Recalls Old Feats Of 'Robin Hood' Last Member of Ndisrious Kelly Bandit Gang Dies Peacefully in Sleep. GLENROWAN. AUSTRALIA. Feats of banditry by Australia's Robin Hood which stirred the country coun-try about 70 years ago are recalled by the death of Jim Kelly, brother of armor-clad Ned Kelly, who was hanged in Melbourne nfter his gang had run wild in country areas in Victoria and New South Wales for two years. Last member of the "bushrang-lng" "bushrang-lng" family, Jim Kelly, who was 90, died in his sleep near this little Victorian Vic-torian town where the Kelly gang was finally cornered in June, 1880, and made its last stand against 50 police constables. During the siege of the town's hotel in which Ned, his brother Dan, and two companions, Joe Hart and Steve Byrne, stood ofl police for several hours, Ned's three mates died. The 26-year-old leader was captured after he had shot his way out of the burning building wearing his 100-pound suit of armor made from plow steel, and bucketlike bucket-like steel helmet Jim, in jail at the time, did not figure in the 'escapades. 'esca-pades. Blamed the Police. Ned, Dan and Jim Kelly were sons of an Irishman who had served a penal term in Tasmania and settled set-tled on a farm near Melbourne. They were in trouble with the police from childhood. Ned became a fugitive fugi-tive shortly after he had been fined in the town of Benella for riding his horse across a sidewalk. A scuffle with police accompanied his arrest, and when he was charged with horse-stealing soon after, he wounded wound-ed a constable and escaped. His mother was jailed for complicity in the alleged theft. Joined by Dan Kelly, Hart and Byrne, Ned hid out on an old gold digging. There was a battle with trailing police and three constables were killed. Although a reward of 8,000 pounds was offered for their capture, the four mounte'd bushrangers bush-rangers carried out a series of holdups hold-ups in which they took over entire towns. When the Kelly gang captured a town, they rounded up all inhabitants, inhabit-ants, locked, them up and then robbed the bank at their ease. Ned Kelly always explained how he had been driven to crime by the police and sometimes the townfolk joined the gang at cards, dancing and sing-songs. . Kind to Poor. They acquired many sumpathiz-ers, sumpathiz-ers, and rewarded faithful friends with the proceeds of holdups. Ned Kelly built up a reputation for courtesy cour-tesy to women and kindness to the poor. x The gang operated in Victoria until un-til New South Wales nolice ex pressed amusement over the failure of Victoria to catch them. Then they crossed the border into Jer- llderie, N. S. W., where their first call was at the police station. In the uniforms of imnrisoned nnlirempn and posing as new recruits, they called a meeting of Jerilderie citizens, citi-zens, locked them up and took 2,000 pounds frm the bank. News that the gang had been captured cap-tured at Glenrowan after hour battle was flashed around Australia Aus-tralia and in Melbourne business stopped while people filled the streets to read newsDaoer bulletins. Only member of the gang to live through the siege, Ned Kelly was tried in Melbourne. Before he was hanged he said: "Such is life." His mother, who was 81 and a respected citizen when she died 25 years ago, said she had always felt Ned would have been a great military mili-tary man had circumstances been different Parrot SaVes Its Master From Spending Night in jail BAKERSFIELD. CALIF. A parrot par-rot saved a Bakersfield citizen from spending a night in jail. W. D. Melton was arrested on a charge of driving while intoxicated. Melton, arresting officers said, submitted sub-mitted peacefully to the arrest But not so his parrot, Rodrigues. He protested vociferously. The bird finally was quieted and taken to the station with his owner. Once there, however, Rodrigues again berated everyone within earshot ear-shot Harried police locked up Melton Mel-ton but discovered they had no facilities fa-cilities for birds. After a fruitless search for a parrot par-rot cage, authorities released Mel-ton Mel-ton on bail to take his bird home. Argument Over Merits of Bull Fiddle Ends in Battle NEW YORK- Two Brooklyn men wound up a subway-platform argument argu-ment over the musical merits of a bull fiddle with a demonstration of the Ineffectiveness of the instrument instru-ment as a weapon. Robert Hawkins, 34, hurled the oversized violin at Francis Taylor, 31, who had been making derogatory deroga-tory remarks about bull fiddles. Hawkins missed Taylor and the fiddle went crashing through the window of a subway train.

TXflLATEVER happens, one way V or another, the ring party of the year will take place in Chicago, with Tony Zale and Rocky Graziano at the head of the receiving line. These two gave the big party ol 1946, last summer in New York. They turned in one of the greatest ring v shows of all time, i, and you can turn V I the clock back to "Y Abel and Cain or - J David and Goliath. T j. Few appreciate vw I the number of H i' great fighters who jhave figured in o.- past middleweight .s!, championships. The R. Graxiano tls J, 0,f tl?e most brilliant in boxing history. It includes Jack Dempsey, the nonpareil, from 1883 to 1895. After that we find such names as Bob Fitzsimmons, Tommy Tom-my Ryan, Kid McCoy, Philadelphia Jack O'Brien, Stanley KetcheL Billy Papke, Frank Klaus, Harry Greb, Tiger Flowers and Mickey Walker. Here you find many of the three-starred three-starred names of ring history. These men have written chapters that never will be forgotten by those who follow the leather throw ers. Dempsey Fitzsimmons McCoy Ketcbel Greb Walker; Walk-er; slip us six greater names from the roped-in sector of sport No one can yet class Zale or Graziano with the six leaders w have named. We doubt that either belongs with these six masters, although al-though Dempsey is well beyond oui day and time. But the old-timers ol other years have told us he belongi around the top. Certainly no ona can argue the worth of Fitzsimmons, Fitzsim-mons, McCoy, Ketchel, Greb and Walker. They also could handle heavyweights, especially Ruby Robert, one of the great fighters o! all time, a boxer and terrific puncher with middleweight legi and a heavyweight body, still a great fighter at the age of 45. Best Since Walker We doubt very much that Zale oi Graziano would have any grea- amount of luck against those men tioned above. But the two, Zale and Graziano, are a big improvement over those who have come along since the Toy Bulldog, meaning Mickey Walker, traded his boxing gloves for an artist's brush. Zale and Graziano proved this part of the argument in a meeting that had even more action than thf stars of the past ever turned la Melodrama may not mean skill oi class. But it happens to be something some-thing the publio likes to see, when it Is ably handled. In 1939, the middleweight stevi included a weird mixture undei the names of Solly Kreiger, Al Hos tak and Ceferino Garcia. They wer merely fillers-in. In 1940, Zale arrived as th NBA crown holder. Tony has been wearing the middleweight crowa ever since, including a long wai lapse from 1941 up through 1945. While Zale was in war service a young, hard punching roughneck by the name of Graziano came along like a Midwestern tornado. Graziano Grazi-ano was blessed with one great ring asset. He could punch. He wai pever any too smart and he wai never much of a boxer. He wai never particular about observing any rules, as he proved In his meeting meet-ing with Marty Servo, whom hi fouled and almost wrecked. In a way Graziano was something a softened-up ring needed. He wai rough, tough, a braggart but aftei all a fighter and a puncher. He wai also a crowd pleaser, and a valu able entry at the gate. Rocky had built up a bigger pan of his reputation at wrecking oppo nents who were badly outweighed He wasn't so hot when it came ti a matter of pound for pound. Tony Can Take It In his meeting with Zale the chal lenger did about everything, except remove Zale's headpiece. When 2 saw Rocky nail Zale with a ful' right to the jaw, saw Tony gi through the bottom rope, appar ently bleeding at every open port around the head in one of the early rounds, the fight seemed to be over. But Zale got up and kept coming on. The defending champion continued con-tinued to take a terrific beating. His eyes seemed glazed and hii knees were wobbling. Here wai about as game an exhibition as anyone any-one ever had seen in the ring. Zale was dazed and dizzy. He has taken the heaviest artillery Graziano Grazi-ano could throw. And then suddenly, sud-denly, after a body attack, it wai Graziano who crumpled to the flooi and took the count. This closed out one of the most dramatlo meetings the ring evei has seen, looking back to the dayi of Jem Mace or John Lawrenct Sullivan. Zale, a first-class boxer, surprised sur-prised one by inability to keep hii chin and features away from Rooky's right hand. But Zale surprised sur-prised one even more by his un-1 believable ability to soak up all tbJj punishment and still have enougti left for a body knockout v V,-.-. - v" -v...y s"'.! .,,., i iffr.i1 TM I "THE crocheter's first love the pineapple design, makes these charming doilies suitable for so many uses.
