| Description |
Brave, hard-fighting, honest Billy McCall was hooted last night— hooted because he bowed to the inevitable Superior force In a hard, high-tension struggle while it lasted, had completely pumped him out and nature refused her office. But the bitterness of the occurrence Is softened considerably by the knowledge that those who boo-hooed were of the lot that howl at everything, lawful and straight and otherwise. |
