a single setback until a huge and pugnacious Westerner had eliminated him in the semi finals. “Don’t get worried about Chuck,” I told my boy. “Hes just an ordi nary human being like yourself; if you train and go in there de termined to give everything you’ve got, you’ve got him licked almost before you start."
