WkiJ^KOMW l(€ *TAUN
February 5. 1835 — Matches were
aoi available to colonists .and it was
much easier for them than for us
who have followed them to account
for the reverence In which fire was
held m ancient times. A flint and
steel which was used to start fires
was kept in every home and carried
by every one. Dried Spanish mo6S
was often used for kindling and
when it feebly took a spark and
began to burn the tiny flame was
carefully shielded from drafts which
might have extinguished it. In the
open of course the difficulties of
lire building were much greater
than in the homes and wagon tra-
veling parties carried dry material
burning their fires through the
night and often transporting coals
from on* camp to another. Home
fires were ctways banked at bed-
time. so that when morning came
the coals could be brought to life
with a hand-bellows. Pew articles
of such importance as the bellows
have been made ir as many differ-
ent forms over the centuries. The
hand-bellows of colonist days like
many things of household and farm
use. was made at home. It was cons-
tructed of two half-inch boards
sawn *n the shape of a greatly en-
larged ace of spades and attached
by a strip hinge near the pointed
end. which was a funnel-shaped
metal opening the boards being
connected with an airtight strip of
rl able sheepskin enabling the han-
dler to be separated about three
inches. When dilated air was
sucked in the bellows through a par-
tially flap-covered hole in the low-
er board; when contracted the in-
drawn air was forced gainst the flap
and propelled through the funnel-
shaped end.

Dizzy Is Whiz
But Babe Still
Ranks as No. 1
NEW YORK. Feb. 5. MV-Dizzy
Dean has replaced Babe Ruth in
the baseball headlines this winter
up to and including the Dizzy
ones sudden inspiration to become
a "hold-out'’ but the great Card-
inal pitcher has yet to come within
gunshot of the Babe’s position as a
drawing card or box-office attrac.
tion. in the opinion of major lea-
gue baseball men.
“All this talk about Dean re-
placing Ruth as the big magnet for
the cash customers is just so much
hokum." remarked a club owner
who is in a particularly good posi-
tion to discuss the subject.
“We in .the National league wily
wish it was the truth. Dean is fast
becoming a popular iigure. no doubt
but in the first place you can t
compare a pitcher who works only
once or twice a week with a player
who may be out there every' day
from the standpoint of drawing
power.
A Few Fact*
•in the .second place the fans
hhve not been breaking down the
Rates to see Dean pitch even when
it was advertised well in advance.
The Cardinals tested this by trying
a three-day build-up for Dizzy dur-
ing the last penant season but on
one occasion only 1.100 cash cus-
tomers appeared.”
This does not mean the elder
Dean as a soloist or In combina-
tion with Brother Paul will not be-
come an increasingly big attraction
especially if he continues his sen-
sational speed ball pitching but
Old Man Ruth if he decides to
have another part-time fling this
year with the Yankees wili likely
have an easier time getting a $25 -
000 contract than Dizzy.
The Babe won't be home lor an.
other month to reveal whether he
has changed his mind. Meanwhile
the impression grows that he will
.‘#?1 the old urge for action like a
1 ire-horse and sign to go south once
more with the Yankees.
Zepeda Is Given
Draw With Aztec
(Special lo Th® Herald >
HARLINGEN. Feb. 4- ‘Lefty"
Zepeda slugging Brownsville south-
paw played the underdog role to
perfection here Monday night to
steal the spotlight away from the
main eventers on a fight card held
at the American Legion arena.
Zepeda no great shakes as a box-
er but always willing to mix it. was
conceded no chance against Midget
Aztec clever little bantam who lias
defeated some of the best boys in
the business. But the Brownsville
southpaw stepped In and. fought
hard all the way and his reward
was a draw decision in ten rounds
The tough southpaw was clouted
to the canvas in the ninth frame
but bounced right up again and the
crowd applauded his game stand
against a much superior boxer.
In the main event. Henry Hooks
decifioned Kid Laredo In a rel-
atively tame affair. Tht last two
loundis were lively sessions with
Hooks stepping to the front. Hooks
floored Laredo for a count of six
ir. the fifth frame with a biow to
the plexus. Laredo retaliated in the
next round by ^ending Hooks to the
floor for no count.
