Harlan Trott in the Christian Science Monitor. It was Capt. Joshua Slocum from down Nova Scotia way who first circled the world alone. He did it in an old Cape Cod re- tread called the Spray. Kibitzers on the beach at Fairhaven let him know there must be easier ways to get lost than sailing a patched-up old sloop around Cape Horn. But easy-going old Josh Slocum got in the last word on the flyleaf of his book, "Sail- ing Alone Around the World." He dedicated it: "To the one who said: "The Spray will come back.' " Slocum's book still enjoys a lively sale some 60 years after it began tacking its way through several issues of Scribner's maga- zine, And armchair voyagers still chuckle over the Spray's running "gam" with the battleship Ore- gon in the Strait of Magellan. The Oregon was going full steam. for Cuba 'to join Admiral, Samp- son's fleet off Santiago, A flag hoist' mushroomed into view as the battleship stormed east: "W-e a-r-e a-t w-a-r w-i-t-h S-p-a-i-n." Quickly, the . Spray's flag hoist fluttered back: "S-u-g-g-e-s-t w-e s-a-i-1 t-o-g-e-t-h-e-r f-o-r' p-r-o-t-e-c-t-i-o-n." Cruising through the South Sea islands, whenever Captain Slocum anchored for the night, the last thing before turning in he strewed carpet tacks around the deck to repel cannibal ViSi- tors. There's something in the heart- warming get-up-and-go of this friendly purveyor of Japanese auto parts that has San Francisco folk hoping very much that visi- tor's credentials may be forth comingfrom Washington to let Kenichi Eerie land there long enough to accomplish what he set out to do. "I would like to kern Democracy, the frontier spirit and — yachting," beamed the transpacific conqueror with frequent swigs on his storm-beat- en Japanese-English dictionary. "I would like to stay here two years and learn English." Presumably this would give him enough time, too, to study yachting and fearn how to sail a boat! HOW Can , Iti By Roberta Lee Q.

W o r 1 d of peofeesionel boxing is capable of such feel togs as Sentimentality would seem to be a pretty unlik ely concept,. Yet back in the 1900's, II wave of sentiment surrouncl ed one of ristiana's gamest and Most battle-seared veterans. Ile was James J. Braddock, the hard-striving heavyweight who gained the undisputed title of "The Cinderella Man of Box- lag," The saga of &Week's rise: from the relief rolls to unex- pected fame and fortune in the ring appeared to tug at the very heartstrings of the fight world and earned hint, a place In ring history beyond that which he may have obtained on basic ability, I n d e e d, it was Brad, dock's courage a n d persever- ance in overcoming his limita- tions which endeared him most to fight followers. In a. career that stretched over a dozen years, lion-hearted Jim is perhaps best remembered for the grit, of his efforts against three major opponents —, Max Baer, Joe Louis and Tommy Farr, In none of these bouts was Braddock accorded a serious chance of winning, But by sheer persistency, he beat Baer, floor- ed Louis before he was kayoed, and 'fought the greatest battle of his gallant career against the rugged Farr. Going into the fight with Tommy, the aging Braddock found himself the customary sentimental favourite and the betting short-ender, At 32, and by then an ex-champion, Jim appeared to have little chance against the tougher-than-nails Welshman. Farr had spent years working in Welsh coal mines and con- sidered prize-fighting a joke by comparison. He once summed up his opinion of boxing in typic- ally terse fashion. Said Fern: "After the mines, what is fight- ing? It's play!" Such was Farr's attitude when Braddock faced him in Madison Square Garden on Jan. 21, 1938, before 17,369 fans. Though it was largely a pro-Braddock crowd, the oddsmakeas had, in- stalled Farr as a firm 3-1 fa- vourite. The Welshman had the edge in youth, strength, weight and speed. From the outset, Jim 'fought with typical gameness. In the first two rounds, he stepped in- to Tommy with a good left jab and long, slinging rights, But the Welshman, grimly contemp- tuous of Jim's efforts, counter- punched with jolting hooks to 'the body, and it was Farr who scored hardest and most fre- quently in both rounds. In the 3rd, both opened up barrages that brought the crowd surging to its feet. But again, Farr was outpunching Jimmy. It would have been the Welsh- man's round if one of his hooks' hadn't dropped below the belt line and caused him to lose the 'frame on a foul. In the 4th, Braddock carried the edge with sweeping left- right combinations, but Farr was back in the 5th with wither- ing body barrages that had. Jim on the ropes. Sensing danger, Braddock ral- lied furiously in the 6th, and he outscored Tommy. However, in a grim 7th and 8th, Brad- dock looked as if he were com- ing apart. Farr got to him with thudding body shots. The wal- lops — especially Farr's right- 'handers — turned Jim's side to a dull and angry-looking red, What was worse, they brought him down off his toes and forced him to .shuffle flat-footed around the canvas. He was slowing per- ceptibly, and his 32-year-old legs looked shaky, writes Gil Smith in "The Police Gazette." With two r o u n d s to go, it looked like a grim finish for Jim. But the amazing spirit that • had carried him from the relief rolls of North Bergen; N,J., to the world's heavyweight ehem- piotiship, now came to his aid again, He met the onrushing Parr in the 9th with slicing right upper- cuts and a string of explosive left hooks. Back up on his tees, and fighting his heart out, Brad- dock repeatedly drove his foe to the ropes. He eut-tvhaeked the Welsh, man in shoulder-to-shoulder ems changes on the inside, And when the clanging gong intruci, ed on the thunder of 016 crowd, Jim had completed his greatest round. The question now was, did he have anything . left for the 10th? Despite his hair-raising the count on most of the rings side scorecards 'appeared to ba 11-4 for Farr.

Daily Fxpress) is just about unbeatable In the field of adventurous his- tory iris 1.'he White Nile" (1961) Was a dazzling book,. and 'The Blue Nile" is its hypnotic lequel. The two chief sources of the Nile are the White Nile, pouring from Lake Victoria in Uganda) and the Blue Nile Iron,. Lake Tana in Ethiopia, They loin at Khartoum in the Sudan, where the Blue Nile continues Its total flow of 2,780 miles to the Mediterranean. The einer- gene° of these regions into mod- ern history is a wild, Cruel, and Immensely ornate drama, and in Moorehead it finds its proper scribe, Although the human figures involved often seem as improb- able as a caliph's nightmare, the course of events is clear enough, Moorehead write: "Thi:ee abor- tive cavalry charges against mod- ern firearms destroyed the isolation of the Nile valley from Lake Tana to the sea," There was the charge of the Egyptian Mamelukes against the invading Napoleon Bonaparte (1798), of the Sudanese tribesmen against the invading Turk, Muharnmed Ali (1820), and of the Emperor Theodore of Ethiopia against the invading British (1868). Napel, eon soon left Egypt to attend to his European worries and be- come the Emperor of ,France; the Turks remained embattled on the Nile for years; the English withdrew from Ethiopia once they had defeated Theodore. In any case, the Nile valley had a been shaken out of the. Middle Ages. The book is such a resplendent tapestry of clime and character, virtue and vice, curiosa and esotercia, that only specific de- tails can suggest its irresistible texture. Thus, the 28-year-old Napoleon found in. Egypt a land which fascinated him because here, as he noted, the seven deadly sins were held to be "dis- obedience to parents, murder, desertion during an expedition against infidels, usury, falsely accusing a woman of adultery, idolatry, and the wasting of the property of orphans." Entourage: Napoleon took with him a company of scholars, the Institut d'Egypte, who followed pis army, studying and drawing the scene and artifacts around them, producing a 24-voliune picture of the country in which "the very vultures have every feather in place," Moorehead magnificently depicts screaming battles and burning desert cam- , paigns, and he notes that Bona- parte grandly ordered from France "a company of comed- ians, a troupe of ballet dancers, a marionette 'show, a hundred prostitutes, 200,000 pints of brandy and a million of wine." The Nile story abounds in hor- ror. In one fairly typical Turkish action against the Sudanese "all male prisoners were emas- culated and the breasts of their women were cut off, the wounds 'being filled with boiling pitch to prevent the victims dying at once." But the Turks were per- haps more predictably inhuman than Theodore of Ethiopia, who was not only a torturer but flam- boyantly insane. Like his coun- trymen, he called himself a Cop- tic Christian, but he could turn in a trice from geniality •to mass murder. After he had toyed for years with captive British emis- saries, the British organized a vastly complicated campaign against him under Field-Marshal Lord Napier. Moorehead's des- cription of this crusade of retri- bution is a masterpiece of bizarre battle history. each other like life-long ene- mies, mini sng of away,inostlit ven rough three sational fighting the Garden had ever seen, Time and again, the 267-1b, Farr tried to sustain a body barrage, only to have his attack broken up by slashing one-two combinations. As they passed the half-way 'mark, Parr was swinging at both body and head, and Braddock had stepped up his own delivery to include double sets of one-twos. With a minute to go, it looked as if the pace would have to slacken. But the brawling con- tinued unabated down to the final gong. When, at last, they were dragged apart, it appeared Jim had actually gained an edge in the last-minute trading. The decision was split, and harrowingly close. -One judge voted for Braddock, the other for Farr. The referee's card in- dicated four rounds apiece and two e v en. But, exercising his discretion, the arbiter awarded the bout to' Braddock on the strength of his tremendous fin- ish, As Jim left the ring, the crowd gave him an ovation that almost brought down the Gar- den. It was the moment of glory for the popular Braddock — known as "Jefgey Jim" for his long residence in New Jersey, but actually born in a New York tenement just two blocks from the Garden. Much of the sentimental ac- claim for Jim that night lay in the fact that his amazing cour- age, persistency and unquench- able spirit had paid off unex- pectedly over the formidable Farr , . . just as they had paid off in his personal life. From a position of near hope- less poverty in 1933, he had achieved his dream security "for Mae and the kids," More- over, he was still young and in good health. Consequently, when the drums began beating for a return bout, Jim's own sentiments were di- vided. He was sure he could beat Tommy again. But he didn't want to give his family any more cause for worry. So, "in fairness to my wife and children," he hung up his gloves. Not without sentiment him- self, Braddock decided to make the gallant stand against Farr his last one in the ring. Today, Jim looks back with satisfaction at his decision. After the Farr fight, he opened a res- taurant in New York. At the outbreak of World War II, he joined the Army Transportation Copps. When that big battle end- ed, living, still in there, punching out l t h e operating engineers of a general contracting firm. At 56, Jimn got himself a job with g. A young Japanese chap-by the name of Kenichi Rorie sailed into the lagoon below the San Francisco Maritime Museum ter- race with the interesting news that he had just come in his 19- foot sailboat from Osaka. A most happy fellow, he came ashore on the 90th day with no passport or visa, At first, Coast Guard officials weren't too sure but what Mr, Hone and his 19-foot Mermaid had hitchhiked a few thousand milea of the way. There are quite a few Japanese whalers and sal- mon and halibut chasers coming and going on the Great Circle route past the Alaska chain this time of year. Perhaps the 23- year-old voyager had waterskiied behind one of them part way? The young man smiled good- naturedly between torrents of Japanese words aided and abet- ted by intermitted oral extrac- tions from a water-soaked Japan- ese-English dictionary. His chart of the North Pacific was even more eloquent. Strung out along the track were five penciled no- tations denoting hard gales with heavy running seas in a sloop that would fit athwartships in your living room. A Coast Guard officer scanned the youth's chart, examined his tiny radio-direction finder, sex- tant and compass, scanned the chart once again and remarked admiringly that Kenichi Hone "is obviously a whale of a navi- gator." Between Osaka and the Farallone Islands he never saw land. There have been a number of single-handed transpacific voy- ages, but probably nothing that surpasses this 5,300-mile mid- summer epic. Bernard Gilboy of Buffalo, N.Y., set out from San. Francisco in a 19-footer named the Pacific in 1882 on what his local customs certificate describ- ed as "a voyage of pleasure for Australia." Unlike Kenichi HoHe, the Osaka traveling salesman, Gilboy had company on his voy- age. A dispatch in the San Fran- cisco Chronicle said the Tahiti packet, the barkentine Tropic Bird, had sighted the Pacific. The next news from Gilboy was that he had been "rescued" by the schooner Alfred Vittery 160 miles off the coast of Australia, Gilboy had to be hospitalized and treated for exhaustion, in con- trast to the bouncy way Mr. Hone stepped out of the Mer- maid, Single-handed ocean sailing had come to be a pretty relaxed undertaking by the time Harry Pidgeon, the Los Angeles post- man, set out to build a boat call- ed the Islander in his back yard and sail her clear around the world some 35 years ago, writes When Skin Itch.
