But", Archie Moore -- One Fighter Who Had No Alibis ® You don't look for a great deal of that commodity known as sportsmanship in prize-fighting circles, because there isn't, as a rule, much of it to be looked for.. Usually, there are plaintive cries from the loser, that he was robbed, or out- lucked, or the victim of circumstances, : So it was a refreshing change, as we sat in the dressing- room of veteran Archie Moore, after he had been hammered into deféat by the iron fists of Rocky Marciano at New York's Yankee Stadium, to near him say: The better man won, "fight, then I'm very happy." This must be a record ot sorts, certainly a precedent. Old Archie, hero of more than 100 fights, as he talked, was alternately pressing an ice-bag to a swollen right eye and rubbing the lumps on his head and nee - downward smashes of the champion ha Moore lost like a gentleman. Manager Charlie Johnson had complained that Marciano had butted Moore, which is possible, and, had hit him low twice in the ninth round. "Archie screamed out in pain" said Johnson, drawing liberally We asked Moore if low blows had bothered him. "I guess he hit me low once or twice, but not hard blows and they didn't make the gel difference to the result" said " Moore was hammered so badly in the eighth that Dr. . Nardiello of the Athletic Commission entered the ring and asked him if he wished to quit. I asked Moore in the dressing. room afterwards what his answer to this had been. "Why" "I told him that championships are won and lost out there in the centre of the ring." Someone in the crowd enquired: "Is Marciano the hardest hitter you ever fought?" "I wouldn't say he's the hardest Moore added witih a chuckle, "he -hits plenty hard enough for me." "l have no If everybody enjoyed the dhe savage anded. Egyptian Mummy Had Four Legs! Curiosity as to the sex and origin of an Egyptian mummy which has been exhibited for years in a Dutch museum led scientists recently to make an X-ray examination of its inner secrets. Now the negative has revealed the astonishing fact that the mummy, which is covered with hieroglyphics, has four legs. It also shows a mass of 'broken | MERRY MENAGERIE wr "Oh, they're just playing bronco --they've seen too many West. ern movies!" 11,000 B.C. _ bones in some confusion. . is believed to have been the ribs, a broken skull and other The museum authorities are frankly puzzled, for nobody had ever heard of a mummy with four legs. Photographs have been sent to mummy experts in Cairo and London, but no solu-. tion to the mystery has so far been found. Every Egyptian believed that his existence in the Other World. depended upon the mummifica- tion of his body. He believed the soul returned to the body and he believed in the resurrection of the material body itself and that eventually it would be reunited to its soul for ever. That js why the ape took such care to preserve the bodies of the dead by mummify- ing them. Scientists at.an American mu- seum were televised a few years ago while they performed what first public unwinding of a mummy, one of 200 unearthed in 1927 in the Paracas Peninsula,--}-- Peru. : Men with a special vacuum * cleaner collected every speck of dust from the mummy. The ra- dio-carbon content of the dust was tested to determine the mummy's age.

COLD CHCKEN SUPPER STARTED POISON SPREE A poison maniac was at large 4 in the affluent Surrey borough ~ of Croydon . .. a poisoner who covered his or her tracks so cleverly that for at least a year no one was ever suspected. At one time three separafe inquests on members of the Sidney family were running side by side, and experts jok- ingly propounded the theory that perhaps the whole of the arsenic mine! Yet to-day--just twenty-five years later--the amazing Sidney case is still unsolved. } There was no happier family Sidneys. Popping cheerfully in and out of each | other's back-doors, they never quarreled and they sought few friends outside the family cir- cle, Widowed old Mrs. Violet Sid- ney lived with her thirty-year- and her 'other children constantly visiting. Her son, Tom Sidney, came lived 'just around the corner with his wife and two small children. Comfortably married to Creigh- ton Duff, a retired commission- er of Northern Nigeria, her other daughter, Grace,- was al- ways on call a few doors away, " Then one evening Creighton returned from a fishing holiday and sat down to a cold supper of chicken and 'some potatoes, « washed down by a bottle of. - beer. The . entire family had tasted the chicken. Only Creigh- ton drank the beer. Soon he complained of feeling unwell and of cramp in his legs. The next morning he died. His doctor considered the pos- sibility of ptomaine food poi- soning, perhaps from a snack on the train. An examination was ordered . . . but no poison "was found, Poor Grace Duff did not bene- fit by her husband's death. "But for my relatives I do not know what I should have done," she said in evidence long after- wards. "I was a happy woman. Now I-am a miserable widow with no one to look affer me." Criminologists, looking back, have discussed the theory that unmarried Vera Sidney could _ have been jealous of her sister and cold - bloodedly poisoned Creighton. But barely ten months after had been laid in his grave, the killer struck again. This time it was Vera Sidney herself who complained of feel- ing ill. After lunch with her mother and an aunt, she and her aunt = were sick. So was the cook... and was the cat. A little stock soup_was kept in the pan- try near the kitchen door #nd heated up from day to day. Al- most any member of the family 'could have had access to it. Old Mrs. Sidney did not take soup. The cook avoided it a second time. Vera Sidney, however, "Jagain'"i.~'nhed herself to the soup the ¥pfowing day-~and died. Here again was murder 'ap- parently without motive, mur- der undetected. Only old Mrs. Sidney asked the strange ques- tion, "Will quest?" As it happened, Vera's death, was attributed to gastric influ- _enza and no autopsy was held. To be sure, Mrs, Sidney: bene- fited from her daughter's death by a life interest on £2,000 be- queathed in Vera's will. But she was terribly distressed by me ISSUE 435 -- 195% Creighton Duff" there be an in-~ Vera; her bereavement and the doc- tor prescribed a special tonic, The cook took-it-in 'when the delivery boy brought it to the house. "But then Mrs. Sidney appears to have hidden the bot- tle. Though all the remaining. members of her family were in and out of the house, trying fo cheer up, none could ber seeing it. All too soon events took the familiar pattern. Scarcely three weeks after Vera's death, the cook found Mrs..

Within a few hours she was dead . . . but not before she .had drawn attention to the medicine bottle and whis- pered, "It was so bitter!" Now the whole family was alarmed and Tom Sidney de- clared: "This must be seen in- to!" Certain organs were re- moved and a bacteriological ex- amination made, but nothing was found amiss. The third poi- son victim was laid beside the other two. Somebody, however, was still not satisfied. Police experts were asked to examine the medicine bottle, the wineglass and spoon. All three showed traces of ar-' sénic, No arsenic had been pre- arr - -- ar . terposed, "bought 1931 a scribed in the tonic nor could it have entered the mixture by accident at the chemist's, The poison had been added in the house by someone who knew what even the cook-housekeeper did not know--where the medi- cine was kept. "In the early dawn of March 22nd, 1929, the bodies of Mrs. and Vera Sidney 'were exhumed. Silent «in death, Vera Sidney showed servative effect that denotes arsenic. "If they found arseriic in con- the pre- sO often "nection with Mother, there is no reason why they should not find it in Vera," said Tom Sidney. "Thank God I was in bed with the 'lu for a week at the time she died." If the remark was to earn him a certain amount of cross-questioning at the hands of the coroner, it was also to show proof of his innocence. In all this remarkable case, in fact, not the slightest suspicion at- taches to any one person. Yet the analysts extracted 1.48 grains of arsenic from Miss Sid- ney's organs. They found ar- senic in Mrs, Sidney's hair and nails and it was obvigus . she must have been taking' arsenic in small doses for about a week before her death. Then the body of Creighton Duff was exhumed and traces of arsenic were dis- covered in almost every tissue tested. Luck had indeed been on the poisoner's" side. At the original ~ autopsy on Duff, it was decided a laboratory mix-up had oc- curred and probably the organs of another person had been ex- amnied instead. In the same way, no immediate test was given for arsenic after Mrs. Sid- ney's death. Scotland Yard men found a tin of liquid week-killer con- taing arsenic in a shed in Mrs. Sidney's garden, Mrs. Duff had handed it to the gardener months before, innocently ex- plaining, "I don't want this around my house with the chil- dren." © At Tom Sidney's house, his wife thought there was no poi- son on the premises . . . but just then Tom arrived and in- "You forget we have some weed-killer," and he pro- duced the weed-killer he had several years before, signing for-it with his name and address.
