It was the toughest section of Chicago— a thoroughfare of saloons, furtive gambling games, noisy burlesque theaters, houses of ill-fame. Life — noisy, glaring, naked — boiled and swirled down that street. Back of every window, in every knot of people on the curb, there was a story for Floyd to learn and write. That most of the stories were none too pleasant or pretty didn't matter. They were all stories. GRADUALLY he built up a reputation on the Tribune as a dependable writer of whatever was dramatic, unusual, colorful. The editors of the Tribune soon discovered that Floyd did his best work when he was suddenly shifted off the home grounds to territory that was new to him. Accordingly, whenever there was a colorful out of town assignment, it was Floyd's property. It was on one of these that he went to Mexico, and in doing so stumbled inadvertently upon his first great news story. Floyd didn't go to Mexico to see Pancho Villa. He went to watch Jack Johnson train for a scheduled battle with Jess Willard; and later he was to cover the fight itself. But once in Mexico, Floyd saw plainly that there wasn't going to be any Johnson-Willard fight. Right on the border, across the river from Texas, was Jaurez. Jaurez was Floyd's kind of town. Rough and tough, it teemed with life, and there was a story wherever you turned. A man named Hypolito Villa was Juarez' boss, a playboy boss if there ever was one. In faultless evening clothes, around his waist a heavy cartridge belt to which was attached a brace of revolvers, Hypolito lorded it over Juarez in grand style. He drove around town in a glittering, high-powered car, most of the time filled with girls. He tossed away money at the gambling tables and the races. Hypolito was Pancho Villa's brother. It was his job to buy ammunition and see that it was safely transported to Pancho, who was somewhere in the interior. As the days passed, Floyd learned more about Pancho Villa. Something was happening up in those Mexican hills — something much more important than a series of small-time bandit raids. Scraps of conversation dropped at bars, around faro tables, hinted at the magnitude of Villa's ambitions. Floyd met Hypolito, talked to him, and learned still more. And always there was the news trickling in, of yet another fierce raid made by Pancho. Floyd wired the Tribune: "If the Johnson-Willard fight doesn't come off, there's going to be a lot bigger fight down here anyway. Can I go and cover it?" Chicago knew a little about Pancho Villa, but not too much. A few American newspaper correspondents had tried to see him, without much success, and the reports which had come in from inaccessible Mexican villages were sketchy and inadequate. America hadn't yet realized fully that Villa's intermittent skirmishes with the Mexican government armies under Carranza were the beginning of a Mexican revolution. The Tribune told Floyd to go ahead — and hardly had it done so when the importance of the Villa story began to grow by leaps and bounds. Armed with credentials secured from Hypolito and other Vallista officials in Juarez, Floyd went to Monterey, the capital of the state of Nuevo Leon, which Villa was then occupying. General Paul Madero, of Villa's army, arranged for Floyd to have an interview with Villa, and acted as interpreter during it. THEY had told Floyd that Villa's first ■ impression of a man was usually his fixed opinion. _ It may have been so in Floyd's case, since at the end of the interview Villa granted him permission to accompany a march against Matamoros which was scheduled to take place shortly. There is no doubt, though, that Villa grew to like Floyd even better as time passed and he was allowed to become virtually a member of the General's entourage. That first forced march, against Matamoros, may have had something to do with Villa's opinion of Floyd. Indeed, he probably smiled a private smile as he One of radio's most popular organists, Fred Feible, plays the opening and closing strains of music for True Story Court of Human Relations on NBC. 86
