8, at West Texas State College, instead of today, as was erroneously anbounced in the News yesterday morning, Clark. Host of Friends (Continued From Page 1. Col. 63 and low, the rich and the poor, he acquired a unique philosophy of "Live so thet when you wake up tomorrow you won't be In trouble," be often adrised. He never used Intoxicating liquor in any, form, seidom used llquor money far and too own much money his ends.

"Too muchjold trouble one Way or another," he'd say, "50 I get along without either His only boast was, "I bave never been in any town which wouldn't welcome me back." Antarilo Booster He was ardent booster saw of Amarillo from the first time he the town. before he settled here permanently, he billed self ELS "the Flying Dutchman of Amarillo." Such great cities 05. Toledo, New York City, Chicago, Toronto, and many others, once saw (the down their Dutchman busiest streets up decked and out in knit jersey and wrestling shorts with "Amarillo" written on the shirt and his name on the pants. The Amarllo Chamber of Commerce used to receive letters' from other cities asking how much it paid this grand Large and booster deluxe." Mantell was born in Ditkirch Grand Duchey de Luxembourg. He would have been 60 rears old nest July 25.

His fatber was A Frenchman and his mother A Belgian. Early circumstance in his childhood gave him the foundation for thc man lie became. A fellow of no creed but a respecter of all faiths. A gentleman, a student the Bible. A man or the world.

A man of stolid convictions which he never tried to force on the other fellow. His father 84 Protestant and prominent Mason. His mother devout Catholic. Name Was Not Mantell His Christian MAIDE WAs Alfred Albert Joo de re la Gardieur. LooseJy translated the family name means, "one of the king's guards." When he was child, hits fa the: died.

Soon the desire to shift for himself, to make his own way and to sook answers to puzzling questious of life asserted itself and he left home. He took up residence with an uncle in Germany, He was to learn Lise butchers trade. But the idea didn't take. The boy couldn't wait until he had grown up to satisfy his ambition to see the world, to meet people, to mingle with crowds, learn for himself the lessons of lifo others tried to teach him. So, one day me left uncle and hended for England where he hoped to 'catch' a boat for America.

He always insisted that long before he bad come to America 1t was the country for blin. And, from the time ho was naturalized In 1901, until his death, he was one grand' American. In his work with the Maverick Club and the 'Boys' Ranch here. Mantell also demanded of the boys that they learn to sing the StarSpangled Banner and other patriotic songs. He often offered prizes to boys for learning the words of the national anthem.

Drade Slight Error Dutch didn't get to America that first time, He made A slight error and got on a boat headed for tralia. There he made his Ilving boxing and finally wrestling. made three more attempts to get to America before he succeeded. Once he went from Africa Parts to London an finally boarded a ship for America. But his ship stopped at New York and allowed to get off.

He then salled on to South Amerion, In Melbourne, Australia, again, WaS now determined to let nothing interfere with his plan to come to America, By now he had taken the name, Dutch Mantel, which came about naturally. In Melbourne, one of his most ardent supurters among boxing funs was a wellknown Shakespearean actor, Robert! B. Mantell. The actor went Into the boy's corner one night and udvised him. The combination clicked.

Nobody could remember the wiry, 130-pound boxer's name and people began. to refer to him as Mantell's boy. His accent in trying to speak: English was of German quality and soon they had tacked on the name "Dutch." Thus, the youthful rover became Dutch Mantell, He left his actor friend and caught a windjammer which sailed around the "Horn" and back to England. He left England and got to Chile. From there he reached America 11 1900.

After two year of wresting around New York and castorn cities, he Joined the United States Navy In 1902, Dutch often told friends that those old navy days were the happiest of his Ilfe, "There were only 24 of us on an old destroyer." he related, "and it was a rugged boat, but slow. When they began to develop speed, none of us old-thners? it and I got out of the navy in. 1906." Here First in Shortly After he was discharged from the nary, Dutch camio through Amarillo and wrestled here. "I knew then, back in 1906, I would always be coming back to Amarillo," he sald long afterward. And, although his life took him to all parts of the world and over all the United States, he kept coming back to Amarillo.

Sixteen years AgO he setled here permanently and 12 scars ago began promote wrestling and to devote his HEe to boys' work. As A citizen of Amarillo he. did! everything he could to promote any charitable cause. His work with the boys clubs was not by any means his contribution to the betlerment jof humanity. He bed a knack' of SAT.

In fact. it was las willingness to co-operate in. charitable causes which forced himself into retirement from mat activity. In a benefit performance for the Children's Home here he wrestled one Sailor Noran, south several pounds heavier than he. Jack Dempsey was the referee.

The late Hawk was the promoter. This combinatson couldn't fail and the Municipal Auditorium was packed. The 152 rear -old Mantell knew hel crafty couldn't Muran, stand so, the he pace resorted set by to this sailor tactics. Moran retalinted. The result wAs thnt everyone of Mantell's front teeth were kicked out arid thereafter her couldn't wrestle, for his "store teeth" as ho them, stay put."

When he died he left an estate valued only a few hundred dollars and, typically, his will stipulates that the income from his property "Always shall go to the Boys Ranch and the Maverick He followed the ups and downs the high schnol teams and once declared, "I sun the proudest man In the world," when he was selected to in lead Abilene an Amarillo football parnde when the Golden Sandstorm played the Engies in 1934. He helped in every way he could to make the Golden Gloves a success here. "Every boy should know how to use his fists," he said, "not because he may to but because there is nothing in the world thnt Lives confidence to boy who knows l19 can stand to anyone and fight a good battle it is forced on him." Dutch hated no man.

The only: Lypo of porson in whom he coutu not find admirable trait was the bully, "Hitter is a bully," he Bail soon after the fell of Poland. "You' watch, he'll pick on all the little fellows first, a bully and some day, Ilkc all bullles, Ilcked." About 12 days ago when Dutch was taken back to the hospital, It Ls likely he knew it would be his last journey alive. But lie never whimpered. He alcd peacefully and gracefully, the privilege of those who have lived good lives. To hint life wns an adventure.

He Liked action. Excitement, Although he could and did when asked give sound advice to others about getting rcady for tomorrow, he himself preferred to save his own thinking for emergencics.
