Rive a lot of pleasure to others and in general make tins drab old world a better place to live in. And a guy who ranks wav up there in mv estimation is Jimmy lualoney. the smiling, happy Irisii man with the touch fists and the lender heart. Jimmy blew Into town a handful of years ago and made himself known to the people around here and there as a bartender. Strict Iv a sideline with Jimmy, who Is an ex-pug and a damn good one Anvwav Jimmv drifted around from here to there, working the clubs mostly, and well liked in all of 'em. Then recently he got an urge to drink in a bil of the great out doors, get his feet out on Cod's Rood clean dirt and leave the smoke filled rooms. So now he's with Puckett and Scherer. the Keno millmen and doing well as an apprentice scaler. But, before all this started, way back when, Jimmv was going around the East and South proving his worth and talents in the rope square. And he did pretty well at It. He got started fighting back in the davs when be was going to Boston Prep and needed a little pocket monev. And what with one thing and another, which included a year at the University of Miami where he studied law. he put In 30 years at the fight game, winding up his fistic career in 1933. Back at the beginning he met the "kid referred to in the poem he passed along to us. Today that young ster is a Catholic priest, but Jim my has lost track of him. But he never forgot his young admirer and sat down several years ago and wrote this poem about It. It's got the lilt of the city sidewalks and the work and the bright lights In It.

Just wish 1 died Soijk By RF.LMAN MORIN (For HAL BOYLE) ' r NEW YORK t How would you feel If you were In a crowded bus with soma loose cobras? That happened to some people in India the other day. The Bom bay office of the Associated Press reported that a snake - charmer came aboard, carrying the cobras in baskets. The bus jolted over a pothole in the road. The baskets sprung open. When one 'of the cobras reached the driver's compartment, the driver panicked and lost control. So he said, afterward. There was a serious accident. In a way, this is the other half of a Kiplingesque story . . . One night in India, a British of ficer and his wife gave a small dinner party. It was during the war. and so there was some talk of the fight ing and the bombing of British cities, and what-not. And then one of the ladies tripped the trigger on a lovely argument. "This war has proved one JOE LA CLAIR LaClair Leaves CD Position Joe LaClair, for nearly a vear director of Klamath County's Civil Defense organization, announced to day he is resigning from the po sition effective Aug. 18. LaClair said the position has be come a full-time chore since he took it over last year, and he is to return to his duties as head of the Klamath Union High School In structional Materials Department on the date of his resignation, He said (he county's Civil De fense organization has grown from 30 persons when he took it over, to 1CO0 persons today. He said he could not do a proper Job on a part-time basis. He took over the directorship af ter the resignation last year of L. Orth Slsemore.

The glamor is over, 'lne glory is gone; Mv last cheers have died awav And the hero seekers have all moved on To another camp today. But yet there's a certain 10-year-old. A newsboy whose name Is Bill, Who hasn't grown The least bit cold. And thinks me a hero still. I used to finish Mv road work every day At a block near the open sea. And out of one of the alleyways He'd always rush to me. I'd always stop a little while And look right down at bun; He'd fumble his pnpers And blush and smile And say, "I'm praying again" And some of those nights In the dressing room With the roaring crowds outside In the midst of the thrills And the nerves and gloom That work 'neath a fighter's bide I'd think of that kid Who was tucked In bed. With his soul so pure and free. And I'd think of the prayers he always said For a worthless cuss like me. As long as vou stay in the game With half a chance to win.

But I'll just pray anyway. thing." she said "women are Just as brave as men In an emergency, and perhaps braver." 1 ' The men were indulgent. They conceded that women in the serv ices had often displayed extraordi nary courage. But they pointed out also that women will jump on a chair and scream in the presence of a mouse. The argument was swirling, and nobody noticed when th sn,i.. quietly signalled one of the Indi- 11 oci vanis. He bent over her shoulder. She whispered something. He hurried out of the room. A moment later, he reappeared, holding a bowl of milk. He set the bowl on the floor in a far coraer of the room. Suddenly, a cobra slithered out from beneath the table, heading for the milk. There were screams, quick ex its, and the confusion was im mense when the other guests saw it. The servant quickly destroyed the snake. Later, they asked the hostess how she knew the cobra was in the room. Did she see it? When? Where? "I didn't see it," she replied, but I felt it . . .It was coiled around my ankle." This tended to chill the argu ment about men and women and what thev do in th danger. But about the cobras , , , there are almost as manv tnlo r st!2n,!e..T"ly5 ,s there re snakes. The king cobra is Bggressive, and presumably, will always at- ,.., uie omer types only defend themselves. Yet. Some nf tho Tnrllan, -.li that not even the big king will harm a small child. They believe a snake reacts, through some sixth sense, to the loathing and dread wai arises, on signt, to most adults. And thev think thi t ac quired feeling, something you have to leam. Since a baby does not know enough to be afraid, he may be perfectly safe even with a cobra. Preston Grover. who headed the AP office In India for a number of years, was a witness to one of these Incidents. He was visiting an Indian fam lly. Their child, in a high chair on the lawn, was eating a bowl of bread and milk. Cnhms lit,,, milk, and apparently they can smell it from considerable dis tances. Grover. horrified, saw the snake - just as it was crawling up the side of the chair. It crossed the baby's lap, and came onto the apron of the high chair. Then it began drinking the milk. With a clumsy gesture, the baby banged it over the head with the spoon. 'We expected the cobra to strike," he said, "but the baby upset the bowl, and the snake simply dropped onto the grass and went on looking for milk down mere. ' It was only when thev ap proached to kill It, he said, that the hood went up and It colled to strike. So. In case vou are ever on a crowded bus with a loose cobra, either open a bottle of th best homogenized, or pretend not to notice.
