HomeMy WebLinkAboutZurich Herald, 1957-06-20, Page 3Separating Pair Split Furniture Recently a husband who had been barred by a court order Brom entering his home, pend- ing a divorce petition, sought permission to go there in order to attend to his budgerigars -- "one of his passions in life." Divorce judges must some - ...times pray for the wisdom of Solomon. They often have to decide not only on the custody o_ the children of estranged couples, and family pets, but also such varied objects as raz- ors, toy trains — even a motor - mower! One judge scratched his head in bewilderment when asked to snake an order concerning a husband's false teeth. They had, the man claimed, been unlaw- fully detained by his wife, Pets are frequently the sub- ject of such legal decisions. In Los Angeles a judge awarded the custody of a collie dog to a nineteen -year-old wife. He • stipulated, however, that her husband should be allowed rea- sonable access to the dog from time to time. One of the oddest of such cases concerned a Maltese ter- rier belonging to a Hollywood dancer who obtained a divorce in 1948. She was given the custody of it and we:, annoyed when the judge ruled that ,her former husband should be allowed to s_= the animal occasionally. The judge wouldn't listen to her ar- gument that her ex-husband drank too much and would teach the dog bad habits! After their divorce in Des Moines, Iowa, one couple couldn't agree as to who should have the car. The judge decided for them. The husband should drive it at night, the wife by day. - And in another court, when a separating couple quarrelled over an item of furniture, the judge ordered it to be sawn in half! Although a Chicago husband claimed that his marriage had .; broken up because his wife "fell in love with the televi- sion," it was she who was awarded the custody of the set. But the judge said there would be no alimony. Suing for divorce in Piedmont, California, a wife said her hus- band thought too much of his model railway, and asked if she ' might have the trains. When an Indiar wife petition= ed for divorce on the ground that her husband stayed up all might with his model railway, she asked for the custody of all their property. The husband didn't deny the charge but ar- gued that she had no right to the trains. The judge eventually agreed to the wife's claim, with the rider that her husband should visit her once a fortnight to play with his toy trains. A razor was the subject of dispute in recent action. During the thirteen years of their mar- riage,, said the indignant wife, her husband had forced her to shave him. Even when they se- parated he insisted on her do- ing so. The wife was given a divorce and told to give her husband the custody of the razor. In 1955 the ju'dge gave "tem- porary custody of the power mower" to a husband from In- diana, on condition that he cut the lawn every week for his wife! Son — Dad, may Y have two dollars? Father — Son, do you know . the value of a dollar? Son — Of course I do. That's why I asked for two. FIVE-STAR FINAL—Most newsmen will agree they've never s a city editor that looks like the gentleman on the left But the genileman—King Clark Gable—is real enough for 66 real newspapermen who 'are playing in the film, "Teacher's Pet.'

An authentic editoiigl room—a copy of that in the New York World-T'elegram and Sun — was made for the filming. ! , Won The Title—But Didn't Get It It was one of the great ironies of the boxing game that Young Billy Stribling of Macon, Ga.; should have fought Mike Mc- Tigue of the County Clare and New York the second time in the State of New Jersey. Maybe the the fact that the mix-up took place on the eve of April Fools' Day, 1924, had something to do with it. For the fact is that the "Georgia Peach," with the down of • 19 -year-old youth on his cheeks, soundly whipped lightheavyweight champion Mc- Tigue—but he didn't get the title. What saved McTigue his crown was the New Jersey law forbid- ding decision bouts; a fight either ended in a knockout, or a "no decision" was declared. The referee, the sports writers, and the 14,000 fans at the 113th Regiment Armory in Newark were unanimous in their opin- ion that champion McTigue did not win one round of the twelve. But Stribling couldn't put the Champ away for keeps. McTigue, of course, knew what he was doing all the time. Ever since he took the title from Battling Siki the year before he'd been holding on to it for dear life — taking no chances. And when he agreed to box Stribling in Newark, the wily McTigue figured that with his experience in the ring he could keep his chin out of the way of a knockout punch for 12 rounds. It was clever figuring; but McTigue almost out -smarted himself out of the championship. In the tenth round Young Strib- ling floored the champ with a beautiful right hand to the jaw. McTigue staggered to his feet, and from there to the end of the fight only Stribling's over- eagerness kept the champ from being knocked out. The Georgia youngster simply lacked the ex- perience to put away the man he plainly had set up for the kill. He rushed McTigue, swing- ing wildly, and the cagy champ managed to evade Stribling's punches or tie him up in clinches. One thing Stribling demon- strated without a doubt, at least. That was that he had probably beaten McTigue in Georgia sev- eral months previously, in their first fight. The champion. had f/orSaijou at theOig.HQ' C� / HOTEL COURT Large new airy rooms, tub and shower combination; Kitchenette Apartments; Simmons Beautyrest Bed- ding; Connecting, Rooms Available; In.. dividuaily Controlled Mr Conditioning and Heating Units.

FLORIDA brought his own referrae"``with him for the bout, and, rhearly brought on a shooting why the referee called the fight a draw. After the second meetiig,' it was the consensus that Stlribling could lick McTigue any ay of the week. This he nevem of a chance to prove, howeve�, Mc- Tigue never took achance;,:with the Georgia boy again. . From the opening. bell . f the Newark bout, it was apparent that Stribling had the ham- pion's number. He took after - Mike like a tiger, andthe Champ quickly got on his bicycle; Mc- Tigue was guilty of so sniiuch stalling, clinching, and running, that his prestige was damaged. It was a case of youtW against experience — 19 -year old 4trib- ling against 29 -year-old McTigue and the youngster provefl"rto: be the stronger. Trained to th 'pro- verbial razor's edge, his, ong, smooth muscles rippling , der the pink skin, his eyes right and his head erect. i ling simply outgunned the chiit# Time _after time he :bhp€ from Mike's clinche ; strength, and on other cc sic is pulled and shoved the 'hanip around the ring to get .!Vinic set up for a clean punch. Stribling relied mainly �'on his left hand to outbox McTigue. He stuck his left paw hi the champ's face so many 'i times, McTigue must have thought he was battling a centipede wear - Ing boxing gloves. Stribling al- ternated his left jabs to the face with vicious shots to the .mid - •section that made McTigue grab and hold on for dear life. Three times during the fight 'it ap- peared that Stribling had Mc- Tigue ready for a knockout. In the third round he caught Mike with a one-two on the button that draped the champ over the ropes. But McTigue staggered through the round. In the' ninth two left hooks and a straight right to the jaw had the. champ holding on again. Still Stribling couldn't finish him. The tenth round was the fight's high spot. It was here that the "Georgia Peach" rip- ped McTigue with a right hand haymaker that sent the cchamp crashing to the floor, his head through the ropes. Mike was up before the count, but he;,seemed. to be out on his feet. The crowd j u m p e d up, screaming, "Finish him! Finish him, Strib!" But Stribling, see- ing the crown almost within his grasp, was too anxious. He swarmed all over McTigue, bat- tering him against the ropes with lefts and rights, swinging madly instead of calmly ,meas- uring hik, man for the one knockout blow. McTigue rolled with the punches and took some on his arms, acting with the in- stinct of the veteran ringman. When the bell rang he was still on his feet, but so groggy he started to walk toward a neutral corner instead of his own. In the llth and 12th rounds Stribling continued hie, over- anxious ways. It was plain that McTigue was glassy -eyed, arm weary, ready for the finisher. Yet he managed to last out the two rounds, and saved his title. When the fight was over, if Mc- Tigue didn't realize he'd met his master ,at least the crowd did. Stribling was accorded a stand- ing ovation. The Georgia youngster was seconded, as usual, by his fa- ther, 'Pa" Stribling, while "Ma" Stribling, his trainer, occupied a ringside chair back of his cor- ner. The kid's first request after the fight was for a piece of can- dy. Stribling never did win the championship.----l3y Arthur Bern in The Police Gazette.
