PEGLER (United Press Staff Correspondent) ' London, Sept, 22 (By Mall) Tha scrapplngest, swattingest part in the ' world that is the boast of the Rhondda Valley, in the coal fields of Walea. ' The world Is quite a chunk of ter ; ritory but the valley is ready to back up the boast with grimy-toll ' hardened flats. -) Saturday night in the publio barf the matches are made . and all Rhondda Valley's male population turns out In the dawn of Sunday to battle or watch in the hills that cup the Valley. Every week-end from New Years to Christmas "and on' through, the Holidays the program 'goes onV . -y -.?(. A '- - wf This Is about how It happens: , , Bill Williams ambles down to th ' pub for his Saturday evening's after a hard week's work and a pretty, good supper at home. He is at peace with the world and Inclined to keep it, but only on certain ' terms. ' ; Down the bar is Floyd Jenkins,' He is a lot like Bill; has worked hard all week, Just tucked In a sat isfactory supper and Is. peaceable on the same conditions. Bill surrounds a covey of flowing bowls and gives voice to some radi cal opinions on conscription or pol itlcs. Floyd Is a radical, too, but Just the other way. Of course he can't stand by and hear his firmest con victions run sinto the ground, so he wallops Bill on (he nose. Fronds Intervene and the belli gerents draw on liberal night-caps ibefore winding their way home. The same incident ha been re--peated in ierbaps a score of places Bill doesn't hate Floyd; he pities him in his wrong convictions and bo they are going to battle for a principle. Sunday morning they meet and light to a knockout out in the open whatever the weather, with no ropes no gloves and only the grass for. their map. If Bill wins he is undoubtedly right about conscription or what ever it was he was expounding. The other logicians settle their controversies Jn the same way. Jimmy Wilde, the knockout fly weight champion, came from the Rhondda Valley and learned his fighting up In the hills. Tbe miners are proud of Jimmy and back' him to the limit. He, In turn has done his part by slumberixing a lot oT good fighters' from flyweights to feathers. Yes, Freddie Welsh comes from Rhondda, too, but the miners ily mumble th fact when they mention It all all. Freddie is popular In his old home town with the Inverse popu larity of a German butcher. 4 i ' ' t ;' .f -:t- ONE CENT 8ALE Velvet Cream The Original Liquid Cdmplexlon Powder, Ait Idtal Toilet Lotion. 25c per bottle 2 for 2oo.
