Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS

By United Press NEW YORK, Feb. 28.—Something ought to be done about people who go around corrupting the minds of the innocents. lam sitting at the ringside in the Garden Friday night still panting from excitement after Billy Petrolle had knocked out King Tut in four rounds when one of these vipers in human form bounces into the press row and whispers, ‘'Well, you Just tfot back from Florida in time to see a swell Barney, didn't you?” b b a I im ihocked as well as incensed and I Sav to this human vioer “What do too mean, a Barncr? I think the two tonne savaees put up a vert vicious fleht from con; to con;. And how about that blood trickivinc from Tut's nose and mouth. I suppose that Is the works too?” 808 I am verv much steamed up over the thine, as I say, because I do not think it is fair for anyone to cast aspersions upon hoinestv of effort, especially in the prize ring, so I fix a challcnjunz eye upon this lowly reptile and repeat, “how about that blood?" B B B This rauses the choulish fiend to throw back bis uclv head and laueh mockingly, and he replies: "Say that Jost makes it look good. You cotta finish up with a little blood. You've been around enoucb to know somethin; about this racket haven’t you?” BBS Weil all I ‘ an say is that the fight looked all right from where I sat arid 1 liked the way the boys threw thcL punches and stopped them. APART irom whether the performance was wholly authentic it certainly had the marks of a finished presentation. There was nothing obvious, amateurish or glaring about it, although when the young man who is known as Tut turned over an extra time after coming down for the knockout, the professional cynics at the ringside began to sneer. B B B % I think iwtas Dumb Dan Morgan wbo first said that when they turn over twice' it roc’in return engagement at Dubuque next Thursday with the knockout reversed. I imagine what started the boys to jabbering was the sudden shift In the odds which established Petrol’e a 7 to 5 favorite an hour before the fight. Previously Tut had been a dominatlnc choice to win, and on dope fleured to, because a few weeks ac*> he had stiffened the battered largo Italian in twenty-four seconds. Rocky Mountain time, usinc the Australian crawl, ■he overlappinc crip and a wide sweeptnc rieht hand.

The ba*.tiers also were working on a rather peculiar foiancial arrangement by which Petrolic was to receive a certain percentage of the gross and out o(_ this pay his opponent a flat sum of $15,000. Don’t ask me "Jay. Maybe it's an old Queerisberrv custom. At any rate PatrolD came out of the fight withal lthe glory and Tut with ail the gelt, which is lair enough as such things go. tt a a 'T"'HE gong sounded 'for the first Jl round, but Petrolle appeared, not to hear it. He stood in his cor-; ner as if in a daze with his guard I half raised and in a very brief space of tifne. Tut was upon him clawing at his innards with great earnestness and enterprise, a practice which he continued throughout most of the round, or at least with a sufficient degree of constancy to win it. a tt tt But. th* second round had not gone very far before Tut was bended on one knee in *hc middle of the ring blinking out at the crowd and taking a count of ine. He had hr,d the mlsoftrr.ue to run into a right hand punch at a very inopportune moment. and no matter wbat the human vipers tell you. there is nothing pleasant or soothing connected with an adventure of this nature. tt a it Tut got up. not any too worse for the experience, and the remaining moments of the round were devoted to as fierce a display of hand to hand milling as these fine old blue eyes ever look upon. Indeed I made a marginal note on my score sheet to the effect that it was one of ♦he most sensational rounds in the history of he new garden, bu I am reluctant to place such a statement openly in the records because I do not want any of those human vipers going around the town making offensive cracks about my judgement.. I mean a fellow can not take too many chances. tt tt u Well, anyway the round goes to PetroUe. and so does the third which produces another nine count knockdown. Tut being the eort of battler who takes all he can, both in the ring and at the box office. tt tt tt Then comes the last round and the finish. Tut goes down for still another nine count and to me he doesn’t look as If he Is hit. Not at the precise moment at which he went down. But he seems pretty bsdlv Jarred, and when he gets up Petrolic smacks him with a right that seems to carry a load of authority, and Tut goes bouncing In the resin on his back and before he can get up he is counted out. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! That’s the crowd telling Tut what it thinks of him as he limps out of the ring, and a few minutes after that he is across the street in Polyclinic hospital submitting to an ex-ray examination to determine whether he has appendicitis. Instead of a Barney, for all anybody knows, Tut may have participated in a very brave ring performance Friday night, and for my part I prefer to believe he did. cvenSf the commission did hold up both purses.

HOUSE ADOPTS REPORT KILLING TEXT BOOK BILL People Have Been ‘Robbed,’ Measure’s Supporter Declares. Although a desperate effort was made by the authors of the free text book bill to save it from death in the house Friday, that body adopted the report of the education committee recommending postponement by a vote of 56-36. It was pointed out in debate that one of the two measures, the tobacco tax, which was to have paid for the books, was killed, while the other, the malt tax bill was amended to tutn the proceeds into the state general fund. Representative Fred Galloway (Dem., Marion), and William J. Black (Dem.. Madison), who introduced the bills, declared if they had not been tampered with free texts could have been given to every school child in Indiana. They said that $1,000,000 additional could have been turned into the general fund. ‘‘The people have been ‘robbed’ by being forced to buy books every year at a cost one and one-half times that in other states,” Black declared.

The Bulldogs promptly revealed some high-class coaching by opening a hole to the basket for Chickedantz that a five-ton truck could have rumbled through safetly. That ended that. The extra free throw was just an added attraction. Searle Proffitt was Butler’s big boy. Anyway he was all the Bulldogs had to offer when points were needed. Young Willie Howell proved that Wabash has nothing of which to be ashamed. He is a ball player’s ball player, tough, smart and ready to go. And any team in the state could use him, too.
