Returning home from a wedding anniversary party, Mrs. Florence Shinn, 200 Shepherd street, Chevy Chase, Mad.. was killed yesterday when the auto- mobile in which she was riding stalled on the railroad tracks at Woodside, Md., and was struck by a Baltimore é& Ohio Railroad train. Mrs. Shinn had been a guest at the tenth wedding anniversary celebration of Mr. and Mrs. E. Babitt, 4405 Four- teenth street northwest, Saturday night. Another guest, T. C. Stockdale, of Clarendon, Va., volunteered to take her home. They left the Babitt home about 12:45 yesterday morning: Mr. Stockdale became confused in the thick fog and after a long drive found he was in Silver Spring. He asked a gas station attendant the way to Chevy Chase. Turns at Wrong Store. The attendant directed him to turn left after he passed the Sanitary Gro- Ne eety Co. store. Mr. Stockdale turned at the wrong store and eventually found himself at the end of Fenwick lane, Woodside; at the entrance to the C. A Snow estate. He.. athe -car around” and started back over the railroad cross- tng, “but missed the filled portion in the fog ahd his car tolled on the tracks. The wheels straddied the tracks and the, running boards and drive shaft rested on the rails. He directed Mrs. Shinn to get out and to stay at the side of the tracks and not get back into the car, he told police, and then went for help to get his car off the tracks. William Holmead, who lives nearby, agreed to assist and returned to the crossing with him. As they approached the tracks local train No. 1474 round- ed the curve and crashed into the .stalled automobile. ~ Engineer A. L. ’Walty and Conductor L. J. Boody, both of Baltimore, estimated that the train was going 35 miles an hour. Mangled Body Found. Believing his passenger was waiting at the side of the tragks, Mr. Stock- dale went to escort her back. After a few minutes’ search he found her mangled remains beside the track. Corpl. leroy Snyder and Policeman Charles Barnes, of the Silver Spring substation, Montgomery County po- lice, and Dr. Gerald A. Scully, of Sil- ver Spring, were summoned. Dr. Scully pronounced the, woman dead. The body was removed to Rockville by Warner Pumphrey, Rockville un- dertaker. The woman’s body was thrown 186 feet and the car about 400, police measurements show. It is believed that Mrs. Shinn became tired of standing and had seated herself on the running board of the auto) The headlight and noise of the locomo- tive were dimmed by the heavy fog. Inquest Held Unnecessary. Mr. Stockdale remained at the Sil- ver Spring substation until State's Attorney Robert B. Peter, jr:, had in- vestigated and decided that an in- quest was unnecessary. A certificate of accidental death will be issued, the State's attorney said last night. Mrs. Shinn was about 55 years old. She ts survived by two sons, Clarke R. Shinn, of the Huffer-Shinn Op- tical Co., with whom she lived, and R. Amos Shinn, of Baltimore. Mr. Stockdale is-manager of a res- taurant at Clarendon, Va.

San Francisco, Feb. 23 (A.P.).— Fred “Dumimy” Mahan, welterweight boxer from Tombstone, Ariz,, plunged to his death here today in a 5,000- foot parachute jump from an air- plane. Mahan, a deaf mute, made the jump in an effort to regain his hearing. He had been deaf since he was 8 months old. A crowd of; several thousand per- sons watched horror stricken as he ator, inventor of a new type para- chute which Mahan was using. Col.

The body NEW CRIMINAL INQUIRY BAREU TO COMMITTEE {Senate Judicial Group Is Told Plan to Measure Lawlessness. |DRY ENFORCEMENT PROBLEM DUE TODAY Body to Debate Whether to Start Far-Reaching Wet Investigation. PROHIBITION FORCES MOBILIZE FOR FIGHT Members of House Collect Evidence to Present Last of Week. (Associated Press.) The prohibition controversy at the Capitol has centered in tite Senate judiciary committee, which will con- sider today whether to undertake a far reaching investigation into en- forcement of the dry law. Chairman Norris, of the committee, himself a dry, has proposed the in- quiry. The proposal has split the dominant Senate drys. The adminis- tration drys are opposing the investi- gation. The Democratic drys are looking apprehensively at it and are still in doubt, for the most part. Sen- ator Norris has @ mass of evidence to present to the committee. While Senator Norris, a leader of the Republican independent faction, has asked a comprehensive survey of prohibition conditions throughout the country, others favoring the investi- gation are known to be interested in the activities of the prohibition en- forcement chiefs—Assistant Secretary Lowman of the Treasury, and Pro- hibition Commissioner Doran. Drys Gather Forces. Meanwhile, the drys are mobilizing to answer the wet assault upon the eighteenth amendment and the Vol- stead act before the House judiciary committee. These hearings will be resumed on Wednesday, and the wets | have been granted at least one more day to complete their appeal for re- péal of the eighteenth amendment Or modification of the Volstead act. The prohibition legislation is clogged behind the tariff in the Sen- | ate. It seems likely that the House | bill for transfer of the dry.enforce- | ment service from Secretary Mellon | to Attorney General Mitchell wifl form the basis for the prohibition hearings and debate in the Senate. Another crime investigation came to light yesterday with word to the Senate judiciary committee that a survey is being conducted by the In- ternational Association of Chiefs of Police under the sponsorship of the Rockefeller Foundation Law Officers Help. In a statement presented to the committee, Bruce Smith, representing the committee on uniform crime rec- ords, disclosed the new investigation. He urged support of the House bil] to establish a central bureau for the collection of criminal statistics in the Departmént of Justice. Mr. Smith re- ported that law enforcement officers throughout the country are cooper- ating in the collection of crime data. “The investigation embraces a regis- tration area of 20,000,000 persons,” Mr. Smith informed the committee, “and, by spring we hope to have more than one-third of the country’s popu- lation represented. “Statistics of the following major offenses are being compiled: Felonies, homicide, rapé, grave assaults, rob- bery, burglary, larceny and automobile thefts.

SHORT LIFE FEARED FOR CABINET, THOUGH Report That Jones’ Views Caused Disaffection ls Denied. LADY ASTOR EXPLAINS AIMS OF CONFERENCE Peeress Appeals to Women of U. S. to Work for . Cause of Peace. London, Feb. 23 (A.P.).— Reports from Paris indicating that the new Chautemps government, with Social- ist support, might obtain a vote of confidence in the Chamiber of Depu- ties next Tuesday permitted § the heads of the four other delegations to the stranded London naval con- ference to rest a little easier tonight. Even a brief appearance of a French delegation headed by Foreign Minis- ter Briand at the conference would enable Prime Minister MacDonald to summon all the delegates for a hur- ried survey ofthe whole situation. The five powers could work out a plan to harmonize the future ac- tivities of the conference with the topsy turvy political situation Prance. In London the impression is that | the life of the Chautemps govern- | ment will be short. The American delegates seem to think that former Premier Tardieu yet will be called on to lead the French delegation back to St. James’: Palace. Week Required to Form Cabinet. about such speculation is thet at least a week is required-to. form a cabinet in France, The question of how long Secretary of State Stimson, former Premier Wakatsuki and For- eign Minister Grandi can keep their delezations in London while the French political parties are settling their differences may soon become pressing. Secretary Stimson spent a quiet week-end at Stanmore, where he will remain tomorrow. He inquired twice today about the health of Rear Ad- |miral Hilary P. Jones, who spent a | bad night. | The admiral’s illness, diagnosed during the week as ulcers of the stomach, will be the subject of a con- sultation between Dr. Higgins, U. 8 man who has been treating him, and an English special- ist tomorrow. The doctors will de- cide whether Admiral Jones is to em- bark on the liner Berengaria Wednes- day. London Paper Sees Disagreement. Though his condition is said not to be serious, Admiral Jones is sufficient- ly ill to cause a good deal of worry | among his friends. A London Sunday printed a sensational report that, though his illness was a cause for the admiral’s sudden decision to re- turn to the United States, there were strong rumors behind the scenes at- tributing to him definite opinions about the depletion &f the American Navy on the basis of Anglo-American parity. This report drew fromthe spokes- mean of the American delegation the answer that “there is absolutely no disaffection in our delegation, and there is no reason at all why Admiral Jones’ departure should have an ef- fect on the conference as a whole.” The Sunday night broadcasting bill on conference activities was filled by Lady Astor, American born peeress and member of Parliament, while Lord Parmoor, Labor party Continued on Page 3, Column 3.

The possibility that many of the Government employes who have been stanchly advocating the passage of the Dale retirement bill will shift their support to the Lehibach bill loomed last night as Robert H. Alcorn, chairman of the Employes Joint Con- ference on. Retirement, announced that he had called a meetfng of his committee for 10 o'clock this morn- ing. While Mr. Alcorn declined to state the exact purpose of the conference or to predict the stand that the group would take in view of President Hoover’s statement urging the en- actment of the Lehlbach measure, he admitted that his committee was de- sirous of getting “something better than we have now” and that with some certainty that it would become a law. The House civil service committee will not hold any hearings today on the two bills, but will probably meet tomorrow in executive session to make a decision. Republican leaders of the House have declared that they would prob- ably not permit the Dale bill to come up for a vote, in view of the Presi- dent's indication of his wishes.

The last synagogue in Krupke has been taken over by the authorities, and a red flag waves over the syna- gogue in a township near Vitebsk. The Jews were said to be marching on the local Soviets asking for the conversion of the synagogues. The newspaper Oktiabre, organ of the Jewish Communists in Minsk, de+ clared that all rabbis in Russia play an important role in the present anti- Soviet crusade abroad, that they are all spies for foreign counterrevolu- tionaries and that therefore ‘‘these holy damagers should be carefully watched.” The entire Soviet press, from Izvestia, the official government pa- per, to the smallest sheet, today car- ried a furious official attack on the Jewish Telegraphic Agency because of the furor raised abroad over the re- ported danger of the Minsk rabbis.

NEW CONFESSION MADE New York, Feb. 23 (A.P.)—James Baker, 23, self-styled slayer of nine |men, arrived here today from Detroit after having been frustrated in an alleged attempt to add two more deaths to the list of which he boasts. Detectives George Pitzpatrick and Arthur M. Horey, who guarded Baker /on the train, said they found two pistols and a stiletto on his person during the trip and that he had con- fessed an intention to kill them at Pittsburgh and make his escape. Shortly after his arrival, District Attorney Thomas C. T. Crain an- nounced Baker had made a confes- sion of the poisoning of Henry Gaw, | watchman at the Guggenheim Lab- oratories here, on December 27, 1928. Among those released, I | Mr. Crain said he believed the con- fession was authentic. Detroit police have expressed skepticism as to the reality of at least some of the other deaths. Mr. Crain said Baker also admitted shooting and killing a railroad detec- itive who tried to stop him from |crossing tracks in Detroit. He said an alienist would examine Baker and that the case against him for the the grand jury Tuesday and a murder indictment asked. Tomorrow morning he is to be ar- raigned in general sessions court on the rbobery indictment. The indict- ment charges he stole $20 from one of two truck drivers who entered the Guggenheim laboratories during his attack on Gaw. On his arrival at the Pennsylvania station, Baker volubly denied to re- porters that he might be insane. “There's nothing crazy about me,” he said. The guards who accompanied him on the train from Detroit quoted him as having said, “I've been in India and I’ve seen human beings horribly tortured. I've geen plenty in my life. and I'm willing to go.” In his confession, as made public by Mr. Crain, Baker repeated the story he had told Detroit police of having forced the night watchman to drink two cups of poisoned coffee and then forcing a lump of poison down his throat with the muzzle of a gun. The two loaded guns and the sti- letto were discovered a few hours out from Detroit, the detectives said. Baker refused to tell where he ob- tained the weapons. Detroit police were notified and word from officials there said an investigation had been started to determine how Baker had acquired them.

Motorists who let their license tags accumulate a coating of dust, either vecause of some natural untidiness or in an effort to render the numbers more difficult to read, and those who hide their tags behind bumpers or other accessories, have become s0 numerous that the police have de- cided something should be done about it.

President Hoover has called another White House breakfast council for this morning, to which Secretary of the Treasury Mellon, budget officials and Old Guard Republican leaders of Senate and House have been sum- moned, in order to prepare for hold- ing down appropriations becaus® of reduced taxes, and to prevent the supply bills from being caught in the Senate log-jam over the tariff. prospect of diminished Treasury im- come due to the stock market crash and its impairment of businéss necessitate a rigid check on all ap- propriations, according to the White House. Moreover, the President is disturbed by the legislative situation at the Capitol, fearing that unless the tariff is disposed of soon, the important supply bills may 6e trapped. The White House has indi- cated that such a predicament might force the laying‘off of 10,000 to 20,000 Government employes. Senator Borah, as spokesman for the Senate coalitionists on the tariff; ‘~ sees no reason for alarm ‘over the passage of the yams bills, however. “I haven't any fear that the ap- propriation bills will not be passed in plenty of time,” Senator Borgh, speaking for the coalition, said last night. “My understanding is that they do not go into effect until the end of the fiscal year, anyway, and that is not until next July 1. They'll be passed.” Congressional Chiefs Invited, Concerning White House complaint that the Senate is dilatory with the tariff, Mr. Borah added that consid~- erable delay results from interruption due to White House nominations to various commissions. He pointed out that last week the Senate spent many — hours in open executive session on the nominations for the Radio and Interstate Commerce Commissions. “If we could have one uninter- rupted week on the tariff,” Mr. Borah said, “we could come close to finish- ing with the bill.” The President decided yesterday to invite to the breakfast the principal figures concerned with appropriation bills, headed by Secretary Mellon and Undersecretary Ogden Mills. The others summoned in are Senators Watson, of Indiana, Republican lead- er; McNary, of Oregon, and Jones, of Washington, assistant leaders; Smoot, Utah, chairman of the Senate finance committee in charge of the tariff bill; Speaker Longworth and Republican Floor Leader Tilson, of the House; Representative Snell, of New York, chairman of the House rules come mittee; Representative Wood, of In-« diana, chairman of the House appro- Hawley, of Oregon, chairman of House ways and means committe Col.

One would allow the incorporation of the entire county upon the applicationf 15 per cent of the qualified. voters d ap- proval by the majority of the elector- ate. The other bill authorizes, gh a constitutional amendment, the for- mation of a commission form of gov- ernment, with five commissioners elected .at large. Mr. Saffell declared in favor of the latter measure, asserting it offered the best form of government for the people of the county. “It fs not reasonable to suppose,” he said, “that the citizens-of the county would want to take upon themselves the responsibility of the maintenance of all roads, including both State and county, in addition to losing more than 16 miles of Fed- eral roads now apportioned to the county, the entire cost of schools and the loss of the gasoline tax in order to become a corporate city.” In opposing the return of Arling- ton County to the District, Mr. Saffell maintained that the act of Congress allowing the _ retrocession of the county to the State of Virginia was constitutional, and supported his contention with a letter from Repre- sentative R. Walton Moore. “The District of Columbia is 4 territory duly. constituted as such, and the State of Virginia is likewise constituted a State and récognized as such,” he said. “Under the pro- vision of the Constitution no State can annex any portion of. another State or territory without the con- sent of freeholders.

Replying to your further inquiry, I can tell you that the question as to the validity of the retrocession act has never been raised except in one case (“Phillips vs. United States’), many years ago, to pay taxes to the State of Virginia onu fhe theory that the retrogression act was unconstitutional and that he could only be compelled to pay taxes to the District of Columbia. “But the court held that the terri- tory was at least de facto under the jurisdiction of the State of Virginia and he must make payments to the authorities of that State. The court declined to pass on the constitution- ality of the question and it has been admitted ever since that that ques- tion can not be raised without some act of Congress. Personally I have never had any doubt that the retro- cession act is valid,” he wrote. “I will admit,” continued Mr. Saf- fell, “that Congress has a perfect right to condemn the whole or any part of Arlington County for a Gov- ernment reservation, in which case they will have to pay for damages assessed by a commission appointed By Congress and of the State of Vir- ginio, but the area condemnéd and taken over by the United States would be a Government reservation, which no citizen could own property Or have any voice or administration of affairs of that area.” j “Let the advocates of the ‘back to the District’ movement bring proof that millions of dollars from the Fed- eral Treasury will be diverted in im- provements in the area of Arlington County receded to the District of Co- lumbia without cost,” he declared. “Let them study the difficulties that the District of Columbia have had and are now having to obtain a budget which will provide the necés- sary money for the internal improve- ments of the District itself. Let them investigate and find out how much territory in the present area of the District has neither* water nor sewers.” In conclusion, Mr. Saffell said: “When the advocates of back to the District can submit unimpeachable evidence that Congress will appropri- ate money for the -sanitary improve- ments such as water and sewers, and that the territory so improved will not be charged with these improve- ments besides the free will offering of these millions of dollars which the backers of this movement are con- stantly broadcasting, I think we of Arlington County will be in a posi- tion to discuss the feasibility of the movement of retrocession of Arlington County to the District of Columbia.” A modern drainage system for the Town of Ballston will be the subject to be discussed by B.

HOLDUPS SHOW SLUMP Chicago, Feb. 28 (A.P;).—aA auspect- ed automobile thief was probably fatally wounded, another robber is thought to have teen shot, the Negro assailant of a young white woman was beaten unconscious by infuriated neighbors, and 920 persons were ar- rested by police over Saturday and Sunday. Chester Dykiewski, 23, was shot by a detective when he tried to escape after having been seized with two other robbers for stealing a motor car. Police said he had a criminal record. One of three men who held up 4 South Side butcher shop is thought to have beén shot by Joseph Latuscew- ski, who rooms above the store. He said one of the men staggered and was helped away by his companions after Latuscewski fired. The Negro, Frank Hart, 25—6 feet tall and powerfully built—seized Miss Ruth Collins, 19, as she was returning from work. Shé- broke away and nearly reached-a neighbor’s house when Hart caught her and struggled with her again. Neighbors, attracted by the girl’s screams, ran out and caught the Negro. An arriving de- tective squad found him bleeding and unconscious. They took him to jail. As the police entered the third week of their roundup of criminals, only 14 holdups were reported, against a usual 25 to 30. Of those arrested, 269 were taken to the weekly “showup” and 225 were found to have police records.

18S GENERAL HELD! ON SHIP, NOTE OAYD Message, Purporting to Be, From Kidnaped Leader, Found Off France. HOAX THEORY SCOUTED Paris, Feb. 23 (N.Y.W.NS.).—A bottle containing a message signed “Koutiepoff” has been picked up by fishermen off the coast of Normandy near Port en Bessin. The note says that the White Rus- Sian leader, Gen. Alexander Paul Koutiepoff, who was kidnaped in the heart of Paris on January 26, is a prisoner on board the Soviet cargo ahip Sparzak with no hope of escape. cape. It is realized that the message may be a hoax, but police are investigat- ing and the handwriting will be sub- mitted to the wife of.the general. It was learned that the Soviet ship Sparzak did actually sail from Cher- bourg at about the time Koutiepoff was kidna , The kidnaping of the general, who was very populer in Paris and very active in work among Russian refu- gees, has caused danger of a diplo- matic breach with the Soviet gov- ernment after charges were made that Gen. Koutiepoff was kidnaped by the G. P. U., the Soviet secret political police operating in Paris as attaches of the Soviet Embassy. It is generally believed that Gen. Koutiepoff was murdered. The Parisian press has favored a — atic breach and Leon Bailby, writing in L’'Intransige- ant calls the Soviet Ambassador and his suite, “criminals in the eyes of every true Frenchman.” (Copyright, 1930.)

The shooting was accidental, Sidor maintained. They had gone down cellar to open the toy cash register bank which was part of their loot, and while Stanley hacked at it with an ax they found in the cellar John fooled around with the .25-Caliber Mondial automatic which they had also stolen. He had removed three of the bullets from the weapon, he said, and supposed it was empty. Pointing it at his chum’s head in fun, pretending he was a policeman trying to stop him, he pulled the trigger, and Stanley crumpled up on the floor with a bullet in the top of his head.

PARIS NEWS CHEERS NAVY DELEGATION ~-— Expected Confidence Vote for Chautemps Gives Hope of London Action. oe LADY ASTOR IS SPEAKER Continued from Page 1, leader in the House of Lords, in a political meeting gave what may be considered the official view in Eng- land of the conference situation, Not Exciting, She Says. Speaking to her transatlantic audience in the United States, Lady Astor admitted that the London conference was not exciting. “I speak aS a woman who feels that peace is worth months and months of the dullest conference— even years,” she said. She appealed to women voters in America to use their influence for peace and disarmament, deciaring that there was one fact every nation had to face. “If there is another war everybody will be in it whether they want to or not. There were very few neutrals by the end of the last war, and the next war. if it comes, will be ten times more fierce and savage than the late war.” Congratulating the United States on its delegates to the naval confer- ence, Lady Astor said: Made Good Impression. “They have made an amazingly good impression. J] have met them, one and all, often, and I have noth- ing to complain about. And remem- ber this: For eleven years I have gone among men, public men, so Il am like the old lady, 1 am a little choosey about the gentlemen. “Your delegates, the American dele- gates, are tackling their jobs in the right spirit; they are showing a good Yankee spirit. They are not talking too much, but they seem to know what they want and feel pretty cer- tain that in the long run they will get it. I hope and expect they will succeed.” Continuing, she held that “one of the dangers of the disarmament con- ference”: was that “we start discuss- ing implements of war.” Nations Want Peace. “Before we know where we are,” she asserted, “we are arguing about guns to kill the other fellow when war comes, and we seem to forget entirely that we renounced war, that is, as an instrument. of national policy. “Yet 1 am _ perfectly certain, in spite of this conference talk, that every delegate at the conference, and the countries they represent, funda- mentally want peace; only qa mad- man Or a mad country would want war.” She said that conferences such as those at London take “time and in- finite patience, and above all, per- sistent good will.” Speaking at a meeting in Finsbury Town Hall, Lord Parmoor said that if there was one man in the world’ who really sympathized with the policy of disarmament, he beliebed it was President Hoover. S. and Britain Together. He expressed the belief that the effect of Prime Minister MacDonald’s going to the United States was, and would remain, that the two great Anglo-Saxon peoples never again would contemplate war with each other, but always would be on the same side pressing forward toward world peace. As to the progress of the negotia- tions in London,’ Lord Parmoor said “No doubt patience will be required. I don’t suppose anyone expects to get all he wants in the first instance, but there has been a very substantial advance not only in the way the con- ference has been conducted but in the way it has been received in such a country as ours.” Sees U. French Premier Prepares His Statement of Policy —_— -—— Paris, Feb. 23 (A.P.).—Assisted by a few chosen advisers, Camille Chau- | temps, France's new - premier, zovernment’s statement of policy for presentation to the Chamber of Depu- ties Tuesday. He will meet his first test of strength then. The declaration will be submitted for approval to a council of the new ministers at 9:30 a. m., Tuesday, and will be read by the premier himself ‘in the chamber at 3 p. m. According to persons close to the new Radical-Socialist leader of the French gavernment. the declaration deals with five principal points in in- ternal and foreign policy. The budget is the first item under the heading or internal wae old-age pensions the second, a broad ject of amnesty for political offenses - third, and the improvement of the national service in transports and mmunications the fourth. The fth item, under the heading of for- eign ‘policy, is @ lengthy chapter re- viewing the work of The ue rep- arations conference and the Young plan, and the situation at the London Baie Conference.

Cramton (Repub- | lican), Michigan, announced yesterday that cemplete agreement has been reached in the matter between Federa! and Maryland authorities. ““At the time my bill was originally drafted,” he said, “the Maryland Park and Planning Commission was not In existence. With the creation of the commission and the formulation of its highly interesting and important plans, the situation has developed ma- terially “Because of such development, some changes in the structure of my bill now seem desirable. Such changes do not affect the fundamental purposes | of the bill, but rather have to do with | questions of method and procedure, In | informal conferences, we have been | able to agree entirely as to the amend- ments desired. “These amendments would place the title to lands acquired itn the State oi | Maryland and make entirely definite the control of the Maryland Park and Planning Commission over their de- velopment and administration, in ac- cordance with plans approved by the National Capital Park and Planning | Commission. “The amendments proposed also put the Federal contribution in a form that will greatly facilitate the work | of the Maryland commission acqulir- | ing “he areas desired. The bill is now | pending before the Senate committee | of the District of Columbia and, of | cours¢, the decision as to what amend- | ments shall be made, if any, to the | bill, rests with that committee in the | Senate. I feel very hopeful that these | | amendments will meet with the ap- proval of the Senate committee when | opportunity is given for presentation to them.” Dreyfus Verdict Expected Today i ek ah REY Bi a0 Grand Jury Will Subscribe| to Accident Theory, | Is Belief. A verdict by the grand jury after its investigation of the death last October 20 of Mrs. Aurelia Fischer Dreyfus, beautiful young divorcee, who fell or was pushed from a bal- | cony at the conclusion of a dance at the Potomac Boat Club, is ex- pected today.

According to her family, Mrs. Drey- fus is said to have told her mother and ‘sisters later that she was forcea by Edmund J. McBrien, New York broker. to swear falsely to an alibi for Albert E.

As Mr. Hoover completes his first year as President there is a disposition to use the year’s record and the present situation as a vardstick with which to measure his whole administration and the prospect of a second term. No more misleading yardstick cou'd he devised. The year’s events and the present situation give no_ indication whatever of what is to be. The tariff | controversy is regarded some quar- ters as damaging to Mr. Hoover. But there is no proof that he has _ lost ground with the people on this account. Public criticism is directed against Con- gress, and particularly the Senate, rather than against Mr. Hoover. But it is too early to form a judg- ment on the political consequences of the tariff controversy. A_ bill may emerge that will be acceptable to the President and the people.

The project is being slowly advanced, however: public sentiment is being formed and ex- plored, and it seems that sooner or later all the communications services of the country will be placed under the regulation of a commission. In the meantime the Radio Commission _has a large field of activity and an unusual opportunity for service. The regulation of | radio has been, in general, effective. Broad- | cast reception today is far superior to that of the period before the radio act was passed. There is ample room for improvement, how- ever, and it is to be hoped that the commis- sion will continue its good work in building up a national radio system. REGULATION OF POWER.

The desire of Mr. to bring about a reduction in naval armament and naval expenses is ap- proved. If the outcome of the London conference should be disappointing the public will in all probability perceive that the excessive demands of foreign powers prevented the desired agree- ment. A breakdown at London would probably give rise to a demand for a navy adequate to American require- ments, without regard to foreign pro- grams; and if Mr. Hoover should there- upon advocate such a Navy the net re- sult of the diplomatic skirmish would be beneficial to him.

Another woman sat beside a bed and watched her child die. “Don’t take her away,” she prayed. ‘‘She’s all I have left.” But death came, as it must to all, and the woman cried bitterly: “There is no God!

And since those laws, of superhuman origin, include the natural and “ethical’’ laws that man must obey to fare well, both duty and éommon sense urge him to obey them. When logic affirms the superhuman origin of the universe, it as- sumes a miracle beyond all understanding. And since the laws that guide the universe still function, it is ob- vious that the power from which they came has not grown less. Thus reason establishes the possibility of other miracles, for if God could create a world from nothing and has not lost His power, He could still move heaven and earth at His pleasure. Is prayer answered? I do not know. ‘But this I do know: That a power capable of creating the universe could perform any lesser miracle; and if God does not answer prayer, it is not because He lacks the power, but because He does not will to answer. Why should prayers for life be answered, and all thus saved from death, if man is an immortal soul and death but an incident?

«OW ARMY BIRTHDAY Woviet Republics Warned to __ Be Prepared to Repel . “Jealous Invaders.” WORLD IS FOE. BELIEF _ Moscow, U.S. S. R., Feb. 28 (A.P.). Coincident with celebration today of the twelfth anniversary of the found- ing of the Red army, Soviet news- papers and political leaders renewed th¢g Joud cry of “war.” They appealed to the country to be on guard against the menace from iniperialistic powers which are pictured as jealous of the Sovyiet’s economic and industrial progress. Communist authorities here appear to entertain genuine fear that the Soviet’s European neighbors intend, in, concert, to inaugurate either eco~- nomic measures against their govern- ment, or a direct military attack. This war scare has become immeasurably intensified by the present campaign abroad against the Soviet government for its attitude respecting religion. “All the forces of reaction through- out the world are mobilized against the Soviet Union, which is going full speed ahead toward socialism,” de- claves Izvestia in a flaming front- page.editorial. “‘The Pope, the Arch- bishop of Canterbury, the French po- lice, the English die-hards, Socialists, Fascists, foreign counterfeiters of So- viet. money and the German bour- geosie have united into only holy union to launch new bandit attacks upon our country. Dancing on Powder, Claim, »“But the rulers of capitalistic Eu- rope forget they are’ dancing the ‘can- can’ on a barrel of powder. We will remain firm and calm, watching this dance of dying capitalism. In our country all workers and peasants are edénvinced of the final results of the struggle between Bolshevism and cap- itelism. .They know our government stands in defense of peace.. They want peace themselves, but if the enemy directs his’ guns on the land of the prole- tartan dictatorship, each worker and Peasant will consider it an honor to participate in the victorious marches of the Red army in order to destroy the class enemy.” -Pravda says the present anti-Soviet campaign abroad is unprecendented in fte fury, hatred, extent and forma, and is the precursor of an armed at- tack’ by the capitalistic states. ' Be Ready for Invasion, Warning. Playing to the same tune of war, K. E. Voroshiloff, who displaced Leon Trotzky as head of the Red army, warns the country that the Red army must ever be ready to repel foreign invasion. He calls attention to the fact that foreign armies, including the American, have grown enormously in recent years. “The United States now has 155 heavy machine guns and 792 small Prachine guns,” he says, ‘“‘whereas in 1624 it had only 24 heavy machine euns. The American Army now has JA large field guns, whereas in 1913 it*only had 24. “The air forces of aH countries have steadily grown. France has 2,000 air- planes as compared with 1,550 in 1924.

To Deposed Ruler Amanullah, Af- ¢ghan King, to Interview Mustapha Kemal. Istanbul, Feb. 23 (A.P.).—Turkish Officials today confirmed a report that Amanullah, deposed King of Afghanis- tan, would arrive here from Venice tenight, and would start for Angora finmediately to interview President Mustapha Kemal. He will remain at Angora for some time as the guest of the Turkish government, which has put the villa of a deputy in Parlia- ment at his disposal. The deposed king is expected to re- turn to Istanbul later to join the family of his wife, Suriya. A strong sentiment is said to be showing in Afghanistan favoring his return. Former King Amanullah fled from Afghan- istan after the throne was seized by Bacha Sakao, formerly known as “the water boy of the north.” He sailed for Europe from Bombay last June 22.-. Later the usurper was ousted by Nadir, Kahn, Amanullah's uncle, who acceptéd the royal wer and caused the” execution of Bacha Sakao. Amanullah has persistently said he hoped some time. to return to Afghanistan and live as a private citizen. Nadir Khan has been re- pofted seriously ill. Steamers in Collision _ Off Uruguayan Coast s Montevideo, Feb. 23 (A.P.).—The British liner Vauban, bound from New-York to Buenos Aires, was in colHsion early today with the 400- ton Uruguayan coastal steamer Batitu near this port. The crew of the’ Batitu was saved. The steamer Batitu, which was in collision with the liner Vauban, was owned by a Uruguayan company. She was built in 1889.

All the commodities in this class are bulky in proportion to their value. Actuall shoes would not seem to belong in this class at all, and certainly not to the same extent as brick and pig iron. It sO happens, however, that the shoe industry is not as closely or- ganized as cement, for illustration. All the cement manufacturers were eagerly behind the move to take cement off the free list. It made no difference to the mills in the inter- ior, for the freight rates on cement from tidewater to any point west of the Alleganies, or east of the Rockies, would amount to more than the sell- ing price of cement.

By CARTER FIELD CTUALLY the iist is rather long | It Politics | For example, the road commission of North Carolina became convinced that the bidding to supply it with cement was by agreement among the com- panies. To punish them and show that there was real competition, the com- mission bought more than 250,000 bar- rels of Belgian cement. The purchas- ing agent of the commission tells the writer that the State only saved $20.- 000 on all this, of which $10,000 is in litigation. He also admitted that the cotton growers of North Carolina did not enthuse over the idea of this ce- ment being packed in jute sacks, but it certainly taught a lesson to the ce- ment makers, he declared, and added that he would oppose a tariff vigor- ously. D companies, eager to have a 300- mile haul, induced the city council to prohibit the use of im- ported cement on public work. The City of Norfolk has. done the same thing, not for a railroad, but to en- courage a local plant. So has the State of Virginia, but the City of Richmond has bought ‘mported ce- ment for the same reasons as actuated the road commission of North Caro- lina. Senator Sackett, of Kentucky, now Ambassador to Germany, but who was beginning to insurge on the tariff just before he was “promoted,” told the writer he believed this question should be handled the way Savannah has handled it, rather than by putting on a tariff which would displease the entire interior of the country. Actually, there is no such searching an acid test of the whole tariff theory as this “seacoast bloc’’ thought. The producets and the consumers of the commodity in each such case are in almost the same community, certainly in the same State. In North Carolina and Richmond they turn one way, and in Norfolk and Savannah they turn the other. It amounts to local self determination on the tariff. (Copyright, 1930.)

Philadelphia, Feb. 23 (A.P.).—Re- ligious figures, believed to have be- longed to a race which inhabited Ur of the Chaldees before the flood, and the copper figure of Rim-sin, a Su- merian King who lived about 1900 B. C., have been unearthed by the joint expedition of the University of Penn- sylvania Museum afid the British Mu- seum, The remains of a prehistoric factory also were discovered, Detaila of the discoveries were con- tained In a report from C. Leon Wool- ley, field director of the, expedition, made public tonight by the univer- sity museum. Mr. Woolley said the diggers had reached a depth of 56 feet, “which, on a conservative estimate, we date at 3200 B. C., and, outstripping calcula- tions in centuries, we have to deal with the very beginnings of man’s settlement here in the River Valley.” “One discovery deserves to be sig- nalized,” Mr. Woolley added. “Two inscribed clay foundation cones lying against the ruins of a brick wall led us to start the clearing of the build- ing, and almost at once there came to light in the wall’s thickness the small brick-built foundation box in which stood still undisturbed the copper figure of the king hearing on his head the basket of mortar, and before his feet the stone model brick inacribed with the dedication of the bullding. “It was a temple of Enki, the water god, and ita restoration by Rim-sin, King of Larsa in 1900 B. C., whose statuette we had found, gave ite title to the ninth year of his reign.” Below the 42-foot level Mr. Wool- ley said the diggers discovered many graves, In three of these were found “painted clay figurines of women grotesquely modeled on an archaic convertion, too delicate to be dolls; and one of a pointed bird with out- spread wings must he connected with the religion of the race which inhab- ited Ur before the flood.” ‘Wales Loses Shot At Huge Elephant Prinee Travels 100 Miles on Foot in Trailing Prospective Bag. Nairobi, Kenya Colony British East Africa, Feb. 23 (A.P.) —The Prince of Wales has been robbed by bad luck of a chance to shoot at a big Dull elephant after traveling.nearly 100 miles on foot in search of him, and finally getting within 40 yards of the animal, The prince’s misfortune was reveal- ed by Capt. D. G. Finch-Hatton, fa- mous hunter, who accompanied the prince’s party on an expedition into the African jungles, whence they re- turned yesterday. He said the ele- phant got scent of the porters just as Wales was preparing to shoot, and quickly crashed away through the jungle and got out of range. He de- scribed the animal as a big beast with tusks that must have weighed 100 pounds each. Capt. Pinch-Hatton said the prince was greatly disappointed, but heeding the old heunter’s saying, “One hun- dred miles—one elephant,” hopes to bag his first tusker soon. Near Kasi- gau, however, the prince killed a fine buffalo with the first shot. He is looking the picture of health, and impressed every one with his walkin prowess and endurance.

The per capita wealth of the country was $3,000. The report showed that the 1928 wealth was about $40,000,000,000 gcreater than that of 1922, when the most ftecent census estimate was made. In 1912 the census es- timate was 186,300,000,000, while ten years later it was 320,800,000,- 000, “Considering the amounts for 1912 and 1928 In terms of dollars of equal purchasing power, so as to eliminate the differences tn price of the prewar and post- war periods the purpose of comparison,” the report said, “the nominal increase of 93.3 per cent during the sixteen-year period, 1912-1928, becomes a real increase of 37 per cent.” levels for nationalist, however, declared for ab- solute independence, declaring the League of Nations, Kellogg pact and world court were sufficient protec; | tion.

Rugged strength is an important feature of the improved Ford chassis. Many parts are of new design. For example, the front axle, which is a chrome-alloy forging, is nearly twice as strong as formerly. The front spring — is heavier, with wider leaves. Front radius-rod is heavier, and king-pins, thrust bearings and wheel bearings are larger. The rear construction is also improved. It has a spiral bevel gear of special Ford truck design, with straddle-mounted pinion. The housing is of exceptionally strong construction. The axle shafts are heavier than for- merly, and because of the three-quarter floating type of axle construction, they serve only to turn the wheels, without carrying any of the weight of truck or load. : | A feature of the improved Ford truck is the new 4-speed transmission, which provides an unusually flexible range of speed and power. At ready control of the driver is abundant power for moving capacity loads, and ample speed for efficient service where time saved is an important factor. Brakes on the front wheels have been enlarged to the same size as those on the rear wheels, providing increased braking area and a high degree of safety. Brakes are of the mechanical type, internal expanding, and all are fully enclosed. Controls have been redesigned, and operate with minimum effort. 2 The four-cylinder engine of the Ford truck develops 40 horse-power at moderate speed. This means that nearly its full power becomes available without the need for excessive speed. Especially important to the reliability of the engine is the simplicity of the electrical, ignition, cooling, lubrication and fuel systems. * Other chassis features, many of which are unusual in a truck of such low price, are the cantilever rear springs, which reduce unsprung weight and lessen rebound; the torque-tube drive, which relieves rear springs of all but their normal function of absorbing shocks, and the large-sized opening provided in the transmission for power take-off mounting. Dual rear wheels are available at small additional cost. Balloon tires of one size are used throughout, with the dual equipment, so that all six wheels and tires are in- terchangeable all around. Only one spare wheel and tire need be carried. You can inspect the improved Ford truck, today, at the showroom of your Ford dealer.

“Weakness of Commodity Prices Is Cause of Much Concern. QUTPUT OF STEEL RISES New York, Feb. 23 (A.P.).—Business in the aggregate continued its grad- ual but irregular recovery last week, with the warmer weather providing a stimulus to the movement of spring merchandise and building materials. The commodity price structure re- mained an outstanding sore spot, par- ticularly the wheat and cotton mar- kets, which tumbled to new low levels for the season. The break in wheat was precipitated by failure of negotia- tions for the export of Canadian wheat in return for imports of British coal, aggravated by continued keen competition from Argentine and Rus- sian sources in the European mar- kets. Cotton futures have reached levels about 25 per cent below a year ago, reflecting slack trade buying and weakness in the Bombay market, re- sulting in part from the depression in silver prices. The hide markets con- tinued to sag. Heavy industry continued to gain, particularly steel mill production, which reached about 82 per cent of capacity, compared to 79 per cent the previous week and less than 50 per cent at the low point of the recession in. December. Both finished and crude steel prices held steady and steel scrap in the Chicago market was firmer. It was notable, however, that some mills reported recessions, while others gained. Crude steel production Was said to be running from 5 to 10 per cent ahead of finishing mill out- put, probably indicating the piling up of stocks in expectation of spring de- mands. Car Firms Await Developments, Manufacturers of farm implements and machinery Were fairly active. Au- tomobile manufacturers, on the whole, were cautious in speeding up produc- tion, pending a clearer view of sales conditions. In nonferrous metals de- mand for copper, brass and lead was & little more active. Zinc and tin were dull and prices eased. A note- worthy report regarding sales of Bab- bit metal, regarded as a semibarome- ter of industrial activity, came from the National Lead Co., which stated that sales for the first half of the month were about 45 per cent below the like period of last year. The textile markets showed a little picking up in finished materials for spring, but unfinished. cottons were quiet, reflecting the break in raw cot- ton prices, and woolens and worsteds were dull... American Woolen reduced + prices on certain lines for next fall. . The petroleum industry remained un- settled by further reductions in crude and gasoline prices. Business Reports Unimpressive. Various statistical surveys making their appearance were not particularly favcrable, although they related largely to what may have been earlier stages of the business recovery. Freight car loadings for the first week of. February showed a moderate de- cline from the last week of January. ,Current merchan shipments are -. believed to have undergone consider- ‘able- improvement, while the move- “ymént of coal has slackened on appear- ance of warmer weather. ...F, W. Dodge Corporation's building “Teont¥act statistics for the week ended February 14 showed an almost negligi- ble gain from the previous week, but current building operations have un- ._doubtedly been stimulated by better _ weather. The Department of Labor’s j lower last {Wall Street Brief] New York, Feb. 23 (A.P.).—The most impressive improvement in business and industry reported leat month was undoubtedly that of the steel industry, says the current lasue of the Guaranty Survey, economic publication of the Guaranty Trust Co. Information recéived during the month is characterized as “somewhat contradictory, but on the whole. favorable.” The review adds that “in some directions the bright promise of Jan- uary has not been entirely borne out, but in others the progress made has even exceeded expectations.” General Motors Corporation reports that sales of cars. to dealers during January decreased slightly from 95,441, the figure for January, 1929, to 04,468, while sales to consumers increased from 73.989 to 74,167. These figures covered operations in the United States only. The corpora- tion also announced that total sales to dealers in Canada and overseas sales, amountéd to 106,509, compared with 127,580 for the corresponding month a year ago. Included among the new security offerings to be made this week is an issue of 48.900 shares of class “A” no par value common stock of the Mid-West State Utilities Co. to be offered Tuesday. The $20,000,000 Detroit plant of the Gulf States Steel Corporation will be completed and in operation hy the latter part of August or early in September, says eorge R. Fink, president of the National Steel Cor- poration, of which the Gulf States Co. is a subsidiary. The average price of crude petro- leum in ten producing fields was week at $1.464 a barrel compared with $1.542 in the previous week and $1.668 in the corresponding er & year , States the Oil, aint and Drug porter. Proxies Are Sent Fox Stockholders Group Plans to Exercise Votes on Refinancing -Plan March 5. New York, Feb. 23 (N.Y.W.NS.).— Although the first request was made only four days ago, “very large num- bers” of proxies from holders of class A Fox Film stock are being received by the Fox Film stockholders com- mittee headed by Morton F. Stern, of J. 8. Bache & Co., it was announced today. The committee will exercise these proxies at, the stockholders’ meeting March 5 at which it will be decided whether the refinancing plan offered by a’banking syndicate com of Lehman Bros., Bancamerica - Blair Corporation and Dillon, Read & Co. | will be accepted or rejected. In making the announcement the committee, through its counsel, Em- ory R. Buckner, also made public a second letter it has sent to the 9,100 stockholders reiterating its request to be permitted to represent them. As- serting that “you are voting on the corporate life of your company and for the preservation of your invest- ment,” the committee urges— the shareholders to “vote your stock as your best thought dictates, but be sure to vote your stock”... wholesale price index for January was the lowest. in eight years, ahd its pay roll index indicated a decline of 5.4 per cent from December, although there is believed to have been some improvement since late in the month. up or down? stocks ? major crops?

S. Shares Are Only Ones to Advance Much as Trading Sags. NEW FINANCING SLUMPS New York, Feb. 23 (A.P.).—Trading in bonds is still confined to a nar- row rut, out of which ‘the market seems able to extract itself for brief periods, only to slip back again. dustrials, rails and utilities showed virtually no net change at the end of last week, which had five trading days. There were minor fluctuations from Monday to Friday, but the com- posite price of 30 bonds stood at 98.7 on the latter day. as compared with 98.6 at the first of the week. The rails were unchanged at 1049, which figure is about midway between this group’s high and low for 1930. United States Government securi- ties made a rather important advance. apparently in expectation of easier money rates. Supply and demand in high grade corporation bonds was wel) equalized, with inquiry perhaps a trie more than sufficient to absorb offerings. But the market as a whole continued to lack depth and breadth. One favorable factor affecting listed bond transactions last week was the decline in new offerings. The total was 866,452,000, sharply less than the $150,465,000 floated in the preceding week. This decrease gave the market opportunity to take in some of the slack caused by the heavy volume of hew financing since January 1. Convertibles made a broad bid for favor in the early sessions of the week and. some of the daily turnovers in the more active issues were suggestive of the busy days which share privi- lege bonds enjoyed last summer when they constituted almost the entire market. American Telephone 44s were the leaders, climbing to the new 1930 high of 160 last Tuesday, when they traded to the extent of $5,200,000, dar value. Foreign bonds were rather irregular. French Republic obligations were less active than in the preceding fortnight, but the 744s managed to hold close to 121, or about 2 points below their record high of 123, established early this month. Dealers have not given up hope of a strong market, but they have been forced to revise their predictions as to when it will develop. Some circles appear reconciled to an improvement “later in the year.” | i | pune PROVES INDEFINITE Lack of Definite Business News for Spring Holds Trading Down. AVIATION SHARES RALLY.

Public utilities again attracted the most attention with activity stimu- lated by a revival of merger rumors, but such recent leaders as American Superpower, Electric Bond & Share, Midwest Utilities ‘and United Light & Power A closed 1 to 2'4 points net lower. American Gas & Electric and Sierra Pacific Electric were among the few to show substantial net gains, the last-named reaching a new high for the year. Aviation shares, which Have been rather sluggish for months, witnessed | a flurry of buying on what appeared to be organized support for that group in expectation of good spring business. The few motor stocks listed were.reactionary due to the absence of any outside demand, pending more definite information on the trend of | spring sales and profits. Several of trading and holding shares reached the highest levels since the November break during the last week, but the gains were largely wiped out by profit-taking. Many of these issues are still selling below the break-up value computed on the basis of year-end balance sheets, and the recent sharp rise added materially to the market value of their security holdings. Oils dragged along their low levels of the year as a result of the further increase in crude oil production and additional gasoline and crude price cuts, but they showed signs of strength as the week closed. The long awaited merger of the Standard Oil of New York and Vacuum Oil Companies was announced after the | market closed on Friday.

The others passed and the contract was defeated, the dummy proving to be of little as- sistance. The Declarer’s partner called for my comment upon the bid, expecting that I would criticize it severely, and was somewhat shocked when I stated that it was perfectly sound and that a pass would have n unsound. I pointed out that. the bid was war- ranted as the hand contained three suré high-card tricks and a chance of making one low-card trick. A few moments later there was an- other commotion at the table and I was called over again. This time the previous critic had held: C87 He had bid one Spade, his ‘tah overcalling with No Trump. The partner’s hand was: Once again the critic rose in his wrath to condemn the No Trump; and when his own Spade was criti- | cized he quoted my decision that a bid should be made with four prob- contained at least five sure tricks had said that a bid must be based upon at least two high-card tricks and two other probable tricks. His hand was worth five tricks, with Spades the trump; but not a trick for any other declaration. . Bidding originally with a long weak suit is apt to result disastrously when the partner shifts to No Trump or some other suit, or when he doubles an adverse bid. It is all right to bid such suits after a partner has bid be- cause a secondary bid does not guar- antee high cards, but shows length in the suit named. The player with seven Spades made a second and even more inexcusable error when he permitted his partner's No Trump to stand; he should have rebid his Spades, although that would not have wiped out the misinforma- tion given by his first bid. There might be a freak suit of such length that it should be bid with = BRIDGERS, ATTENTION! _ Mr. Work has prepared a spien- did 48-page booklet entitled “Play- ing Problems,” which presents eighteen hands, the complete auec- tion and contract bidding, for each hand with the reasons for each bid, the answers to every question and the reasons for such answers in complete detail, all written in Mr. Work’s clear and interesting style.

WASHINGTON: MONDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1930. SHARKEY PICKED TO KNOCKOUT SCOTT THURSDAY FIGHT TICKET | SALES NEED STAMPEDE By WESTBROOK PEGLER IAMI, Fla., Feb. 23.—The cus- tomers who are infesting this this place in great numbers at present are manifesting extreme diffidence in the fa of their gold- *t®n opportunity to buy $27.50 tick- ; ‘ets for the impending program of prize fights under the auspices of the Madison Square Garden Corpo- ration. I report this shpness or ap- “athy of the paying trade in no spirit of malicious. exultation, notwith- , Standing my ‘conviction that prize fighters, and particularly heavy- weights, should be paid on the same basis as common labor, with no pay for the clinches or intermissions, the , failure of this promotion might be ‘ ‘ ' ‘ interpreted to mean that the cus- tomers were not interested in heavy- weight prize fights in Miami. In that event, I might be assigned to remain at home among the snow- drifts next winter and my social es- pirations, which already have car- ried me into some of the lower haunts of the upper classes in Palm Beach as @ modest beginning, would ‘ be thwarted abruptly. There are even more paying cus- ; tomers hereabouts this year than there were last year, and they seem ' quiet willing to pay for everything . but prize-fight tickets at $27.50. They are patronizing hotels which , Gharge $30 a day for a room and res- taurants where it is ‘possible to ‘spend $7.50 for a simple breakfast, and impossible to spend much less, . and are patronizing the horse and ‘ : dog tracks and the halls of chance. ut they are not patronizing the box office of the Madison Square Corpo- pation in the half-basement arcade , of the McAllister Hotel on the bay front, where the boys sit behind the ‘ wickets, eager to serve. *.

Dooley Mitchell Lone D. C. Netman Left in Singles Play. Special to The Washington Post. ALTIMORE, Feb. 23. — Dooly B Mitchell, Washington’s ranking No. 2 player, remains the only District netman in the Maryland in- door championship being played on the indoor courts at the Fifth Regi- ment Armory here. Mitchell ad- vanced to the semifinals today after nosing out Frank Shore, District junior champion, by record-breaking scores, 6—2, 3—6, 1 1 In the biggest upset of the in- door season, Alex Keiles defeated Bob Considine, holder of the title for the last two years, after dropping the first set to the Washingtonian. Considine started off wit hsome un- beatable tennis and garnered the first set with the loss of but one game. Here the Baltimorean braced and warded off the District man throughout the rest of the long match. Considine Loses Yet Wins More Games. Considine, whose play this win- ter has caused the experts to scratch their heads, was at his very best through most of the match. Keiles hit hard al lthe way and deserved to win. By an odd freak of scoring Considine won more games than Keiles, the scores being 1—6, 8—6, 4. The Mitchell-Shore encounter soon developed into a serving battle. Neither could handle the other’s ter- rific delivery and the result was the enlarged last set. Mitchell finally re- turned a series of Shore’s bullet-like serves to capture the thirtieth game. Mitchell next meets Billy Jacobs, natoinal junior indoor champion, while Keiles will match shots with Ed LaFleur. Stam-eYomans Defeated In Doubles. Keiles, paired with Shapiro, cofi- tinued his streak by eliminating Colin Stam and Clyde Yeomans, of Washington, in a first round doubles match.

Murphy, a lightweight, fought out of his class most of the time last season but gained a notable knockout victory over Norris, of Western Mary- land, and pushed Hall, of Navy, for the decision in the welterweight division. Georgetown, with Murphy back, hopes to present its stror%est front the current campaign when it it meets Western Maryland at West- minster on March 8. There is a chance that Sam Cordovano also will return to the Blue and Gray for that match. Return of Cordovan Would Be Welcomed. Cordovano has gone to New York for a short visit with Lou Little and the Columbia University football staff, with whom he will serve regularly starting next September as line coach. Upon his return, Georgetown will be considerably strengthened in the heavyweight class. ne ee ee Bright Zagreous Wins Auteuil Chase | Auteuil, Frand, Feb. 23 (AP).— Bright Zagreous, owned by the Greek shipowner, AmbDtatielos, redeemcd himself for five defeats on the Riviera when he won tne Clermont Tomerre Steeplechase at 3 miles for all ages here today.

They are leaning to Pennsylvania principally because of the presence on Lawson Robertson’s squad of big Barney Berlinger. This strapping youth, they predict, will score heay- ily for the Red and Blue in four events, even surpassing his enviable feat of 1929 when he led the indi- vidual scorers of the meet with 9% points. But the wise boys, while keenly mindful of Berlinger’s potential point-winning ability, are convinced that the performances of LaMoine Boyle, Bill McKniff, Bill Newkirk, Fred Steiner, Jesse Montgomery and Roland Ritchie in four events will gain for the Quaker City school the decisive margin of victory. Georgetown Team Rated as Contender. Georgetown, whether or not Karl Wildermuth competes, will be a con- tender, and strong opposition also should be expected from Harvard and New York University, say the prog- nosticators. Georgetown, with Wilder- muth, would, of course, be much more dangerous to Penn than with- out him, as he probably represents about 7 points in the 70-yard dash and broad jump. Pennsylvania's team, strongest that Robertson has whipped together since 1924 when the Red and Blue last won the 1. C. 4-A crown, should score in nine of the eleven events on the pro- gram, according to the views of the experts. Berlinger is picked to win the pole valut. and win second in the shot and high jump. He is rated about fourth in the broad jump. Boyle, who did 24 feet, 7 7-16 inches in the outdoor championships last spring, is favored to win the broad jump title. Sol Furth, of New York U., won the title last winter and is picked to take second this year. McKniff May Press Hickey In Mile. Steiner should gain a second or third for Penn in the 35-pound weight throw, while Newkirk is ex- pected to do the same in the high jump. McKEniff is favored to provide the strongest opposition for Joe Hickey, mile champion, and Ritchie is given a fine chance of grabbing third place in the two mile, which already is being handed to Paul Rekers, sensational Penn State run- ner. | two-mile relay team. Bates Georgetown are conceded better chances of winning the two-mile re- lay. Penn's one-mile team has done 3:28, which may be good enough to gain a place. The only event in should be blanked is the 70-yard high hurdles. Furth, of N. Y .U;; Knoblock, of Pitt; Stollwerck, of Col- gate; Kjellstrom, of Georgetown, and Mardulier and Record of Harvard, are the timber toppers best liked by the experts. Sexton Given Chance at Point Honors. Fred Backer, who finished fifth for Penn in the 70-yard dash last win- ter, is on the scene again and finds himself among the probable place winners behind Jimmy Daley, of Holy Cross, the champion. Sexton is expected to push Berlinger for individual honors. The George- town all-around star is favored by many to take the high jump and shot iput itn addition to the 35-pound | weight throw, in which he is cham- ' pion, which Penn Montgomery and McKniff look good | _to the selectors as members of Penn's | and | /than they were EAGLES BEAT BROOKLYN CASEYS Clinches Game by 34-23 Score. bus Five could not stop dove Sweeney yesterday afternoon on the Silver Spring Armory floor and the Skinker Eagles romped off with a 34 to 23 victory. But for sweeney the invaders ovight have tarred hetter, Joe accounted for fifteen points, loop- ing seven baskets, a majority which were injected timely tervals, Feber, Bennie and Sweeney put the Eagles well in command at the ster, but Crane and Dugan dropped a few lengthy shots late in the first half which brought the Caseys within two points of the Eagles at intermission. | The count at half tme was 16 to 14. Crane Stars for Knights. Crane, who gave a clever verform- jance throughout for the Caseys, put his team on even terms with the Eagles soon after the second half cot under way. His third basket evencd the count at 19 to 19. It was at this stage that Sweeney opened his sensa- tional scoring spree, netting the ball four times within a few minutes. Two of hjs baskets were due entirely to his own elusive dodging. Sweeney's wholesale scoring took much of the fight out of the Caseys and they never threatened thereafter Manager Bernie Peacock, of the Eagles announced yesterday that his team will entertain champions of Montreal at Spring next Sunday afternoon.

Sharkey looks too tough to mg@ffor Phil Scott, heavyweight champiog of England; Campolo improved enough to get away with Risko, Loughran too classy for Charles, Maloney too good for Bouguillon and Bianci too experi- enced for Daring. | Of these, the hardest to pick, ap- | parently, is the affair between Risko and Campolo. Johnny, the India rubber baker boy of Cleveland, is a rough and ready customer, and he has the faculty of upsetting the,dope at all times, whether you pick Aim to win or lose. The battle between Phil Scott and Jack Sharkey, the American heavy- weight champion, is the big feature on the card, naturally, although Jt may or may not supply the mé@st entertainment for the customers next Thursday night. The fight is by way of being the “semifinal” for the heavy- weight championship of the world, by the grace of the New York State Boxing Commission. The winner. is pledged to meet Max Schmeéling, of Germany, in what will be the final bout to establish the ultimate wip- ner’s title to the championship Ya- cated by Gene Tunney. English Hope in | Good Shape. Now, while I think that Sharkey | will win, and by a knockout, I also be- | lieve that Phil Scott has a royal | chance to spring one of those big | surprises. Never have I seen the Eng- | lish heavyweight champion in as good physical condition as he is today. Never has he exhibited the cock-sure- ness and confidence before an fm- today Scott tells me that he will not Only win this fight with Sharkey, but that he will knock out the American champion in the bargain. Neither Sharkey nor Scott has shown himself to be the great knock- out artist in the past, although Sharkey, of late, has developed a right-hand wallop that is capable of stopping any heavyweight. Sharkey, always a clever boxer, has been show- ing a devastating execution with that right hand, and Scott, in his work- outs, has shown a wide opening that appears to invite a smack of tihs | kind. Notably, has he looked like a | “sucker for the right” in his spar- rings with little Charley Hahn, a mié- dleweight who has him all at sea when he starts rushing in pel] mell and slinging wild rights with aban- don. However, Scott is a straight punch- er, and a straight puncher is just the kind that would have a pretty good chance of stabbing Mr. Sharkey off center when he starts coming in. Partners Get Under Defense. The Scott left jab works to per- fection at times, when he is facing @ tall fellow, but his sparring partners have had no difficulty in getting un- der that outstretched left hand and clouting him amidships. Sharkey is a weaver—an elusive | target. He has a sort of half turn | and full shift that would spell i tains for Scott if Phil should do the actual battle what he has had a tendency to do in practice—stick out | that left and then shoot over Bis i right. | Sharkey will enter the ring at about | 196 pounds, he tells me, and i ,date he has preserved a mighty eagd | condition. Scott will weigh in 2 neighborhood of 200, he says, ‘at least his manager, Jimmy Johnston says for him, and he will tower offer Sharkey at least an inch or two. = Both seem to have .perfected their wind. Scott especially amazes me by his calm breathing at the finish of his sparring, whether in the heat of the Florida sun or the chill of one @f | these postshower breezes, for he has | worked out in both. Sharkey, satisfied with ais con tion, has about completed his ipte sive training,’*and from now on wu he is ready to enter the ring will, fine himself to polishing up his Bb ts [omg fistic contest that he shows | ing, his timing and his general curacy. j Apparent Gob Expects K.

He has shown t boxing skill in the past—at but not at any time has he sho any better boxing ability than ran almost invariably exhibits.

Five other games will be play- ed out of town by local teams, In the home contests, Maryland will entertain St. John’s, of Annapo- lis, tomorrow night at College Park; Georgetown will act as host to West- ern Maryland Thursday night at the Hilltop, and George Washington will engage Virginia Medical Friday night at the H Street Court. The only remaining local game after this week is the second Catholic- George Washington clash to be held on Friday, March 6, in the G. W. Gymnasium. When Georgetown meets Columbia at New York on March 7 the campaign for District collegians will have been finished. Catholic University Five, which has dropped fifteen straight games, will play four games this week on the road. On Wednesday night the Cardi- nals will tackle Johns Hopkins in a return contest at Baltimore and then will move to New York City for three games with the Seventh Regiment National Guards, Fordham University and Crescent A. C., in that order. OCAL college basket ball, rapidly Maryland at Atlanta. Maryland, on Friday, will be in At- lanta, Ga., ready for the opening of the Southern Conference champion- Ship tournament. American Uni- versity will travel to Annapolis the same night to oppose St. John’s. On Saturday night Georgetown will face Johns Hopkins in a return at Balti- more. St. John’s has turned in some not- able performances this season, but has not been consistent. It is doubt- ful, judging from the records, that the Johnnies can defeat Maryland, but they should give American a hard battle. Maryland is enjoying one of its most successful basket ball sea- sons and has won 15 of its 20 games to date. Georgetown will have an opportu- nity Thursday night to gain revenge for the football defeat inflicted by Western Maryland last fall. The Green Terror court team is nothing like the formidoble outfit that came down from Westminster in football togs that memarable October after- noon. George Washington hopes to make it two straight from Virginia Medical. Earlier in the season the Colonials downed the Richmond team, 29 to 25. John’s Athletes To Report for Track Nearing the completion of a suc- cessful year on the court, St. John’s will turn its thoughts to track when it issues uniforms to its candidates tomorrow afternoon. A previous call for prospects revealed the fact that between 35 and 40 boys intended to start daily drills under Coach Byrne this week. With Bruce Rogerton as the only cadet of whom any ability is known, Byrne nevertheless is confident of turning.-out a commendable team in his first season at the Vermont Ave- nue institution. The cadets have al- ready planned to enter the Catholic University and Central “C’” Club meets, while it is thought that a dual meet with Eastern High will be ar- | ranged. AGUA CALIENTE ENTRIES.

EW YORK, Feb. 23 (A.P.).—The grand climax of the indoor track season, so far as the col- lege athletes are concerned, comes this week in the ninth annual indoor championships of the Intercollegiate Association of Amateur Athletes of America, to be held Saturday night at the 102d Engineers Armory, New York, Club runners and some of the fans may be .more interested in the na- tional championships, but to the col- lege men the intercollegiates, with their dozen thrilling events, are the one big thing of the season. And @ith the aid of the fast board track of the armory, the intercollegiates produce many of the season’s best races. Six champions who will defend the titles they won in 1929 are looking for hard battles. Sol Furth, chunky New York University captain, seems to have as tight a hold on his broad- jump crown as any, although he has been specializing in the hurdle racing this season. Furth will meet several good jumpers, but none is regarded as outstanding. He also is favored in the 70-yard high hurdles. Only yesterday at the Union College meet in 89 seconds, one- tenth behind John Collier’s 1929 win- ning mark, besides running the 7@- yard low hurdles in world’s record time of 8 seconds flat. Daley Faces Hard Task to Hold Sprint Crown. Jimmy Daley, of Holy Cross, recent conqueror of George Simpson, the Ohio State wizard, will have a hard race to hold his 70-yard sprint crown with all his rivals in last year’s final running again and a number of other stars in the field. The 2-mile race, Hagen, of Columbia, will try to re- peat, is expected to produce one of the best races of the program and possibly a new intercollegiate record. Paul Rekers, Penn State’s sensation, has run the distance in 9:26 1-5 and 9:27 already this season against a record of 9:3 4-5 made by Tibbets of Harvard. Hagen ran third in a handicap 2-miles in the union meet yesterday, but gave away 50 yards to the win- ner, Dunbar, of Colgate. Ben Hedges, of Princeton, Olympic high jumper, must beat another for- mer winner, John Moody, of Dart- mouth, who tied for first place in 1926 and has been out of college since then. Leo Sexton, Georgetown in which Joe all-around performer, will meet two men who placed last year, Weis, of Cornell, and Steiner, of Penn, in the 35-pound weight event. Holy Cross Favored to Score In Mile Relay. Joe Hickey, of N. Y. U., the other individual defending title holder, will meet only Montgomery of Penn, among those who placed in 1929. New York University has two mem- bers of its winning 2-mile relay team back, but needs another pair of at least the same caliber to repeat its victory. Holy Cross is favored to take Dartmouth’s mile relay team since its speedy quartet has made the best times of the indoor sea- son. With Sabin Carr, last of Yale’s aces, gone, Barney Berlinger, of Penn, may at last capture the pole vault title, but he will have to do well to beat the Harvard dark horse, Oscar Sutermeister, who has vaulted 13 feet 4 inches this year. Berlinger also is one of the favo- rites in the struggle for the shot put championship. Squad of 65 Gonzaga Gridmen Will Report With 65 boys having signified their intention of participating in the spring grid training of Gonzaga High School, Coach Orrell Mitcrell will take his 1930 prospects on the field for the first time tomorrow. Twelve men graduating from the °’29 eleven leave the Purple in a sadly weakened condition, but Mitchell is hopeful of turning owt another capable team with the abundance of material on hand. Assisting Mitehell will be two regu- lars of last year’s team in Larry Fruend and Danny Holbrook. Freund will take charge of coaching the back field prospects while Holbrook will handle the linemen. McGinley, another for- mer Gonzaga player, will take com- plete charge of the ends. Chocolate Outpoints Burrone in 10 Rounds Havana, Cuba, Feb. 23 (A.P.).—Kid Chocolate, Cuban featherweight, out- pointed Vic Burrone, of New York, in a ten-round bout here today. Choco- late floored Burrone six times and once, in the eighth round, the New Yorker was saved only by the bell. Chocolate weighed 12414; Burrone, 125. | SIX COLLEGE TEAMS IN LEAGUE First Real Eastern College Loop Since 1886 Formed. IX major college baseball teams— Yale, Princeton, Pennsylvania, Columbia, Cornell and. Dart- mouth—are at practice preparing for the first real league campaign by rep- resentative Eastern universities since 1886, the last year the American Col- lege Baseball Association functioned, The present college league resulted from negotiations which began in 1923 and which led, in 1925, to the organization of the Quadrangle Cup League by Columbia, Pennsylvania, Cornell and Dartmouth. Yale and Princeton cast their lot with the Quadrangle Cup group at & meeting held in the Columbia Uni- versity Club in New York last April 6, but it was found impracticable to launch the new circuit until 1930. Independent schedules of the six members, however, called for 29 of the 30 games a round-robin league chart would have provided, and the league was considered last year to be playing an “informal” season. No second Yale-Dartmouth game was provided in the independent sched- ules and none could be arranged. In additien, one Columbia-Yale game and one Columbia-Cornell match suc- cumbed to rain, leaving 27 cham ship games for the six teams. Dartmouth Showed Up Best Last Season. Dartmouth made the best showing in the informal campaign, winning seven of its nine games against league members. Pennsylvania, with seven victories and three defeats, was segond, and Princeton, with six games won and four lost, was third. The second division was made up of Cor- nell, Yale and Columbia. On early season form, it seems likely that Pennsylvania and Dartmouth again will fight for honors this year with the first official championship at stake. At the Columbia Club meeting last year, Ernest B. Cozens, graduate man- ager of athletics at Pennsylvania, was elected president of the league, and Ellwood W. Kemp, jr., of Columbia, was chosen secretary-treasurer. Mr. Cozens died suddenly in Philadelphia two months later, however, and Romeyn Bertfy, of Cornell, subse- quently was named to succeed him.

THE WwW ASHINGTON | POST: ES MONDAY. FEBRUARY D4, 1930. ASHINGTON SOCCER CLUB TRIUMPHS IN UPSE — BritishUnited Team Bows, 3 to O Winners Go : Tie for League Lead With Concords. Silver Spring, Irish Booters Score in Other Games. By RICHARD 8. TENNYSON. ASHINGTON SOCCER CLUB pulled the surprise of the lo- cal soccer season yesterday when it downed the strong British United Eleven 3 to 0 on the Friend- ship Field before a large audience. Few thought before the match that the Washington kickers had a chance with the British and it is doabtful if any expeeted them to win by such a decisive score. The victory puts the W. S. C. in a tie with Concord for the lead in the Washington Soccer League. Each club now has tive points. Gaelic-Americans also upset the dope when they stopped the strong Rockville Club, 3 to 1, on the Monu- ment Grounds in a cup tie match. The Irish kickers have won but few victories this season and their con- quest in the local association cup tilt yesterday was a distinct surprise. Silver Spring Extended by D. C. Kickers. Silver Spring met a tartar in the D. C. Kickers, much to its surprise, winning by a margin of only 1 to 0. The Kickers have ambled along this season with few successes and the Maryland booters anticipated a fleld day at the expense of their opponents ot yesterday. Rosedale forfeited to Marlboro in a Capital City League game. An unusual feature of the Wash- ington Soccer Club’s victory over the Uniteds was the fact that, in the first half, the victors had the ball in the Englishmen’s territory not more then five times but nevertheless, due to accurate booting of Dalling, succeeded in scoring twice. Frequently the British stormed W. S. C. uprights, but on each océa- gion Jack Watts, who only recently consented to play his regular position at goal, saved with dexterity. Jack lived up to all the nice things that his teammates have said about him as a goalie; and it is expected that he will remain at this important post for the remainder of the season. United Stage Threat in Closing Minutes. In the closing minutes of the game the Uniteds made desperate efforts to sneak a goal the alert Watts, but the latter’s agility stopped all efforts, The winners introduced a new player of merit in Jim Blanche, a re- cent arrival from Scotland. He is a younger brother of Tom Blanche, who has starred on local teams for the last three seasons. Young Blanche an inside right ‘but played’ on ‘the’ wing yesterday and attracted at- tention with his skull in manipulat- t the ball. e Capital City League will hold an important meeting in room 2, Dis- trict Building, tonight at 8 o'clock, and tomorrow night the Washington Boccer League will meet at 8 o'clock fn the same office.

Bowen and Hogan fought a bitter toe-to-toe battle, in which Bowen was given the decision by the judges. In the main go Billy Swartz handily defeated Billy Strickler, both fighting at 132 pounds, over a 6-round route. Sammy Burns, of Walter Reed, got the decision over Paul Bruén in the 167-pound class on a foul in the sec- ond round. It was-a merry battle up to the time the referee called a halt. Reds Barney got a 6-round decision over Fred Shaffer in the 167-pound class. Several other minor -exhibi- tion wrestling and boxing matches were held for the pleasure of the Rockville boosters, who all agreed that the evening had been a success. FORT MYER WINS TWO.

Skeletons, Graduates Of Backyard Court, Seek A.A.U. Honors OUR years ago a group of neigh- borhood boys started playing basket ball in Cassassa’s back yard on Irving street. Two har- rel hoops, nailed to trees at opposite ends of the yard, furnished an im- proviso court. They didn’t confine their activities to Cassassa’s back yard for long. They were soon sport- ing uniforms in the Boys Club Basket Ball League as the Senators. Two of the original members of the team have performed with high gchool teams since. For three years the team has been known as the Boys Club Senators. This season the team jumped into un- limited ranks and four of the original backyard stars, augmitfited by the additional of several promising young- —_ will make a bid for the District A. A.

The team sports a new name this year—the Skeletons. It will ‘be one of the youngest unlimited combinations in action as the oldest player is just 19 years of age Pete Loftus, Charley and Bunnie Cassasa and Emile Farhood are the surviving members of the group that first turned the Cassasa boys back yard into a basket ball court. Loftus played with Business High ir the recent scholastic series and Farhood gained recognition at Tech last year. Fred Finley, anether member of the present Business Team, and Johnny Monk, who has been a star at George- town Prep this season are registered with the Skeletons. Milton Dickhout has been.playing a prominent part in the Skeleton victories this season. Made Bid for Title In 1927. Sporting theirf new name, the Skel- ton players return to A. A. U. cham- pionship competition, having made their lone title hid in 1927 in the 130-pound class as the Boys Club Senators. They were defeated in the second round by the Boys Club Flashes. The Skeletons ran up a string of fourteen consecutive victories this season before losing by a two-point margin to the Crescents. They in- clude among their victims the Wal- lace Memorial, St. Gabriel’s, Pet- worth, Clover A. C., Company A and Calvary Reserve Teams.

HE same fighting characteristics which have branded Tom Peck as one of the hardest playing forwards in local basket ball circles for several seasons promise to carry him to victory in his long, slow battle to overcome the ravages of double pneumonia, which has held | him aloof from his favorite pastime throughout the current court cam- gaining prominence as a member of the Park View Five, which has from time to tim2 battled under the names, Woodlothians, Washing- ton Grays, United Typewriter Grays and now Woltz Photographers, Peck has embellished his mame on the roster of Washington's great basket bal] players. Peck Makes Long Fight. Since early season, Peck has been fighting against the disease which has kept him on the brink of death at times, but the dogged “never- say-die” spirit that he had displayed on the court has encbled him to stave off the “foe” much as he st@- ped rivals in outstanding basket b xhibitions here in recent years. morrow night, ‘and his services | confined the Woltz Pho-' tographer and Jewish Community Center unlimited teams will battle at | the headline attraction of a program | the Silver Spring armory in planned to benefit the ill star of the former team.

The former gained the verdict by a last minute rally, 23 to 20. The Dixie Pig Team also turned back the Berwyn A. C. Five, 35 to 14, in a Prince Georges County League contest. Company F enjoyed a 10 to 8 lead at the close of the first half, but the Dixie Pigs knotted the count soon after the resumption of hostilities. The lead alternated throughout the final period until Sherman broke the 20-20 deadlock with a foul shot and Blackie Adair clinched the verdict with a floor goal. Rufus Vincent and Sherman shared individual honors. Berwyn proved an easy victim for the Dixie Pigs, who held their foes scoreless for the first half; 20 to 0.

While the Lions were upsetting Syracuse in a nonleague game here last night, Cornell invaded Philadel- phia and whipped the highly favored Quakers of Penn, 27 to 24, in the most amazing upset of the league season. Penn’s downfall automatically lift- ed Columbia into the lead with four victories in five starts and dropped the Quakers into second place with four wins and two losses. At the same time Cornell moved up to fourth place, a step behind Yale, which outpointed Princeton at New Haven, 30 to 24. Cornell led most of the way in the fray at Philadelphia. Weakened by the loss through ineligibility of Ull- rich and McNiff, Penn never got go- ing, although the home five did manage to tie the score late in the game at 23-all. Here Bessmer, Cor- nell guard, tossed in a field goa] and two fouls to give the Ithacans their third league victory in seven starts. The game at New Haven was en- livened by a fistic exchange between Albie Booth, of Yale, and Ed Witt- mer, of Princeton, both football! stars. After a few blows had been landed, with a bloody nose for Booth as the principal damage, the boys shook hands and dropped fighting in favor of more basket ball.

By TED VOSBURGH. (Associated Press.) HILE Habe Muth poon-poons the presidential pay of $75.000 a year, the highest salaried individual in the well-known game of basket ball manages to worry along On a mere $9,000 a season for his activities on the American pro- league court. Nat Holman, who has set something of a record by drawing his pay froin three different clubs in the course of the season, is the plutocrat of the basket-tossing business with his wage of $2,000 a month for a four and one-half month season. Add to this the sum the busy Hol- man draws down for coaching the City College of New York Qintet and the great Jewish star of the old Cel- tics does pretty well except by com- parison with what Babe Ruth and a| few other big shots of the national game condescend to grumble at. Incidentally, Holman has his hands full doubling in playing and coach- ing since he fjoined the Chicago Bruins and about the most hs can hope to do in the way of tutoring Cc. C. N. Y¥. is to hustie East to sce most of the games. Holman Only 33 Years Old. Holman has been in the public eye so long that it seems he must be much older than he actually is. As a matter of fact Holman is only 33 and Dave Kerr, the still youthful manager of the world’s champion Cleveland Rosenblums, well remem- bers when Nat broke in. “Back Kerr recalled, “I was playing center in the season of 1916-17.” on the Jaspers, of Philadelphia, when | somebody told Marty Friedman there | was a young fellow on a settlement team in town that we oughf to look | over. “Friedman had Holman drop in for a tryout. He was good but needed seasoning and did not receive a con- tract. Right after the war be blicse- sOmed Out as one of the great stars of the game.” Holman’s Salary Strains Cubs. It was largely the strain of paying Holman and others their fat salaries that forced the original Celtics to throw up the sponge early in the present American League campaign and the jinx seemed to follow Hol- man to Syracuse. But John J. O’Brien, president of the league, points out that other considerations had more to do with the collapse of the Syracuse Club, among them being the fact that Syracuse University would not allow its football coach-elect to play and that Holman and Meehan and Schiffer insisted on commuting to their homes in New York. The Syracuse management felt that in view of the money being paid these stars the players should recip- rocate by living in the town at least NAT HOLMAN. during the season instead of merely dropping in for the game and taking the night train ouat. It appears that a pro athlete can be of value as @ walking advertisement off the court as well as a great performer when on it. Next year Syracuse hopes to re- gain itis franchise and sign up some Players who will take root. Banks, Smallest Player, Leads Scorers. The little fellows of basket ball who may have been discouraged by the eminence of “Stretch” Murphy, “Tiny” Hearn and others of their towering al- titude, can find some comfort in the fact that the best besket-shooter in the American League is only 5 feet 2 SINGLE GAME TO DECIDE TITLE Potomac B. C., Woltz Teams to Clash Thursday. SINGLE game will determine the winner of the Community Center Basket Ball League championship Thursday night st Tech High School. The Potomac Boat Club and Woltz Photographer Teams fn- ished the regular season last week on even terms. The rival managers agreed to play one game, the winner to claim the title. The Dixie Pi and Walters Whirlwinds, deadloc for third honors, will also meet in 8 single game to decide which shall be placed third. This program, involving four of the leading team contenders for the Dis-. trict A. A. U. unlimited champion- ship, promises to be one of the best of the current campaign. In their previous engagement, the Fotminn Boatmen took the measure of the Woltz tossers, who were somewhat de- moralized by the loss of several stars at the time, but the Walters Whirl- winds stopped the previously unde- of the season. The Wolts Team has been bolstered in recent weeks promises plenty of trouble. The Dixie Pig and Whirlwind Fives were about the most improved teams in the league in the final stages of the race. A spirited battle is prom- ised between these two teams. The standings of the teams at the close of the regular schedule follows: W.L.Pc Poto.B.C.... Woltz Pho.. Mt.Vernon.. Basketball Shots TED VOSBURGH Mt N high school, college and now the professional game, few basket ball players have packed more drama into their careers than Howle Boller- man, the raw-boned center of the Pat- erson (N. J.) entry in the American pro league. Bollerman's 6-feet-6-inch <—. structure—he is just the same height as Primo Carnera—first came into public prominence on February 6, 1925, when he and four other sky- scrapers from ane (N. J.) High Schoo] brought to an end the Passaic (N. J.) High School winning inches tall—Dave Banks, of Fort Wayne. He may be built close to the | ground but as a rival mixed up with him fistically, remarks, “the little fellow has an awful lot of muscle.’ Extra Day Needed to Decide Dixie College Boxing Titles Special to The Washington Post. HARLOTTESVILLE, Va., Feb. 23. The 4-to-3 victory of Virginia's boxing team over the scrappers from the University of Pennsylvania, who blanked Syracuse, 7 to 0, and lost to the Navy by one bout, has ratsed the hopes of Virginia undergraduates as to the chances of the Cavaliers in the Southern Conference boxing tour- nament, to be staged here this week- end, Especially gratifying was the superb showing of M. A. LaGigiia, of Nor- folk, Va., who substituted for Jack Fishburne in the featherweight divi- sion. This light-hafred youngster dis- played a various assortment of wares to win the verdict of the judges over Shadle, one of the stars of the Quaker squad, who one week ago had scored a notable victory over Fitz- gerald, of the Navy. LaGiglia carried the fight to the Penn entry and and two years. Comeback of Capt. Rainey Helps Virginia. Another eource of comfort wes the comeback of Capt. Bob Reiney, of the | Virginia squad. The Oklahoma youth, who hag been trying to train down as a featherweight all season, , has found the task a difficult one. |Last night he stepped out as a light- weight, and in every round had the better of Glass, the Penn enry.

He Iit- erally bombarded his opponent in the third round, and as the gong sound- ed Referee Breckman was on the verge of stopping the bout to save the Quaker from a knockout. James G. Driver, Virginia's athletic director and chairman of the South- ern Conference committee on boxing, announced today that, with twelve teams entered in the tournament to be held here this week-end, it will be necéssary to extend the fourth annual ring meeting of these teams over three days. A telegraphic poll of the commit- tee members decided that the pre- liminary bouts should start on Fri- day, February 28, with the quarter- finals and semifinals on Saturday The final matches will eome Monday night, March 3. Tulane, Florida, N. C. U. Tourney Choices. Clemson, Duke, North Carolina, Louisiana State, Sewanee, Tulane, Virginia, Virginia Institute, Virginia Polytech- Florida, Georgia, entered teams of seven men each. /Making 27 bouts necessary to decide individual championships in all seven | weights. Tulane, Florida and North Csro- lina, the defending champions, are generally regarded as favorites. The Tar Heels have lost one match to the ‘Gators, who in turn were defeated by Tulane. The New Orleans boxers have not been defeated. DONIE BATS ’EM OUT TO SOX % A & M, % 4 7 ¢ ee ene . ei a player, who got | streak, which stands as the greatest | in basket ball. Passaic’s wonder teams, tutored in the short pass by that master mentor, Ernest A. Blood, had woven @ string of 159 victories stretching beck over a period of six seasons, when Bollerman & Co. finely turned the scale. “The Passaic players’ speed availed them nothing.” said a story of the game. “Bollerman, Hackensack’s 6- foot-6-inch center, spoiled their team«- work by tipping the ball either in front or behind him to one of men at almost every jump, easily out- playing the Passaic center.” Losers Leave Basket Ball Court In Tears. It was one of the moet dramatic teammates collapsed and the losers left the court in tears. From high school Bollerman went te Colgate, where last year he captained a team that was rated as among the half-dozen best in the East. Feeling his loss, the present Colgate team has dropped gbout as Many games as the Bollerman-ied quintet did im an entire campaign. «¢ Unlike many of the college stara, Bollerman fitted into professional bas- ket ball as though made to order.

Directed by Roy del Ruth. Reviewed Saturday night by W. A. Whitney. “The Hottentot” has sprouted wings and, like Pegasus, has taken to. the air! And with ,E@ward Everett Hor- ton as the rider, need more be said? Following the same general idea and developed in much the same way as “The Hottentot,” “The Aviator” brings Mr. Horton back to the screen in a more ludicrous presentation than his earlier picture, made all the more screaming because of the utter lack of any sane degree of plausibility in the continuity. But comedies need no foundation in possibility, and so Mr. Horton be- comes a well-known author with a violent aversion to anything and everything farther off the ground than the top of the kitchen table. In an altruistic moment he agrees to allow his name to be attached to a story of aviation during the war and the complications that follow, due largely to his fiancee’s misinterpretation, fur- nish plenty of material for a howling and spectacular comedy. Mr. Horton, of course, runs away with the picture, and his antics, pain- fully real to him, keep the audience in continual laughter, His natural seriousness of mien, his apparent awkwardness in certain situations, and especially, the naturalness of his action, all combine to make him the leading comedian of the talking screen. Opposite Mr. Horton is Patsy Rr*h Miller, who furnishes a very excel- merging his own feelings and taking to the air. Johnny Arthur, as the valet, furnishes his share of the laughs but Lee Moran, as the ambi- tious press agent, ranks second only to Mr. Horton. Armand Kaliz, as Maj. Jules Gaillord, bona fide war ace; Edward Martindel, as the publisher, and Kewpie Morgan, as the airplane mechanic, have well developed parts. The entire production is excellently staged. Special mention is due Frank Clarke, the aviator, whose aerial stunts are excellently done and add the thrills which accentuate the com- edy situations. For subsidiaries, Jack Osterman is Universal.

[COLUMBIA | “ANNA CHRISTIE.” Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer all-dialogue version of Eugene O'Neill's play, starring Greta Garbo, sup- ported by Charles Bickford, George Ma- rion and Marie Dreés oa by Frances Marion and directed by Clarence Brown. Reviewed Saturday afternoon. By NELSON B. BELL Here is the audible proof that of all the foreign players who have gained stardom on the silent screen, Greta Garbo has least to fear from the microphones. Her voice is ideally at- tuned to the personality with which her pantomimic roles have imbued her in the minds of a majority of her admirers, and her Swedish accent —at least in so far as her present role is concerned—is negligible, if not positively nil. Once, as I recall it, the word “job” becomes “yob,” but in the large view the Garbo Znglish is above cavil. As for the all-talking adaptation of “Anna Christie.” it is so vastly su- perior to the earlier silent picture that they seem scarcely to have been derived from the same play. The then excellent version in which Blanche Sweet appeared four or five years ago was primarily an action-drama, with Anna's ‘persecution, and worse—-while farmed out to distant relatives in Minnesota by a father anxious to shield her from the blasting infilu- ences of the New York water front— an important part of the visualized narrative. Miss Garbo’s vehicle is a psychological drama from which all of the Minnesota sequences have been omitted, together.with the bar- room brawls and other manifestations -f the virility of men of the sea that characterized Miss Sweet’s production. The net results, in point of plausi- bility and easy conviction, are all in favor of the present play. At best, however, the story is sordid and not the prettiest that has found its way to the silver sheet. But O'Neill is like that, and this good O'Neill. In many minds, including my own, Greta Garbo’s performance in the title role will be looked upon as her best. It is realistic, forceful, dra- matically argumentative and utterly believable. My only criticism would be that in attempting a needless re- finement of the O’Neéeill mood, all the “damns” in the Garbo lines have been diluted into “darns” and all the “hells” into “blazes,” with an obvi- ous smothering of the high fires of drama and passion. The star’s portrayal, it should be added, is not the only one upon which the picture need rely for dis- tinction. Geoftge Marion, in the role of Chris Gustafson, the father, adds the fruits of long and honorable stage service to his interpretation of the part he also played in the silent film, and Marie Dressler, as Marthy Owen, a sodden Magdalen of the quays, offers a study of a dilapidzted siren with no less than inspired skill. Matching ability, line for line and bit for bit, with all the others, is Charlies Bickford in the character of Matt Burke, sailor man tossed up by an angry sea to become the first honest suitor Anna has ever known. Playing the part of the Irishman not only with a rich Irish brogue, but also with an infallible Irish idiom, Bickford takes on the stature of an actor of the first line. The recording is flawless and the foggy waterfront background, if that is not too much of a paradox, is ad- mirably created and sustained by Clarence Brown, the director. The supplemental of principal im- portance is a talkie-comedy, “Sky Boy,” in which Harry Langdon ap- pears under the Hal Roach banner, supported by Thelma Todd, and proves himself funnier than his ve- hicle.

RIALTO “UNDERTOW.” A Universal presenta- tion of a story by Wilbur Daniel Steele, adapted for the screen by Winifred Reeve, featuring Mary Nolan, supported by Johnny Mack Brown and Robert Ellis. Directed by Harry A. Pollard. Reviewed Saturday evening by W. A. Whitney. What is probably the last stand for motion picture locales has fallen, and the lonely lighthouse on a stern and rockbound coast now takes its place with the other multitudinous phases of maritime narration. Such a locale does not lend itself to scenes of magnificence, nor is any such needed for the development of this fast-moving and tense drama of human beings, placed—partly from choice, partly from personal animosity —in what are probably the most lim- ited confines a free man can be put. As the wife of a lighthouse keeper gone blind, Mary Nolan gives a most realistic impersonation of a woman torn between her innate desire for action, comradeship with her fellow beings and, in short, life and her ac- knowledged duty and love for her husband and daughter. In this pic- ture, as in “Shanghai Lady,” Miss Nolan demonstrates her ability as an emotional actress, giving to her part a touch of realism without any trace of maudlin overacting. Johnny Mack Brown carries the part of the husband admirably, a role which requires a maximum amount of repression in the characterization of a man blinded and thus made use- less for following his beloved calling. The third pivotal character, the sin- ister influence in this not-so-figura- tive sea of loneliness, is portrayed by Robert Ellis, as the jilted lover and ‘lighthouse inspector, whose persistent hatred results in a powerful denoue- ment. Director Harry A. Pollard has woven into this story an admirable degree of spontaneous action which, together with laudable auricular tech- nique, results in a gripping tale, not the least stirring portion of which is the fight between husband and lover at the climacteric moment. Supporting the feature picture are a group of attractions that are both diversified and entertaining. The ace position is, perhaps, best awarded to Oswald, the Rabbit’s screaming melo- dramatic burlesque on “Show Boat.” Sunny Jim appears as “Sister's Pest,” a rousing comedy of infantile repartee that has a genuine ring. “Glorious Vamps,” a United Artists’ novelty short subject, is a song and dance depiction of female menaces from Eve to Carmen. The Tiffany color symphony “Song of the Island” pre- sents several Hawaiian songs and na- tive dances and features Winona Love and Ferdinand Schumann-Heink. A release of the Universal News is in- cluded.

Adaptation and dia- logue by Bradley King; direction by Frank Lloyd. Reviewed Saturday night. This, I should say, is the most pre- tentious vehicle that has been afford- ed Barthelmess since his adoption of the all--talking picture adoption of the all-talking picture talents, by the way, have always im- pressed me—and still do—as prepon- derantly pantomimic, rather than vocal. To my mind, Barthelmess has never been so impressive in speech as he was in silence. That is still true, despite the many superiorities in acting, scenic investiture, direc- tion and recording that assert them- selves during the progress of this compelling drama of racial hatred and romance in strange combination. The story conceived by Mr. Beach ld4ys down a vigorous lesson in toler- ance by basing its action on racial prejudices, Individual] dislikes and the gsensitiveness of nature of the pivotal character in the play, Sam Lee, the son of an Oriental of wisdom and incalculable wealth. The yellow blood presumed to be flowing in the veins of Sam Lee served’ as an effec- tive bar to any considerable participa- tion in the social life of his white associates. In an effort to evade the humiliation constantly heaped upon him, Sam sails for Europe on a cattle boat, apparently the victim of a de- vastating inferiority complex. There he falls in love, only again to be spiritually crushed by a public flog- ging at the hands of his fiancee, who had jearned that he is a Chinaman. The death of Lee Ying, his father, leaves Sam Lee in ion of the broad power of his inherited millions, a loathing fer the white race and a baffling sense of futility and defeat. It will be no part of this review to disclose either the climax or the de- mouement of a work that seems, at times, to tread dangerous ground. In the role from which the title of the picture is derived it must be said_that Barthelmess is confronted with no light task. His portrayal must harmonize the ancient customs of his supposed race with the gay frivolities of modern American and European life in a manner so deft as to contrive a dual impression of the man, both aspects wholly charm- ing. Perhaps no other young actor could do it so well as Barthelmess. In the opposite role of Allana Wag- ner, Constance Bennett reveals a rich inheritance from a gifted father. By no means likeable a great deal of the time, she still is splendidly efficient. Araong those in supporting parts, E. Alyn Warren, as Lee Ying, is especially effective, and Anders Ran- dolf, the well-poised millionaire father of the spoiled and impetubdus Allana. Mildred Van Dorn, with a delightfully retrousse nose and an intermittent brogue; Frank Albertson, Claude King, Dorothy Mathews, in the much curtailed character of Alice Hart; Barbara Leonard and King Hou Chang are conspicuous in thé capable ensemble. The settings are gorgeous, Frank Lloyd's direction on a par with his best and the recording uniformly ex- cellent. @ne brief sequence is exe- cuted in natural colors and occa- sional baekground music is intro- duced, The Paramount Sound News, in which Gen.

N. B. B. j FOX . “THE LONE STAR RANGER.” A Fok talking-picturé from the story by Zane Gray, featuring George O’Brien, sup- rted by Sue Carol. Directed by A. F. rickson Reviéwed Saturday afternoon. by Mary Porter Russell. I Once you become adjusted to the fact that the first Zane Grey epic to be transferred to the audible screen has no more intention of taking it- self seriously than had the hectic Western melodrama of an earlier era of popularity, you will find in it much that is diverting. It is the old wild and wooly movie at its r’aring- est, enhanced through modern pho- tographic technique and intensified through sound; a type of film that is for the time being, at least, a novelty. It is to be regretted that all view- ing it can not be changed temporari- ly into small boys. That would per- haps be the only way to appreciate its thrills to the full. Certainly, the degree of your enjoyment will depend upon how much of the spirit of the small] boy remains hidden beneath your exterior. Many seeing it at the performance reviewed appeared to have no need of the waving magic wand. Buck Duane is the hero, and a fine and sturdy lad he is, quick with the trigger, but never firing unless the other man draws first. When the captain of the Texas rangers offers him a pardon for a murder he com- mitted in self-defense, if he will join the rangers and break up a deadly gang of cattle rustlers, what do you think he does? Right. And when the Eastern beauty he has rescued from stage bandits turns out to be the niece of the chief rustler, do you think he lets love interfere with duty? No, he doesn't. But does he turn ir all the rustlers and shoot the one you nate and obtain clemency for the uncle, who isn’t really very mean, and recover from being shot himself, and marry the girl? Yes, yes, yes. Oh, it’s a beautiful story, and told ex- actly as you would expect. George O’Brien is well adapted to the role of Buck, and numerous skillfully ridden horses prove fasci- nating in their ceaseless action against a background that is at times majestic. Sue Coral is sat- isfactory as the girl, and Walter McGrail and Russell Sim are rather more than that in roles of next importance. The Fanchon and Marco idea, “Gardens,” features the Three Slate Brothers, a trio of tap dancers who will delight the hearts of those rev- eling in their particular type of terpsichorean art, and whose shadow selves, it is interesting to note, will be back again next week in “Happy Days.” ‘Cliff Nazarro scores a hit in a monologuing, piano-playing and singing act; Lee Hall and Charline Essley do a burlesque adagio num- ber, Vina Zolle sings in a pleasing soprano voice and Mae Packer con- tributes a dance of the classical va- riety.

The backstage play has gone min- strel to its advantage. — Whether or not the title of this one was chosen because it is an- other carbon copy, in theme and development, of the story already utilized in “The Dance of Life,” “Big Time,” “The Song of Love” and some others, the fact remains that in intrinsic value and the merit of its performance, it is worth a ma- jority of all the rest put together. I prefer to believe that “The Grand Parade” was so named because it signalizes a grand parede of person=- alities either entirely or compara- tively new to the talking, singing and dancing screen, Helen Twelvetrees, cast as the boarding house slavey who becomes the hired assistant and later the wife of Jack’ “Comeback” Kelly, minstrel tenor, who has succumbed to both drink and a burlesque blonde, finally finds opportunity to disclose the surprising range of emo- tional expression that has frequently been attributed to her but never re- fealed in the “bits” to which she has heretofore been assigned. should say that her strong resem- biance to Lillian Gish might easily prove a handicap rather than an as- set. Miss Twelvetrees need not now rely upon a facial likeness to some other competent actress to gain the recognition that her present role assuredly must bring her. And Fred Scott, recruited from the concert field to make his screen debut in this picture, also seems to hold the future securely captive within the timbre of his voice. He both acts and sings like a veteran. The menace from burlesque, whose company’s route too closely paraljiels that of the minstrel troupe, is pic- turesquely played and sung by Marie Astaire, new to these eyes, but said % be from vaudeville—to which I trust she may never return, ; Richard Carle, former star of mu- sical comedy, appears in his first talk- ing screen role of importance as Rand, in which “Comeback” Kelly is the star.

B. B. | PALACE .“THE SHIP FROM SHANGHAI.” Metro- Goldwyn-Mayer talking picture, feature ing Louis Wolheim, Conrad Nagel, Kay Johnson, Carmel Myers and Holmes Her- bert. Directed by Charles Brabin. Re- viewed Saturday night by C. Ransom, Although Conrad Nagel is accorded first place in the advertisements of this picture, the stellar order placing Louis Wolheim first is correct by the main title, and it is certainly true to the facts as thereafter revealed. This is Louis Wolhelm’s picture. The huge, ugly chap has had a long career of incidental successes on both stage and screen, and most movie fans have become well aware of the talent lurk- ing behind that bruiser map. Now for once he has full swing and makes the most of it. Wolhelm has the part of a mad steward who leads a mutiny on 8&8 private sailing yacht in a roaring melodrama of the mid-Pacific. Your reviewer, entering after the film had begun, watched for the opening title with interest to see if the director was Ella Cinders, but this was a mis- take. The only trouble Charies Bra- bin, the real director, seems to have had with his crew was in making them fight with any conviction. With the Pacific in time of storm, or what- ever waterworks he may have used in lieu of that ocean, he had no such difficulty. The storm scenes, whether real or synthetic, carry plenty of shudder. Just as well shown are the quieter beauties of sea and sky, the terrors of the thirsty waiting on the unmasted ship, and the agonies of the little band of passengers, sub- jected to the insulting domination of the vengeful steward and crew. The dialogue is more real, forceful and pointed than most stories of this class get along with, unfolding a study of the steward’s mental work- ings that is more interesting than credible. He has a against the world at large and especially against the aristocrats whom he serves with food and drink. Mastery is what he craves, and-he gains a taste of It. When the elderly Lady Daly coolly and correctly calls him a paranolac hé only grins. But her beautiful niece, after yielding to his advances to save her lover, succeeds in bring- ing home to him his own ugliness and madness, driving him to frenzy and suicide. This forcible, but un- likely, solution is worked out by Louis Wolheim with a powerful sincerity, and by Miss Kay Johnson with eoual earnestness but less assurance. Con- rad Nagel, as the lover, is condemned to play a rather futile figure. You keep hoping for him to find some heroic way out of the mess, but he never does.
