Among the things the column- ist never knew until now (he said so!) was the way the actor can punch ambidextrously, al- though Winchell insists that when Jolson mauled him at the Hollywood Legion Stadium box- ing show he was helped by an- other guy. Four thousand persons saw the brawl and 4,000 versions were ex- tant Saturday, but the fact re- mains that Jolson hit Winchell because he didn’t like him, be- cause he resented things Win- chell had put in a movie sce- nario reflecting disparagingly— Jolson said—on Ruby Keeler. And he resented that because Ruby Keeler is Mrs. Al Jolson. Here's the story: The actor and his actress wife were among the customers of the boxing show when Winchell came in, heading for his ringside seat right near the Jolsons. Miss Keeler, shy, dark-eyed and ap- Pealing, suddenly saw Winchell and began to cry. Jolson looked around and spot- ted the columnist. With one movement he got up and swung on Winchell’s chin. Winchell sat down without further ado, but he didn’t take the count. He was game but his judgment was bad. As he came up he met Jolson’s other fist, and down Winchell went a second time. The spectators, by now stand-* ing on their seats to see a fight not carded on the evening's en- tertainment, lost count of the knockdowns at this point. Jolson said afterward he had floored the self-announced Broadway tattler several times. North Dakota Woman, 50 Years Old, Rides 500 Miles on ‘Bike’ Minneapolis, July 22.—(?)—Al- most 95 miles in one day was the record established by Mrs. C. A. North and her 16-year-old son Carl, who arrived in Minneapolis on bicycles, ending a trip of near- ly 500 miles from their home town of Cando, N. D. The ‘record is all the more re- markable in that Mrs. North, now Past 50 years of age, learned to ride a bicycle only a few days before she and her son shoved off for Minneapolis. An ear infection, which she de- termined needed treatment by a specialist, prompted Mrs. North to-undertake the trip. The first day the pair covered only 40 miles and she was so stiff and tired she almost turned about for home. The second day, however, she Pushed ahead more than 50 miles and after that the muscle fa- tigue started to leave and she be came accustomed to the riding. She and her son continued to gain miles each day until the day they arrived in Minneapolis they completed more than 90 miles. En route they stopped frequently to visit friends. Although it took them four weeks to make the trip, the time they actually spent on the highway was less than eight days, Mrs. North said. They plan to start their return trip late this week. “\N. D. Well Supplied With Harvest Labor Fargo, N. D., July 22—()—North Dakota will require practically no more labor for its harvest this year than already is within the state in the opinion of officials of the farm labor division, U. 8. Department of Labor. G. A. Peterson, special agent for the farm labor division, here to make the preliminary survey for the depart- ment as the harvest gets under way, says the big job will be to keep a great influx of laborers from flooding. into the state. Rye and barley harvest is now un- der way in this area and rather gen- erally over the southeastern counties, with some oat fields being cut in that territory. Wheat harvest will be gen- eral next week in the southeast sec- tion. The department of labor will open special offices for the harvest season at Grand Forks, Dickinson and Jamestown about Wednesday of next week and will open headquarters at Cando and Minot as the harvest gets under way there. The office in Fargo is open the year round. A tablet in Chigwell Church, Es- sex, England, is in memory of George Shillibeer, London’s first busman. — THIS CURIOUS WORLD - ONLY 7WO TEETH!

In contrast to stormy weather that caused their plane, the two-motored Seafarer, to crash on the first take- off attempt June 8, the weather was acceptable as the plane took the air at 11 a, m., Greenwich time (6 a. m., E.8.T.)

A novel entitled “The Thundering Herd” is the vehicle on which Neal has ridden into the Junior Literary Guild. The original story in abbreviated form, ran in two parts in the Blue Book of last October and November. After its first publication the novel ‘was amplified and accepted by the Junior Literary Guild. The novel's central theme is a story of the wanderings of Ta-na-ha (Arikara Indian name for Buffalo). Credit To Halvorson Neal gives credit for inspiration of the story to Halvor L. Halvorson, Minot attorney. “How did I come to write “The ‘Thundering Herd’?” asks Neal. “Well, Tl tell you. In Minot lives Halvor Langdon Halvorson. Mr. Halvorson is what they call a self-made man. Be- cause he is exceedingly proud of the Job he did on himself, he likes to think that his friends should conform to his own pattern. He goes around issuing orders like a machine gun and when I ‘am over there to visit him, it frequent- ly happens that he misses his own family and hits me. “One day we were out riding. He drove into the park in Minot and pointed to a new-born buffalo calf. “You've written about mountain lions, beavers, prairie dogs and ducks, There’, he said, ‘is the central char- acter for your next story.’ “If you are as wise as Iam, you don’t argue with self-made men and so I came home from my vacation with my mind so full of buffalo that I could taste hump. That is ex- actly how I came to write the story of Ta-na-ha.” Neal took more than a year to write the story—in pieces—and for months at a time the manuscript was buried under piles of papers. —_— Wilton Boy’s Leg Is Badly Cut by Mower Edward Partyka, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Partyka of Wilton, had one of his legs nearly severed above the ankle by a lawn mower Friday.
